I've only had one cheater so far. His best accuracy before this game was 16 percent. He did this bizarre opening really quickly and then played on an even interval. Once he had promoted two queens he resigned. It was weird, but I guess he didn't want to be caught. He may have even seen it as practice of sorts.
The principle of finding and recognizing weak squares and weak pawns is huge. It applied when GM Naroditsky played 1300s and it applies when he plays 2000s. Love this series!
This video was instructive in that a computer can actually waste 10 moves in the opening, let the GM opponent fully develop and yet beat him eventually. That's just madness for a 1400 player to comprehend.
Daniel, thank you for your integrity and prudence, making this speedrun informative despite dishonesty by your opponent. Ironically, I suspect this speedrun segment will get a ton of views.

No quite opposite of that...it shows that even if you make horrible blunder just to not catch from anti ban system of chess.com and engine is showing -6 advantage than still you will lose if engine itself will play the rest of the game so the engine is never in trouble
@@kidisthing No, it doesn't show that. We are watching one example of a gm that is talking to a chat while calculating. First of all, this sample is far too small to conclude anything. Second of all, full force danya on his own would have won this, I have no doubt in my mind so would have any sufficiently good gm. But... but... in sacrificial positions, you have to play extremely accurately because every move matter (as dany says prepare slow, attack fast). If you are playing against a normal human, an innacuraccy might be ok because defending this is still very very complicated. But against an engine every move needs to be optimal. Daniel still blundered though.
For the love of me. I have no idea why would someone cheat. That rating number is just a number if it doesn't represent your true skill. And if you cheat, you know that you are not 2400 ELO. So you are just lying to yourself. And that is just sad.

The sport is better in the long-run, even if the userbase of these sites is pruned.
Although it should be noted that the vast majority of engine-users are much subtler -- this is the only kind of cheater whom Lichess/Chess.com say exists.
@@griffinbur1118 how could you know such a thing? Even just using the simple engine that comes pre-packaged with Windows you could beat most players without them even knowing that you were an engine.
Wait a minute. I’ve played people who start off playing horrible moves and I’m like “Man my position is just overwhelming better than theirs and they hung a piece. This is will be easy.” And I somehow end up not only losing but getting destroyed. I previously never suspected cheating because they played so poorly to start but when Danya said “I hate when they start like this because that usually means they’re going to suddenly play better.” I realized that that’s probably what was happening to me. I’ll never understand why people play just to cheat. What do they get out of it?
I think Danya picks the opponents for this so the guy would have to have a legit account for Danya to accept to play him, so it was prolly the first time he used an engine on the account. its crazy the lengths people will go for 5 minutes of attention and then no one gives a fuck about them, idk if they think people will be impressed but it just seems like a waste of your time.
You know you play against an engine when you make no bad moves but you find yourself in a position with not too many options and that is exactly what Daniel was having in that game which explains why for the first time you see him without a clear plan. It was educational though watching a GM against a bot .
This video makes me feel like I encountered a cheater the other day. I'm still a very new chess player, so I assumed my opponent was just toying with me in the beginning, then got serious and beat me, but it was suspiciously like Daniel's game. Either way it doesn't really matter to me much, but it is a bummer to encounter that type of thing.
At very low ratings that kind of thing is super common. Lots of decent chess players make a new account and steamroll low rated players to get to their actual rating. New accounts are a great way to try out crazy openings without sacrificing your rating. Plus some people get off on the kind of flexing that comes from beating up kindergarteners (think Anakin Skywalker)
@@trequor Yea, that's why I wasn't sure if it was a cheater or a good player. Either way it's kind of a dick move to do that to an amateur if you ask me.
especially with the recent boom in chess popularity i've seen a lot of chess related content but i gotta say for me personally this series is the most intriguing educational and fun to watch
Using Daniel principles (play slow moves, develop your pieces, grab space on the flanks etc) I literally toyed around with a 2100 on lichess, (I wasn’t able to convert a the critical moment but that is still a feat !)
If he opened like that, and continued to play badly, it wouldn't be cheating, then, would it? The opening alone isn't evidence of cheating, it's the fact he played 95% accuracy after the opening.
Levy Rozman doesn't know what innocent until proven guilty means. He calls nearly every random player who beats him a cheater, and then gets chess.com to ban them. The last time I saw him cry cheater on stream, he didn't even show the game analysis. I like the way Danya handles it.
It's such a rare virtue to have these days, but we need it more than ever. We should all follow his example when it comes to one's attitude towards a suspicious and accused person.
Maybe because they wanted points and it "makes" them look strong and it pleases them(cheaters). It also satisfies them to destroy players that can't beat by their own strength.
Exploiting things is fun. Getting away with something you're not supposed to be doing is a bit fun. Continuing to cheat after not getting caught seems natural. In a competitive game, there's at least a little bit of fun in beating someone. You also don't really have to pay the cost of risking failure. It's somewhat pornographic: simulating the benefit without putting in the effort for the actual thing.
Some people have the mentality that cheating is part of the game. The object is to win the chess game and if they do it by cheating they've simply outsmarted their opponent by doing so. Other people will justify it to themselves as "not really cheating". They'll justify using Stockfish as it was just showing them the move they were going to do. I mean they're so smart they were obviously going to think about that move. They didn't really need the computer.
@@Nnm26 No he is not. That would put him in competition with legit best typers in the world like Sean Wrona. I can believe that he can peak for a few seconds at that speed with easy text, but not hold an average for many many races.
It's his upbringing. Daniel may be Russian, but he is a sweet summer child of San Francisco's sunny shores. Stockfish is laid bare to the Siberian winter for weeks on end. It is hardened within the freezing kiln of true suffering.
I was disappointed to see speed run videos when I'd enjoyed the coaching videos so much. Then I watch a speed run video and realized I enjoyed it more than the coaching videos 😂.
Hmm just wondering, what would Stockfish think about GM moves like danya's , hikaru's or Magnus's moves? Would it rate the magnus moves as best or would it not understand about the 'human genius' ?
It would rate their accuracy high, it would think theyre playing good chess. Just not the 'optimal' moves the engine thinks are best all the time. Thats where even the best human players start to fall behind. Move after move of not the best move in difficult board states and the engine just gains an advantage move after move that the human players might not even realize. And then if you make one inaccurate move, engine crushes you completely. Dont even need to blunder, just an inaccurate move.
Mathematical calculation does not map out to human intuition at all, especially in terms of geometrical pattern recognition. Engines don't pursue geometrical plans. They just happen to spot the best moves on the board through finding the moves that yield the highest mathematical materialistic evaluation at a certain depth (amount of moves ahead that the engine sees). This becomes way harder to do for a human when the position is chaotic or not easy. Short story, engines would also find lots of mistakes and blunders in grandmaster moves. Engines just find less of them in grandmaster moves than they do for a 1000 elo player, because the basic *human* chess principles we built up over the decades (develop your pieces, castle, take advantage of holes, etc) that we built up over the years just so happen to not be egregious mathematical blunders most of the time.
@@odysseus1220 it was in 2000, and 1994 ibm or some other computer beat Kaspy in a blitz match and in 1997 beat him in classical. So they were strong enough in 2000
Yeah, it's unfortunate that cheaters is still a common problem in online chess, but I think it has to do with human psychology, for example, 1. Ego. Since chess is a complex game, there will be instances of players losing over and over, and this could create the illusion that players need to ''play perfectly'' so they used Stockfish to cheat instead, hoping no body would notice. 2. Players thought they could get away with this stuff on beginners and intermediate players, if they don't develop or practice their ''Chess detective'' skills, looking for second delays, weird moves, and analysis always showing 99.7 or above. 3. Players who cheated believed they could not win after losing over and over. 4. Some cheaters would brag or get impatient with players playing ''slow moves''. There was a video on GingerGM where he played a cheater, and this cheater was impatient with him, that he said, ''Dude, fast moves please, you play like a computer.'' 5. This happened when you talked about how a cheater also accused you of cheating, and this mentality might happened because they thought they're playing an engine, so they thought it's fair to use the engine to cheat as well. And sadly, I think it's kind of difficult to detect cheaters, because some won't rely on 3 or 5 second delays and would wait purposedly for a longer time to show that they're ''not cheating'' at all. Cheating is still common due to the psychological context surrounding the game of chess, and so, there's little we can do about it, except just report the cheaters and hope they go away.
Still learning from this awesome speed run. On the last game, why did the opponent resign with the queen move d4? What am I missing? Wouldn’t his next move take your queen?
Daniel, just curious - how do you know that your audience when answering your questions about what to do next -- don't look up chess engines. And you essentially are getting help from engines. Just curious
He doesn't ask the chat for help, he's done maybe 2 chat suggested moves right? Maybe they are engine moves but it's usually him asking chat what the best move is that he already knows x
His chat could be cheating, but I doubt that a cheater would gain much enjoyment from these lessons for long so if it's a problem I bet that it is sporadic. Ratings are refunded anyways so it's so harm to his opponents even if he "cheats" by accident. It's similar to when he coaches Charlie's games; it's normally against the chess.com rules to have help from anyone else, but exceptions are made for instructor-student situations and ratings are refunded.

It would rate their accuracy high, it would think theyre playing good chess. Just not the 'optimal' moves the engine thinks are best all the time. Thats where even the best human players start to fall behind. Move after move of not the best move in difficult board states and the engine just gains an advantage move after move that the human players might not even realize.
And then if you make one inaccurate move, engine crushes you completely. Dont even need to blunder, just an inaccurate move.
Mathematical calculation does not map out to human intuition at all, especially in terms of geometrical pattern recognition. Engines don't pursue geometrical plans. They just happen to spot the best moves on the board through finding the moves that yield the highest mathematical materialistic evaluation at a certain depth (amount of moves ahead that the engine sees). This becomes way harder to do for a human when the position is chaotic or not easy.
Short story, engines would also find lots of mistakes and blunders in grandmaster moves. Engines just find less of them in grandmaster moves than they do for a 1000 elo player, because the basic *human* chess principles we built up over the decades (develop your pieces, castle, take advantage of holes, etc) that we built up over the years just so happen to not be egregious mathematical blunders most of the time.
What do you do if you know somebody is cheating in a tournament?
Anyone notice that second game player was named vanya Hargreaves, a character from Umbrella Academy??
27:01 Ng5? Then maybe Nc2,Rc1 how is black winning there?
So he's moving his knight around to throw off the accuracy. Is that right?
Plot twist: It’s an infant alien that just learned how to play chess.
If this whole chess thing doesn't work out you could be one hell of a court typist
petition to put a Danya caricature in the Phoenix Wright DLC
danya you have a nice soul, i can see it cause i did tons of acid when i was a teenager
Had me in the first half.
Hahaha.
@@liculle just like the acid
jesus loves you
12:33 is that your computer burning cuz it's running stockfish?
14:30 rc2 is a such a bad ass move... 4000 elo
This is the same thing that happened with Nigel short , but some deluded people say it was Fischer
The king walk thing?
@@odysseus1220 yes
Nigel lost 8-0 (according to what I heard on agad's channel)
@@Qhsjahajw wasn’t that in the 90’s? Did they have engines?
@@odysseus1220 it was in 2000, and 1994 ibm or some other computer beat Kaspy in a blitz match and in 1997 beat him in classical. So they were strong enough in 2000
29:06 couldnt he just take ur Queen with his Queen here? why did he resign?
Knight to f3 forks the king and the queen, so he ends up up a clean knight from the sequence
Sensei you are great......happy to be your student
10:22 and he "thinks" in this position
4:01 😳
being called a cheater in fps games when youre legit is the best feeling ever
Does anybody know what is the name of that line in the kings indian fianchetto variation?
What chess GUI is Naroditsky using? Really interested in the evaluation he's showing with commentary from the app/engine.
Chessbase
Yeah, it's unfortunate that cheaters is still a common problem in online chess, but I think it has to do with human psychology, for example,
1. Ego. Since chess is a complex game, there will be instances of players losing over and over, and this could create the illusion that players need to ''play perfectly'' so they used Stockfish to cheat instead, hoping no body would notice.
2. Players thought they could get away with this stuff on beginners and intermediate players, if they don't develop or practice their ''Chess detective'' skills, looking for second delays, weird moves, and analysis always showing 99.7 or above.
3. Players who cheated believed they could not win after losing over and over.
4. Some cheaters would brag or get impatient with players playing ''slow moves''. There was a video on GingerGM where he played a cheater, and this cheater was impatient with him, that he said, ''Dude, fast moves please, you play like a computer.''
5. This happened when you talked about how a cheater also accused you of cheating, and this mentality might happened because they thought they're playing an engine, so they thought it's fair to use the engine to cheat as well.
And sadly, I think it's kind of difficult to detect cheaters, because some won't rely on 3 or 5 second delays and would wait purposedly for a longer time to show that they're ''not cheating'' at all. Cheating is still common due to the psychological context surrounding the game of chess, and so, there's little we can do about it, except just report the cheaters and hope they go away.
what keyboard is danya using?
On an unrelated note Danya type so fast like woah
Still learning from this awesome speed run. On the last game, why did the opponent resign with the queen move d4? What am I missing? Wouldn’t his next move take your queen?
Nf3+ forks the queen and black is up a knight
You would learn even more from this awesome speed run if you watched the entire video. He talks about that multiple times. ;)
Great instructional video
Daniel, just curious - how do you know that your audience when answering your questions about what to do next -- don't look up chess engines. And you essentially are getting help from engines. Just curious
He doesn't ask the chat for help, he's done maybe 2 chat suggested moves right? Maybe they are engine moves but it's usually him asking chat what the best move is that he already knows x
His chat could be cheating, but I doubt that a cheater would gain much enjoyment from these lessons for long so if it's a problem I bet that it is sporadic. Ratings are refunded anyways so it's so harm to his opponents even if he "cheats" by accident. It's similar to when he coaches Charlie's games; it's normally against the chess.com rules to have help from anyone else, but exceptions are made for instructor-student situations and ratings are refunded.
King’s Indian: 0:30, 19:39
Enjoying this technique!
This guy was Pooja's brother.
extremely underrated comment
this needs more likes
Maybe you should turn the sub alert sounds off
Cheater 2: electric boogaloo
me : Wow our sensei is really wise
our Sensei : 17:51
me : I'm sure he premoved that
3:47 by god its the Naroditsky Super Shitter!
Did Danya just speak in a Russian accent for a sec at 7:16? What was that?
I mean, he speaks Russian and he's family is Russian. He could've perfectly switched it up for a se
A kaspy Russian impersonation
After the bondclouds opening from Hikaru, the bondknight from Daniel Naroditsky !
I was there... It was the most disgusting thing in the history. JESUS WEPT

@@trequor lmao
Could you analyse some of your games against alireza Magnus penguins
Guys It’s pooja’s cousin.
(If you’ve seen Eric Hansen vs Cheaters)
is he related to Chris?
Believe it or not, in that critical e5 position, I was shocked how Rxd4 wasn't good. Then he checks the computer... :) I feel proud lol
