Danya is the GOAT when it comes to chess education fr
Educate this ratio 🤣
Ye da 🐐 no 🧢 headass
Uncontentsted, undisputed
@@Gabe-zm9vh sad
Nah, Levi is the 🐐
Very rare to see the opponents actually using their time in a rapid game. They played very well and while being outplayed they found some really nice tactics
Danya may be a 2600 FIDE, but he's an easy 3000 educator. Absolutely the GOAT 🐐
Over 9000 instructor
2600 FIDE is already crazy impressive.
@@legueu not that impressive. Average GM at best
@@mortalkombaty7960 Lmao, please. Average GM is 2500+
2600+ are super strong GMs & ofc 2700+ are the elites.
@@moiz9722 he is ranked like #165 or something in the world. That's very average. Is like #165 tennis player or#165 heavyweight boxer. Is very far
been watching loads of Gothem and Hikaru content but the educational concepts and commentary by Danya is on another level. Very nice setup, excellent explanations for all level players. Keep up the great work ... amazing videos
Cracking up at the Danya’s vocal instinct at 18:10
Fantastic video as usual!!
Hahaa I too realized that.I was like wth was that.I thought it was something else)
You have turned the chess into a scientific art! Your lessons are a masterpiece!
The point at 8:00 about always approaching the position from the perspective of somebody who has not seen it before is so poignant when it comes to educating. The constant awareness of what the intuitive move is and when/why it is not correct is so helpful, and is one of the many reasons why Danya is the GOAT educator.
I'm blown away time and time again by the fact how amazing teacher you are. Absolute treasure trove of information! Best wishes from Finland!
a3 is so sinisterly beautiful. That move alone just sold me on picking up this opening repertoire.
@@mikkkeyman 42:10
@@mikkkeyman Who is liking up this flat out wrong comment??
There is beauty in how you evaluate positions. Thank you for choosing to teach. Your explanations simplify the most complicated situations. There is pristine clarity combined with pure passion that transforms each lesson into a story with countless plot twists. You've truly given back to chess more joy than you could ever fathom, my good man. On behalf of all chess enthusiasts - your passion makes us want to be obsessed with this game ❤️. You legend.
P. S. If you ever come to India, the greatest honor of my life would be to play a friendly match with you.
Always stoked when one of these drops as I'm getting to bed. Best chess content out there. Thanks Danya!
18:08 The Yasser Seirawan moment
Loooollll !!!
It's almost like a twitch! Channeling the mind of Yasser in that moment.
I can watch each one of these videos multiple times. Every time I watch them I learn something new. Recently I started reading Silman's Amateurs Mind. These videos are living examples of ideas described in this book, explained in outstanding manner and Danya also elaborates on them giving us a nutritious cocktail of juicy information. The best educational content on YT.
Thank you so much -- these FREE lessons from a GM are AMAZINGLY educational 🤩
Thank you for still making these videos... and as often as you do! There is so much knowledge in them it is almost like getting coaching.
Coming home after a long day at work and chilling out to a Danya video is one of the highlights to my week. Keep them coming !!
Eyyy, I agree, fellow Greek sir
absolutely brilliant, thank you so much for the hard work. it really helped me to improve my chess.
I have to give huge thanks to binge watching these speedruns, I’m averaging almost 90% accuracy after a few weeks of seeing all of these great videos! Best chess teacher on TH-cam!
Very informative and great content as usual.
daniel, you are seriously the best teacher. I think the majority of the chess community is insanely grateful for your videos and speedruns. Thank you!!!
Simply the best educational chess channel on TH-cam... You should take note and look at this like a class ❤ thank you Danya so much you brought chess back to my life
26:14 "He shot down one balloon but there are others."
Talk about a topical line...
These opening introductions are amazing. Thank you Danya!
"shot down one balloon but there are others" lmao
so helpful already wow a game changer for me I think you've finally covered all the key ideas in the alapin opening with white!
Which book is it?
Awesome analysis! Thank you, Danya!!
Amazing commentary. TYVM!
49:11 Love that you point out this line. Marc Esserman recommends it too in his Morra book (in one of the declined lines (3. c3 d5), which transposes to this exact line. I blitzed out the line until Nb5 once against a 2000+ and the opponent was just shocked at seeing the move.
This might be one of the best speedrun videos Danya has put out so far
Very instructive, thank you!
Thanks danya great stuff as always!
Can't get enough of these vids they're great!
21:12
Danya: This was a genius move by our opponent!
Me: I just thought he developed his knight naturally.
Just shows the level between GMs and myself, a 1500 rated player on lichess lol
Daniel, please don’t stop making videos. You are my favorite instructor
I love these Alapin Variations so much. Studying the same book like Danya! I can really recommend it :)
Thanks for abundant information. I learned much. God bless always. Take care.
Playing in the Pro Chess League one day, next day puts out this absolute banger. Thank you for the videos! ❤
A-tier quality video this was, thanks Daniel
Good alapin overview covering a few main key lines
Danya gives us all a boat load of info and lines in the Alapin and is like "I hope that was sufficiently enlightening" like it was not thoroughly amazing commentary, he's a real gem.
I am amazed everyday that I can just watch his content for free on youtube. Been watching his speedruns for months now, and just played an OTB this past weekend and finished 4/5 (3 wins, 2 draws), and in games I found myself identifying TYPE 2 pieces from my opponents (which Danya mentions in every video - piece defended only by one piece), and that helped me calculate and analyze the board way better than my previous OTB tournaments.
This episode really has instructive lines in an opening I play. That being said I have to watch it about 10x to remember all this stuff.
on the subject of queens, it seems almost everyone has a rule of thumb regarding them. One of my favorites, from a strong Brazilian player was, if your opponent puts his queen on the k-side then you must follow him there, and if he moves his queen to the q-side then you must follow him there. GM Joel B once counseled me that you shouldn't inherently fear a queen trade in an attack, in fact if you feel a queen trade ends the attack then the attack was unsound.
Thank you so much for your content. I’ve reached 1800 in blitz, and been loving my progress, it hasn’t slowed down.
I really want to shoot a competition in 2023 and was wondering what ‘prep’ training looks like.
I’m only doing blitz so taking my time in a classical game gives me a lot anxiety, it’s going to be so new.
Any tips or resources you’d recommend?
You’re the best educator on TH-cam thank you so much ❤
Danya will go down in history as one of the most important chess figures in the modern era. His teachings are explained so well that even a beginner can comprehend, on top of that, he's also a strong GM. I'm thankful for this age of technology where these lessons will always be available to all, forever. I'm also thankful for the fact that Danya puts in so much effort and contributes so much to the community. Thank you Daniel.

I love these videos! TH-cam figured top gun maverick must be a film that they could recommend based on that
Danya the prophet for a reason! Eye opening demonstration
Danya. I loved your videos. I'm trying do learn as much as possibile from your content. Already I have 2nd category AMD next week I will go to the tournament to make first term on 1st category. Keep finger crossed for me 🤞🤞🤞 Greetings from Poland.
Getting a pawn onto d6 and giving a check on the e file while black is completely undeveloped on the kingside is also a common motif in the Smith Morra, more specifically when you sacrifice a knight on d5. It's a nice crossover of ideas between completely different openings.
Smith-Morra and Alapin are not _that_ different, eh
18:10 That Yasser impression got me 🤣🤣🤣
23:00 Daniel Naroditsky “Sometimes you have to go for the sack” words to
live by my friends…
12:48 I love how danya doesnt want to praise himself by saying the other player is a strong gm aswell,but says himself instead lol
Great lesson
Makes two moves*
Danya: yeah he’s already screwed up 😂
Some funny mistranslations in Russian auto-generated subs:
15:22 подруга 95
17:08 ферзь не попадает в сорняки
18:26 идея проста, когда мы думаем о ней
26:06 ладно, проблема в нашем противнике
The thumbnails are so good this series ahahah
YEs my algorithm once again blessed me with the apex of Chess content before bedtime!
Guys i started watching this Channel. I became FM this year. This week i won two consecutive national Blitz tournament. All my gratitude Daniel you explain super well.
Your videos are pure gold. Thank you very much daniel
Yasser's idea is a nice way to say "keep the queen on a stable square from Which she can incorporate into the attack"?
Love videos with an IQP
Very interesting, was always under impression that Bxf3, Nxd5, Bxd1 is better for white, I guess the question is what is better, go into a line that people study ( because it's good ), or go into a side line that people don't study because they think it's bad for white ( but can they prove it in the game )
Efficiently illuminating af
btw loved the Yasser "yeah, yes" moment😄
Danya thumbnails are becoming so good lmao
Danya, you are the best teacher!
The thumbnail picture is pure gold
thanks
"He shot down one balloon, but there are always others." Amazing
Does anyone know which exact Chessable course he is referencing around 48:15?
I think it's called Tame the Sicilian with the Alapin.
Don't forget to like his videos, he truely deserves it^^
"You shot down one balloon, but there's others." Lol 👍
18:10 caught me off guard 😂
This game was so rich and just amazing!
Danya, could you also mention Weeze (close to Dusseldorf) airport? It feels a bit neglected and I'll be flying from there soon.
21:35 when you attack a pawn but your opponent sees tatics
Fav game explained
Underrated thumbnail 😂
well played by the opponent
Lol I like your thumbnail
DN, you would make a good lawyer, I can tell.
I'm addicted to these
Literal dopamine hit whenever I get a notification that he uploaded a new one
@@tajf5529 :) same
Danya, any chance of you annotating your recent game against Carlsen in the Pro League?
Danya moves are so cold like his house apparently 😂
18:10 is pretty funny :)
12:46 you can say ‘as well’, it’s true Danya 😅
I've watched Hikaru's video for over a year but never improved. I've watched danya's video for a month now and I can feel a very big improvement in my chess. Danya is the GOAT when it comes to teaching chess
"gf is cool" - Daniel Naroditsky, relationship advocate 14:45
Naroblitzky 👏😈
"mere humans would play this, which is an absolute disaster" Daniel Naroditsky
Daniel, a request: For these games could you copy-paste the game pgn into the video description? That way 1) it's much easier to fiddle around with variations from the game, 2) from a historical point of view it's much easier to come back to these games years from now with everything in one place, assistive technology (future AIs) could read the game description and help the viewer more readily; there are all kinds of possibilities.
I mean this thumbnail is just unparalleled
🎉🎉🎉
Damn gurlll
44:57 the knight can go to e4, doesn't need to go back.
Catalan next!
How come white doesn’t play bishop E3 to defend the D4 pawn? Can someone explain? I’ve always played this position this way..
Bishops on e3 are not unheard of in iqp positions, albeit a bit passive. In this case, Daniel had clearly better options on each and every move. Is there a specific moment you wanted to play Be3?
Nothing necessarily 'bad' about it. Just boring.
Another Master Class…
Lmao that 1700 just got hit with the whole book of tactics
in an earlier alapin video danya mentioned an alapin bible that he’s been following. does anyone know what book that is?
IIRC he has mentioned approvingly Khalifman and Soloviov's Squeezing the Sicilian, Alapin Variation.
