This might be one of the best games of the speed run, because it's a scenario in which black declines the gambit in an unconventional fashion, yet defends very well. Meanwhile, Danya attacks on the kingside in a way he wouldn't do against a GM, making it instructive for both white's perspective and black's perspective. Excellent opponent, and excellent game!
Also there were no blunders, which makes the game over immediately.
As the rating climbs, the game quality does too.
The engine actually had it -3 for black after Daniel sacrificed his bishop. Definitely not something you would want to do against someone that is your strength
@@goldenboy140 I think Danya was just trying to emphasise practical difficulty over engine difficulty though. You should be interpreting his lessons in your own way and applying them in a way that relates to your level and experience... in my opinion anyway
@@goldenboy140 I just prefer to think of Danya's videos as lectures more so than practical examples or anything. The specific moves he makes are less important than the explanations he gives.. Im not going to put in my opinion at the end because I think we can all agree on that 👍
@@that355 You don't need to tell me lol I love his videos. He even acknowledged himself that the computer is probably laughing at him.
Pushing the pawn to kill his battery is a move I would never see I hope I can remember that in the momet.
Its all about acknowledging and taking away your opponents defensive resources. Very good and common technique that is used when attacking. Sometimes you have to pause and think, how can my opponent defend? and try to remove that.
Hi Daniel
I just want to go out of my way by telling you I find these masterclasses *exceptionally* instructive and I hope there are many more speedruns yet to come.
Keep up the marvelous work!
This series is super instructive and helpful! Thanks Daniel! Keep going! Cheers
Breaking down the logic behind the moves and asking questions after giving some hints makes those games reviews super instructive.
"I'm sure the computer is laughing at me right now ...."
*Reads the title*
"You can decline it?"
21:53 just like Hikaru Ng5, 22:01 logical logical logical . . . right chat?! It's a logical knight move right?
Thanks for the content. This right here is where the fun begins for me, as I'm around the 1600-1900 rating, or so I think.
or so you think? do you not have an account on a chess platform?
@@KatieLifts Had one on chess.com and stopped playing rapids 6 years ago, my peak was 1700's. I recently picked up the game again and joined a chess club and have drawn against 1900-2000 players.
@@truthbringer1548 i see. makes sense, then
Gut
I love this opening haha
Interestingly, Danya misevaluates 8. e5! which in fact wins immediately.
Bxf3 is impossible because upon Qxf3, the knight and rook are both attacked. b4 fails in multiple ways, the simplest being 9. exf6 bxc3 10. fxg7 Bxg7 11. bxc3 and white is a clean pawn up. If 8. ...dxe5, 9. dxe5 Nd5 10. e6! is in fact very strong. 10. ...fxe6 11. Ne5 results in a position where it is basically impossible to develop anything for black, and many moves allow a fatal Qh5+. g6 can never be played safely because there are too many pieces eyeing g6, enabling winning sacrifices to occur on that square. Danya is way too overoptimistic about black's chances for survival after this pawn sacrifice.
DANIEL!!!
We need more games per video :[
I think quality over quantity here is what makes it best. If he covers one line in such depth you will be more likely to learn it than if he spent 10-15 minutes on 3 games and not going through each move the way he is doing now.
I'm braindead
I clicked this vid when It was at 999 views, now it's at 1k :D
Where's my prize?? 😂
@DIVYANSH JADLI thank you sir :D
Hi Naroditsky
"Yeah I actually have to calculate unlike him" lmao the shade
Here 6:28 :) ehehe
he didnt mean that as an insult, the guy was just playing instantly
AKA me vs every single opponent I play in Blitz
@@justinlawrence5611 no, he meant that the guy was probably using a chess engine for some of the moves.
@@CT2507 No he didn't lmao. You can't instantly input an engine move, it takes at least like 3-5 seconds. He was just making a joke.
That d7 move was so good!!!
according to the computer it was somehow a mistake lol
@@wallstreetmonky6797 because of what?
@@TheChameleon64 yeah i thought about why for 5 minutes and came up with nothing
@@wallstreetmonky6797 what did the computer suggest?
Nvm I'll check it myself
I’m already looking forward to rewatching this entire speedrun.
LOL
Yo when he started advising on how black could have equalized/capitalized on the bishop sac with one of their own. That was just such top tier content. Crazy good chess to see explained so well.
Bishop biting on granite? No, bishop biting through granite.
I'm not a Twitch subscriber (only watch on YT) but I want to say I enjoy this series (and others) a lot! I have even rewatched some specific uploads. @Daniel Naroditsky is a very good instructor, he knows lower rated players thinking processes very well. I enjoyed this specific game a lot as well, although I don't play the variation. Maybe more 1.d4 games would be instructive too, for the d4 players.
The best game I’ve ever seen. So many interesting things in one game
ABSOLUTELY LOVE your speed runs. Other GM’s and IM’s have theirs, but your style perfectly fits my learning style and entertainment value.
You are a natural teacher!!!!! I ALWAYS learn something from you. This video? Giving back the sacrifice if the conditions are right.
Thank you Danya !!!!!
How do you not have 1,000,000 subs ?
I'm sad. Most of his videos are white pieces :(((((
what a fantastic defensive game this guy played
The best thing as a Portuguese speaker is that "morra" means die.
ironic because that’s what I want to do when someone declines my Smith Morra gambit
Thats what I want to do when white plays the smith morra against me
@@anathamon wdym? the smith morra should lead to a very VERY slightly better position for black, 0.00 or -0.1
@@polychromaa practice is much much different than computer analysis in the opening
@@evanhansen5064 practically both sides have equal winning chances too, the 0.00 evaluation is very unsurprising
You're the best! Haha, a bit roller coaster of feelings there. So are we winning? Are we loosing? Do you have it under control? Hahaha
34:52 Just goes to show how powerful the queen is, even adding one far removed from action still enables a defense!
Yeah that's a crazy line
For anyone curious, the defense is check the king on h1 then bring the queen to d1, then bringing her back to the g-file to guard against Qg7#
@@jeremyjacoby4754 yep
Thanks for all the videos Daniel! You are a saint! I've increased my rating from 1600 to 1800 in the past 2 months thanks to you!
day 25 of saying you're the best danya. this is literally some of the best content on youtube. Thank you!
Really interesting game
Who's the author you're talking about as an authority of the Smith Morra?
Marc easer man is th leading authority on th smith morra. His book is mayhem in th morra
A better camera and a better microphone could bump the quality of your content by 10X. The teaching part is already awesome.
Nice video as usual Mr Daniel. Keep up the good work from ur No 1 Supporter.
D7 is a move I never even considered, that was cool
Just downloaded it,thanks for letting us know that there is a book on this too!!
Hopefully you paid for it!
Props to your opponent. That was an outstanding game
Got it! Deflect, deflect, deflect.
Thank you GM Danya
Smith-Mora declined wow never had this variation in a game before
danya the best ❤️
LETS GOO
The Smith-Morra is like the exact reason I stopped playing the Sicilian and tried to pick up the Caro-Kann instead. Never tried declining it with d6, though. Seems... Not great.
Just play the Pin Defense, and eschew the Scheveningen structure most people go into. The Pin Defense is not only easier to play, but it's also less familiar to white players so they will often make mistakes due to not knowing what to do. The main ideas are to develop the bishop to b4, and sometimes (but not always) exchange it for the knight to force white to put a pawn on the c-file and close it off. Rather than put a pawn on d6, you leave it on d7, perhaps counterintuitively leaving the d6 square available as a potential hole for white to occupy, but if he occupies it, a lot of his major piece pressure is blunted, and black can often boot a bishop or queen out of that square eventually anyway. The kingside knight often develops to e7 and then to g6, to take the f4 square under control, a square to which white often wants to deploy a bishop.
I have an excellent score against the Morra in my games thanks to adopting this defense, and I am no longer afraid at all of accepting the gambit, even in blitz.
To whoever is reading this, you are so loved and you matter!Whatever you’re going through will get better, and although it may not feel like it at the moment you will be okay!❤️
I just wanted to tell you that Jesus loves you & I hope you have a good day!
I just want to tell you that Jesus died a long time ago
@@JB_inks XD
Premoving c5 is such a commitment. If they play d4 you have to play the Benoni
the engine did laugh at that bishop sac, would've been interesting if the opponent was good enough to punish it
YURR
Can we please make the board bigger? The whole screen?!
No
Big Danny at it again
To any chess gods, when he played bishop e4 to trade them off and get the knight to e4, is it possible to just go knight e4 anyways, and if bishop takes, rook e4 to setup rook lift? Or is that much weaker than bishop e4?
after Ne4 Bxe4 Rxe4 there's Rxc1 ... sneaky rook
That was a fantastic opponent to play against. Great video
Why was f5 not discussed to defend after Ne4? I feel like it complicates things a bit more than the lines discussed. Obviously the position is lost but it's an idea to point out.
Danya hating on the Alapin damn
He likes the Alapin a lot, but he plays it a lot in the speedruns so it was getting a little old.
I hate it it's boring af
Thanks for all the videos and the insights, just keep doing this. Thanks again.
This series is incredible
Daniel Naroditsky
super cool tactics
14:56
Даня, ты очень крутой контент делаешь! я посмотрел твоих анализов и действительно стал лучше играть! поднял 100 рейтинга! это офигенно! и еще английский качается (медленнее)
Rather tasty.
How about a speedrun on queens gambit declined?
You keep saying “we’ve been playing c3 all the time” in multiple videos but I saw no video with c3 Sicilian. Where is it??
In his previous speedrun
Tricky tactics throughout
king of the boarddd
I feel like I am learning a lot about the move order in openings and why the move order might change depending on what your opponent plays.
Thank you for taking the time to do this series.
really nice content
Yooo 5 min ago
first
Danya I’m in Charlotte teach me your ways 💯
Go to his chess club
New Danya video 😳
What will happen in such situations 🤔
Could you please play The Vienna in one of your series, with middle to high rated players? Id super happy to see 5-6 games about the Vienna..
I dont like the new transition in the beginning. The swipe in of the intro…. Stop it
Do Catalan next time when you're white in the next video GM Naroditsky, it would be a pleasure if you would play it, it's my favorite Opening
deja vu. Is this a reupload?
