    The 5 amendments of chess by Danya:
    - Don't let your bishop bite on granite
    - Your pieces don't have to be always conquering Mount Everest
    - The threat is stronger than the execution
    - When your opponent plays passively, STRIKE in the center
    - No need to reinvent the wheel, just develop your pieces normally

      I will always trade my bishop or knight for 2 of those kingside pawns. I don’t think I’ve ever turned it down lol and I win those games usually. I’ll usually sac the bishop keep the knight and then swung my queen over there and they have to work so hard to keep the mate from happening I can usually get some nice weaknesses to open up on different areas of the board, of course sometimes I completely miscalculate and get annihilated but that’s just chess lol

    20:21 it is worth it at my level (1500 blitz) because opponents dont know how to take advantage of "activity" and waste it by playing some non-ideal moves. that gives me time to consolidate, and after trading everything, that pawn from the other side of the board is too far for the king.

      Late c3, late Nd2, bad g4, didn't target g6 weakness, played redundant late c3.
      It's hard to play a "bad London" when your 15 moves are same but in slightly different order...

      Actual name is Daniel, Danya is an affectionate nickname

      Danya is the Russian diminutive of Daniel - like Danny in English.

    I actually liked your war analogy a lot and think it applies so well to the twitterverse following the war in Ukraine. You have all of these “low ranked” commenters throwing their grenades and knives, then the mid-ranked journalists with their input. Then the “grandmaster” (hopefully) statesmen and IR scholars thinking about the long view of the world. Anyway, thanks for a great game analysis and food for thought.
