    I really like these Speedruns which, I think, are quite instructive, even for strong players. It would be interesting to see an advanced version of this against a stronger opponent, say 2000ish. That might work better with a longer time such as (20, 0) to allow more time for explanation of strategy.

    below 1800 or so, learning the two knights is just free ELO. It's a good response to the Caro at any level, but against intermediate opponents you can often get a completely winning position out of the opening.

    In game 1, after Bf4, I was looking at Black playing Nxe4, Qxe4 Qxb2, Rb1 Qxc3. The initial capture of the knight allows Black to grab the extra pawn. Black can follow up with Nf6, gaining a tempo by making White move the queen. If Black instead followed Qxe4 with Nf6 first, White can relocate the queen to protect the b pawn, as on c2.

    @aeleron0577 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have a question: At 18:24, why did you not consider Nd4, attacking the pinned knight? My analysis would be if Nxd4, Bxd1, Kxd1, exd4, winning the exchange. Alternatively, if white does not move the knight, Nxf3, gxf3, Bxf3 forking the rooks looks very good to me. If white defends the knight with the queen, we can exchange the dark-squared bishop to force it to move again.
    Is my analysis correct, or am I missing something?

    One bit of feedback (after watching a lot of Danya's speedruns), I'd encourage you to try to explain a lot of the latent ideas for both sides roughly at the level you are during the speedrun. Currently it sometimes feels more like you're explaining why your moves are crushing these newer players, rather than "how can I as a newer player find the winning strategy in XYZ position".

    1100s have blindness beyond 4 squares. Even if you just moved your piece 5 squares away the previous turn

    Any guesses on when Erick will take his first loss on the speedrun? I'll go for game 115

      He's already an IM often performing at GM level. So the question should be when we see the first draw

      I can't see him losing to anyone below 1900. Assuming he does up 100 rating points every 20 games, that would mean... at least 180 more games.

      I'd doubt he'll draw to anyone below 2100. My take is he'll draw on game 285(?

    Hmmm...Didn't break a sweat, Eric. Time to level up and play in the 2000 range?

    The end of the game is unpredictable … but not for Eric )))

    I'd have lost it if my opponent blundered on the same square twice. Perhaps Eric has the talent to be a straight man?

    12:27 if knight moved to e3 black would've won material, right?

      Ne3 would be met with fxe3 Qxe3 and Bf2 -- white would actually win material there
