39:30 Actually clapped IRL, bravo! That game was like a boss fight in a video game, just non-stop pressure and then he pulled out all of the stops to try to trick you at the end. Perfect.
thanks for uploading these to TH-cam, I do enjoy chilling out and watching you play some chess and I don't do twitch, so it's really appreciated that they're on TH-cam too.
Hey John! It would be cool if you could occasionally overlay chat, especially after big wins. Being in there live is fun, I think it would add a lot to these videos. Thanks for another upload!
Loving these videos John - also a big fan of the end of game 2! I feel like I could always take a little bit more of your post-game chat as part of the edit; but I understand (and appreciate) the desire to make the video more streamlined.
That game against wild3000 was one I enjoyed a lot. Would be a nice one to frame ;). And I haven't even seen the other games yet. Thanks for regularly posting again! edit: that game against Salem-AR was sick hehe.
Was delighted to hear you mentioned on Lex Friedman's podcast with Magnus this evening. Hope you get a chance to watch it if you haven't already. Cheers!
1:15:45 "So there was actually a move there: Re7. I'm sure you in the TH-cam comments, in the future, are pointing that out. Before the game is even complete, you're writing your comment." Oh, John. You know us so well.
LOL, I had literally just typed in a comment about Re7, then I decided to wait and see if he would analyze it before submitting. He surely not only did it, but also called me out in advance... :D
Hey John! I like watching your streams as your personality seems kind and easygoing. I both love and hate chess myself (at the moment) since I flip out on some occasions when my brain suddenly stops working and my eyes don't see a mate in one. Also your videos help me with my English and you use some authentic vocabulary and natural phrases. Good luck with your career! I hope you'll get to read the comment :)
Just finished the video. Congrats on 19th place. Salem was clearly just the start of the onslaught. What a difference from commonly playing behind on the clock to holding advantageous positions in during time scrambles yesterday. 🔥🔥
Hi, John! I hate to annoy you with the same question, I was just wondering if there is still a possibility of seeing the LTR Scandi on the pipeline :-)
Hey john, nice vid, I was wondering, in the first game, ne5 instead of nd2 looked very interesting to me, because there are some tricks. What are your thoughts?
That second game was insane!
The ending of the second game was insane. I've never seen two pieces caged in like that. Well done!
The "Hey john, this is guys." notification always makes me chuckle
A tradition like no other gladly revived.
OUTSTANDING composure in that end game against Salem. Awesome pal
Thanks, James!
I so happy you’re making a comeback on TH-cam with the titles Tuesday vids!

Very enjoyable. Thanks for taking the time to edit the games down so well (but without excluding extra interesting bits either).
Nice win against Salem! Really cool to see some calm and collected defense paying off against a stronger player.
John defeated him 2 weeks ago too probably if i am recalling correctly.
Love the positivity John! Keep up the great vids! Much appreciated! Liking the beard also. 👍
Damn, the ending of game 2 was awesome. Well done!
Love the return to TH-cam and Titled Tuesday! You're playing some great games and hanging with the best of them! Very fun to watch
Wow! The game against Salem and the last one against JC Ibarra, What a ride! Well done John, impressive as usual.
It's so good to have this back. Getting your JB fix twice a week is exponentially better than only once!
Win or lose, such a pleasure watching you play John. Thanks for all the great content and congrats on a great performance!
Really appreciate these Titled Tuesday vids being edited to just show the games and analysis. Really sets you apart 👍
Love the endgame of #2 with B+pawn dominating K+R. great play John!
Like everyone else, I love these TT videos and your return to YT. And this was my favorite TT performance I've watched. Love it.
Awesome! Best content on TH-cam John!
thanks for uploading these to TH-cam, I do enjoy chilling out and watching you play some chess and I don't do twitch, so it's really appreciated that they're on TH-cam too.
Awesome format! Thanks for producing these, John! Cheers from Berlin.
Crazy how quickly you saw those tactics and the mate in the last game. Nicely done sir.
Great to have you back playing Titled Tuesday John!
These title Tuesday vids are so impressive and inspire me. Thanks John. This content is excellent
John, will my chess skills improve if I wear flannel and drink coffee?
Beautiful game 2! Your content is always great. Thank you
Keep 'em coming John! These are great.
Good time management John, took down several high rated GM's...much better than last week!
Hey John! It would be cool if you could occasionally overlay chat, especially after big wins. Being in there live is fun, I think it would add a lot to these videos. Thanks for another upload!
So glad this is back. Been a lovely surprise to find after work these last few weeks. Thanks for coming back!

ƒιηѕ on fire 🔥🔥
Great effort John 👏
15:09 The position where White's pieces had only two squares was a masterpiece of positional dominance.
Really pulling off that endgame technique this time, it was an awesome titled Tuesday to watch!
the way you trapped that rook at 15:15 was beautiful ! well played sir.
Thank you! That was a fun ending :)
Great game vs. Salem, John! That was great to watch: clawing your way out of early difficulties to turn the tables...beautiful.
Thanks for the content, John!
Yay I’ve been binging old Titled Tuesdays, love a fresh upload
nothing more entertaining than this presentation
Time stamps with opening names is a v good addition
That game against wild3000 was one I enjoyed a lot. Would be a nice one to frame ;). And I haven't even seen the other games yet. Thanks for regularly posting again!
edit: that game against Salem-AR was sick hehe.
Insane game 9! The benoni is such a though opening to handle as white in blitz, argh
Game 9 win on time was SUBLIME. Beautiful defense, but most importantly, John used the CLOCK as a weapon.
this was awesome, great job john!
That cage you set up against wild3000 was super cool
Was delighted to hear you mentioned on Lex Friedman's podcast with Magnus this evening. Hope you get a chance to watch it if you haven't already.
Cheers!
Wow, those games were great!😊
lovely content john
Game 5 was so impressive. So proud!
1:15:45 "So there was actually a move there: Re7. I'm sure you in the TH-cam comments, in the future, are pointing that out. Before the game is even complete, you're writing your comment." Oh, John. You know us so well.

Congrats on this awesome performance!!
"Hey John, this is Guys" gets me every time
Awesome Scandi games

Enjoy listening to your thought process! Great games.
Great games! Good job keeping up the pressure especially in the last game. Giving white no time to think.
Some epic games, nice one John
Oh man the end of that second game was so cool
*Edit: Oh man and that Salem game keeping it together under that pressure... my heart was racing
Amazing game vs Salem! I cheered when you beat him.
Last game was wild. What a line!
Wow, JB! #19 - a very good finish! And yeah, nice stuff in time scrambles, and a beautiful situation at the end of the last game.
Cage theory strikes!
Thanks John!
John “the GM grinder” Bartholomew. Nice tourney!
Super strong field
Good work John
congtats John. Nice session.
HUGE game against Salem 🔥
Just finished the video. Congrats on 19th place. Salem was clearly just the start of the onslaught. What a difference from commonly playing behind on the clock to holding advantageous positions in during time scrambles yesterday. 🔥🔥

The Legend, the king of chess himself!!
After Bortnyk two weeks ago, now a 2971 ELO....Congrats!
So excited to watch this ...👌👌
Nice showing!
Beautiful Games!
Anyone remember when John made a no more Scandi video on April 1st?
Let’s go!!!! Just turning it on now. I too have bad chess weeks. On the other hand, I also have good chess weeks! Best of luck :)
Ending no a high note. The last game is awesome!
nice score John!
MOAR STANDARD JOHN PLEEAAAASSSEE
Hey john, nice vid, I was wondering, in the first game, ne5 instead of nd2 looked very interesting to me, because there are some tricks. What are your thoughts?
Hey bro can you do a new climbing rating ladder people on chess account have been kinda more advanced at lower levels would love to see it
After watching the last few of these uploads, I think John needs to take up norm hunting…
Thought the Gritty Defense was some new opening I’d never heard of. Mildly disappointed.
1.15 I saw Re7 but it's easier to see when you're not playing
John the giant slayer!
GG's !
is it wooooo or whoooo?
yo did he hit the griddy on defense 💀
♥️
