I never write comments, but listening to you explain Chess Is the second most impressive thing. The fact that you look like a Good human being Is the First for me, and I Hope you are Happy and having a Good life. And I'm sure it's hard in a world full of egomaniacs like Chess. So thank you very much Mr Daniel for tour job and for your kindness, (even against obvious cheaters) saluti dall'Italia ;)
@@UNKNOWN5427 Against a 1700 who has five minutes on the clock and lines of attack? No chance. It's a different ball game once you pass 1500, these aren't grandmasters but they're good players.
@@pizzashark7067 I mean I’m 1800 and I believe it would be close at the very least. These gms are incredibly tricky you know. Have you seen Hikarus Botez speed run?
Danya I love all of your content, it's so educational while still being captivating. I remember opening an episode of your speedrun as a little 1200 and now having watched them all I've hit 2000 for the first time. I can't thank you enough for all your hard work and teaching ability
@@Omar_Merican I’m not 2k (hopefully will be) but what brought me out of 1500 was deep thought of what to do and coming up with new ideas, I used to play semi automatically and when I started to slow down I started to win a lot more and find ideas that I was very proud of
If you were curious about Nxh7 instead of Bxh7 11:32, black has Qf2 (engine actually says Nxb2 is a draw), threatening mate with Qd2, basically forcing the Queen trade and black’s winning
Not gonna lie I saw that queen f2 was a blunder but before he realised I thought it was part of the plan and there was a tactic that he seen. But nope he nearly went full 1100 and hung the queen haha funny stuff
Hi Danya! I wanted to thank you a lot for your previous video, in which you showed your favorite setup against 1...b6. There's a guy at my chess club who's at my same level of chess skill more or less and he always plays b3/b6 on his first move. He's quite proficient in those kind of openings and so I often struggle against him. Last night I had the white pieces against him, I tried your setup and I got an absurdly dominant position out of the opening. I'd have won quite easily if I hadn't blundered a knight ahah. I was able to win it back and eventually I won the endgame in a time scramble. So, thank you very much, Sensei. Your content is as useful as enjoyable!
*Opponent long castles* Danya without hesitation: "there's the blunder." *Me staring at position for 2 minutes trying to find the mistake* Edit: oh that was obvious. And that's why I'm a 1300
He already had looked for discovered attacks before by the way. and you should never forget that he's one of the best bullet chess players in the world....
My 7-year old son jumped off the couch screaming at the tv when you almost hung your queen. I proudly told him he just saw something a grandmaster missed…Champagne not withstanding…Also, he did not understand why black didn’t take with knight instead of bishop forking queen and rook during black’s attack. I think you said white had a check to get out of it?
Daniel, your content and teaching is my best way to improve my chess with looking for tactics and opening ideas. I strive to be such a strong player like you
After nxe3+ and ke2, there's a super instructive move of nxg2, hitting the discovered checking queen with an follow-up insurance move: rf2. Anddd, Qh3 after nxg2 blunders a royal fork
Hey Danya! I love your videos and can't stop watching your speedruns. I also wanted to ask you if you could do an unsound opening speedrun in contrast to your russian / safe-play kind of speedruns (There's no speedrun on youtube with the wayward queen attack for example). Especially with your analysis and explanations during the game this would be very fun to watch. Maybe you could show at some point what the main drawbacks are or how to get away with such openings. Thank you for your content!
Fantastic commentary. In the final example game I immediately felt e5 then f5 had to be the idea just by having seen the other game and having it explained. A super grandmaster trainer :) e4 in the actual game caught me off-guard. While making chess look easy Naroditsky still processes tons of calculations in his head while talking. Just exceptional both as a player and trainer. Unbelievable he lets us have this for free on TH-cam.
Love your speedrun videos, it's great to see you decisively punish the positional mistakes that us beginners make! A small point: at 17:30 white could meet ...f5 with exf5.
When you played knight f8, wouldn't black have taken the knight with the rook. You then couldn't have played rook e6 forking the king and queen, as the queen would have taken (with check). Any response to that check would be met with the opponent capturing your rook on f8 with their own rook mating you on the back-rank. I think the only move for advantage then would be taking the f1 rook first, unless I'm missing something of course. Also I think playing re8 to protect your back-rank was a pretty significant blunder, as you could you instead played g6 trapping white's bishop on f7. If white's queen played c6#, you'd have freed up the g7 square for your bishop. Amazing video, I watch them all religiously!
Hey Danya! Love the video, one small thing: @1:45 In case of Bg5 here, I think it might not be best to go Bxf2 as you say, but instead Ne4 threatening mate, doing the good ol' oh now my queen, and attacking the bishop. I've played it a couple of times and I think practically this one is better than Bxf2.
Two big takeaways for my beginner self. This once again reinforces the idea that players with solid ratings just don’t know basic opening responses (the response move 2) and a newer concept for me… I just noticed that GM Danya and other higher rated players on TH-cam will say something like “I don’t remember how this goes but let’s see here…” and they verbalize out loud the steps they go through in their head to arrive at a likely solid move in an opening they can’t remember. Why that’s a biggy to me is because the “basic opening principles” are definitely not what’s being used to reason with - they’re simply too vague to apply.
the way i understand the concept of "castling" like these is that the bishop aren't attacking the "castling square" of the king and rook, which is e1 and f1, so white can castle.
I mean… it‘s not like accepting the gambit is terrible for White, I don‘t understand why people just don‘t accept gambits it was the same with the Danish Gambit 🤔
Oh boy I would bm this guys so hard. I would add time for him until he either clicks the surrender button or I promote all pawns and sac every piece just to mate him with a funny bishop move or smth. Fuckin hate these kind of players who dont resign and let the time run out.

Wonderful words, agree with you completely!)
Yeah, Danya seems like a really wholesome person
whats the first one
@@andretirta9801 The first one is that Danya "looks like a good human being".
Thank you for the lesson.
Finally one on the Budapest!
8:28 What about Bd3 instead of Bc2 and after Q moves then Bxe3+ and when the R blocks, Rxf1+, Rxf1 Bxf1? and then taking the other R for the other B
budapest and almost botez gambits
9:15 - When You've hovered Your queen over f2 square, I've got "Oh gosh! He's going to blunder his queen the way I sometimes do" :D
I was like 'Oh no! Your queen!"
I have a blind spot for knight-moves so i didn't even notice at first.-. yep, I'm a 1500 .-.
And so began the “too much champagne speedrun.” Get you to 1 mill subscribers in no time
Danya is almost human and almost blunders his queen... 😂
Danya playing chess as black:
White plays 1.e4
Danya: already an inaccurate move by the opponent lets see how we punish it
16:42 'So already e4 is a mistake, I think' xD

Great video! I'm excited for the next installment of the endgame series
Thanks for sharing your wonderful teachings visually!
Thank you, awesome to watch. Pure zen. Sensei
In 12:15,why didn't you just take the pawn with the knight in G2? He couldn't take of course with his queen because of rook f2 and it is game over...
The stockfish idea of forcing the queen away from the central pawn to force your opponent to give up an exchange absolute scumbag maneuver.
Why bishop C2 wins the exchange? What prevents white king from capturing the bishop? I must be missing something important here
Hello can you help me? Pause the game at 10:45 - if he takes H7 with the knight instead of the bishop doesn't he fork Danya's Queen and Rook?
I think Qf6 was not the best. White gets a lot of counterplay after Nf4 with tempo instead of Bd3 and there’s no e4 by black in that position 🤔
Love the speedrun Danya. Is the next vid in the endgame series coming soon too?
Can someone why he couldn’t take that bishop with the king after the castle move? I’m not seeing it
Great but please don't abandon these Endgame videos.
10:34 doesn't Nh7 fork the queen and the rook or am I missing something?
Good to supplement your theory with the declined gambit
Which is the app that Danya uses to show us other games? Can I get a database with lots of games like his?
Like Hikaru says when questioned about why his opponents play so badly against him, "it's because they feel the power of a move and freak out"
Can someone clone Daniel so that we can have videos each and every day?
@10:47 why not knight h7 fork queen and Rook?
Love the Frankfurt airport metaphor.
15:42 Am I bad for laughing at the guy who suggested re4? 😂

Love your speedrun videos, it's great to see you decisively punish the positional mistakes that us beginners make!

When you played knight f8, wouldn't black have taken the knight with the rook. You then couldn't have played rook e6 forking the king and queen, as the queen would have taken (with check). Any response to that check would be met with the opponent capturing your rook on f8 with their own rook mating you on the back-rank. I think the only move for advantage then would be taking the f1 rook first, unless I'm missing something of course.
Also I think playing re8 to protect your back-rank was a pretty significant blunder, as you could you instead played g6 trapping white's bishop on f7. If white's queen played c6#, you'd have freed up the g7 square for your bishop.
Amazing video, I watch them all religiously!
You are correct. You must play rook takes rook to maintain advantage.
Some moves cure cancer, other moves cure boredom lol
Like before watching as usual
Hey Danya! Love the video, one small thing: @1:45 In case of Bg5 here, I think it might not be best to go Bxf2 as you say, but instead Ne4 threatening mate, doing the good ol' oh now my queen, and attacking the bishop.

In case of Ne4 the opponent just takes with his knight and you're a full piece down
This is some really good chess instruction!

Yes, position always trumps generalities. Just like facts always matter more than stereotypes.
I recommend your channel to everyone I know that's even barely interested in chess. Keep it up!
how far can u get with a grob borg speed run? lol
How was white able to castle through the bishop attack?
The rook can move through an attack, but the king may not.
the way i understand the concept of "castling" like these is that the bishop aren't attacking the "castling square" of the king and rook, which is e1 and f1, so white can castle.
@@swift8821 crazy I misunderstood the rule for so long
I love your videos, keep going!
yes! sensei danya with another post! ☺️
BOW TO YOUR SENSEI!
8:17. Was it worth it for your opponent to look at capturing the bishop and rook in exchange for the queen rather than just trading bishop for rook?
Maybe QxR+, RxR, KxB and then try for controlling the f file with rooks?
It's probably still losing, but maybe it was worth a shot.
Y not king take bishop??
