“Just because a hole exists doesn’t mean you should occupy it” danya with the advice a lot of men need to hear
Hahaha
Control over it is much more important... wait.. no
bruh 💀
"You should find the most opportune moment to jump in there"
I hate my mind...
I was finally able to conceptualize the importance of Controlling certain squares after watching this. Top notch explanations here
I understood squares as targets for a little while now but never thought about waiting until an opportune time to occupy it when it can be contested. Or using it for 15 moves to make white live in a sort of mild zugzwang.
I think he’s the best chess instructor on UA-cam. No condensation, clear explanation of his thought process and just amazing insight. Great work. Thanks
"No condensation" lol
Condescension* I hope that doesn’t seem condescending but it’s important you know you’re talking about water condensation basically
@@Bobin10101 Condescension is a less dry approach to his comment for sure
@@Bobin10101aaw😂❤❤❤❤❤❤ 🎉 and
My favorite parts of the speedruns are when Danya brings up positions from historical games illustrating the same concepts, incredible
19:45 "We could've ... win the game immediately, but this ends it on the spot". Yeah, tough choice. Great content and explanation!
I'm sure you've heard this a million times already, but the value of these videos and your explanations is literally priceless. Thank you for all the work you do helping people on the internet get better at chess :)
This Thanksgiving I'm thankful for Daniel giving us the best instructional chess content on UA-cam
The best chess content for learning and understanding the game that’s out there bar none, Danya your content is unmatched
I just wanted to thank Grandmaster Naroditsky for taking the time to put these instructional videos together. I'm about a 1600 blitz/bullet but I'm realizing a stronger positional understanding and classical performance leads to stronger showings in the shorter time controls
So just so we're clear, when Danya says he was dabbling in the Accelerated Dragon in 2005, keep in mind that he is NINE YEARS OLD.
The day that game was played I was 10, and I had just learned NOT to eat the crayons.
I believe that when Danya said that, he was twenty something
@@archsys307 He’s 28, 2005 was 18 years ago so 9 or 10 is right assuming google age was correct
@@logan8708 No. When danya said he was dabbling in the dragon in 2005 he was 20 something
@@archsys307so how old is he?
@@archsys307 He was born in 1995 😺
At first I thought I should wait until the speedrun reached my level of 1500, but after watching this I realized there can always be a learning oppurtunity.
I thought about that too cause that's around where I'm at . But the part about using control of the square to leverage an entire plan was pretty enlightening. If there's one thing I've noticed about us 1500s is we think we're better than we really are, we understand much but apply it poorly and inconsistently.
@@barbaraGobert31 there's always more to learn
I assume comments and such are most helpful in close temporal proximity to the release of the video, but I have watched ... the majority of the youtube videos across multiple speedruns now and this was actually one of my favorite videos viewed. Obvs, Daniel brings historical knowledge into play often, but in this case there were multiple historical lessons that happened in quick succession. It's hard to emphasize why, when all of his videos are incredibly informative, this one stands out but. It was great.
Naroblitzky? Hell yeah
Danya, I have always been a fan of your videos and I like to see that you’re starting to spruce up your thumbnails, hopefully the algorithm rewards this as you deserve all the success in the world king 👑
Amazing video. These speedrun videos really are the gift that keeps on giving.
Another great video Mr Naroditsky, I am always blown away by your concise explanations and logic behind all your moves, you are an amazing teacher and I look forward to much more great teaching content from you. You are definitely one of my favourite players to watch when learning and developing my chess :)
This might be one of the most instructive chess videos I have seen. And I waste a lot of time watching chess videos.
35:52 Actually, the digits of any number divisible by nine also add up to nine, and the last digit decrements by 1 every time you add a nine. 10-7=3 so last digit is 3 which means first digit has to be a 6.
( Rather, the other digits have to add up to six but hey, it aint 153 )

Personally, I'd love seeing the Smith-Morra uniquely. I started playing it after your last speedrun and even got Esserman's book. There's a point to be made that the SMG transposes into the Alapin often enough, but not vice versa - so you'd get enough variety even if you only play 2.d4.
This really is some of the best chess content on UA-cam. Extremely clear, and also thorough.
This is amazing content. Thank you so much.
Loving this series!🙏
Learned a lot watching this. Great instructional video.
Love the speed-run series. Gotta learn more about a6 b5 ideas since I do encounter some Sicilians.
This is the best chess class i have ever attempted thank you so much for this ❤️
Fantastic stuff, thanks Danya!
Ahh Danya perfect. I was just getting into bed and looking for the perfect pre sleep wind down.
Thanks so much!
I'm not a begginer since I have been playing and hence learning chess as a hobby for more than 20 years but I loved this kind of "overexplained" series. Subbing right away
Great video, as always!
nice, thanks for the accelerated dragon knowledge!
If there is 1000 Danya fans I am one. If there is 100 I am one. If there’s 10 I am one. If there is one it is me. If there is none I am dead.
So gay I felt like shooting you.
Im dead
You're dead, I'm taking over👑
Nahh the D*** eating is crazy. Stop bro
Poetic
I started playing sicilian recently, love this speedrun.
So educational. This is amazing content.
Amazing speedruns- after seeing the smith mora game I was so relieved to see that you were once not so perfect lol especially after you've shown us how to play the smith mora before
I love the way you give speeches, don’t crop your videos to connect your sentences. It’s perfect the way it is
This might be the best instructional chess video ever.
Thank you so much for your amazing teaching in these videos. In my opinion, you are the best chess-streaming teacher in the world! Thanks!
Just another fantastic chess video.......thanks!
this i gold! thank you sir
It's insane how many information he process in his brain and explain it at the same time.
These thumbnails are hilarious please keep em coming!!!! :)
Daniel is a great chess teacher. Most instructive chess videos on UA-cam. No doubt he is a great player. 👍
And to think he is still only below 1000 rating. Just think how good he could be if he practiced and studied more! 😳
I think I will subscribe so I can watch his chess journey unfold.
Thank you, not only for this amazing content, but also for just naming the videos in a clear and informative way instead of useless clickbaity oneliners ❤
One of my favorite things about his videos. No bullshit, just good chess.
Great speedrun lesson Danya ! Thanks. Btw I like the new playing interface. Might try it myself. Thanks for showing us dragon lines. I find the hyper accelerated Dragon easiest to remember. He played well for a 1000 until h3. Thanks again !
so kind of u Danya! This is treasure!!! thank U so much!!!!!!! thank you!!!
your explanation is GM Wesley DETAIL!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for your teaching ❤love you
Thanks!
Brilliant video. This series is so instructive. You have now overtaken Chess Coach Andras as my favourite You Tube instructor! :)
Hey man. You probably won’t see this but I just wanted to thank you for these videos. I don’t play chess as much and I struggle understanding some of its harder concepts but yet I always watch your videos especially the speedruns.
For some reason, they have a very positive effect on my mental health and help me with anxiety. I can’t quite explain why.
You explain so well
Ive been watching chess for years this is the only time I looked at a Sicilian structure and went wow that’s beautiful
Love these videos! I've been playing Kings Indian but you make the plan for the Sicilian sound pretty straight forward. Can't wait to see how the game plan changes in an open game.
BTW the audio in the last few minutes is messed up. Its out of sync with the video
The "Battle of d4" was won by General Naroditsky. Some say landing on d4 was to the match as was Normandy was to WW2 equating the landing of the Knight to DDay.
haha I love the Dragon, especially hyperaccelerated, but had no idea about the b5 break, thanks a ton!
awsome tnx a lot
Cool to see a botvinnik setup in your speedrun! I usually play the botvinnik english so i found this game interested to see from a mirrored perspective
very instructional
Nice going Danya
Love from Mexico Danya ❤️
41:28 I personally would love to see Smith-Morra games! I've switched to it since you recommended it in your last speedrun.
To play the Smith-Morra you must also know the Alapin
Bloody hell. I just fired up a game on my chess app I was in midgame and saw that I'd allowed the AI to trade black bishops exactly as Danya warned so I stepped the game back a few moves, advanced the h6 pawn to chase the black bishop from G5, and then traded white bishop for the knight and bobs your uncle I have an easy king attack. From watching the video directly to playing a game in this position (that I was getting wrong!). Thanks Danya.
Thanks 😊 👍
Thank you!
Absolutely love to thumbnail
I love that you draw the arrows everything you say a square because I can't locate the square very fast. So the arrows are very helpful.
Great content keep it up, otz not easy to stay relamant on youtube. Thks
Thank you
beautiful game
35:44 interesting question "how to _a priori_ find the ...b5 plan?"
My answer would be to study pawn play. The old, somewhat weird book _Pawn Power in Chess_ by Hans Kmoch is a fantastic start. There he talked about pawn breaks (called 'levers') to increase space and activity. Also Andy Soltis' book on pawn structures lays out typical middlegame plans.
You have played many gambits in these speedruns, like Queen's Gambit, Smith Mora, Danish, etc. Please do a gambit-only speedrun, with both black and white. It will be awesome. ❤️
Top notch Content on chess for improvement of players like me , thanks danya ❤
Huh, why is there a "GM Jeffrey Xiong" label on the top left?
It gets noticed by 22:30
Eat the pawns :-DDD Superb video again, thank you Mr.!
The thumbnail with Nar-blitz-ky is so nice
8:15 a good clarification, thanks
My second favorite part of a speedrun video is when Danya’s enthusiasm doesn’t wane when +7 in material
Danke!
Best content on UA-cam
Hey danya, I’ve been watching all speedruns since the first speedrun, I love them all, but I was wondering If u could do a speedrun focusing on tactical shootouts
23:36 can we please talk about this, because it has been the bane of my chess existence for quite a long while.
I love this type of closed Sicilian, kingside bishop, queenside rooks and pawn breaks, but I tend to struggle in games with open centers when I have less space. Any advice?
Proud of myself for independently working out that knight outposts were a good positional idea against the Sicilian, although admittedly my logic was that I like moving the knight and making horsey noises
Thanks Danya, from your 1st vid I increased massively but lost a lot bcz I didn't know the difference between open and closed postion.
I’m thankful that the opponent played in a way that allowed you illustrate a combination of positional and tactical thinking. This was such an impressively clear and logical lesson. It might be one of your best!
That queen trap was pure murder
“Just because the hole exists, doesn’t mean you wanna occupy it ASAP.”
Hi Danya. I was wondering if you had any advice. I'm a pretty decent over-the-board player. I can give 2200 players a good game and even win a game or two against them. I feel like I can visualize and calculate much better and quicker over-the-board, and I'm much more focused on the game. When it comes to online chess however I struggle at the 1700-1800 range and tilt a lot and go on long losing streaks. How can I be a more consistent player? Thanks! Your content is the best!
Edit: I played a guy over-the-board not long ago, and beat him every game (except maybe one game; I can't remember). Afterwards, I learned his online rating is 1900-2000.
lmao.. exactly my situation
Yeah I'm not as good as you, but I completely understand. I get flustered and feel like I need to play too fast, where as otb I feel calm and confident(sometimes), and play considerably better.
ratings otb are bloated compared to online
@@Babyfacenelson1981 I'm pretty sure its the opposite, for instance I'm 1300 online and I'm sure I would be around 1000-1100 otb
I believe there's alot of cheaters online especially around the 1600 - 1800 level.
The thumbnail is hilarious
thanks
Learning about controlling outposts in a 1000 game but so useful for much higher ratings too
The best chess education.
Thank you, GM Jeffery Xiong
I often play this Staunton Cochrane variation as white. It's an enjoyable variation but you need to know the theory.
Good for you
@@TheMrInfantaria Yeah Ne2 and d4 are essential moves in the Staunton Cochrane variation otherwise you're going to lose. Don't play it, you're not good enough to pull it off.
I would of called this video. Traped queen in Sicilian. But loved it bro! Keep it up
"there's no scientific formula for when to take free stuff" .... knowing when you've got enough will always be a fine art
This game was brutal positional dominance.
I'm a 2000 and this video helped me a lot
nice
That was great. Speedrun is now Longrun
