"I think you should just be a good player and that should earn you points. Because you spend all this time becoming a good player. Why do you have to play well then to back it up? Like all this time and method in becoming a good player should be enough. Yes, I am dead serious". I love it.
I must have not been paying enough attention when Jan recognized that he was facing a cheater. People who smile when they're angry are a little unnerving.
Anyone knows how the ratings on chess24 blitz compare to those on ICC and/or Lichess (in terms of representing strenght)? It's just that I saw two 2200s play like what would be (probably)1600 players on other chess sites. I mean the choice to take at 01:03:35 just shows complete lack of knowledge of basic king and pawn endgames. And the final game went like most of my games where I play a beginner who randomly plays the philidor. Maybe they were nervous about playing a strong GM, I don't know.. I'm not trying to insult anyone, just really curious about what's going on. I haven't played on chess24 for a while and I want to know if the online rating inflation went to the top there somehow.
thernly Thank you. Man, I've been playing 2200s on Lichess lately and I swear they don't play like that, they seem way stronger than the chess24 guys. But ok, they were also games with increment.
55:20 this is why I watch all these. Pearls of wisdom. (As a rubbish player it's psychologically difficult to return your minor pieces to the back rank)
FACT: Jan typed "GGEZ" in game chat after beating Edgard the cheater.
:D i lol'd ^^
"why should I study slav theory when I can live the good life?"
It took Edgar four seconds just to take the Queen lmao.
The evolution of Jan's hairstyle during the show - awesome.

*All this time and effort.
Love how Jan flags cheaters, it's a nice FU to dishonest players like Edgar.
nothing sweeter than a victory by disconnection!
Well done Jan against Edgar da cheetah! Totally satisfying to watch that. Made my day.
Should ban Edgar for ever
Hilarious oversight by Jan in the next to last game, overlooking his opponent's mate-in-one threat.
1:03:26 isn't Ke4 winning or drawing for black?
Edgar got banned, chess24 commented saying so
BlimBlamTheKlorblok 😂😂😂😂 what a name! 😂😂😂😂
Radio Jan could destroy this clown
29:25 Grand-masterly thinking there

Oh man, that loss to GambitPlayer90 must have stung!
I'm a native English speaker, and I really don't notice Jan getting the "th" wrong until after he says.
52:55 made me laugh out loud haha Jan is too funny
Against Edgar and Gambit best games :D Jan so much class..
11:43 do knight d1 not just win a piece?
Maybe some users are putting their name a little hard just to test the pronunciation skills of Jan

The chat is on chess24.com not youtube
Greetings from Canada

Gosh, it certainly looked like it.
