I think it's that combined with the difference of goals, he sees goals that most people below his level wouldn't. Once you spot those goals it's much easier to find the move and break tunnel vision.
@@GugaSouza0 You know, I'm getting pretty suspicious of the opponent. I mean look at his last 5 moves in the endgame in the 2nd game. I really don't think someone would waste 5 pointless king moves moving back and forth in the same position.
Some additional observations: this account stopped playing after the encounter with Danya. He only played one more game, on the same day, in which he beat a guy who was subsequently banned for cheating. He was losing in that game, but held his own in an incredibly sharp and tactical queenless middlegame, to pounce when his opponent's level suddenly dropped in time pressure.
For anyone interested, all these videos being posted are about 3 weeks behind Danya's twitch. He streamed this about 3-4 weeks ago I remember watching this and the last few. He is also doing a Rapid speedrun in addition to this blitz speedrun. He streams everyday usually around 6pm-2am eastern standard time. He usually does the speedrun in the middle/end of his streams so like 8pm or later. Also still does lessons here and there with pogchamp contestants and Stronger players 2000+

The thing is he would be up till that time anyway. If you watch him stream it is very clear that he is doing for fun. And not trying to squeeze money out of people
@@insydian being up and being on are different things. Streaming is taxing enough when you're not playing world class rapid chess and trying to spontaneously draw lessons out of every move both you and your opponent play. 5am is way past bedtime in that scenario
I watched some of his other games.. he does often take around the same amount of seconds for each move. And than sometimes shorter for obvious moves (most of the time these are some of his worst moves too) or a bit longer, so hard to say he is a cheater. However his win ratio is also 81% of 142 games, and for those saying he cant be a cheater because he’s 2300 at bullet; he played 3 games of 2min + 1 as bullet, and thats it. With again taking about 4 seconds with every move... But whatever, what happened happened. Hope Daniel continues the speed run💪 He’s been putting a lot of effort into this and I wanna thank him for that! I’ve been getting a lot better real quick
I've seen the name JimmyFallon1 before somewhere on a different chess stream, he's definitely somebody... I almost feel like it's Chessbrah but I also am always wrong about everything
I don't think that's it. I think he's a phenomenal bullet/hyperbullet player so time (20seconds or less) isn't the biggest of deals to him. I think what it is is that he didn't play the best move or opening because he didn't expect the opponent to be so strong. If he knew how strong the player was he would play according to that strength. There's a video somewhere of Kasparov getting angry in a simul because he was under the impression everyone was below a 2000 rating so he played to that level and ended up losing (I think) to a 2200 coach because he played down a level.
@@mw6763 but if he didn’t talk he would never have to get down to 20 seconds, he would have time to think. Just because he is a great bullet player doesn’t mean he doesn’t play better with time to think.
@@Yurrbo what? but the reason he is doing this speedrun is to talk + he has on numerous episodes asked the chat what he should do when he has 14, 10, or even 5 seconds left. he said it on literally the episode before this: he's a professional and really fucking good a fast chess so time isn't as much as a problem as you're saying it is for him
It’s taken Danya 68 videos to finally lose. Engaging with an audience and elaborating every move while winning is extreme difficult. Trust me I’m 850 in rapid, I know what I’m talking about...
he played only 3 bullet games and all of them are 2 minutes + 1 increment, not 'true' bullet (1 min). he also has 3 losses to players rated in the low 1000s when the account opens, before it goes super saiyan
@@mclol2920 chesscom puts trash talkers in a separate pool with other trash talkers. I have never seen a jerk on chesscom in the 6 months I've seriously played the game. The fact it's common for you probably says a lot about you more than anyone tbh
The guy wasn't playing like a computer, but such a short time control can be a leveler. Especially as Danya is losing time explaining the game. Danya is playing more on general principles than concrete calculations with so little time. In the 15-minute games he sees almost everything. Both players were missing tactical shots. I think he was a GM, rather than a computer.
it is very odd that jimmy resigned the last game, it was a draw in your calculations you jumped from kf5 to kxh5, what is odd is that he just resigned. maybe he was watching the stream and just heard you say "it's winning" and resigned? i dont know
23:00 that kind of behaviour is indicative of an inexperienced, but brilliant player. This guy might be a certifiable genius who just hasnt studied much chess.

Look dn, call a rook a rook. Levy is an im, and he just hit 2800. 2400 is a rating below an fm. So the best possible excuse is, he was a smurf. But i think he was cheating, because of the inaccurate moves you pointed out, and the time advantage.
Haha went to his profile, he's only played 145 games, won 85% of them, and has had 25 game win streaks. He always wins at 97+ percent accuracy. Tell gothamchess to feature him on catching cheaters.
@@swift2641 he isn't playing 'true' bullet, he literally only has 3 bullet games and they're all 2 minutes + 1 increment. someone else looked at the timestamps and noticed that across all his games, including the three 'bullet', he takes 4 seconds repeatedly (i.e. enough time to check engine in other window)
definitely. that account is 6 months old and only has around a 100 games. it starts off losing three games at around the 1300 level with beginner errors, then goes on a months long unbeaten streak bringing it into the 2000s. it's either a smurf/shared account or a cheater
It's funny how you're trying to convince yourself he's not a cheater suppressing the genuine true intuition which screams CHEATER! I wish people used their intuition more often instead of pretending to only "stick to the facts and nothing but the facts" that fella was a cheater and it's been proven so you were wrong.
The moves seem so obvious until you actually play a game on your own. Then you get MASSIVE tunnel vision.
I think it's that combined with the difference of goals, he sees goals that most people below his level wouldn't. Once you spot those goals it's much easier to find the move and break tunnel vision.
@@PocketSquidward thank you squidward

TIL Jimmy Fallon moonlights as a semi GM level chess player
*Jimmy Fallon the 1st
He laughs extremely loudly and for an uncomfortably long time when he delivers a checkmate too.
Daniel is such a celebrity to me I always assume there are thousands of comments before I get here
21:53 DANYA BEAST MODE
Had to back it up with the Feesh, but c8=Q is not winning
The mystery of JimmyFallon1. He stopped playing a year ago after this series.
I learn so much from your videos!
Hands down, my fave chess teacher on UA-cam. ❤️
The problem with twitch is that you can make money any time you steam. Danya should stop his work shift well before 5am, for his own health
It is so evil: "you can work 40 hours a week and get some money, but working 80 hours a week will give you four times more money and ruin your health"
" you can make money any time you steam." Does he work at a Dry Cleaners?
The thing is he would be up till that time anyway. If you watch him stream it is very clear that he is doing for fun. And not trying to squeeze money out of people

I felt that I had also lost the game but learn a lot from this. thanks man, let's go up to 3000
Charlie will be very disappointed in his loss.
But he'll probably understand.
The beatings will not be soft...
Premoved to watch this. Love your content Danya!
I'm definitely premoving the likes on every video in this series
Danya just presented the way we all play. We see our mistakes just after we play a move, then just tilt in a worse position blundering even more
PART 69 INCOMING LET'S GOOOOOO

thanks for doing some more of the legwork, definitely a very suspicious account taking into account the time-move pattern.
Leela zero with low nps has this effect
I don't want to say he's a cheater but I think he's definitely a gm or something smurfing.
His move times are normal what are you at? Sometimes you just gotta admit GMs lose too.

Yes, I've definitely seen him before as well, just can't remember where
I think its jimmy Fallon
Thanks for the great content Daniel
Congratulations on crushing Magnus in 26 seconds Danya!
im not even into chess a lot but this dude is amazing, great channel here
I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t lose any games if he didn’t have to worry about explaining the moves. He just gets too low on time

I was checking the last game's analysis and found out that Queening right away was a blunder and it resulted in a draw :D
A lot goes over my head at this point, but the parts I can use are golden!
I like to think it was really jimmy fallon behind the screen
Very instructive series
It's Jimmy Fallon. The only comedian in history to have laughed more at his own jokes than the audience.
16:45 open bishop?? you are sleepy dania
When u lose u look so bummed I can relate 😕
Losing hurts his soul
Oh god why is he playing at 5AM
JimmyFallon1 is clearly someone's alt account, it only has about 150 games on it, guy hasn't even played since Jan 8 when he played Danya.
One more episode.
He has a 113/25 win loss ratio. He's def a smurf, probably not cheating because he's 2300 in bullet as well.
@Steve Brown He started out at 1600 and in 4 days rose to above 2200. He has 113:25 win/loss and yes, beat a very strong GM. Smurf for sure.
@Steve Brown Strong bullet players dont get made in 1 week you Know? you have to play like at least a couple of months to get good and fast at bullet.
@@aburriiiiiiiiiiido he might be a smurf,so he can basically swift through 2000 below

Well if you play 50% 4800 ELO and 50% 0 ELO, of course you're at 2400.
