Around 3 months ago I found both chess24 and John Bartholomew's YT channel: Watched a lot of things on both and then this day came: my two super-heroes met over the board !!! Thanx a lot and yes: can't wait to see you two play again!
I rooted for John, but you played so calmly and unpretentious that I ended up watching your recording instead. Well done. Love to see more of these competitive games. wtg
Too many complainers about flagging. Online blitz is a game of speed just as much as it is chess skill. If your opponent can play faster than you and wins on time, they are a better blitz player. End of story. It can't be avoided because it's the nature of the game; it's what makes blitz chess what it is.
Hi Jan. I have been watching your videos for several months. I know how to move the pieces, but that's the extent of my game play. I totally enjoy your commentary, your banter, your self deprecation at times; very insightful. You have a deep knowledge of the game. I totally enjoyed your match with JB. I had two windows going so I could switch windows between moves, and listen to your respective commentaries. Great fun!!! Hope you do it again. Cheers.
+aberration of ovum KC played a bullet match against John on lichess a while ago I think it was 16-1 with 2 draws for John Kc is good but couldn't beat Jan.
+aberration of ovum Kingscrusher would struggle to draw against John let alone a 2650+ GM. He is an exciting attacking player but just not grounded enough theoretically to match even an IM.
Hey Jan, ich bin auf chess 24 und finde keine Möglichkeit Kritik zu üben, also hier: Wenn ich spiele und mache einen Zug passiert nix - dann muss man das ganze nochmal an/aus machen, der Gegner hat schon lange gezogen, meine Zeit läuft, aber bei mir tickt immer noch des Gegners Zeit. Ausserdem finde ich, zwischen Kevin und Claudia ist der Abstand zu gross, Kevin schlage ich 90%, Claudia schlägt mich 99% - ansonsten habe ich viel Spass und wünsche Euch alles Gute - ihr macht einen guten Job und wenn ich mehr Geld HÄTTE, wäre ich auch Premium... Crush them all!
+ChessRabbitt I would be surprised if Jerr got a draw in 10 games. Love Jerry but he is 2019 FIDE, I am much weaker than Jerry but I can still see lots of positional naivety in his openings and middle games. That said i love jerry and big fan of his.
Actually Jan destroyed John quite impressively. He could have flagged him each time he was up on time, like John did in the first game. Jan really showed sportsmanship and the win was well deserved. John is a very tough opponent though and is a force to reckon with when there is considerable time control. Looking forward to a rematch.

Waited a week for this!
Thanks for the great match!

complainers are the ones who are envious of a skill they don't have. So use that energy to practice with and you will be the one envied!
A better blitz player is not in all cases a better chess player
@@hicow6075 yes, exactly! But nobody claimed that.
@@Mukki.Berlin What a useless comment.

Quite charismatic this Jan Gustafsson guy. Great games, and thanks for the upload and commentary!
Didn't know John is so strong..he destroyed Huscenbeth and even Jan is struggling too! Got to check out John's videos more.
Great match Jan....Thanks for playing...we enjoyed it a lot!
Jan proves that he is a GM. Quality in his moves
Impressive performance from both sides :-)
It's a pleasure watching your vids. Thanks to you both
well played , Jan, very good chess both players. very entertaining.... yes, play more matches on chess 24. thank you!
Great match, Jan! Some sharp chess from both players throughout.
Man, these guys are monsters, very strong masters
Very nice match, Jan. Very sportsmanlike of you not to play for the flag and accept draws.
Can you challenge Eric Hansen next Jan ? Please
two years later ... -_-
2 years and 1 month later
3 years later
4 years later
It would've been a beating if not for the accepted draws.
These videos should be titled "Jan's never ending tea cup" lol
I have become addicted to chess vids and commentary, and it's largely your fault and that of your cohorts. Thanks.

Good job, I thought you were to lose, but I knew it would be close.
I have to meet a friend for an over the board game but don't want to leave banter blitz
At 11:17, the immediate f4 instead of Rb1 would have just won the piece right away (...Nd7 Nxd7 and the Ra6 hangs)
why didn’t it start from the beginning?
Very Nice Match thanks to both of you we enjoyed it !!
jan you are so cool. hope you do this more often.
now daniel rensch and hansen and nakamura, yall are awesome
In the 3rd game, after exd what led you to reject Qa5? Was my first instinct and I'm not sure I see whats wrong with it...
Great match!
Jan is a humble snoot. I just made that up, but yeah.
Nice job again Jan, you are my favourite chess commentator
46:22 Ba5 . you win Q or rook. he can defend thid only with Nb6 ,but you gain the pont at e5
How about Kingscrusher?
Kingscrusher is too weak. He is a good annotator but not strong enough to take on any titled player.

It's strange to see John Bartholomew listed as having a 1500 rating.
26:23 yes it was!
Jan, you are just too strong!

is there going to be a rematch any soon?
jan had so many moves out of that tea cup
Jan is such a strong player! He only lost one game
Jan is so classy.
ChessNetwork (Jerry) would be a good match, he has a lot followers also.
+ChessRabbitt wayy too weak for jan :)
+KrazyKrzysztof sickening, they are everywhere
+Tom Smith Maybe, Jan is stronger than I thought.
+ChessRabbitt Jan is a 2640 GM. I'd be surprised if jerry managed a draw

Ginger Gm vs. Jan.....That would be fun.
that would be a slaughter. Simon Williams doesn't play nearly as well as Jan.
he wants to play Nc5 w/t allowing my devious ideas! lmfao :)
Great last game
when u don't know Jan then let others speak
Where's the rematch? John could be stonger by now, maybe Jan isn't keen on it :-)

John is a very tough opponent though and is a force to reckon with when there is considerable time control. Looking forward to a rematch.
I feel bad for the first game :(
I would really like to see match GM Jan against IM ChessNetwork (Jerry) !!!
Sandi Croatia Jerry doesn't play other streamers. Not sure why. Also there's way too much rating disparity between him and Jan.
Jerry is officially an NM, not IM.
Ginger GM is the best..
LOL
"he already has his queen on d8 without losing two tempi from doing queen take d5 followed by queen d8"

chess grandmaster Jan Gustafsson plays starcraft 2 1,000,000 views on youtube
As a starcraft and chess fan: what are you talking about?
if that was like a related video on the side that's what it would say and it would have a million views cuz ohmagawd wow
play against Ginger GM
Nice play Jan but you must sharpen up and try if you can be as chessic imaginative as Tal.
Winning by pinning. :D
i'm so glad he lost because he is always so full of himself
Great match!
