I am truly glad Danya is reminding me every 2 or 3 minutes that the world is not ending just yet.

I love black's dynamic playstyle, he would probably have won the pawn back or even won the game if he wasn't playing against Danya

"It's not the end of the world, it's the end of our advantage" now I'm going to use this phrase everytime possible, chess related or not. It just sounds great.

If the attention span of the average youtube consumer wouldnt have been ruined by all the short content, this man would have 5 millions subscriber... great instructive content, nobody does it better than danya.

Me: blunders a pawn Danya: don't worry the world is not ending

This was such an exciting game!

Daniel's opponent is underrated I think. I looked at his account and he has a max bullet rating of 2500 and his max blitz is in the 2400's. Hiss max rapid rating is in the 1900's though, so it's not like he got his rating down on purpose.

One of the best parts of my day is tuning into the latest video from GM Daniel Naroditsky. They are always informative and brought professionally and in an enjoyable manner.

Thanks so much for the subtitles! And as usual much love for the videos!!

Giving this a like before I even watch it. One of the only KZfaqrs I do that for.

I really look forward to these. Thanks

More 15 min games please! Danya sharing deeper thought process with more time on the clock

Like a surgeon....thank you for the in depth analysis of the Alapin lines!

love those videos. he explains everything so well

Danya lecture in the morning (6:30AM Germany) on my fav sicilian response, this day can only turn out great!

Thanks!

Excellent video!!!

Thanks so much Danya

Terrific stuff, Danya. Thanks!

Thank you so much for these videos, I hope you turn the ideas explored into a book.

another wonderful and instructive video to watch while eating...… thanks DANYA, you're my man.

amazing game with a amazing fight by the opponent!

Thank you so much, Danya, for your incredible chess content.

thanks

great game

These are the best part of my day lmao

Ideas like “I have connected passers, any endgame is likely good for so let’s trade all the pieces” are so intuitive when they come out of Danya’s mouth, but not so intuitive when I’m playing my games. I bet I don’t miss it next time from the side with the passers or the side without, this content is so helpful.

You know it's going to be a beautiful day when it starts with a notification from Danya!!

I wish we’d get a nf6 alapin. It’s what I’ve played since I was a beginner. The one where you have to play e5 next as white.

what a match!

Qf3 best move! Wow. impressive stuff as usual.

What a game, every move was sharp as hell

What an amazing game

Thanks for sharing your infinite knowledge

Wow great opponent!

I'm not buying the whole "I'm not sure what the theory is here" on move 3 Mr Naroditsky.I've seen you play blitz and bullet chess.No hesitation there and plenty accurate. I love your channel and what you do.Thank you from intermediate players.

You are great teacher Sir. Your fan from Somalia.

Best sensei

Damn, this is good sh*t

“Man I really hope there is a speed run video tonight”

Yeah I have the same no audio problem

Bisguier vs Fischer Stockholm 1962 Interzonal ALAPIN

Regarding the Volga Gambit vs. Benko Gambit naming question, from what I have read, Pal Benko's opinion was that 3. b5 is the Volga Gambit, and only after 4. cxb5 a6 does it become the Benko Gambit.

The Qf6-Qg5 idea by black was fantastic. Probably the best game of the speedrun so far. I wonder how much different the position is at say 9:00 is from a Benoni. It looks exactly the same except with the pawn on e7 instead of d6. Does that affect the ideas at all in the position? Maybe black can more easily open up the center with Re8 and then e6?

WHAT A GAME

What's happening at 29:06?

"The Bishop and the Knight are the heroes of this game"

I can never calculate and play in this type of open board its scary to even look at them playing so good

I think that Bc1-e3:c5-d4 is a good decision. A weaker player, such as myself, likely would try something clumsier, like Rf-e1. Thx

Hi Daniel, I just wanted to ask, can you make a video on how to play chess with yourself (over the board or on PC)? I heard that some masters in the past used to play with themselves and it was very useful. One of my cousins who actually passed away 2 years ago was IM and he used to train like this but no one can tell how he used to do it. So I was wondering if you know this techinque. Thanks in advance for your reply.

fancy

20:54 - Can someone explain why Knight d7 (threaten the rook, rook moves) then knight d6 (discovered attack on the rook while threatening other rook with knight) isn't' mentioned or an option here? IF he plays knight f4, of course... oh, is it because black can threaten mate with queen and knight prior?

Got to love the alapin,very good opening.(Edit : Daniel,what is the book that you refer to as the alapin bible?)

Hey Danya, great video as always! Thank you for the amazing content, you are one of the main reason my chess skills are improving :)) I'm not sure I understand why e4 c5 c3 d5 exd5 Nf6 is worth studying as white since you can always play e4 c5 Nf3 first, and bait black into playing something like Nc6, which after c3 d5 exd5 now black cannot play Nf6 because the c6 knight hangs, has to play Qxd5 and transpose into the main line. Is there something I am missing? I personally quite like this line as black and would like to make it my main repertoire, but I currently do not have a great answer to e4 c5 Nf3. I thank anyone in advance for any kind of advice :)

What's TLDR? The Lesson of Daniel Raroditsky? :)

If chess instruction had an ELO, Danya would be 3200.

What does he mean by Frankfurt airport move he keeps bringing it up?

themagnuscarlsen What would you do here at 29:35 video time?

"get out of my room woman, master danya dropped another video!"

@DanielNaroditsky @ClyderBarber can you link the Aleppan Bible book?

I want to get this Alapin Bible you talk about all the time, but it is unfortunately out of print, and it seems to be impossible to find anywhere

For the blessings of the algorithm.

41:36

39:05

Religious cult: It's the end of the world! Sensei: No, it's not!

i cant find the alapin course he mentioned at 31:40 on chessable. anyone know why?

Would you consider alapin and mannaquin a rhyme?

Audio doesn't work :(

I noticed that in the older streams Danya pronounced “Sicilian” differently, more like with a Z sound “Sizilian”, but now he pronounces it the standard way. Does anybody have any idea why that is?

"This is definitely a gap that we need to fill for both sides..." - is the sexiest thing I've heard in a chess tutorial in a while.

I'm surprised at how many "benoni" structures you get as a 1.e4 player :D

No sound?

35:54 Lmao

World War III could break out overnight and Danya can say “it’s not the end of the world” and I would take his word.

What is the name of the "Alapin bible" Danya keeps reffering to?

Please make a video on queen vs rook endgame pleaseeeeeeeee please🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Only 360p?

It would be nice to rematch him/her

Boi, I have never caught your video this early, it's 12:21 am and I watching a chess game smh.

What happened at 29:07

Something is wrong with the audio, i think

Is there no audio for everyone or is it just me?

Is it me or is there no audio?

There is no audio

IQP

one for the algo

Ok next speed run you are banned from playing the Alapin. 😂

Hmmm

It feels like there is huge gap between 1700 and 1900 ELO players. This guy didn't make any mistakes till time pressure

I totally see myself losing to the indian guy

It seems like he’s screen snipping

earlyy

After literal years of watching Danya, I’m within the first 10 people to click on a new upload. I’m truly honored

Why's it gotta be a "soviet" skoolboi? Why not a Russian's cruelboi?

Video quality does not match video quality.

I swear some of these people that play Daniel are just stream sniping. He will say something, then his opponents will play the exact move he was just describing.

Hikaru is way better than you aka 9 - 1. You need to humble yourself and admit Hikaru is simply a superior chess player. Have a nice Day

Great video!
