I really like when you say "Ohh and he finds it" in that tone that shows frustration but also admiration. What a great series!

Feel like getting accused as a “cheater” by chat might be one of the greatest compliments your opponents can get

Really incredible content. I was so invested in the game that I was genuinely dissapointed when your opponent disconnected. Analysis was also super on point

It's always such a shame when they disconnect after playing a great game. Also: Be a 2000+ rated player and play well against an opponent who blunders a piece in the opening, Twitch chat: Is this cheating??!?!

When you're as good as Danya, blundering a piece in the opening is still a main line

as someone under 1000, that game showed me how hard defense can be. I can't help but marvel at some of the tactics that were used this game. defense is truly an art.

Once again a testament to DN being worthy of our attention. Look at how excited he was FOR HIS OPPONENT playing good moves. And the disappointment when he disconnected, truly heartbreaking, but a beautiful game never the less.

4:24 "This move gives us an extra tempo. What shall we do with this tempo? Let me think for a second." Literary one second later: "Well here's my idea" Daniels internal CPU clock is running like x100 compared to my brain...

What a great game, it’s truly amazing how many tactical patterns and ideas you can observe in a chess game. I am not a fan of giving up a piece and try to come back from it format, but this game was totally worth that. I also think, there is no other person on the planet other than Danya who revitalizes the love for the game to “adult improvers”, who are stuck in their daily routines, and do not have much energy to play on a consistent basis, over and over again. We are so lucky to have this channel.

Danya I really appreciate your videos and lessons for free! I just play chess for fun but your insight helps me come up with really cool ideas that makes chess more fun so thanks keep it up

I love the content Daniel!! I think it's awesome how you're so passionate about making quality content to help people improve their play and better understand this wonderful game. You're my favorite pro player!!! Super excited to see how much better you'll get over the years.

I absolutely love how fired up you got in this game and the post-game analysis, A+ content again. Thank you.

I've been watching most of the videos for the last month, it's so instructive. No useless chatter. Extraordinary content

One of my favorite videos to date. Your love for the game is contagious & your commentary during was that of the last moments of a close sporting event.

Love your videos danya, always the highlight of my day, and frankly wish you’d upload daily! Seen all 4 of your KZfaq speed runs from start to finish (even after you said you were only doing one😂). If you run out of content ideas would love to see a series of how to punish inaccurate responses by your opponents in openings, I find this really difficult and sometimes get smashed by those weird moves you see that take you out of book and it’s very frustrating 😂

I honestly forgot midgame that Danya sacrificed a piece. I was thinking "How is this 2000 crushing Danya so easily??"

thank you for making me better at this glorious game. this is one of your most lit speedrun videos to date. ♥️🙏🏼💸

MORE please! Super nice video and super instructive content! Thanks Daniel 😀

Most exciting game of the speedrun! I love to see you fight your way back! Next level chess content!

This was an exciting video! Great play by the opponent and so many ideas. Definitely helpful.

Great video! It's easy to see from this one why people like watching Daniel explain chess. His enthusiasm and excitement shines through.

This was awesome, thank you! The ending is very unfortunate but still a very interesting and fun game

Wow. Incredible analysis, and b5 is just a superstar move! Great video.

Unbelievable content! I was enjoying all 47 minutes! Thank you very much!

Amazing game by both players, really glad to have caught this live on Danya’s stream!

It's awesome to hear how excited you sound for this game. Really seems like you had fun on this one.

Thanks Danya! Love this content!

This is truly amazing content and, at the same time, amazing instructional analysis. I love everything about this video and about this series as a whole. Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication, Danya!

Best episode in recent memory. Bravo! 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻

I'm a big fan of Danya analysis, really think there should be a series of analysing the great games of chess history with chat participating with questions we are all asking at home. I'm not aware of any other chess youtuber that explains so well every move and idea and what was the reasoning behind it, all while being extremely charismatic and delivering some fan service with double questionmark sacrifices for the viewers. Keep up the good work sensei!

this was the best analysis! i feel like i learned a ton

Fascinating game - thank you!

Fun vid. Really enjoyed it

Hugee video! This game was super fun and instructive

My favorite TV shows of 2022 are Barry, Better Call Saul, The Rehearsal, The Boys, and Danya Speedrun. All equally entertaining.

Awesome series! Often i am able to use the ideas in my own games (not this blunder ofcourse). Love from Belgium!!

Very interested when you sacrifice the piece to put yourself in that position. It really opens up a lot of opportunities for us to learn from you that we don't get otherwise. I'd like to see more videos like where you try weird or specific things in games.

I've watched probably 90 percent of your videos or more, THIS IS ONE of the BEST. If you ever do a greatest compilation, mark this video for inclusion of that series.

I could watch hours of Danya explaining engine moves. He manages to make a life lesson about every position.

This material is invaluable thank youuu

One of the best videos in the series for sure👍 Oh My Lands Grl!!!!!!!

Shame about the end but what a great game. You are SO good. I'm trying to learn your gift of spotting the instant drawbacks of my opponents moves. Thanks 🙂

Amazing content!

Great game, brilliant analysis.

I think this is my favorite video yet in the speedrun

This is one of the best speedruns! You should consider continuesly repeating the feat of sacrificing a piece against this level of players. The whole match was very exciting, without saying the analysis was wow!

probably the best video in this series so far

Wow this is great. We were just looking at similar lines in camp today

11:39 I love this phrase "smoke the queen out" Reminds me of a 'Hip tune. _That's where the hornet stung me._ _And I had a feverish dream,_ _with revenge and doubt._ _Tonight we smoke them out._

It's amazing to watch a gm scramble for every resource against tough opposition! Amazing game despite the ending!

What a game. One of your best speed run videos

This is a golden video. Amazing game and analysis, shame about ending though.

I like how Danya is so excited about this game, as it was a real challenge and interesting for him!

Amazing play from both sides

Danya expertly teaching us the number one strategy to win losing positions. pray and wait for your opponent to disconnect

The excellent analysis was tough sledding for me but worthwhile🙏

This is Great and instructional

21:45 my respect for Danya +++++++++

Most brilliant game of the series

This was a great great game and analysis! Intense is an understatement. Disappointing disconnection by the opponent at the end though. Probably got deadlocked at having no moves or ideas to try at that point.

This man is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!

This one was super engaging

great game danya

It looks so easy when you explain everything so well.

this such a complicated great game!

One of my all time favorite games!

I really like how indepth it is. It's perfectly on my level for me to predict the moves I really like it.

You rock broski

'he's gonna get flagged anyways' had me 😂

20:09 return of high pitched voice crack Danya

crazy crazy game

Really exciting game ❤

This was such a fun game!!!

That’s not how chess works! Thank you Danya another great lesson

Yo Danya I appreciate you uploading frequently, watch all your videos Brody your a beast bro, I get drunk a lot at night victim of circumstance I guess, it’s hard out here in Chicago But watching your videos make me happy. Thank you big bro!

Sensei: "what should we take with?" me: "uh...the rook i guess?" Sensei: "we should absolutely take with the bishop" me: "hell yeah man! Absolutely!"

4:35 I only find only 1 or 2 possible moves like Na4 or Rae1, what other good moves are there?

amazing

Man, what a battle

That was insane.

This is one of the craziest games of all speedruns so far

This game felt like an action movie!

thanks

Best content on the internet

Incredible game, really good attacking play by black. The only real mistake he made there was exchanging on g3 I feel. In the position before Nxg3 was played by Black, there was this - I feel - incredible attacking possibility for Black. I was looking at Ne5 with the idea of Nf3, threatening to just move away the queen from defense of g3 (takes on f3 is impossible because it's checkmate). If Qxe2, Nxh2 with a discovered attack on the queen AND threatening checkmate by moving the knight away, so White, I think, HAS to give away the Queen for three minor pieces. Black's attacking is I only did calculations in my head so I wonder if it actually works, because that line is really cool. And the neat part about that position before Nxg3 is that I think White is actually just paralyzed for a moment, and can't really do anything about Ne5-Nf3. Actually, looking at that whole line in a little more detail, I'm not so sure the resulting position is that good for Black, because the attack actually more or less loses its chances after that, and White gains the initiative with d4 quickly. And White could also take on e5 with the Bishop, but then I'm really not sure White can defend without that dark-squared Bishop. It's a really curious one to explore though, because the ideas are so uncommon, and I found it worthwhile to explore because it was a way for Black to immediately try to convert the attack into a winning position.

Got my sensei Speedrun fix tonight

Almost makes you nostalgic for the good old days when opponents played weak moves. Thx

I just learned a ton on that rook lift. So basically you do whatever it takes to get the rook to the 6th. Game over

crazy crazy game x2

That was FANTASTIC He was really enjoying it too Too bad the guy disconnected

Love this game! I’m getting back into Chess and mainly been playing daily chess as hopeless with any time control. I’ve been loving the Speedrun and just assumed I’d be around 1600 as that’s about my daily rating. Danya got me into trying a few 10 min games. Enjoying them but shocked to find I’m 1200-1300! I always lose on time and am down at 5 mins in blink of an eye. Then watch these games and Danya chats his way through every move and clock seems to barely move! He must be apply some dark wizardry!!

In the end Danya was commenting like in a championship broadcast, nice game

19:49 Does Kh1 not blunder the pawn on f2? I’m a bit of a noob so I’m confused

I really love this type of educational content!!! Most of us low ELO players would get more benefit about how to defend in a loosing position than just seeing a GM crushing others!

What an incredible analysis! Thanks you! I am very jealouse of people who can take private lessons with you...

Naniel Daroditsky is my favorite CHESS

Imagine if some GM makes one of these "sac a piece" videos and finds a crazy sacrifice in some opening that nobody found before.

I'm a bit sad your opponent resigned. They played a great game! I think videos like these are really important to the channel because so often you completely outplay players in speedruns that defensive games such as this are far and in between. Personally, my focus with chess has always been puzzles; explosive tactics are complex and beautiful. However, I have not practiced finding practical chances in lost positions a lot, and I love videos like these where you manage to delay defeat until their critical mistakes because I learn the most from them. Thank you :)

I really have to commend you on your content. The depth of explanation is so refreshing and valuable! I usually root for Hikaru lol but I’m definitely gonna be rooting for you too now. That’s all I have for ass kissing for now. Super huge thank you for the content and effort.

Was this game streamed yesterday? I did not get any notification
