Blitz Chess

This is a blitz chess game I played as white with time control 3|2. The opening was the Sicilian Defense, English Attack. It's an opposite sides castling game. The name of the game is to create open lines (pawn breaks) on the side of the board where the enemy king resides. A great emphasis should be placed on time, and each should strive for an initiative.

8:56 you had 0.2 seconds, and then the very next move you had 0.1 seconds. Classic Jerry. Glad you at least pulled off the draw after the botched win with such unreal time pressure.

[@ChessNetwork]

Happy New Year! You are all really awesome, and I truly appreciate your support of this channel. Thank you so much... -Jerry

[@EvilSecondTwin]

+ChessNetwork You're welcome Jerry. I know you were only talking to me.

[@snowfloofcathug]

You too Jerry! :)

[@seabass1864]

Happy New Years to you too! I have a question at 17:32, wouldn't that be checkmate instead of a fork if you move your Queen to H7 which is then supported by the G6 pawn?

[@kasperw5597]

+ChessNetwork Happy new year to you too, keep up the awesome videos!

[@andrewzmorris]

Just move! I swear Jerry's time management will cause me to die of stress one day.

[@snowfloofcathug]

But we love him anyway

[@leerobbo92]

New year's resolution: stay out of time trouble!

[@csgoprime]

These regular videos are great! Thanks for the great content jerry!

[@mehranatashrazm3376]

Happy new year from Iran :) love your channel, I visit youtube every day hoping that you have uploaded new videos

[@ChessNetwork]

+Mehran Atashrazm Hello Iran, and Happy New Year to you too Mehran! :D Thank you for your support.

[@johnbeyers205]

This is an awesome chess-ed for all levels! Thanks, Jerry!!

[@rayclay2]

JERRY >HAPPY NEW YEAR thanks for all you do~!

[@Roarman1214]

Really enjoy your gameplay and commentary!

[@TonyW4rriorz]

At 4:39 can you not play Bishop B6 attack the queen and then take pawn A5?

[@herzwatithink9289]

Nail biter :) Great game Jerry!

[@VreelDanelli]

Yeah, the lichess analysis board is strange. It immediately gives white +0.8 when c6 of the Caro-Kann is played and then slowly goes back to 0.2.

[@MrSlinky]

You could have done pawn to C7 then rook to D8 I suppose, check on him if he decides to promote

[@pinolanuts69]

Hey Jerry, love your videos! Other than Lichess.org and Chess.com, what other chess websites do you use?

[@juancarloskoyi]

good video.

[@AlexTwigg_films]

Great vids Jerry ;)

[@TheNameJohnny]

Nice video homie

[@miladibrahim1068]

Computer doesn't think, it calculates

[@twiho]

Hi there, I love your videos and commentary and all, but why do you keep arguing with stockfish? :D Do you think that you'd be better off because the combinations stockfish is considering a human wouldn't?

[@ChessNetwork]

+Oh no, you didn't! This causes cancer. Thanks. It's only in somewhat closed positions where the evaluation can potentially be off. The version of Stockfish that lichess uses is strong, but it can be off at times.

[@twiho]

+ChessNetwork I think it would make for a very interesting video if you demonstrated something like this. Just sayin. The 3 second tournament is hilarious btw :D

[@daniellugo4272]

Happy New Year Jerry, one question: What is this engine on lichess.org? I think its kind of bad lol

[@XpOzgamingx]

+Daniel Lugo I think it's Stockfish, but don't quote me on that.

[@60xFPS]

+Reece Harrison I'm pretty certain it's Stockfish, but I'm not sure it's as powerful as what you'd normally run on your desktop

[@XpOzgamingx]

Numeroid That sounds about right.

[@ChessNetwork]

Thanks Daniel. Happy New Year to you as well. It's Stockfish. :D

[@styx85]

Stockfish compiled to JavaScript and run in your browser is probably several times slower than ordinary Stockfish running on your desktop. Still might be the strongest JavaScript engine for all I know.

[@lemaire90]

The English attack is not your 'cup of tea'. Pun intended ?

[@xdocholidayxx]

What do you mean when you call it a sharp game? I've heard this used a few times, but have never really found an answer that satisfies me.

[@ChessNetwork]

+xdocholidayxx Sharp...double-edged...critical All terms that basically mean the game can have a decisive result...win for white...win for black...advantages can shift from one side to the other quite easily...or ... "it's complicated". :D

[@Scrubnib]

I always assumed it meant a position in the early/mid game where the next few moves will determine the outcome if you don’t play them correctly and in the right order - ie only one or two available moves must be played next to keep you in the game (thus a sharpening of the options available)… The opposite being a strategic position where there are fewer capture threats on the board and a wider range of moves would still be considered playable

[@michael367]

What the heck bro, pay attention. You're hurting me and you're hurting yourself by falling asleep when you're supposed to be paying attention. C'mon get your caffeine levels up

[@Arkayem]

Ha, you ended this video like one would a phone conversation.

[@ChessNetwork]

:D

[@aliasgharparandoosh8356]

I did a deep analysis with Komodo and I believe 7.Nb3 is an inaccuracy .I have seen even Carlsen plays it but it's not optimal and if you play it against me it's fatal.

[@yamiegg394]

Aliasghar Parandoosh What's better?

[@electricmaster23]

premature premove! :P

[@yamiegg394]

Where was the attack, Jerry?
