CAUTION: This Rapid chess video may put you to sleep #2

[@ChessNetwork]

Here is the first video of this type: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5myiKl5q92doJo I hope you find it useful one way or another. 😊

[@zakarieosmanhassan2486]

It's always useful my master.

[@moesheri9385]

I have two sons, the younger one is four weeks old. Sometimes I don't have time to eat but I still watch your videos even if it's 11 a.m. Thanks Jerry!

[@daryl_sgn5322]

good game

[@coolbeans8682]

Jerry is one of few KZbinrs who understand that long intros are more of an annoyance and time-waster than anything else. I really like that little beep of yours! Have a good one!

[@lorcster6694]

True

[@DavideDF]

Inject this video directly into my veins.

[@FittedSheets]

DUDE, yes. Thank you. I’ve been watching the first one on repeat for like 3 months straight 😂

[@walterp773]

I have problems with my sleeping patterns. However these videos have changed my life. Thanks for letting me sleep again like a baby and teach me chess in the meantime. Really, I love your vids.

[@ChessNetwork]

😎👍

@@ChessNetwork did you ever expect to be a sleep voice to quite the audience?

[@teresacowger2461]

I have intense anxiety at night. I have found the best way to fall asleep without panic attacks is watching or listening to something that is cognitively engaging but not too extreme (like things with high action/emotion/intensity). A LONG time ago I found your videos and they have long been my companion. I was always scared to comment thinking it would be offensive to say that your videos help me sleep. I feel really understood seeing this video today. Thank you Jerry

[@lorcster6694]

Me too, I am starting to get panic attacks when I try force myself to sleep. But the videos help keep my eyes open, then naturally I fall asleep ❤️

[@teresacowger2461]

@@lorcster6694 same. Precisely the same.

[@doppz]

come for the chess commentary, stay because I fell asleep and the video kept playing

[@steviewonder3238]

No matter weather you're playing, analyzing games, or commentating on Dr.Nykerstein, I love all your videos. Thank you so much

[@kordova6805]

The highlight of the video for me is "hi everyone it's Jerry" it is just so straight forward and genuine I love it. Love the content as well but God that with the network sound is just so good lol I want it at the start of every video! Hahaha such a silly thing to love but I love it.

[@leaosolitario9012]

I slept like a baby watching this video.

[@reklawk2616]

My boyfriend and I watch all your videos together and we get so excited when a new one is uploaded. Thank you for creating!

[@joshpinchuk7061]

Watching rapid on double speed is just blitz.

[@lucasterling]

An extra thoughtful blitz match lol

[@DanyloZ]

I fell asleep within literally 20 minutes of my first viewing. These videos are the perfect combination of deeply interesting/engaging and relaxing/somniferous. I'm excited to return to it each night to catch a game or two and then fall asleep. Thank you, Jerry!

[@lorcster6694]

Same here dude, except I fall asleep after like 10 moves lol 🙂

[@rokuronzoni6274]

The longer games allow Jerry to comment more and explain his ideas more. I learn a lot from these videos. Hope more are made. Thanks Jerry

[@foreveriscomposedofnows9616]

Thanks for uploading Jerry, always makes me happy when you have a new video

[@diskyariajetmiko]

Watching the last one only took me 5 nights Jerry, keep up the good work

[@orangenogg]

I put this on and thought "It's been so long since Jerry posted a rapid chess video, there's no way I'm falling asleep right now!" - I was out before move 12

[@mounibagha3089]

I am so glad you dropped a new one, I started to memorize the old one, it became my go to video when I couldn’t sleep :D

[@lorcster6694]

Jerry I hope your chess videos continue to be played forever

[@DonovanMcLean]

Been sleeping on this video for a month already. Best siestas ever.

[@khaleddrk]

Asmr chess. I never finished your vids always finished sleeping after 15 minutes 😂 best chess channel

[@reshad8570]

For a chess enthusiast, dreaming to become a chess master, I cannot emphasis enough how valuable it is to listen to a chess master’s inner voice while playing chess games, and understand how they think. It’s just invaluable. Thank you, Jerry. After many years, you are now like a very good friend to me.

[@edisglogic3116]

Perfect timing for me here in France, I'll be napping after 10 min, your voice is super calming! Thanks Jerry!:)

[@drewhughlett5247]

This is the perfect day for this, thanks Jerry ❤️

[@MacCarell]

Recent big fan, Jerry. Thanks for the content. Lowkey best Chess KZbinr

[@MrMaxtng]

Thanks for your content Jerry. Always a treat.

[@IschmarVI]

can't watch, must sleep

[@Dr.Sortospino]

I was sleeping last night with your Leela vs Stockfish Blitz showdown :D I know what to watch tonight!

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

Enjoyed that Jerry. I work nights and this helped me through another sleepless night. Keep up the good work.

[@michelepisarra9263]

One can fall asleep and then resume the video the next morning. It is worthwhile. Game 3 is a masterpiece

[@alexnorton9018]

10seconds in and I'm already relaxed and dozing off.

[@ohpotatoesandmolasses]

As this video goes on I hit the pause button more and more and more, wondering just what the hell it is you're talking about. So much to learn, thanks.

[@bourne817]

Love Jerry’s videos. Watching him burn time way faster than his opponent is so nerve-racking

[@klausjohnson4133]

Jerry’s soothing voice puts me to sleep even during a 1-minute tournament.

[@NuclearErrorBG]

half way into the second game and i had a good 9 hours sleep !if my calculations are correct i can put myself to sleep for the next whole week with this video! Thanks Jerry!

[@lorcster6694]

I don't make it past game one and keep rewatching it lol

[@HydraliskX]

Me preparing for bed: Yess... precisely.

[@redpenink12]

This is awesome! I love this kind of video :)

[@WtItCbtLoR]

Thank you, Jerry. Your videos are so instructive.

[@BamThwok76]

Goodnight! That's one of the best thing about your vids, but i always come back and figure out where i 'left off'...

[@paulandreotti1639]

7:31 I almost missed the cameo in the bottom right corner, there. 🤣

[@KF1]

Playing along on a nice stone chess set. Satisfying to move the pieces around. Sometimes I yell moves at the board "Bishop takes!" but you can't hear it, and I'm not that good anyway.

[@SixNAC]

Why does everyone fall asleep to these videos? I watch them in the morning to energise myself!

[@intensityI]

I still haven't made it through the first video

[@daphnegrass9579]

Your Blitz games put me to sleep too. :P It's mostly down to the Most ASMR Voice in the world.

[@GutenChad]

i'll admit, it does make me sleepy after a while. but knowing a thought process in a slow enough mode (rapid) allows me to learn better. thank you for these videos!

[@TheRovardotter]

I will totally fall asleep to this video tonight. Great stuff!

[@stevec2227]

This is my favorite thing you do. Thanks!

[@bartman898]

I did start to fall asleep. But I had turkey for dinner. Your videos are great. Very educational, interesting and fun.

[@KF1]

It's 7:30 am now. Been watching for an hour. Aready had a good night's sleep, curently full of coffee and working on projects, but thinking "hm, maybe go lay down for a bit..." Goddamnitman! Great vid btw. Nice rook positions

[@treeman12815]

jerry: where’s my development?, i have a king that doesn’t know where he belongs, lolll

[@linat.1726]

Thanks very much Jerry for this opportunity to follov the moves of a 'proper chess player's' thoughts. (probably a hassle - though the games' time stamps would be awesome .....)

[@Pablo-jq4kf]

Love it. Let's go to bed now

[@joshuaperryman1726]

Love watching the longer games

[@Murdysfer]

The first one was so effective I still haven’t managed to finish watching the whole thing. Seems I’m going to have to do it during the day now

[@simone3781]

I really love these videos. Now I can basically watch this for 2 weeks before going to sleep.

[@yannigogo2863]

One of the best strategists of the game streaming these days , Thank you Jerry !

[@cptnoremac]

Really enjoy these. I did fall asleep during the last game, but I got caught up this morning.

[@cpottzy8944]

My dreams have been answered! Lol I posted on your last video how I would like to see more 10 minute games and here they are! Thank you so much!

[@ahmedfarhat4212]

Used to put your videos on so i can learn chess and sleep better

[@hetomatpu6528]

Rapid and Classical are scarce, but those are the videos I like the most. Thank you for this video. I hope there will be more. Thanks, Jerry!

[@ber7129at]

Jerry this is perfect for my two loves! Chess and sleep. Thank you!

[@Anxiathy]

The common cure for insomnia and my dysmal ELO. haha Truly can't thank you enough for videos like these, Jerry.

[@Zemkezis]

Wow, the multiple storylines; Am I gonna sleep ? Will the mouse be charged before time trouble ? And, in the background, some chess !

[@erickmuller]

Yes! I love these videos. I do actually put them on when I go to sleep. More please 😀

[@hamba1998]

I'm not sure I could fall asleep to this - I learn too much from watching!

[@Tamuzi]

how did you know I sleep to these tourney videos? A compliment, of course.

[@jarlardo]

22:30 How did you manage to get an H-pawn in the A-file? 🧐

[@zippymax1]

Whoa...just woke up. This vid made me sleep for 18 hours!

[@007JackTR]

Love this content, thank you!!!

[@mindscars121]

how strange was just thinking about your 1st one of these today. Nice one Jerry.

[@Bruh-sf1db]

Omg thank you. I needed this because it will help me fall asleep.

[@majidkor.]

I really enjoy watching your videos!

[@markstranathan9912]

Thank you very enjoyable to watch and listen as you consider as many possibilities as you can. I did fall asleep but was able to back track and resume where I left off. Finished watching as I ate breakfast, I wonder if your games help with digestion as well as insomnia. I’ll let you know.

[@pianissimo7121]

It's 12 in the night, i think the timing is perfect!

[@Musicrafter12]

34:40 What an endgame. Plus the star move at 45:13, ...Rc5!.

[@odysseas573]

4:10 It is amazing that Jerry can make simple tactical oversights (there are no tactics with ... Nxe4, the bishop on d6 is hanging) and still be so good. This speaks volumes about his tremendous understanding of the game.

[@Anon_581]

I presume he was thinking of the line Nh4 Nxe5 dxe5 Qxh4 for Black winning a pawn; Black's bishop on d6 is loose, yes, but not hanging. He chose Qe2 so he could play Nh4 next if he wanted and there wouldn't be the Nxe4 trick since Nh4 Nxe5 Qxe5 prevents Qxh4

[@Anon_581]

Ahh there was Nh4 Nxe5 Nxe5 Qxh4 Nxd6 without Qe2 by white, I guess you meant that.

[@thinkinglocal]

your back! :) i can sleep again

[@tckgkljgfl7958]

I watched the entire thing and am still not asleep. Can i get my money back on this?

[@KayOScode]

These have put me to sleep in the past. This one is for while I do dishes and cook diner :)

[@nicksamek12]

My favorite new video series!

[@moesheri9385]

thx Jerry

[@JB-ru4fr]

I prefer the normal voiced ones but I guess its good having a new style to try

[@MrInalbert]

thats why I dont like the caro kann, if you dont know theory perfectly you find yourself in a passive position where you think the light squared pawns at least hold the glue but they really dont because some sac always works for opponent xD

[@CarlosCastroRomero]

I do love watching these in bed. Usually my girlfriend is already snoozing after 5mins (she says your voice is very relaxing), but I have a tendency to stay awake longer. Worth it every time! :) In my opinion, the best move of the tourney was Ba3 at 40:49. I found it very karpovian! Thank you, Jerry!

[@mitchellwilson5770]

Yesss please do more of these

[@MoonBurn13]

Halfway through, and it’s good. I just like when you do the format with more postgame analysis; so that, eg you can point to some piece, useless throughout, and say “Look at this clown here, what’s he doin?”

[@jonathanriojas2177]

Don’t follow my lead/life children but I really should show love to chessnetwork. Whenever I’m drunk or had to many, putting your videos on helps me get to bed quick.

[@dabalciunas]

You must have a really strong binding with your mouse, you complain about it for years! 😁

[@remembergandhi5583]

Fun fact: i abuse chess videos to fall asleep fast

[@dhn1337]

Hey Jerry I actually expect it to do that man. Haha.

[@lorcster6694]

I watch this nearly every night

[@josueflores1404]

I’ve waited too long for this part 2

[@laidgohmes7967]

I fall into a deep sleep just 5 in . Even though it is not sleep time at all
