Dutch Defense, Leningrad - Standard chess #2

[@ChessNetwork]

Standard #chess with a 15|2 time control Thank you in advance for watching... Enjoy! :)

[@superfisto]

Thanks for playing. More Tata analysis?

[@Schutzstafell]

Been a long time coming, these standard games. Blitz with commentary is always instructional, but I think there's more to be taught in long games.

[@limaalphacharlie]

These longer chess games are such a big help! Keep it up Jerry.

[@pastorseanB]

Love these standard games, super instructive and helpful. Thank you for doing these and please do a couple hundred more as soon as you can!

[@MaccabeeRidah]

Jerry, first of all, thanks for another great video. I have been watching/following you for a long, looong time now. Really great work, educational wise AND game-promoting wise. The thing I really respect is you ability to make chess entertaining for kibitzers even with little to no knowledge of chess. It is like watching a movie/tv show. And yet there is so much stuff to get out/learn from your videos, even for very high ranking players. Great combination of chess 101 + complex analysis + entertaining on top of everything else. I salute to you! I have one question for you. What would be your suggestion as a best way to learn openings, considering million of different variations each has. Is it purely based on learning one opening at time, and then going through all different variations till you perfect it, or at least, learn to utilize it, then proceeding to another, or is there some other, more efficient way to grasp it all, due to enormous number of openings and variations? If you had a student who came to you, with just basic knowledge of chess, how would you direct them, where to start with whole openings+variations thing, and which approach to take in order to grasp them more efficiently? Thanks in advance, and keep it up, your work is truly magnificent!

[@MaccabeeRidah]

***** I usually don't post comments on youtube videos, really rarely. So from time to time, it isn't so much of a trouble to write a longer one. I think this is first time I have ever commented on one of Jerry's videos, after so many years of following him. :) In any case, I couldn't agree more. Jerry is the man!

[@Checkm8isFEELINGood]

Start with studying open games: 1.e4 e5. Then, smoothly shift to semi-open games 1.e4 c5, or 1.e4 e6, e.t.c., If you ever reach FIDE Elo 2000, then consider swithcing to closed games: 1.d4 d5 e.t.c.

[@MaccabeeRidah]

Thanks for suggestions Timur. I am big chess fan, but skill-wise, I am so far away from FIDE 2000 I couldn't even describe it to you. :) But I will follow your advise!

[@Checkm8isFEELINGood]

MaccabeeRidah Do you play chess in the internet?

[@MaccabeeRidah]

Yes, I have been playing it from time to time on instantchess, and just recently I started on ChessCube. I have spent years watching it, but started playing it more recently. Trying to actively play it now.

[@shmurdy]

i always love watching longer games because you cover more options. I kinda hate how sometimes you might completely ignore my first thoughts for a move. every one thinks differently and this way i can see what you think and what i think. it's really good for improving my chess.

[@grasefulcamerahd2090]

jerry i have seen very many of your warzone speed chess tournaments and you my friend are an absolute genious

[@vincentbouin02]

hello Jerry, just discover your videos, i watch 2 so far, i am hooked, your insights are so " ", can't find a word for funny smart intelligent addictive, all in one, Thanks Thanks again

[@ChessNetwork]

😎👍🏼

[@128boilermaker99]

Jerry you're the best! You make chess look so easy. My girl friend even enjoys watching your streams and she never played chess until she started watching you.

[@Ghuzultyy]

More of this!! I like playing guess the move with these videos.

[@samuelhenderson6772]

jerry you are the best chess commentator on youtube. thank you for having long standard chess game, i learn a lot niqa. & do make a guide, where we can get fishstock or any kind of chess engine, step by step

[@TVARandom]

Loving these long videos, Jerry! I'm not a very good chess player (yet?) so it really helps when you explain everything you do. Keep it up :)

[@PranavThawani]

Really like the commentary while you play👌

[@MrSmith7811]

Hey Jerry, some really insightful commentary as always. From 12:00-14:30 or so, it was interesting to hear your thought process. I was just reading about this phenomenon called the einstellung effect. (You can check it on wikipedia) I wonder if making commentary while playing makes you more prone to this effect.

[@MassimilianoFarris]

wow you finally developed your dark square's bishop on move 20. very interesting analysis all through the game, always instructive to hear your thoughts considering candidates moves during the game. Thnx very much for the video. when will you release some on those funny ones with 1mins bullet tournament on chesscube? :-D

[@Ghuzultyy]

Some notes about the game after my "guess the move" exercise: N1: 6.e4? fxe4 7.Nxe4 Nxe4 8.Bxe4 c5! is very strong for black N2: 7.Qb3?! isn't a favorite of Stockfish since the simple 8...d5 gives black a fine position. e5 square is not that big of a deal here. 7.Nge2 was probably better. N3: 14.Qb1!? was an interesting way to decline the queen trade. N4: The a4-Ba3-b5 plan could maybe be executed earlier with 17.a4!? N5: The creative defense 27...Nxe3!? was still losing after 28.fxe3 Rxe3 29.Nc4!

[@coolmantay]

Jerry, next time you should try and find a strong titled opponent to play a standard game against. Will be really interesting win or lose!

[@ashrafsamir8818]

Hi Jerry , great job as usual. I think we need a progressive series about different chess openings with possible variations

[@radmagichat]

Really like seeing this 1 on 1 standard time control

[@JurasicDaniel]

I like this format a lot. I can improve my game a lot when you tell us your thoughts. Give us more longer games :-)

[@Dr1nc]

Awesome game, keep them coming!

[@s.g.johnson3403]

Lol from move 8 both Jerry and his opponent played the EXACT same line from Chess Base's Live Book.

[@BlackPawnMartyr]

Tough competitive game! Def liked it so i clicked on the like button!

[@aliriano15]

Haha were those "-town" expresions a Danny Rensch reference?

[@Bazhul]

Was just about to go to sleep and you bomb me with interesting chess videos, not cool Jerry ;)

[@PerZetterberg]

What about 13. b3. Stopping Bc4 and gives the black squared bishop a way out (Ba3)?

[@peterlerock]

Really love all your videos, just one thing: I've noticed you seem to spend/invest/waste (?) a lot of time on the very first moves. In some of your videos, you're down a couple minutes just because of this (here: 4 minutes in 7 moves). Do you really need all these thoughts and calculations right there? Wouldn't it be better to have more time in mid and lategame?

[@sanitary103]

standard time controls are great for commentary.

[@elihowitt4107]

Incredible vid

[@francisbardoel]

nice analysis,thanks

[@Unluckydisires]

Jerry, whatever did happen to your 4200 rating?

[@mattkelly4881]

that was his bullet rating, and i don't know the full story. It might be rating deflation, or something else. But i personally think it was the beast

[@vaibhav1933]

matt kelly ROFL.. It must be 2400 not 4200...nobody's rating in any format is dat high(not even engines) Btw jerry dropped from 2400 coz he played computer-4-impossible. Al least that's what i think

[@mattkelly4881]

Vaibhav Shah go to chess.com, find jerrys account, it is chess network. Look at his bullet rating section and it will say highest is: 4200 December 3, 2009.

[@mattkelly4881]

Vaibhav Shah and the beast is computer-4-impossible

[@mohamedkhouchchane441]

1.d4 is my favorite opening

[@Jahnovy]

i don't think you ever have changed the screen region to be on the game only, instead of the whole internet page, it would be great though if you did, for more enjoyable watch IMO, thanks

[@jboortz83]

I concur!

[@TheN00bPolice]

Please upload more blitz jerry!!!

[@mwoolner]

How are you using an engine to review your chess.com game? If I want to do that I have to copy the pgn out and put it into another program (like scid vs pc.) I'd much prefer to do it in this way.

[@dan_tr4pd00r]

Will the goofing about on lichess be published on youtube, Jerry?

[@aleksandereggum9321]

Right? Epic stream. More streaming Jerry :)

[@ChessNetwork]

Hi Ho Wolverhampton I may upload a couple parts from that stream.

[@UnderAcheiver1]

ChessNetwork Woohoo!

[@DudeMakeLoveNotWar]

When did that happen?

[@dan_tr4pd00r]

ncolaros a few days ago on twitch

[@Gixeer75]

nice game ... gg

[@Jackamo150]

what does gl mean?

[@gamersunlimited321r.plopli2]

Good luck

[@mohd1nagyyyyy]

@18:00 why not Nc4 ?

[@chesscraze4171]

Mohd Nagy Bxc4 or Nxc3.

[@onegerard1]

good sounds ...I don't know about you all ...(whispered) i can hear him thinking :)

[@andy4274]

Ur opponent is a fan

[@HabboUndesGotswag]

The reason behind Nh3 is because of f3.

[@79wouter]

How about a game with unlimited time, against a computer? You can think about a move maybe a whole month (like when you're in the shower), or a year. You can come to use a different mode of thinking, where the thoughts come to you effortlessly.

[@nanami3693]

Hope my chess level gets above 2000

[@79wouter]

Hindus (I believe) have a saying that money will come if you meditate well. Karma is really a thing. What you need to do is just be more open and tell more. It's not from this time to hide certain information out of a sense of decency. For example it's not indecent to give out your bank account number. Only good can come out of it. It's not inappropriate to talk about your sex life. If someone doesn't want to hear it, then it's up to them to tune out. See what I mean?

[@79wouter]

Instead of using the advertising you use, it may be better to just make a few recommendations verbally. Like 'go to so and so store to get a well made chess board'. There is a scale between advertisement, and flow of information. What the world needs is the latter. The advertisement you are using now may seem clever and powerful, but you really have no idea who you're promoting, they might not correspond with your ideals and what you find important.

[@claudiucojobv]

Why do you refer to your opponent as they ? LOL

[@ChessNetwork]

I'm unaware of the gender of my opponent, so using the "singular they" is commonplace. If you watch any games I play against the computer, you'd have a better laugh. I can't seem to shake calling the computer a 'he'. :)

[@claudiucojobv]

Well you could always use "he" the opponent generically speaking :D
