[@lukacalov1988]

Can we get a speedrun with only Russian school boy moves?

[@psaini1999]

The Sensei Speedrun, at least till the point he got bored and started playing Smith Morra

[@justarandomanimegirlpassin5341]

Well the point of these speedrun videos is to function like a chess learning library so its probably no from danya but still lmao

[@jimmymcnulty4759]

I d prefer a speedrun with only Danya style moves, where he just goes crazy at every game and sacrifice as many pieces as possible.

[@ryanbeltran5122]

Then Russian school girl next

[@kbeeps141]

Actually this speedrun which began as the Top Theory speedrun was supposed to be as such

[@user-ky1wz1dy8k]

*reads the title* Danya in the first 10 seconds: “we’re about to get a serious opponent”

[@geoffreymak000]

I love seeing Danya pressing that “archive” button.

[@TravisHenning0]

Oooh yeah, I'm glad I'm not the only one haha.

[@dayoldeggplant]

What does it mean? That he likes the game?

[@ui264]

​@@dayoldeggplant It means that he wants to learn more about his opponent. (Either in a positive way or a negative way. Both intriguing as a viewer.)

[@maxronaldo00]

@@dayoldeggplant He usually does that if he suspects his opponent is cheating

[@mariuszpudzianowski8400]

@@maxronaldo00 Nah, he does that in a loooot of games, even when he's completely crushing - I believe he just goes through the game in his free time, there might be something interesting there even for a GM

[@tejasgupta7492]

The best line of the video 10:39 "But this is the NARODITSKY school"

[@thesecondderivative8967]

22:51 That type of rook trap is something I will keep in my arsenal now. Thanks Danya.

[@vanq86]

I've been trying to teach my son some chess techniques following your pawn endgame videos, and as I was explaining "trousers" to him, he surprised me with a genius analogy he uses to conceptualize it. He thinks of the position as "leaky pipes", where water (the pawns) is dripping down the pipes (open files), and the opponent's King is trying to catch the water drops with a bucket so his floor doesn't get wet (pawns promote). It seemed so intuitive and simple that we call it 'leaky pipes' now instead of trousers.

[@klausheinherfaur6932]

Your son's a genius, man

[@rick4400]

@@klausheinherfaur6932 I started a children's chess club in Waxhaw, NC. A five year old explained how he sees the knight move as this: move the knight one square in the horizontal or vertical direction, and then from there move to the desired diagonal square!

[@tonybernard4444]

I love that the way to beat a silly opening is not to flail at him and help him develop, but to simply be better and exploit his weaknesses.

[@rbarreira2]

Yeah don't give in to the mind games.

[@mevansthechemist]

21:48 The ol’ “building a roof over the rook” trick! Nice one, Daniel. Always fun to see these kinds of openings dismantled.

[@pakasokoste]

Those finals moves man, totally disarmed the opponent.

[@robertmalski3736]

One of the best ways to start a day is to watch your speed run game, thank you Danya.

[@benoitb.3679]

"2049... We're gonna get a serious opponent" 2...Kf7 😐

[@alsatusmd1A13]

When I consider 1…f6, I like to think of it as the key move of a mirrored Caro-Kann system: 1.d4 f6.

[@snowqueen549]

Well it still serious game after 3 move lol

[@DarthVader-wk9sd]

@@alsatusmd1A13 No?

[@DarthVader-wk9sd]

@@alsatusmd1A13 If the games goes d4, f6, e4, e5, dxe5 is a free pawn, if fxe5 white is plus 4 and completely winning lmao

[@matthalifax8973]

Jeez, the way you remember old ideas and track the whole board so well is amazing

[@mikek3459]

Great game Danya with lovely explanation & analyzing as always. That quote of yours, brilliant: "Im struggling also with these kind of positions, the only person who don't struggle is Magnus" xD Keep up your great vids and work along with the chess games. Cheers!

[@michaelkeene3051]

Love your work Daniel!

[@flipsidenick9190]

Love seeing ya Mr. Naroditsky! Thank you for your amazing content, it has been instrumental in my journey with chess and I will continue to watch every time new videos come out. :)

[@kacywilliams1]

Very instructive. Thank you

[@Diffusion8]

Real background is back! Good on ya Danya, love your work! 💪🏼👏🏻

[@shanastroskyphazer8172]

great game & great tips & tricks thanks Danya !!

[@k4sature]

those tactics at the end just amazing

[@worsethanjoerogan8061]

The way you punish Kf7 is Kf3

[@sebastienfixary1442]

Lmao the poor guy unleashed the bongcloud against the worst possible opponent

[@Majo_404]

37:30 „And then you leap over to capture the black king“

[@hugogyllenram876]

Best way to spend my evening while eating dinner. Thank you danya!

[@davewestner]

Enjoyed this game. Cheers to the opponent for playing that opening....thx!

[@thechef1010]

Daaamn Bongcloud speedrun!

[@bernardthefourth]

Good game. That rook trap was really instructive. I haven't seen that before. I'd like to see some more content covering some of the really classic games, those are great.

[@bardia8259]

Amazing 🔥 you're the best sensei ♥️

[@RobFraser]

“But this is the Naroditsky School” ❤

[@esmaeilrostami955]

Thank you

[@noahjones1721]

This is great 😂

[@aaronbrumley8937]

About time you start making more videos

[@lucassipe9448]

We missed you king

[@thethinker3888]

18:39 Taking the extra pawn on a7 actually looks quite dangerous because there might be ideas of c6 which restricts the light-squared bishop’s escape squares and black might gain quite a bit of activity on the queenside. Maybe Bxa7 c6 and immediately Be3? Retreating everything? Idk.

[@Sun-gs6hq]

Good video

[@ohpotatoesandmolasses]

Begging a pawn push to get a discovered attack god damn. Thanks for the videos.

[@chrischristian7511]

I too… bong clouded during this video 😁

[@aero7848]

Lol

[@BobChess]

Me on my way to beat Hikaru after watching this video:

[@guillermovallejo8119]

Nice, so after 10 tactical moves extremely difficult to see you finally punish your opponent. Very instructive video tho, I think his videos are actually the ones I learn the most!

[@spark5010]

it is so satisfying to see dubious Openings getting crushed

[@mariuszpudzianowski8400]

Finally analyzing some useful opening!

[@persis7176]

Naroditsky School🔥

[@Mad-ws3wd]

good game i like

[@SteveDickman1]

Hope you have been enjoying the Netherlands 🇳🇱

[@charlesfromm6133]

Hey Danya, great video. Can someone explain why after Nf4 black can't cling to the pawn with Kf7 back?

[@modolief]

The Russian schoolboy method is Bxe6, but this is the Naroditsky school .... 'Nuff said.

[@smashergrilla954]

You was styling on him

[@ItzGlottis]

Danya with the amazing content as always. Do yo do online chess lessons? If yes I would really like you to coach me.

[@davidoconnor1773]

13:38 lol, Danya is so random sometimes!

[@rbarreira2]

He was probably reacting to a live chat message.

Everytime Даня uploads, I get a little better at chess. Thank you based Даня!

[@bloodcake1337]

Кринг

[@rondeau_choysky6663]

Always glad to see trolls get crushed

[@rbr4784]

A sacrifice speed run is interesting idea... must sacrifice at least a piece every game

[@mohamedb737]

on the last sequence I think Bh6 first then Bc1 with discovery is better

[@bryanliang3232]

You should rebrand the Jobava london course and start referring to it as the Jobava system from now on. I've tried recommending it to friends and everyone assumes that it is a boring opening because of the "london" part of the name.

[@UNKNOWN5427]

22:32 calling it ra1 im hoping im right that move is so nice

[@hikabongnakacloud4944]

I wait for your videos and check everyday for new upload. Please try to upload videos more often🙁

[@Anandmogul]

What a chad

[@LKGie]

"So probably why I would do, is follow the engine suggestion" I would most likely too... 30:17

[@rbarreira2]

Amazingly Stockfish likes 3. a3 after Black's troll move.

[@filippersson4826]

22:33 Is rook a1 a move here as well?

[@gestolen_fiets]

C'mon I've been waiting a whole week for another speedrun and the man plays bongcloud😭😭

[@Garotoso]

I thought the same at first, but then I realized this game addresses my difficulty to punish trolling openings. it's a very interesting theme. besides, the rook trap is quite nice to learn.

[@newsbuster292]

I also had my doubts about investing time but I did and find it instructive again. More often than not, games turn out to be outside of conventional theory and you have to adept to that. This helps improve my thinking process, probably a lot. (had my best chess night ever yesterday).

[@HoarselyCry]

I see Danya, I am happy.

[@disco_sugar]

cool rook trap

[@rick4400]

Isn't this the anonymous game that a lot of people thought was Bobby Fischer? Way back decales ago?

[@berrymacokinya8131]

Can you make “Russian Schoolboy” your next speed run name…? 😂

[@jerryyi3343]

Danya and bongcloud best combo

[@michaelenyart5789]

Does anybody know what he meant when he said that the opponent was provisional?

[@roach6992]

Im struggling to explain. When his opponent wins or loses his opponent is gaining or losing hundreds of elo at a time cuz he doesnt have enough games played yet, and so his rating isnt really a true reflection of his strength.

[@RG001100]

"provision" is providing/supplying.. when you're a new player in a pool of players, it's not clear what your elo should be, but you're provided with some elo, and it will take some games before it settles to a more accurate elo.

[@Falcontf]

Did anyone else hear crackling with the audio ? Not sure if it was the mic or something else but it wasn’t my side since his other videos played fine 😊

[@AdrienW]

ye, I noticed it happens in a decent amount of his videos. Usually not this bad though

[@dominicwanzer2057]

Barnes is a bad man boy I tell you.

[@kuppdaballsstrokedastaff429]

Ahh finally a game with a gentlemanly opening

[@monsignorjames]

Doesnt Nh5 win f6 pawn? Instead of knight back to d5

[@niggo2448]

why are his drawn arrows of different colors

[@the1thomaster912]

The first thing Danya said was: Atleast we are getting a serious opponent. And then he plays Kf7

[@louismyers8845]

First ever bongcloud game in a danya speed run?

[@konodavideda5981]

Danya actually played the bongcloud himself. He also was from the black side and it was a queen's gambit if I'm not mistaken.

[@louismyers8845]

​@@konodavideda5981😂 no way!
