Titled Tuesday: An Average Chess Tuesday

[@waitz27]

Don't stop with the TT's Simon, absolutely love watching these every week. Keep up the brilliant content squire!!

[@Thaddeus9287]

Love your weekly videos Simon! Best chess channel on KZbin.

[@32braveheart]

Game 4 was the most entertaining game of chess I've ever seen. Sober Simon is both a comedic and chess genius.

[@dracandros]

we're a queen down but we've got great compensation, we've got an extra pawn 💪 -Ginger GM

[@j.r.8176]

That pawn technically counts as a queen if it reaches the 8th rank, so you're not really down any material!

[@Wilco114]

@@j.r.8176 Aha, thanks this explanation, it clarifies a lot. It's sometimes hard for me to follow all the tactics and game strategies, it's all going so swift and smooth😉

[@landsgevaer]

Hasn't declaring the queen to be different in value become sexism yet?

[@CrueLoaf]

I missed this sh*t. Great stuff Simon. You crack me up.

[@danjeory3659]

Less than a minute in and we already have "I love hippos - one of the most viscious animals in the ocean..." 😂😂😂😂 Never change Simon!

"Look at your hero" - that's why I'm here my guy

[@whitehalo89]

You beauty! Another tilted Tuesday. Keep them coming, please.

[@john-paulthompson4932]

Been watching you for quite a few years. Just had an operation on my forehead today. Laughed so much I nearly bust my stitches. Wouldn’t want to watch a Titled Tuesday review from anyone else.

[@edf9577]

Yaaaaaaay, the BEST weekly KZbin video keeps coming. Simon is the stuff of legend with these. By MILES !! Awesome stuff dude, love these man.

[@umangmehta2348]

As many views as Hikaru. But you’re the better streamer mate, hands down. Simonnnnn you beautiful ginger you. Legend.

[@milkyBK370]

Watched the first hour. Will resist the urge to watch the rest now and save it for Friday beer time... Once again, thanks for sharing these.

[@BeatrizToro-t4v]

Hahaha calling Faustino Oro "little bastard" made my day! I know you were just mad at yourself. Faustino is the new kid on the street.

[@interstellarbeatteller9306]

The next generation of chess players are a bunch of Ratbags🤣

[@buk0100]

Great result, Simon! Always enjoy your commentating and your wise words, which most of the time let you end in time trouble. its always hard to play against the idols of our youth. At least you "sacrificed" a queen, albeit not in the desired way.

[@interstellarbeatteller9306]

'Crap Hippo' - Simon just invented The Crippo

[@landsgevaer]

Ever seen a hippo crap? Quite a spectacle! "When the shit hits the fan..."

[@interstellarbeatteller9306]

@@landsgevaer Fun fact: Did you know that when Simon became a GM, he had to take the Hippocraptic oath and vow to sac pieces for shits & giggles

[@greybushMEproductions]

...that's actually a "Crappo" A crippled hippo is the "Crippo"

[@interstellarbeatteller9306]

@@greybushMEproductions I won't use that term as it's disrespectful to any crippled Hippo's who might be reading this :)

[@JamesDuBois-e6z]

Practical advice is spot on - nothing beats classical OTB chess and calculation is KEY!

[@franksantana6859]

These Titled Tuesday videos are awesome Simon, please keep playing them! And I wouldn't be sad if you continued the recorded online blitz game playlist.

[@edf9577]

Wow, these games are stressful as all hell. Damn that's brilliant Simon

[@gregdavis1341]

Your Awesome Simon !!🙏🙏

[@zzashkittyzzonna2474]

My day is made when watch vlog from gingergm I like how you sack pieces in an attack Being 1900 rated player I often don’t see all the tactics In the attack

[@somebodysaidthat]

I looked forward to these long videos every tuesday! Thanks, simon!

[@aorange8630]

I'd even listen to ya on a podcast/Radio Mr. S. Reminds me of Laszlo on the Grand Theft Auto Radio station.

[@hanspeters4948]

Hoping that one day Simon remember his own opening course❤

[@PhilNPrice]

People say "lol" all the time, but how often do I _really_ laugh out loud when I'm watching a video by myself? Nearly never. But three times already today. OMG, the "check" at 1:32:42, coming in tempo with the song.... Monty Python ain't in it.

[@PhilNPrice]

Make it 1:32:41

[@johannorman3067]

By watching Simon's games, you can tell that he is an absolutely brilliant attacking chess player. He is just not spending any time working on his chess, so he is not always able to finish off the games. Anyways, thank you very much Simon for the great upload.

[@tonimacaroni1658]

My opening is the Dutch..and i have a .pgn file with only S Williams (The one and only GingerGM) on the black side to learn the darn Dutch. Lots of great Simon games and a lot of great results..A great way to learn the opening !!

[@matteovrizzi]

at 1:36:45 Simon analysing the endings was really impressive as you could see he knows them all really well. Very underrated player😮

[@COCOLEAF1169]

You're my kinda guy. Love watching the videos Ginger

[@TheSpyIII]

That first game was wild! I look forward to these every week - no offence Simon but your voice and analysis is great to fall asleep too! I always have to go back watch later

[@guywheatley4000]

The only thing better than Taco Tuesday, is the GingerGM Titled Tuesday stream. Been spoiled rotten with these since your return to the online fray. Love it!

[@herbyquiff2716]

A brilliant couple of hours of complete mayhem, with some added Nirvana... what's not to love!

[@MJ-xg2ow]

Good to have you here mate - you should put your channel in priority - love it!

[@irderuijter]

Damn Simon love your honesty and your chess!

[@giordithebest]

I love your titled tuesday videos. Can you maybe once again play your killer d4 repertoire? I always thought you got spectacular games when you played that

[@johangamb]

Best chess entertainment! Thank you and well done 👏

[@wenskytercio7558]

😂😂😂😂oh my word, what happened there ? I have to sac my queen

[@Michelt007]

We should salute the courage of GingerGM to play in style, flamboyant attacks! Many GMs take the more mundane path to winning without any risk by just playing better positionally and technically than their opponent!

[@giorgibliadze1151]

Please sir! Keep that coming, pink , blue, green what ever😂❤❤

[@SH-dl4jk]

Watching these are now part of my weekly YT rituals

[@6BU6ROCK6]

moral of the story play the hippo lose you're queen then win.

Another good performance haha thanks Simon. I know I'm just a random, but in your next titled tuesday can you try out a little Catalan action? Cheers

[@SiteReader]

You cheer me up, GingerGM. Keep laughing and don't get tilted, is the important lesson I learn from you.

Simon may not be the best player technically, but he is by far the best to learn from, especially on how to improve your game whilst having fun. He's a proper geezer!

[@MNH73]

Hi Simon. Your streams have been brilliant recently. Is it possible you were at Sussex Uni between 1999-2002 ish? I think I had a chat with you once in the grapevine bar and we talked about Bob Dylan (and maybe chess too). If not, it was some other ginger bloke.

[@GingerGM]

Hey, yeah, that was probably me! I spent most of my life in East Slope bar, but I occasionally ventured out to the Grape Vine. Nice to meet you again 😊

[@MNH73]

​@GingerGM That's Great! Yeah East Slope bar was a bit more intimate and cooler as I remember. Although less intimate than the open mic nights at Park Village. I did English and you were doing I think philosophy or anthropology or something weird like that? You've had such a great career playing and popularising chess which doesn't look like an easy business at all. Well done mate, you've done so well 👏 Michael

[@JeffPHamm]

Speedy Simon Saves the day! :)

Simon you silly git… I love how you talk about the journey back after having your arse handed to you by juniors.. I feel you mate.. I’m losing to a 1500 in a 3 day per move game. He’s hammering me and it’s painful and I feel worthless

[@edvardnilsson9555]

Your feeling of the risk of sending moves to your oppenent is actually supposed to be half proven, but among the shaite we cant discuss online without them ))) sending the botnet to rip us to pieces.

[@peristiloperis7789]

Your fear of loosing to the "little bastard" was so intense that you ended up loosing to him indeed lol

[@JohnexNottsRdfdBlvd]

At least you won the public vote! 🎉

[@dutchy_]

That fifth opponent was very sus. He played almost every perfect move in less than 2 seconds

[@thomasmuller731]

Hello Simon, can you also be watched live on Titeld Tuesday on twitch ?

[@JCivX]

Not since his legal troubles. And I don't blame him. Let's hope that stuff gets resolved and/or forgotten so one day he can interact with the chat again.

Simon is on his best when he is in the f.u. mode😂

[@lwalker8785]

Bohemian Rhapsody is always inspirational!

Simon is playing better chess. Less overthinking and more execution forcing other players to think more.. and ultimately loose on time.
