Longer Chess Games #55 Out of Theory on Move 6!?

[@TheClyde1993]

I love These longer games. Please Keep them coming. Learning so much from These. Thank you!

[@dukereg]

Great to see games like this where it's all about fun and creativity and daring! Much more interesting than having 15 moves of committee-approved theory before you you are allowed to show your own style.

[@milankotevski1663]

That feeling when you thought your game was a masterpiece, but then you turn on the engine after the game.

[@nathanhilker8058]

The opening you played is very close to a rare idea in the Blackmar Diemer Gambit against the Lemberger defense: 1.d4 d5 2.e4 dxe4 3.Nc3 e5 4.Qh5 exd4 5.Bc4 (Sneider Attack), with the difference of black having the bishop on d7 and the c pawns being off the board.

[@TheBlade1985]

Thank you for all the entertaining as well as insightful content Simon! Shout out!

[@sebastiandierks7919]

I love you for attacks like this. Noone still plays romantic chess like this and you're the best. Also I liked the deep calculations you explained, not just general ideas for beginners. Please keep it higher level in your long play game videos. And I want to say you're very generous for showing 18 hours of your DVDs for free, thanks for everything Simon!

Simon: Computer's are flawed, think for yourself. Computer: Pushing Harry is strong, beep boop, Simon plays well. Simon: Well computers arent *all wrong*

[@guillermoblanco8056]

Drunken alphazero has done it again! Simon you style of playing is so refreshing! You are the best player in my heart.

[@johnbumster3950]

Great video

[@LoneWolf_2308]

With move 6, move 7 and finally MOVE EIGHT Paul Morphy, Bobby Fischer and even Tal would be proud of you for sure...

[@michaelhaag3367]

45:30, thats so cute somehow, love your vids!

[@psychoreaper86]

Bb5! Drunken Ginger Attack

[@juvenalredivius1077]

Ginger Ale attack, but actual ale.

[@SuperYtc1]

No one: Simon: Hello Captain Bumratty.

[@kcelibrarian5951]

gingergm now i knew the french and black lion want i want to play

[@smashu2]

Exchange slav is best objective line vs Slav not boring at all it never end in a draw.

[@aleks_saint]

amazing stuff :)

[@giannotti7777]

To be fair: the Exchange Slav is not as dull as the Exchange French ;)

[@giannotti7777]

@TheGuy WhoPlaysChess drawishness('exchange french') = drawishness('exchange slav') * 1000000 😁

[@justinperry7550]

I stopped playing the French because of the exchange.

[@giannotti7777]

@TheGuy WhoPlaysChess man... 1) Every opening is fkin exiting when you see Magnus vs Ding or whichever Super-GM you fancy watching. 2) Exchange French !== Advance French (or the Poisoned Pawn Variation or even the King's Indian Attack).

[@Tobi-pn2xs]

@@giannotti7777 depends. Magnus plays to have fun and Ding's a very recourseful and ambitious player but if you look at most super GM games that don't make it on KZbin... let's just say you'll quickly realize why they didn't make it^^.

[@BonkLoud]

The French defense itself is so tasteless

[@michakonieczko6875]

Thanks for free entertainment Simon. Good game.

[@greatwolf.]

Once you find the needle in the haystack of lines of course it's obvious. That Aldo lol

[@Backupdancerr]

Simon, can you recommend a DVD for a noob?:) i am unrated and around 1400 on chess.com (blitz)

[@starship1701]

ah man I wish I had known about all of those videos that were going to be shown for free

[@pianochess1882]

Was Kf1 really justified? I know the bishop could be used to get the knight out, but couldn’t he just as well have used his bishop to prevent that (i.e. Bd6 or Ba5)?

[@HipHopAn0n]

If Kf1, Bd6 maybe then Bxf7 and Bg5+ to come for White. But yeah Blacks bishop didnt ultimately serve any purpose on b4

[@Traumtheater0]

Steinitz would be proud!

[@ThomasLoganRitchie]

After 8...Qe7 9.Nd5, Black has the simple 9...Nf6!

[@juvenalredivius1077]

26:56 What about bg5-g6 bxf6-gxh5 bxh8-dxc3 bxc3?

[@darkwingdawg8797]

a bit unsound = white is a lot worse :D Haha. Great stuff as usual!

[@beniaminobisonbis5756]

Exchange french is winnjng for black: ask Korcnoj or Psakhis

[@SuperYtc1]

Hackney Chess club must have loved you. It's not often you see a grandmaster in a university chess team.

[@Robertl-xz6yl]

Uranus he went to Brighton uni, I don’t even know if Hackney have a uni team they aren’t in the UK uni chess league if they do. I think Hackney was just a normal chess club (non uni)

[@FadedShirt]

Simon can we know what computer do you use to analized after the game ?

[@AlligatorTradingGroup]

It's chess.com analysis

[@chrisiver8506]

stockfish

[@qwvpv]

Blair fell for the old anti-grischuk forfeit!

[@kinetickame1203]

Got to try the line ! www.chess.com/live/game/4693748692 And to great success 😀

[@khg.629]

So you are going to record 18 hours of that dvd in this KZbin channel and you left it on your channel? If it is true, then you are a freaking bloody super generous gentleman! And I will shut up and be a ginger ninja!

[@sebastiandierks7919]

I think he will just stream it on twitch and not save it. I mean "just", still very generous.

[@Burak.a.b]

First commemt

[@kaihaas4708]

He is nice but he is really the worst GM on the planet , haha..
