Recovering After a Blunder!! | Scandinavian | The Sensei Speedrun | GM Naroditsky

[@matthewrigby6089]

Don't get me wrong, I've been loving the Dina & Danya uploads, but the speed run is what brings the boys to the yard.

I don't mind collaboration with Dina, but would be more fun if it's speenrun instead of the bullets

[@finn-christensen]

My favorite speedrun theme is when Daniel is explaining potential solutions to a relatively complex threat the opponent is making, and he ever so briefly pauses to tell the chat that the move they're suggesting blunders mate in one.

[@theMaculaDensa]

Danya, please never apologize for mouse-slips and mistakes! They often lead to unique instructional games and make for great entertainment

[@aranahjohnson9640]

Totally agree! Danya is always very cautious about being a great example and playing well for us and that's awesome but mouse slips / blunders happen and it can be very instructive and relatable!

[@Malik-zf3cn]

What is hilarious is the engine's top move was Bf1 which was his mouse slip, +2 for white. If Ne5 like he wanted it equalizes to +0.35 due to Nxe5.

[@TromboneMaster95]

Stockfish also mouse slipped and is trying to justify it

[@kennethbucsko8159]

i thought even in that line he wins a piece by recapturing the knight with the pawn forking rook and bishop.

[@danmcgoogleaccount6954]

​@@kennethbucsko8159 at the end of that line white can't defend the knight on d2 so black wins the piece back.

"Always Play Bishop F1" - Ben Finegold

[@Tinil0]

My engine (not a very good one) just rates it as a good move. Not the best, but perfectly fine. It's hilarious because the mental hangup over the mouseslip was infinitely worse than the mouseslip for real. We need to take a second after a mouseslip to calm down and not let it affect our play is the lesson here.

[@matthewrigby6089]

As Danya always says: A blunder is often followed by another blunder! True even for GMs, as we just saw. He was upset about the mouse slip and didn't think g4 through!

[@Rundik]

It's not what he meant. He meant the opposite side often also blunders

[@jimdiroffii]

This was one of my favorite games since it felt more realistic to my level. Except for that endgame! Great lesson. Thanks again.

[@godfreyofbouillon966]

"That seems to work" is exactly how I play chess! Minus that calculating part.

[@drumjosh1987]

I can relate lol

[@abcdef-mf5nb]

That mouse slip is so relatable, just that when I mouse slip I lose my queen, but Danya makes it looks like the Bishop made a tactical retreat.

[@mrpossibilities]

Man, that was rough: First a mouse slip and then a BLUNDER. Good job on recovering from those two blows. Very instructive.

[@discosugar]

Danya: Sorry for the mouse slip Also Danya: deconstructs entire piece architecture for easy gg

Hi, Danya! I'm not that young anymore, so it's not always easy to memorize all the ideas you explain, but I really enjoy watching this series and still find it very useful for my understanding of the game

[@Bf7]

So, they say luck doesn't exist in chess, but I think we just witnessed a case here: at move 14, when he mouseslipped, he didn't play the blunder 14.Ne5, which he thought was best, but instead it would have lost a lot of his advantage (from almost +3 to just around +0.50). With that 14.Bf1 mouseslip, he played the best engine move! (together with 14.Ne4). Now, if this isn't luck in chess! ;-)

What a comeback, very well played! And as other commenters said, «Dina and Danya» is nice and all, but the Speedrun is just top content.

[@arezzo5340]

Danya! You blundering and mouse slipping is so educative, because we blunder all the time, and playing a lost position isn't easy.

[@joshinnc9882]

I feel like I could play as good as Danya as his moves and explanations make perfect sense as I watch. Then i play some, and stay in a constant state of discombobulation. Then I watch more DN and he does that thing where he see's a tactic and puts his head in his hands and says "there there there there, there there, there there there there, there there. ok it works." And then I want to delete my chess account because I have no idea how the hell he just did that in his head and I realize I am not even in the same stratosphere as a skilled player like that.

I've had multiple mouseslips recently. It's nice seeing a proper way to convert a blunder.

[@morganandreason]

Games like this are generally more entertaining than ones where you play very solidly for the first 15-20 moves and then get to capitalise on a mistake by your opponent. It's also more realistic for the level of players who sub to your channel. I suggested to Gotham that he make a speedrun series where on move 15, his subs would decide which blunder to make - call it the "blunder recovery speedrun".

[@WCFAsyncQueryable]

At 28:51, why not Rb8 instead of moving the pawn (when the black queen is still in a2)?

[@mridgaf3233]

2... Nf6 and 3... c6 was my main repertoire vs 1. e4 in blitz and bullet for years and I even played it occasionally OTB and took my first 2000s scalp with it when I was a kid. The e6 idea is a move, it's the Scandi gambit if I remember correctly. Not very highly thought of and probably isn't a move at all in this particular line

danya teached me literally to keep playing. always used to resign because of tilt. Then i realized a 1000 can beat a 1000 down A LOT material and honestly, those are the modt satisfying wins. When u play sloppy, resist the pressure and pull yourself out of the mud.

[@mcbomb7447]

The mouse slip wasn't a blunder. It was actually the best move in the position and stopped him from squandering his advantage with Ne5 (he explains the tactic after the game). g4 was the blunder.

1:58 claiming to be up a pawn with no comp for the opponent, as the opponent develops their 4th piece whereas you have 2 developed peices 🤔

[@DarkSideChess]

Having a few more pieces out may not be a huge advantage in every position. Those pieces were not necessarily well coordinated - not attacking anything together. I had an OTB game in the smith-morra recently (as white), and I felt like I was crushing my opponent on development 4 pieces developed vs 1. I had a bishop on d6 blockading the d7 pawn, preventing black from occupying the center and preventing castling. But in this position (rnbqk1nr/1p1p2bp/p2Bppp1/8/2B1P3/2N2N2/PP3PPP/R2QK2R b KQkq - 1 9) w/ black to move, the engine gives -0.4 for black. I was shocked when I found this out. I still managed to win the game convincingly though.

[@DarkSideChess]

The game went e4 c5 d4 cxd4 c3 dxc3 Nxc3 g6 Nf3 Bg7 Bc4 e6 Bg5 f6 (never play f6) Bf4 a6 Bd6. I thought Bd6 was such a clever move to just lodge the bishop in the heart of black's position, but the engine hates it lol. The game continued Qb6 Qd2 Nc6 O-O e5?? Nd5 Qa7 Nc7+ Kd8 Nxa8 Qxa8 Qd5 Nge7 Qf7 Rg8 Rfd1 b5 Bd5 Re8 Bxc6 Qxc6 Rac1 (no good choices for black at this point and he blundered mate in 1). Rf8 Qxe7#.
