This is some of the best chess content on the internet.

[@meyamo8455]

This is THE BEST chess content on the internet 😂

[@vagiss]

This is THE BEST chess content on the internet .♟

[@RuckDocBen]

Here here!

[@stevenorth1564]

Just don't play this opening

[@oasis3775]

​@@stevenorth1564Bro's onto nothing.

[@willzang3000]

bless you daniel, top tier player, teacher and human. legendary status and absolute sportsman and gentleman.

[@lukemarks3281]

you sure kept it succinct there honestly

[@ericfrederickson2692]

Couldn't agree more; Danya is absolutely first-rate.

[@vaibhavarora3389]

Bless you man

[@cooloutac]

Top cheater. The only thing he's educating you on us how to Smurf abd manipulate ratings. He's teaching you that's more important than a competitive match and that chess is not a respectable sport. Just another Esport full of immature Anonymous cheaters that deserves no major sponsorships. Hopefully this guy just got out of rehab.

[@arkovamukherjee6939]

​@@cooloutacu seem like a degeneratte

[@RobFraser]

You are role model in chess and character. I am a nurse, yet I aspire to share my knowledge and passion with the same humility and integrity you show. Through a challenging two years, your channel has been a bright spot in my life as I’ve taken up chess. I bought your book to show my support wanted to sent a message in hopes you see it and know how appreciated you are.

[@aaronchapa1117]

You deserve nothing but good things Danya

[@n4ymzyt908]

Hopefully the donation u gave him will motivate him to do more , that man is an absolute legend to me

[@Aaron-yg7ci]

twitch roasting him for missing a move they never saw is hilarious

[@Argurotoxus]

Missed ya Danya! Thanks so much for doing these videos and all the effort you put into sharing your knowledge with us. Your passion for both chess and teaching always shines so bright.

[@satiben909]

Some of the most exciting speed run games have come from complex endgames. They are not boring at all.

[@Alexiztheone]

You were too hard on yourself for missing g4. The comments asking how you can miss that move as a GM must think you're some kind of inhuman being

[@WorldOfDeepThought]

Some people try every opportunity to hurt others.

[@seanmcdonough8815]

I always think I've learned a lot after these videos, then I go and get scholars m😅ated

[@worsethanjoerogan8061]

Probably younger kids who think Danya is somehow perfect and GMs don't blunder

[@compassionate_badger]

I came here to write this exact comment. Danya, don't be too hard on yourself, either from a chess playing or chess content creating point of view. Your videos are without a doubt the most instructive on the internet. I'm so glad you're back from your break and I hope you're doing better.

[@Nimzowitz]

Yes, it was a troll comment.

[@MrLuqasshh]

I never comment, but I wanted to tell you that I'm so happy to see you back. Regardless of number of views and subscribers, you remain the highest quality chess teaching medium in the world. Let other popular guys keep creating clickbite'y mediocre entertainment bullsh*t for masses, I only go there for guess the elo anyway. Your stuff I watched several times and it made me much better player. Keep at it, we'll always stand behind you!

[@951genni]

"I don't know the line, so I'll play something I used against Magnus" Nods

[@hugopk1]

Danyas energy is so infectious, absolutely love his analyses

[@kaidoChess]

Danya, as an audio engineer! A noise gate and low pass filter would do you WONDERS ❤

[@user-ik7jl7ft6y]

Lol the 800 going crazy in chat over missed g4😂 Great video Danya, very instructive analysis as usual

[@TheChingChongSlayer]

Dayna, I went from 1350 to 1610 with master class playlist. I dont know if you know how you contribute to players and in so many levels but we really appreciate you. Take care of yourself, we are on our way to 500k🎉🎉

[@5TimesWCC]

I went from 800 to 1400 watching this speedrun.

[@brayo971]

Would be really cool to see you play a small rapid match with another high rated player. Ben finegold and Eric rozen did it recently and it was very entertaining. Thanks for the informative content, i cant say I'm improving tons (i dont play too too much), but i love throwing it on the tv with some snacks and watching good chess

[@ignis6144]

ben fatgold would eat the pieces

[@abolbuna8418]

thank you daniel. please upload more often we really miss your videos

[@skerpracso]

Glad to see more speedrun videos back again!

[@carlgibson7850]

"Atlas holding the world on his shoulders." As a lover of strongman, I enjoyed that quite a bit.

[@josephsalmonte4995]

About damn time. I love the speed-runs 👍

[@desmundreid3368]

Always worth the wait!!!! Love your content! Thank you so much for the quality as always.

[@SiddhantShedge]

Man I must tell,these speedruns just changed the perspective I used to look at some chess positions while I was lower rated,and they certainly helped me win some tournaments!Thanks Sensai🛐

[@buddythompson5284]

I'm so happy to see another speedrun video and hope you start another speedrun from scratch. I've been working my way through all your previous speedrun series. Not only have I learned a ton about how to approach chess in general, but these speedruns have given me the confidence to adopt a 1.e4 repertoire after a lifetime (50+ yrs) of playing 1.d4, anchored by the Four Knights Scotch and Alapin Sicilian. That repertoire change in itself has given me incredible new insights into chess at a fundamental level. So thanks for all that!

[@Not3xactly]

Youre the best Danya, glad to see you uploading new stuff. I sincerely hope all is well and want to say you are appreciated greatly! Take care.

[@haruka.h560]

One of the best chess teacher, no matter the views and subs.. the immaculate quality of your content is something everyone who knows you praise you for. I hope you can see every "thank you" comment as a human being grateful for the effort you make. We will always be supposed Danya, keep it going 🔥

[@NA44221]

Thank you so much for uploading, can't wait for the next speedrun

[@zoneoff668]

You're such an amazing teacher! I think you deserve so much more recognition! Thank you for your very valuable work.

[@ravenbender6841]

Great to have you back. I've learned to really fully appreciate your videos.

[@N0FearProductions]

Daniel, you’re a legend! Thank you for the amazing content as always. I haven’t commented on a KZbin video in a long time, but wanted to let you know that you are very much appreciated!

[@FrancescoCarucci]

Wonderful commentary. The educational value of analyzing a blunder is invaluable for us.

[@nyztan0]

another excellent video, been certainly missing your speedrun videos!

[@bassmanjr100]

I hope the speedruns continue. These games are just about the most informative out there. Particularly in the middle to upper middle levels. I would like to see your opening recommendations for beginners to mid level players. How many moves in reasonably should you learn? Tying in an openings class to actual games would be outstanding.

[@myfavsandlikes7478]

Thanks for the new video Daniel! Great content as always!

[@Nimzowitz]

Awesome game! Great to see you in contemplation mode! And to see which moves you're thinking of! Also the strategy during the game (things outside of the board) was very interesting!

[@arthoormoorgen9492]

It's crazy how these 600s reacts to players above 1800 made a blunder 😂. Even GMs are still humans too, and it's not like they are went full GM mode in these type of content, like Danya did.

[@kurtdaley1384]

Glad to see you resume the speed run! Thanks for all your work.

[@personofearth1541]

Another great video from the best teacher. Love these speed run vids. Thank you!

[@bughunter1766]

Quality game by the opponent here also. We often overlooked it takes two quality players to make these really interesting. Also refreshing to see an opponent playing without engine assistance. LOL

[@liamclarke4464]

dear god i didnt know how much i would miss you daniel welcome back keep it up

[@aldincalderon8845]

Danya you have done leaps and bounds for my chess, only started in june and was struggling to climb out of the chaos that is 1000 Elo chess, now that ive reached 1500 ive been looking for something that could improve my attacking game which i found to be my biggest weakness, and your calm and collected explanations along with your aggressive style has been one of my best teachers. Thank you.

[@connerdenning8567]

A smile has been put on my face. Thank you for another video. :)

[@ExitDoesntExist]

Love having the speed run back, great match.

[@abramisme]

Man that g4 would of been crazy. So many people have a hard time moving that pawn in front of the king. You are awesome my friend! Keep it up!

[@afonsoaraujoneto5218]

Daniel, I really love learning from you. One request/idea: I wanted to see a speedrun where you play bullet/hyperbullet in silence and then you review as you usually do and explain what happened in your thoughts during the most important parts of the game. It would be an interesting way to tap into your deep/subconscious thinking. It would also be interesting to analyze the moves you missed because the decision had to be too fast, and even you might even learn a new bit or two with this experience :). Great job, overall!

[@juanmoralesdracus]

I've watched you for almost two years now and I just wanted to send some support. JB and you are the best chess teachers that I know, your content is of extreme quality. Thanks for all your hard work and passion, you are an example for all of us, we love you, Danya ❤

[@glassbottle82]

Thank you Danya - please keep the content going!

[@monkerud2108]

Great to see more speed run games :)

[@wiggininin]

"If anyone's under the impression that grandmasters never blunder, this must be your first day..." Brilliant

[@Foto_gui]

Great game great video. Thank you Daniel ;)

[@leonardoribeiro4047]

[@andrewmcgrath3656]

Great video!

[@HellFuryHLW]

I’m so happy to have you back. Missed you so much. Wish you the best the world can offer

[@AuratticStride]

When gms blunder I like to think of it as, in all their calculations, they saw 1000 possible blunders, it just so happened that there were 1001

[@Anna-dg9kp]

You really bring back my love for chess that I had as a kid, I suddenly feel 40 years younger again hahaha! Your logical thinking and crystal clear explanation is so motivating, thank you Daniel!!!

[@alireza9018]

thank you for your lovely contents❤ i improved more and more with each of your videos

[@seansullivan3922]

Listening to you think was my exercise for the today, and you’re hundreds of miles away… what I time to be alive!

[@hl1921]

[@Jimemy]

[@krabmane1304]

Top tier quality from the Dan-Man as usual. You are honestly an invaluable part of the chess community

[@bahaaaddintaleb401]

love your vids man

[@ignis6144]

love daniels sense of humor. 12:20 is so funny to me

[@sqttttt]

I love attacking games but endgames in the speedrun are just as great!

[@konstantinosdoulis298]

The goat chess coach back at it

[@elemental8094]

Спасибо, Дэниел!

[@andrewsocial9309]

I only play 5 minute chess these days so I'm looking forward to this. The approach you're taking of discussing general instincts instead of just specifics is perfect.

[@MichaelKpda]

Finally...its like the best chess content out there

[@YG-hu2cb]

Glad to see you back! Take care of urself

[@yourmother7963]

By the grace of God I just hit 1861 i watched like 3 of your videos on the Caro and thats what has pushed me over the edge

[@Thatotter223]

I’m hyped. Daniel is the best.

[@jyaco6935]

THANK YOU

[@Daywalkr]

Your videos took me from fuckin 220 to 1000 lol. Nothing crazy but thanks for SO much high quality content. Best chess content out there. An absolute gem of a channel

[@MrCrillemus]

Halleluja - youre back!

[@theodoresd3321]

The best leisurely speedrun is back boys

[@ZerosiiniFIN]

Glad to have you back, Sensei!

[@bitroix_]

The best teacher period, thank you for sharing your knowledge and entertaining!

[@JoopvanBuren]

Yesssss, welcome back! I hope the time off did you well and that you are feeling fresh and re-energized. Glad you allowed yourself some time off, but even more glad you made your return! Have been watching your previous speed run games every night for the last 3 weeks, and it helped me improve my chess a lot (1500 -> 1620).

[@jayr3276]

Thanks!

[@MrK-ti5lt]

Oh thank goodness! Yay!

[@Witchblade112]

Yay, more speedrun!

[@husnainkhan6531]

He never bores you...always entertaining

[@Expostulating]

hooray it's back! what a great game as well

[@RickyMartinVideos]

I love your content, Danya. 👍

[@AbeKenney]

Flames of our initiative! I may have to buy your book. Or books? You have the gift of gab.

[@johnobrien6415]

Class on how he handled the missed g4 blunder. You can always learn something.

[@melrakan]

I enjoy your chess content because I like the attitude you bring to teaching. It's stupid that there are some people who do not see this at all and disrespect you and your time by trying to stream-snipe or cheat (or both). Just keep doing this, or not doing it, at the pace you prefer. This viewer'll watch and enjoy it as long as you enjoy doing this too. No fun watching someone grit their teeth through something.

[@esmaeilrostami955]

Thank you

[@andpan3478]

Waiting for it))

[@leonidavdeev6922]

Good vibes!

[@KramerWaifu]

Another great episode!

[@kimcostantino1051]

Hey danya I hope you are well :) we missed this!!

[@akelakela5524]

Thank You Sensei!

[@andrewlijoi]

You are the best chess streamer for quality by far, never change. Clickbait fastfood will die out, but your content will stand the test of time.

[@explorerr7476]

Best chess teacher hands down, thanks for all your videos danya

[@LePingouin92]

Maybe am i overthinking this, but you seem unwell Daniel. I dearly wish you get well soon

[@Najeem118]

Your explanation is very good.

[@i.g.l.z.9215]

Fascinating, I'm learning tons, thank you! (By the way, I like endgames and wouldn't find it boring to watch. But perhaps for a calm player like myself, it's especially useful to study playing with the queens on the board :))
