[@stuartdalrymple]

Literally. I wait for this every week.

[@waitz27]

Thank goodness. A couple of hours of joy. Thanks squire!!

[@iancoughlan5]

15.15. "He's playing the right moves as well. The fucker." Too funny.

[@booktrunk]

Always a good sign it’s 2 hours long, so that implies no rage quit. :) I’m excited I love watching these

[@nimzomitch]

Simon, I love you, man - the ups! The downs! You keep it real and you're relatable

[@SteveHighLevel-gl8cf]

Simon should have a bigger audience than meme chess streamers like levy

[@ElderScrollsVINews]

Liked ❤, just wanted to let you know your a hero to me all the way out in Omaha, USA! Keep playing spicy Simon your the best ❤❤❤

[@majororgans]

He might have a lot of fans but I have your videos on notification and I’m not even subbed to Gotham. You’re the only one working this corner! Lighthearted and top tier articulation of the inner monologue of a GM.

[@topgunbass]

With all your banter you had me laughing again. Best chess stream going 😂

[@majororgans]

“Let’s play normal moves. Castle. I heard that’s good.” 😂

[@elyarerkivan9857]

We all enjoy your stream, your talking about life and everything. You are a very enjoyable person all in all. I have around 2 hours of beatiful time thanks to you every week. Subscribed more than a few years. And ofcourse liked! Hope to see you for a looong time 😊

[@bipinanand]

My weekly thanks for this quality material to watch, sir!

[@MNH73]

The story of the broken nose had me in stitches 😂

[@homero3928]

I'm glad to say I'll be there to see you next week in North Norfolk! Keep it up with the great TT videos

[@garp9433]

You’re looking a lot thinner! It’s awesome, glad you’re going for it mate

[@gregdavis1341]

You are so awesome to watch Simon !!👍👍🇭🇲

[@danjeory3659]

Kramnik's running that first game through his ACME cheat detection system as we speak

[@MrEviljezza]

Cant wait to come watch the chessboxing next week, should be a great laugh! Hopefully get a chance to meet as Im a fan and love the Jobava course!

[@darnk9785]

Where is it? I'm in England for 3 weeks and wanna come!

[@MrEviljezza]

@@darnk9785 hi mate, it's around the NE side of Norwich, if you google chessboxing UK you will find the event for tickets etc

[@PeterPerhac]

34:11 is why I love to watch your channel's content. You like to play something, and I want to see you play it, and you don't chicken out, you just go for it, making chess fun to watch!

[@JeffPHamm]

Another good watch! Once the boxing is done and dusted, you can get back to hangover chess and wipe the board clean!

[@MeditateXYoga]

i like how you make Title Tuesday fun every week

[@ingosteinhaeuser9535]

The second last game was awesome. What a ride. And great comment about Tal! I always knew he was Simon’s favorite!

[@zacharycook341]

We appreciate you Simon!

[@alanward2886]

Highlight of my week these Simon. Love that you are still fighting the good fight after a shit few years.

[@edwardwelsch5893]

I've always thought there was a similarity between boxing and chess, and I enjoy both. Can't wait to tune in to see Simon become World Heavyweight Champion!

[@juhonieminen4219]

24:15 Eduard Gufeld (1936-2002): My Life in Chess, 1993. Other books as well.

[@cz19856]

Btw Bortnyk started playing your e4 f4 Be2 Sicilian in blitz. He also plays the lion and the jobava. He most likely has taken the ideas from your courses. You should be proud, gingerGM.

[@Xialo_Universe_Art]

2 hours this time, the best treat to have, some banger questionable games this time!

[@thegovernorpower9161]

Yes Simon!

[@mcpartridgeboy]

Good luck with your fight, would love to see it, are you goint to post it on your channel ?

[@DaveParkerNZ66]

You got a like from me in the first 20 seconds when you said “mwah mwah”. Keep up the excellent chess entertainment.

[@wce-tube]

Nice one, Simon! Cheers!

[@TankAbbott666]

Hi and greetings from Dortmund. I watch your blitzstreams for years and enjoy them more than any other chesscontent. And I learned a lot about openings. Thanks for all of that! But PLEASE don't talk about politics.

[@mobydallas]

Go simon!

[@joshwantstotravel9516]

For Anyone and Simon looking for a Weapon against The Alapin, d5 exd5 Nf6 is very interesting, often gambeting one or two pawns

[@Thaddeus9287]

I always wondered if you'd ever get randomly matched against Gotham. Well played to him. love watching you play every week, keep it up! Would love to send you my picture of the shirt I made and wore to the National Open in Las Vegas a few weeks ago...I don't even want a free course or anything, I just think it's funny.

[@alibargh]

You are the best Simon, we love you ❤.

[@milkyBK370]

Great show as always. Always wanting you to do well but the result is a by-product for me. Bortnyk in round 1 is always gonna be a kick in the nuts... I see Gotham held Grischuk to a draw. He's been playing well lately.

[@walterbrownstone8017]

It's almost like Simon needs to get himself into tough positions to win. I've never studied the French but it looks like you need to be able to handle a ton of pressure to be successful with that one.

[@farmersix4434]

Drank special brew once and fell of my bike 🤣💀 good luck in the fight where can I watch 😄

[@adomaskuzinas2137]

What a great fight vs RobertoJBM. I thought the knight maneuver Nd8 Nf7 Ng5 Nf3+ seemed interesting. Its slow, but once the eagle lands its over. Not sure how white stops it

[@AntonG-sr5mu]

Like first, then watch, it's 2 hours!

[@tomaszcyhil5471]

Apart from a great sense of humor I like very much the phrase "boys and girls" used by Mr Simon. Not so obvious in today's time. Great content.

[@RIPWooDidders]

Simon v. Big Bort for the first match? Killer

[@buk0100]

1:28:38 what i really like, you have the right fighting spirit, Ginger. it is, what it is. without setting the right goals you wont achieve anything. so, lets fuc*ing gooo!!!

[@TheGreatSnoozer]

broke my thumb when i was 22 coming off my motorcycle. after 3 weeks of dithering they finally decided to operate. The orthopaedic surgeon was Irish, she came in to do a pre -op consultation, spent a few seconds grinding my thumb around it's joint and then just exclaimed " aghh it's fooked isn't it".

[@LoFiSymphony]

I see Simon, I upvote.

[@adomaskuzinas2137]

In the game against Sathvikadiga aftee Bxh7 i though white must be losing, Simon fought back so nicely despite white finding creative resources over and over again!

[@Mirchell1985]

Love the way of commenting second game :) So funny and painful at the same time :)

[@Anfield_the_place_to_be]

Game nr 2 was f*****g awsome😂😂 I rooting so much more for you to get 8 points each week, than any top player playing the big tournemets

[@eliranruben1137]

i am trying to get your vision | how much wisky i need?

[@the0cool0guy]

1:44:15 Simon has a lot of experience of trying to "perform" 😆

[@ReverseDutchRulz]

Why not the Dutch against 1 b3? b3 f5 Bb2 d6, followed by ..e5?

[@edf9577]

The best couple of hours any chess player can spend !! Cheers Simon, again ❤ Now "Shut Up and Play the French" 😂

[@Josh-cz3ym]

ugh I was hoping you'd crush Gotham. he's so obnoxious

[@jameshogan8168]

"Let's try not blundering next game" is my mantra. Mantra shmantra.

[@johnjames4681]

I watch in stages and game a day. Good stuff. Its like the England team. great on paper but getting dodgy results.

[@chrisd6982]

Yeah, England are dull and basic atm, but I think Southgate has ordered the players to take it easy in the group stage to stay fresh - he may also be concealing how we plan to actually play in the knock out stages - military lead time....

[@rafaelrojas7249]

Keep it simply Ginger!.

[@fredd3.14]

make sure to get your wrists wrapped tight when htting the bags! love to see your mouse control improve. as you say, even at at 44 u can improve if you challenge ursefl

[@tomwaters8409]

At :30 "let's play some normal chess" I can hardly wait😅

[@PaCo-jd3sl]

Does blair connell still bother with twitch?

[@Para-rt9uk]

Simon Williams, the English football team of chess . Says 'all they do is defend badly'. Next game 'what am i doing defending like this?' lol.

[@torrawel]

Learned a new English word today ! Thank you Simon! Munch... I continue to be amazed about all these French words in English!

[@MaxWright7]

Good luck with the boxing game.

[@alfiecollins5617]

18:54

[@aleisterleytham1080]

Ah tough last game so close

[@interstellarbeatteller9306]

oooh tough first game - Either Bortnyk is bad news

[@Michelt007]

"I cannot find any threat, his famous last words", Re8, Bb5, oops! ;-)

[@TenTen3649]

Vote galloway or corbyn

[@giorgibliadze1151]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@wce-tube]

Gunina is a last name, whish is pronounced as Goonina with the emphasis on "oo". So it's ['goonina], not [gun'ina].

[@nimzomitch]

Now I have to go back to an older video and check out your nose

[@zzashkittyzzonna2474]

I am 62 the highlight of week if get vlog from gingergm and two hour vlog is good news for results

[@stuartdalrymple]

We need some Ginger Merch. “Put that in your pipe and smoke it!”

[@ricksick81]

30:38 your opponent has Ne7 winning

[@Nathan00at78Uuiu]

0:11 let's enjoy ourselves waa waa? what does he want to do with the boys and girls. i'm shocked.

[@christopherlynch4347]

Very entertaining

[@viddyhk]

Gotham C. is taking coaching from a GM in preparation to get his own GM title and has been sharpening up his game recently. As to why he has a million followers.... I guess it's an American thaaang.

[@lukecain756]

You are so funny Simon

[@torrawel]

I said it before and ill say it again: When short of time, do as if it were a bullet game. Don't think, follow the instinct!

[@chriszur2]

More Thumbs up!!!!

[@seafoam9736]

Life advice: "Go and get your nose broken." Yep, ok!

[@kwhd559]

--> This is what happens when a GM drops a point to Levy Rozman in blitz kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3TMo4KKpKmmjtU He immortalizes you on KZbin forever 😁

[@iainbozfelt]

You were better than Eric Hansen who was woeful!!

[@charmainattwood]

Ditch the green tea. ❤

[@zzashkittyzzonna2474]

Fischer is greatest player all time

[@Kuryoku]

Only 40 minutes in but maybe that tea is too calming, you're playing so much slower than usual! You always seem to do well when you're fast and attacking

[@juhaniraunio5887]

Put that in your pipe and smoke it. Nice to see 2h+ TT videos. Its guaranteed to not rage quit

[@fredgrumitt4794]

Why did you keep saying relevant?? Did you mean relative?

[@jms4406]

Wow this old starling was famished

[@theplayzpaidoff]

:)

[@TSMC123]

Ginger, you really need to work on your endgames. You'd be around 2700 online if your endgames were as good as your opening and middlegame.

[@capurera2]

I think one of the funny things with Simon is that his openings are just generally ok (he sometimes gets great positions), his middlegames are almost always brilliant(brings it back no matter what, amazing sacs galore), and then his endgames are so bleh

[@santaclaus7727]

first 🙂

[@normanno8514]

poor play

[@ianmullin5183]

Shut up and play the French 😂
