That's how I feel down at 1200 when Eric Rosen was playing the Stafford Gambit. Everyone was playing it and losing.
I love how that single a3 move caused the opponent to go from equal to drowning in custard in one move. You can just imagine them thinking "oh I learned about prophylaxis from that KZread guy, time to put it into action". Danya's expression and voice change at 2:35 is also hilarious.

a3 wasn't what drowned them; not even allowing the centre fork trick drowned them. It was their response to the centre fork trick that killed their position.

0:40 I guess people don't like to play the open Sicilian because of bad experience. I remember my time as chess newbie developing an intense fear and hate towards open sicilian. Because (open-) sicilian players are always ahead in the theory anyways -> often resulting in losing games for white. So the META-Game is to "torture" the sicilian player with the alipin or closed sicilian in hope the sicilian player lack theory in these openings.
I truly cannot thank you enough for these amazing instructive videos. The Accelerated Dragon is something new I have been playing so these ideas are gonna be implemented. Thank you very much for everything you do Sensei. 🙏🏽
Love the content! It's helping me improve vastly!
The line at the start of analysis (that begins with e5) is pretty amazing. Thanks Danya ❤️

Wonderful and informative as always Danya. Keep it up 😀😀
Incredible as always Danya thanks for these vids
Hey Danya. Love your videos! :) Would it be possible to make a long video (or video's) on your opening recommendatinos of this speedrun?
Great video as always Danya. Your ability to explain and demonstrate concepts goes beyond chess and is appreciated in every way
Awesome video as always! Thank you for helping us become better!
Love the tactical lines shown in this video. Super sick
I watched this live for the first time today. Nice close game. Especially trading with tempo and logic to open the middle while ahead in development.
You're, by far, the best chess teacher on the internet. I have been following your speedruns since your first posted them. Thanks for everything Daniel.

Interesting analysis!
You make it look so easy, then I go and hang all my pieces in the process 😁
Best educational chess content by far, and its all free. I love Danya.

Nice game ! Hope we get an open accelerated when whites Queen comes out early to attack blacks h8 rook. That would be a good line to go over. Thanks sensei Danya !

Titled players are something else man. I've even seen FMs being crazy lethal on the board, squeezing all hope. But GMs are on another level.
Does the Centre Fork trick just help give that side a better position as material wise the other side get the pawn back. Just not sure if it’s always worth playing it when available?
Best serie ever
Wow that was so precise it was like chess surgery
On the rise past 1000 rating and i feel out of my element watching 1700 games, but it's still super instructive to see the proper sequence of moves that helps get an advantage. I've yet to stop watching any of the speedruns! Thanks for the instruction Danya!
I hope Daniel plays the Caro-Kann in the next speedrun :)
Wow e5 f5 is simply soul-crushing. Textbook submission.
i never knew how powerful the accelerated dragon could be, i thought it was just something to prepare for bxa1
Daniel went into full GM mode here... omg... the post game analysis blew my mind.... I pity the fool who plays e5 in my next game.
thanks
Awesome video Danya! Just got to ask if it's just me that hears the audio quite low, anyone experience the same issue?
nice
Ah another night where Danya sings me to sleep
Makes we want to try the Sicilian
Can anyone tell me why white did not castle at time 7:55 before the queen trade ?
18:00 correct & add to study rep
I like how Danya allows the opponent to grab a meaningless a pawn cause you know white was licking his chops at the sight of that hanging pawn for about 3 moves in a row
Finally! Someone who plays the open sicilian

What to do if my opponent pushes against my kingside early in the dragon? Can't castle queen side as my first move pushes forward a queens pawn, this weakening the king if I castle queen side, this is my biggest problem.

If your opponent pushes early on the side of the board, he's neglecting the center, to which you can then strike in yourself.

Search "yasser seriawan accelerated dragon". He gives a really good explanation for *why* each move gets played. If you know the motivation behind the moves, you aren't "memorizing an opening", you're understanding the ideas behind it and acting on them. Then even when someone goes off the beaten path, you still have a plan for what you should do

Get a diary book and work out the lines, read up the moves from other grandmaster games and find out why the move is played, or reason out for yourself why it's played. Also, you can draw out the chess positions in your diary, simplified if you like to just a 3 x 3 or 4 x 4 position. Judit Polger mentions this in one of her books.
At 3:30, the knight is protected by a pawn. So based on your 'is a pin dangerous?' rule, this in my head seems like any other bisschop-knight pin in the opening. Which nuance am I missing in that rule of thumb?
@outkillagaming9131
Жыл бұрын
There are 2 attackers on the knight, so you would lose a pawn if it wasn’t defended again. And the bishop taking would be a fork and win the rook. Hope this helps

I often think that when these games are one sided at this level it's because the player isn't cheating.
Nat Geo voice: Now we can see how the python squeeze the life out of his prey hinch by hinch
many GM would stop, after black take our knight in c6, it will good for us. And never tell how to punish white after taking it. Many people take the knight and our position crumble from there. Yes we have major pawn in centre but can't push pawn and bishop have no square to develop.And we are one piece down in the board due to inactive.
I think the opponent played a3 because they were worried about ...Na5 after Bc4 and wanted a square for the bishop. Not saying it is good, just stating my thoughts.
This is quote an anomaly of people not playing open Sicilian

22:50
Me who only ever plays the Caro Kann - hmm defs won’t make this mistake😂
i love you man
12:25 isn't the more clinical move Be5 here because it poses the most direct threat? It attacks the white knight which defends the white rook so if we had an extra turn, we would take the knight, removing the defender of the rook. If white trades rook, we queen for free. If white moves the knight, we take the rook for free. At the worst, we gain a full rook. I'm not saying that f5 isn't winning, just that it takes more time to create a legimate threat so I wonder why Danya didn't mention it. Perhaps he just missed it, but if he did, then I would be very proud of myself since that move was the first that came to mind to me once I tried looking for a better move than immediately queening.
As a 1800 player, I knew the move was Kb8, not Kd5 😃😂 ( white trick to push e6 in the opening )
Absolutely obliterated daaaamn 😂
And this is why people play other moves on move 2 and 3
How to study the theory? Should we mug up all the variation?
Levy been talking smack homie, 'bout time Danya gave him that smoke and teach him what a beat down feels like from a super GM 👊
Literally everyone plays the open sicilian against me I dont get it 😅
Thank you based Даня.
Not sure why Nd2 instead of Ng3 was never mentioned. I know white is still worse but to me it looks better than what actually happened.
someone play a smith morra against danya
How does simple logical play crush a 1700? This must mean I’m not able to play simple logical chess. Maybe some day if I watch more of these vids.
İ hope you wont just finish speedrun by the time you hit around 2200 like the speedrun before. Because the high rated games are the most beneficial ones for me( i guess for all of us) and we would like to see 1700-1800+ games for a longer period. There are more theory lines, more advanced maneuvers, players dont lose to 1-2 move tactics immediately and of course there is more room for analyse after game
Do you have a book? I feel like you'll write a good one
Ive been facing more sicilians of late. Danya effect.

Then you should thank them for being so nice as to give you the center. After they take your knight you play D5 with tempo and chase the knight away, then you play e4 with tempo and chase the other knight home to g1. Congrats you have a commanding lead.

Re the center fork trick: did anyone else notice that white could have desperado-ed her bishop and gotten the pawn back with Bxf7+?? I don't think I would've played it knowing that white could have done that.

@@constantijndekker8343 true, I realized that. And in a double K-pawn game that would be good for black. Maybe still is, but with the k-side also fianchettoed, if white manages to exchange the other bishop the black king is drafty. It would have been better than what was played.

i encounter a lot of people randomly playing a3 with white in some many positions where it isnt good and it makes me angry really, i mean what could be going in people's heads? such a dumb move. i guess they want to restrict the knight but play like that is only acceptable below 1000 in my opinion

That is actually a line against the Sicilian. It is called a3 Sicilian or Sicilian Defense: Mengarini Variation. Gothamchess suggests this line for black as it throws people off by surprise. But with correct play, black Is fine. It has some similarities with the wing gambit.
