Thank you Danya for the game! I enjoyed it even though I got crushed. Sorry this was my practice bullet account, I was looking for 10 sec games while watching your stream and I just thought I might get to play you If I started a 15 10 game, and I did. My real rapid rating is 2040, sorry for the play looking a little bit suspicious for 1790.🤔

He was OBVIOUSLY cheating. Do you honestly think a 1800 rated player can just hold like this against a GM? No chance in hell. Why do you think he was able to hold on for so long after the blunderous c6? because he was constantly playing top engine moves in losing position, a feat not many GM's can manage. Just analyze the game yourself like I did. Just because someone loses to you doesnt mean they werent cheating. He shouldve lost harder, he made it too obvious.

Please don't act like 1800 are trash noobs who are just trying to figure out how the knight move, these guys are legitimately good players. And just because he is able to find top engine moves doesn't 100% mean he is actually cheating. I will argue that those moves are very human and findable and I will trust Danya's instinct when it comes to cheating because he knows best what computer move truly means and even Danya said he is not playing particularly good in this game so I will give the guy the benefit of the doubt.

Danya, as a d4 player I really, really enjoyed this. I've never really considered the jobava until now. I play queens gambit almost exclusively. Please, I would love some more d4 games. QG, Catalan, London, Torre, whatever. All the e4 content is great, but given where I am and how long I've been playing d4 I'm not exactly about to start playing kings pawn structures. Learning d4 is hard enough without starting again.

You do great stuff! love every second of it :)

Fantastic ongoing explanation and break down. Thank you

Great explanations!

Really great video. I know now that I have been playing this opening incorrectly. Thank you!

Thanks Daniel

Amazing game! Thank you

I really love the opening and hope to see more of it in the speedrun.

Fresh openings!!! Always feels great!

This was unexpected and awesome. Would love to see more Jobava London stuff from Danya. I took the Hans Neimann Jobava course and getting Danya’s spin on it would be super valuable

I love these videos! Jack played a great game! Jack should be proud! Daniel you are the best!

while i’m still not very good, i’ve mostly gone from playing with 50-60% accuracy to 75-80%, an achievement due largely to your videos. you make learning very engaging and interesting and for that i am grateful.

Hurry up with this course! The jobava has become my bread and butter because of you and I’m pushing 2100!

Favorite game this run. Suuuuper interesting.

Your words are pure wisdom. ❤️

This one was really enjoyable. Memorising the move order is the most complicated thing about this. How to respond If black responds differently. Nonetheless your opponent played incredibly well in this game, better than I ever could. I understood most ideas and most responses but I would probably still forget some of the key elements

thanks

That was a great game

29:28 when we see danya is trying to pressure opponent's time we know he's been defending very well there

Some excellent defense from the opponent! This game was very pretty.

yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes! Please do a few more Jobavas if you have the time to squeeze them in!

I’ve been scoring around 60% with the Jobava. It’s incredibly fun, and I can’t recommend it enough. I’ve been a Be2 player so understanding that Bd3 idea is something I need to try

What a game. Kudos to the opponent, they're one of those people that get some kind of a wake-up call and play like a gm after they blunder, I would definitely have lost the game as white considering how resilient black played afterwards. Please like the vid guys! :))

@agftun8088

Жыл бұрын

black had a draw at some point in the end game with rook G7 , that's how well he defended .

The craziest thing about this opening and game is the advantage of the central doubled isolated pawns. They restricted the movement of the black's knights in the middle game and later prevented the infiltration of the doubled rooks on the E file.

Oh hell yeah baby

I started transitioning in the jobava sometimes after the van geet and it's so good especially against someone not used to play D5

Nice sir❤

Hi Danya! How are you? I love your videos and keep the good work up! Could you please do a video on your favourite openings as white, and favourite openings/defences as black.

Wow the d3 pawn was such a beast throughout the game completely blocking the e4 and c4 squares AND indirectly locking queenside AND helping control the e file

great play by your opponent

20:24 I hope Hikaru has seen this position. This is the most wooden of all the shields

I’ve been playing the Vienna from 1000-1600 but the jobava looks really fun. I think I’m actually gonna pick it up as a secondary opening

Excellent and very informative to see you hunt down a 2000! Also I like how, despite the title of the video, you finish with a tactic on the queenside ;)

~ 22:30 when saying boa constrictor method you should’ve said “the thing about the boa constrictor method is eventually you gotta eat the mouse” (or whatever animal the boa would be eating)

I really like the Jobava, it is my main opening. My only issue is, when the games turn really tactical and long I often lose on time. I guess I should practice playing small improving moves quickly rather than spending too much time always looking for the big winning tactic. On my level 3 … Nf6 is the most played variation, and that leads to all kinds of fun. I look forward to your course.

In other videos Daniel gives advice to keep a couple of general improving moves in your back pocket for these situations where you need to calculate big sequences. Thinking on your opponent's time is huge and having a couple of good moves to fall back on is extremely useful

Me gustaría ver más partidas con 1. e4. Hemos tenido muy pocas partidas de la escocesa de los 4 caballos en este speedrun. A pesar de eso, siempre se aprende mucho visitando otras de aperturas para ver otro tipo de planes.

AND HE SACRIFICES THE ROOOOOOK

All hail the sensei

You are so far over my head, it's taken a while, but I'm finally learning from you.

Queen side pawns just standing around for half the game, forgotten by the officers.

Daniel, I'm wondering if you've ever done a video where you compare/contrast the regular London with the Jobava London? I've been involved in a discussion on this topic with someone who claims the Jobava system should not be called a "London" at all because the differences are so marked.

I've been looking forward to some London :)

Im here for the GOT references LOL lets gooo

Daniel's opponents have been insane recently... The last one I saw, while he was rated 1700ish rapid, was 2500 blitz lol. I think some people kind sandbag to play him. I'm around 1800 rapid and I doubt I'd play this good against him.

Kudos to jack, easily a 2200 player. Well done mr jack!

I think you're opponent was seeing an engine

I have an idea for a series, that you get to a set elo by only using good principles and not calculating, and showing how far you can get by just the basics

Jack played an amazing game

What is your overall feeling about the f3 response to Bf5? What is it about the position that you prefer getting the knight out to e5? I feel like the f3 lines force some immediate attacking options kingside

Danya what exactly are you talking about at 41:16? Are you currently working on a course about the Jobava London? To be honest this would sound very interesting to me :)

Have to admit that ive played a long time and watched thousands of games, and it does only seem to be in these 15 minute games that 1700 players seem to find resources later in the game. They often do average openings that fall fairly quickly then after losingva pawn they can find 5-6 really good moves. i do suspect that players go in without intention to cheat and then faced with GM level play they often end up consulting stockfish just try and get the game back. Maybe not, but under shorter time controls these kinds of players just seem to melt.

@ModusOperandi2009

Yes, I've gotten that same feeling from several of Danya's speedrun games. People start off legit, then get salty about being thoroughly outplayed 10-15 moves in. For reference, I'm around 2150 Lichess rapid, so nowhere near master level, but I'm strong enough to recognize when people are playing above their level.

Agreed. He clearly used Stockfish after the opening, to avoid embarrassment. He’s in these KZread comments and said he was watching the stream. It’s obvious he wanted to appear a good player. But got spooked when chat started to get suspicious and then his 2nd best sockfish moves suddenly turned to 4th best Stockfish moves. Pathetic.

you can be the next oxhorn of starfield if you keep this up

Thanks Danya! Now the Chessbrah community doesn't like me because I pulled a fast one with an early Nb5 Nc2+ and won a queen and the game with 95% accuracy. I'm a 450 in blitz but apparently my Jobava was too hot to handle😂

I equalized an IM twice and almost drew, and I was at ~1300 blitz. It was a simul but still, the chasm between me and that IM is bigger than someone who's ~2k FIDE and a GM.

Is this better than the London system? Or should I learn the London system or are they both completely different openings with different play styles
