Big fan of hearing the history of the opening as its played!

Its funny that Danya showed the Wesley game because in So's 1.e4 course on Chessable he gives Ne2 instead of Ngf3 because he says that in the line played in the game after 8.0-0 cxd4 9.cxd4 a5! then he gives 10.Re1 (instead of a4 Danya played in a similar position to the Danya - So game) and then 10...Be7! and he says that this transposes to a line in the 3...Be7 4.Ngf3 Nf6 lines that is known to be fine for Black.

So glad you decided to cover this line, it's my absolute favourite because you can get such fighting lines against a normally dry defence. Thanks Danya!

i was scratching my veins waiting for this video thank you danya for fixing us up for our dose of education.

Love your lessons Daniel!

Such a deep and genuine passion for the game, you're a great inspiration to us all Danya

Few things are more satisfying than getting a beautiful checkmate, then opening up your KZread page and seeing a fresh new Naroditsky upload.

What a great game. Thanks again for all the amazing content.

Thank you for continuing to stream and upload these Daniel

Thank you for the chess history at 11:31 I love hearing about Tarrasch!!

I remember when I played Tarrasch exclusively without knowing theory because Ivanchuk said in that one interview “Nd2 is less aggressive” and I always thought I was lost in the opening because I couldn‘t figure out how I was supposed to guard the d4-pawn lol. Turns out you’re supposed to sac it.

The goat! I’ve improved so much just from watching your content and taking notes, really appreciate what you do, hope you’re doing well :)

A very welcome trinket as I‘ve played the Tarrasch pretty much ever since developing my opening repertoire due to how sound the Ne2 Nf3 Bd3 setup is 😁 Will very definitely investigate Nf3

Thank you for all the instructive and great knowledge that you share with us, I also play this French line with white and now I have more ideas (liked the attack with h pawn a lot to cheap black structure)

Thanks! I look forward to my nightly Naro chess lesson.

Danya is the GOAT. He's a great coach (as far as I know), makes instructive content fun and FREE and obviously he's an amazing player in general.

Oh, that's what I play myself. Awesome variation! Thanks

I've been looking up the french for the past week now, and suddenly Antonio and Danya post french games on the very same day. I'm spoiled!

What Danya says: "you should be very careful when you play this line with white, obviously." What I hear: "play this line, you'll win every time." Got it. Thanks Danya!

As a French defense player reading the title made my night. Can't get enough of the content.... keep em coming!!!

I love playing the Tarrasch! Glad Danya is covering it.

I love watching your speed run vids, 👍

Спасибо, Даня! Не устаешь радовать :)

The Title is very similar to one of your themes in an opening teaching video 5 years ago. Excited!!

Thanks Danya ! Great lesson, I was looking for a new weapon against the French. So that's awesome. Your chess wordsmith wizardry is on-point ! The last camera angle was cool ! My lucky way is to face west while playing online anyway. According to Chinese astrology. I believe it definitely helps to find your lucky direction.

Please never stop Danya! We are all so grateful for these lessons

1. Love ya Danya 2. Absolutely cherish the intro with the flaming knight and the badass medieval music 3. Your instructive videos are the best out there. TYTYTY

Finally a speedrun video that isn't posted at 2am!

Tarrasch the flip-phone Luddite. I love this Daniel!

I'd love to see more french games from the white. It's so difficult for me to play against

I play the Tarrasch, but always thought that Ne2 was necessary, didn't know this line where you sacrifice a pawn. Good to know, will look more into it!

Oh wow, I played this exact line as white not too long ago. Exciting to see it here!

One of your best videos yet. I noticed you were a little bit anxious in this video though? It looks like me when I’ve had too much coffee and too little sleep.

The Soft-Spoken Sensei has blessed our inboxes with ASMR-adjacent content

iirc, it was Nimzowitsch who was, kind of, isolated among all the good players back then. He was a proponent of the idea that the center can be controlled by pieces, instead of pawns. This was counter to the idea that the center should be controlled using pawns, which was what Tarrasch believed in and probably what all the grandmasters of that time believed in.

I loved the position in this game, I have to try the tarrasch sometime

I was about to go to bed but i GOTTA watch this!

Loved Daniel’s speaking voice in this video.

damnnnnn guuurl!

another nice game x2

I was just down in my rapid game. Decided to turn Daniel on in the background (thought like “him”) and I came back for the draw against someone 70 points higher. Thanks Daniel!!!

Very nice line. I was experimenting with it myself, but playing f4 insted of Nf3, but gotta try this pawn sacrifice on d4. I was always losing it anyway, so I can sacrifice it with purpose now, hahaha

thanks

Great vid Daniel. I used to play this line a lot as white so love seeing more discussion on it

Here’s what I’ve learned so far in chess bishops are actually worth about 10 points when you lose one

Thank you for the series! Thanks to you, I gained 850 elo over the past eight months ! =)

The A2 and B2 pawns at 22:37: "Am I a joke to you?"

nice

you are the best.

That’s not even fair how you just beat up on people like this. What a beast. “That’s mate in 3”

I feel like he's speaking in a softer tone in this video. Does anyone feel the same? Tbh I'm absolutely loving this

"I have a compensation" is what I am saying when down a pawn.

korchnoi udovic is a nice game to look up in this line

I'll have to try this line, I play the Tarrasch but I always play the automatic Ne2.

Hi Danya, not long ago I put up a comment saying that I hit 1800, but today I hit 1900 for the first time. Couldn't have done it without your videos. Thanks for everything!

gg thx

12:53 Botez Gambit would like a word.

Isn't this similar to the milner-barry gambit in the french?

talk like yasser in this video, best impression ever

Denya is one of the greatest gifts for the worldwide chess

I feel like a thief getting such valuable content for free. Danya спасибо

2ñ25 does Ne2 not transpose into this same position?

super love your brains (not like a zombie)

Thanks for showing your rapid game against Wesley, even tho it was *3...Be7*

1. I am not sure it is correct that this variation came into prominence only after the appearance of strong computers. I played it many times myself, after seeing the 1967 Korchnoi vs. Udovčić game, maybe in the early 2000s it was. 2. The distinction between Dr. Tarrasch and the hyper-modernists is usually drawn too sharply, by those people who would like to put every player into a certain 'school.' In his book "The Game of Chess" from 1931 however Dr. Tarrasch actually has some high praise for certain hyper-modern openings, like the Alekhine defence, which he even played a few times in the late 1920s. Dr. Tartakower has a chapter called "Dr. Siegbert Tarrasch and Géza Maróczy as Hypermodernists" in his book "The Hypermodern Game of Chess." The animosity between Dr. Tarrasch and Nimzowitsch is well documented, but it appears it was more personal rather than due to much of substantial disagreement.

I wish you would make more of these! They are just so goooddd!! ❤️ Please keep it upp!❤️ and just a suggestion: could you play the Göring gambit sometime? Its my favorite opening and i would love to see it played on a high level! ❤️❤️❤️

dang my secret opening revealed to the whole wide world :(

Thank you based Danya

💗

Woah! :)

so we're in ASMR territory now

You know, there's an extraordinary amount of videos on how to play against the French as white, it's no wonder I have the HARDEST time playing it as black. Each game is some new "tricky" variation. I think it must be a sign to learn a different opening as Black against 1. e4

@SahnigReingeloetet

Жыл бұрын

Even though 1…e6 is, imho, a very solid choice of opening. And I say that as a 1.e4 player who very rarely loses to the French, but playing rarely seen yet solid openings is a good idea in general. If you‘re willing to diligently study a new opening I‘d recommend the Pirc to you, it can lead to very fun double-edged positions for Black and actively threatens to equalize if White isn‘t careful

Thanks to both of you for your suggestions. I have played the pirc defense a handful of times according to the database and do decently well. The Caro was my opening when I started and we didn’t get along too much 😅 Might be time to give it another chance

how can I play against you?

Holy cow, does the average 1900 know 11 book moves against the fourth most common response to his e4 aperture? Be7 was the first deviation o.0

I prefer the old camera setup

God that’s disgusting what you just did to my 2000 boy

I can see all the tactics after Qe7, but the early and middle game is really hard to follow in this line.

daniel lloks more handsome with this camera angle

Korchnoi gambit. Sam Collins did a 60 min release for Chessbase.

Tarrasch probably was No. 2 or perhaps even No. 1 in the late 1890s. He was rather dogmatic, whereas Lasker was pragmatic. OnTarrasch's Tombstone Tarrasch is rightfully called Praeceptor Germaniae (Germany's (chess) teacher.

why does Daniel sound like Seirawan today?

Danya have you lost any games on this particular speed run yet?

Who else was waiting for danya to say "Yeeeeeees I had this position in TILberg NINEteen seventyfive"

I have always hated the french as white, now am considering learning it thoroughly. Thanks Danya

Can you please play the classical french defense as black? I'd like to see some ideas for black.

Hi Danya

I love calling the Tarrasch Variation the trash variation lol
