Danya: this is very similar to the first two speed runs, not gonna lie
Me: excellent
ikr .. he says it as if it was a bad thing, meanwhile i am here hoping for 10 more similar speed runs
I really like the idea of emphasizing playing boring positions and middlegame fundamentals. It will be much more helpful for my level than the fancy wins!
Same here, after O-O, i just start loosing a piece or blunder 😂
Me too. I tend to do better by playing solidly, but that can eventually lead into positions where there are no tricks. Watching Danya play a whole game really helps.
What's your level?
1100 forever
The confidence I get from watching Danya only for it to be immediately crushed in an actual game is the definition of: Hilarity ensues
Reminds me of learning calculus. It makes perfect sense watching the Prof. Then you sit down to the test and your mind goes blank 😂
@@worsethanjoerogan8061 - Calculus is so gross.
i feel that with chessbrah too, i start commentating my own games with a canadian accen
the blunder in the end after playing a reasonably accurate game makes perfect sense for 1400, could have been me.
Not sure about that, most 1400 players blunder the game a lot lot earlier. They don’t play like a 2000 and then do that under slight time pressure lol
The guy is probably an 1900 fide or 2100 online in a good mood just sandbagging.
Neeeever. No 1400 plays like that with that speed. Maybe in a daily 14-day game, but not in a 10m taking no longer than 20sec per move and finding the best moves.
@@aClownBaby- No kidding. Going toe to toe like that with a GM? Strongest 1400 ever if he's legit.
1400 rapid can pull off fairly precise and drawish games like these, it doesn't seem outlandish to me. It's not like he had any edge at any point, Danya intentionally neutralized white most of the time and traded down. Once actual technique got involved, the dude collapsed. It's textbook QGD.
I really love the way you analyze key moments and walk through your ideas. This series is so insightful for newer players like myself. Thank you for your work.
Hey, I love your videos! I didn't know you played chess, good luck learning & getting better :)
Yee, I love your vids too!
Thank you so much for this! You seem worried that we're gonna get bored with speed runs. I should say (and I would wager it's the same for many people) I would'nt get bored even with a perpetual speed run. Can't thank you enough for this stuff ...
Defending the rook infiltration was so instructional - I always moved my pawns - please give us more of these general ideas (so I have an excuse for not learning openings).
21:54 I think this is a really important point made by Danya that is often overlooked.
Hey Danya, I am sure that a lot of people tell you that you are an amazing teacher but thanks to those videos (and agadmator's) I've reached my goal of 1400 in a year and I plan to continue playing so, please, never stop pumping those bad boys out cuz they are extremely helpful!
It's simple, I see a Danya video and I watch it
Yes
Even though you literally don't care, chat. You literally don't care. You don't care, chat, really.
We are simple people
This is a very instructive game + analysis. Thank you Danya!
I’m loving the new speed run series! Keep it up Danya
Thank you so much for these speedruns, I still learn a lot from you!
Love this series, thanks so much
I can watch these speed runs indefinitely, the explanations are just so good
I love this type of content!!! It's really really helpful... please keep it up man!! Thanks so much
I really appreciaate these very instructive videos ! :D
Thank you Daniel for this series!!
I have improved a lot watching yout speedrun. Thanks
bishop b4 check in the opening is so elegant. love this!!
Love the emphasis on classical openings and solid middle games. Thank you!
love your speedruns. i love that you play 10 minute (not something faster) and take your time explaining it during the game and also go over some of the lines you thought were important after the game. several IMs and GMs do speedruns, but they just don't do it quite like you
Love this format!! You setting your matchmaking to get very high opponents is great for us! We get really instructional stuff where the opponent does not blunder and in this way you gain 100 points an episode thus keeping the lower rated portion short and sweet
My most played opening is the queens gambit, very helpful to see him go through a position that I commonly encounter
this content is gold, thank you so much
This series has the most informative and helpful by far, Thank you! I feel like it's 800-1400 that really need this level of instructional advice so having games in this range is brilliant.
love these! ty!
As an intermediate player (~1500) your content helps me so much - the way you talk through opening moves and questioning yourself has influenced the way I study chess. Has helped me to connect so many dots in chess game and I'm finally getting over my damn plateau! Much love Daniel!
Great explanation.
The best educational format Sensei has invented. Keep'em coming!
I really like the 'live thinking'; it's very helpful.
Love your videos. I find your games vs 1900-2200 most instructive.
Many thanks.
Thanks Danya!!
I think this series focusing on maximum educational value is going to blow up the channel. I love when you grind out those pawn up end games, I find it super instructional. If you want to make games that most people want to watch, try for e4 games, just go e5. For d4 games, just go d5. This is what almost everyone plays, and those are super educational. You could call it the e4-e5 d4-d5 classical climb the rating ladder series, it would be super instructive.
I hope there will be a few dozen similar speed runs and then some!
You are the best chess educator. Seriously.
Danya is amazing at teaching thousands of players with this series
Coming back to his content is like meeting an old "friend" you never knew you missed that much. :>
As a 1900 player, I still learn really cool things in every upload. Great stuff!
Man, this instruction that focuses on fundamentals is very helpful.
Thank you for the educational games danya
I will forever watch these speed runs even if you did the same thing over and over. However these traditional slow play is very enjoyable to watch and helpful
Hey Danya, I mentioned this on your server a while ago, but:
It would be an amazing resource for beginners to have a book (or a less involved format like a Lichess study, ebook, or maybe even Chessable course) with games analyzed and annotated by you WITH BEGINNERS AND INTERMEDIATES IN MIND, in the spirit of Logical Chess Move by Move or even Best Lessons of a Chess Coach.
You're have a natural ability to explain even complex ideas in a very understandable and concise manner, and I feel like a game collection with simple, general-purpose annotations (of games understandable to beginngers/intermediates; maybe even consisting of beginner games) by you would be a boon the chess community. Have to imagine with your established audience it would sell quite well, too. I certainly would buy a copy or two.
I know "write a book" is roughly a million times easier said than done, but I really struggle to find up-to-date game collections to recommend to newer players, so I thought I'd put this idea out here.

YOU DROP EVERYTHING
My favorite series!!!!
Very interesting. You are just awesome.
please never quit speed running !#goat
Very interesting.
Emphasizing middle gameplay and fundamentals? I'm in! I can definitely learn more of that.
I will subscribe and like it with pleasure. Many thanks.
We love speed runs!!!!!

Thank you Danya now I can stop playing Jerome's Gambit all the time
I am a huge fan of yours and your videos. from BANGLADESH.
You are just awesome.
That was a very strong 1400, seemed like he knew 11 moves deep into theory and played that mid/endgame relatively perfectly too
Yeah more like 2000. He’s a sandbagger
Maybe he is only 1400 in rapid.. And higher in other kind of games(blitz, bullet, etc.)?
Thanks
I don't think the ending to the game was anti-climactic at all, mainly because I learned something about the endgame. You converted your passed pawn into a kingside pawn majority by tricking your opponent into going after your rook extremely effectively. Many players in the 1000-1400 level would make the mistake of thinking they have to go all out with the king in the endgame to prevent the pawn from promoting. Even the move Rb1 served the double-purpose of making space for your pawn + allowing White's King to continue advancing towards your passed pawn and rook instead of forcing him to continue defending the pawn on f2. Great instructive game!
Always find it really strange when your chat suggests someone is cheating in a simple position like this. I'm like 1200 and have played 98% games in simple positions. We didn't pose any crazy problems (our strategy was to play simply after all) and the opponent didn't make any weird-looking moves. There's no reason to think they aren't legit.
Because completely impossible to equalize a gm with such low rated player even gm playing simple move . Unless other player also gm made dummy account.
You got high accuracy because you also playing with low rated player .
Strange segue into "we" in a comment about not cheating there ;-)
@@datualiomar3333 Completely impossible?
@@garbanzobeans6228 do you think low rated player can equalize to gm for alot of move already played .
@@datualiomar3333 wrong
I really appreciate this, I hope the viewers don't get scared off by more boring positional chess, I need more by the numbers advice
🐐🐐🐐
epic!
I’d be pretty livid if I was 1,400 and lost to a 800💀
Until that Elo refund hits, I'd be looking for a new hobby lol
The next question is, what the hell is a 1400 doing losing all those pawns on the left side? That seems like a 1100 blunder.
He was running towards a scary looking passed pawn. Not a good decision but one that's not obvious either if you don't have Danya telling you what he should do. It was more bad time management than anything. He should have thought longer there. The rest of his play was great.
@@DudeTastic13 they are 1400 for a reason. If they stopped blundering pawns they’d be easy 1800 or even 2000. If they stopped blundering altogether they’d be 2300+ easy lol
@@ethanl.1699 this is the most stupid comment ever, if I stopped blundering I’d be 2800+
Very similar… we don’t care. Your content is gold. Hope to see more and more. Thank you.
Love this! Daniel is one of the few chess CZcamsrs who can explain master level concepts in a way that lesser players can easily understand. Openings, middle games, end games, tactics, position. I wasted so much time trying to learn this things on their own. Daniel not only teaches these things, he teaches you how to put them all together!
He says it's weird when a 1400 loses a completely drawn endgame. I call it the story of my life.
5:01 that’s a fact, ayy
Throw it back, ayy
And this one is for the champions
I will subscribe and like it with pleasure.
As a ~1500 i think the reason he played good moves is bc some of us are good at midgame & some openings, but we don't know or understand much how to play endgames. (lack of study, midgames are the funniest part imo)
Thanks danya!
Nice
2:48 - Apparently it's called the Orthodox Defense?
Edit: The Orthodox Defense - Capablanca System in English as well, apparently.
these are the 1400s I play against
"This is gonna be a draw"
Me: "Yeah no, he's gonna blunder."
Wow great gane
The Speed Run is baaaackkk!!! SHE’S ALIVE!! Thank you Danya. You’ve made a 40yo man (tomorrow) very happy. Make them forever. Pretty please. I’m here for it.
why arent you happy today
@@trequor lmao
oh man i was excited to see cambridge springs in action, but then Be7 oof
The only reason to really prefer White's position (reached around 7 minutes) is that White has the very typical 4-2 against 3-3 pawn structure, which I think slightly favours White in the endgame. But everything is so solid that if Black plays well, White really has to be a Carlsen-level positional squeezer to get anything out of that, I think. I love reaching these sorts of positions as Black. Often these quiet, solid pawn structures can provide very quick and violent pawn breaks. This system kind of reminds me of the Lasker variation of the QGD, but the knight goes to e4 instead of d5.
stronk guy
Night Daniel
I had a very similar game with this just recently. I'm 1100, white was playing London and I play as black. It was a very positional game, I kept baiting the opponent to create a weakness, exploiting them, and force them to trade every now and then.
It lead to a knight and a rook end game with my pawns completely intact with no weakness, no infiltration point, with my rook occupying the only open file in the game with and I was up 4 pawns. It was somehow a boring game with no tricks and fancy moves, but it's one of my best game due to how solid my play is throughout the entire game.
Yayyyyy
Me, literally a 1600: hmm, I'd play c6 here, idk.
Danya: the move I learned here that I played up until 1600 was c6, so let's go with that.
Me: *surprised Pikachu face*
Thank you so much for caring about your community. That's that's why I gifted 69 subscriptions in twitch multiple times. You deserve it. You work very hard and you deserve to get paid for what you do.
Nice
Dang the rd6 at 9:55 was tasty
lol his opponent plays the exact way I used to like 10 years ago😂
Do you have a video discussing h6 in the qgd? It feels like this is a great example where inserting h6 Bh4 would have helped black as a free tempo for luft.
That poor 1400, feeling like he got completely schooled by an 800
The English name for that line is basically the same as the Russian. It's called the "Capablanca freeing maneuver".
Senpai, can you do some vids on openings? (Not just ideas and lines, but also how to best learn them.)
Nice Daniel! Now You have to do the Catalan!! Would You???
After white's Qxa2, was Rb3 any good to try to trap the queen and attack b7 pawn?
This guy plays like me: "Oh, that's a really good move. Yeah, this guy is good. Oh my, what is he doing? He just blundered 3 of his queens. Alright, I'm going for a win now!" :D
Guy had a stroke at the end 😅
These speedruns are top tier chess content. I wouldn't mind if every single video of yours was just another speedrun.
Want to see Duras gambit. my favorite pet line after people started being able to know theory to my scandi trap (blackbourne kloobuster gets destroyed by bishop trading for knight)
I think the passed pawn spooked him
“what is he doing?”
why is it the 3rd speedrun whereas in the playlist section I see "The Sensei Speedrun", "Masterclass Speedrun", "Beginner to Master Speedrun" AND "SpeedRun"? :) seems like the 4th one?! I've only watched 1 so far
edit: btw this is amazing content, keep it up! :D
How does the dxc4 Nd5 simplifying plan compare with the Lasker defense?
