I compiled a list of Danya’s sayings: - When you find a good move, look for a better one - Don’t let your bishop bite on granite - Your pieces don’t always have to be conquering Mount Everest/ distributing the Covid vaccine - The threat is stronger than the execution - When your opponent plays passively, strike in the center - No need to reinvent the wheel, just develop pieces normally - Bad bishops defend good pawns - You want to perform a task with the piece of least possible value - Sometimes your knights need to go to Frankfurt airport - Keep the tension - Something something potential energy - Queen should be the supporting actress - Loose pieces drop off - A Type 1 Undefended Piece is a piece that is not protected by any other pieces. - A Type 2 Undefended Piece is a piece that is only protected by one other piece (Overloading tactics arise from this) - An outpost is not inherently good - When you’re considering a multiple-move tactic, try flipping the order - If your opponent tries to stop your idea, ask yourself the Sam Shankland Question: What if I do it anyway? - Doubled pawns aren’t inherently bad - Lastly: Rules are meant to be broken
@@pizzaratex4708 Everyone knows (at least I knew it at 1100) that in this variation the Knight on f3 is misplaced for White, I think White was already out of book after …exf6
After the analyse I think Daniel was pretty sure as well. But as a CZcams streamer and respected chess player he just can't take the risk of falsely accuse someone. Let's say it turned out the opponent was indeed a GM playing incognito, then he would look like a really bad looser. And he did not want to take that risk.
@@joakimquensel597 I'm sorry, but it totally doesn't seem that way to me. Daniel clearly stated "if I suspect someone I'm open about it". The moves from his opponent, although extremely good, also seemed very findable by a human (I am only 2250 myself and naturally never play this well, but I did understand the ideas of the moves). Sure, he was cheating, but Daniel honestly seemed to just not think so.
@@ChessJourneyman in many cases that's not true. This game, all moves were understandable and they were not unfindable at all either. My point is not this person was not cheating, my point is Daniel did not seem to think so (for sure) and said so in the video, which is why I disagree with the comment above mine
@@Mathijs_A well the guy WAS CHEATING so what the heck are you blabbering on about? Stop wasting everybody's time (and yours too) and go study chess. ps. Were you the guy who was banned? Are you a cheater yourself? Because you definitely sound like it!
That game was crazy! it felt like some sort of tv show moment where the main character comes across someone unexpectedly powerful and it takes everything to just barely get out of there unscathed. i was very invested
@@andrewbradley3305 I wondered about that. The opponent didn't seem to use his time in a way that was typical of cheaters, but the overall quality of play was just stupid high.
@@synchronium24 Bro if the cheater got just a minimum of brain he knows how to look legit. You guys really behave like you could actually see if someone is cheating by his time control.
@@TimJapan lol everyone was like stop accusing him of cheating and the guy was proven to be cheating, later on, figures. One thing I'm surprised about is how he played so quickly, I figured cheaters have to take longer to check the best move than play it especially in the end game when he had 10 seconds. Maybe that's why he finally made a blunder and lost his rook.
@@epixtille7069 it's because while he was cheating, he's probably a pretty decent chess player himself without cheating. so he'll play the obvious moves. and plus, danny is explaining his moves (taking up time) so the opponent probably had time to look at the top 2-3 variations for each move before danny played them and quickly knew how to respond.
This might be my favorite speedrun episode ever, seeing danya navigate a sketchy position is really instructive and entertaining. I find myself giving up in these yucky positions and this really helps show how to hold on and play it out.
Ok so this was fascinating ... Both playing the best moves, then at Danya's first think (before playing a5), I was following with the engine and the engine was like a5, everything else is bad and I was like erm what, what is even point and then this was directly followed by Danya's explanation ... I still cannot believe this stuff is free! Like the entire game both players were playing essentially only first Stockfish lines! It's funny though how much the engine hates Qa1, it says +3.4 ... Thank you so much for all of this!
This has been the most satisfying game to watchc in the entire speed run until now if you ask me. Just so amazing to see Daniel being pushed to his limits.
18:21 "I'm still lost, thats the fucked up thing about it" I've never been so mad at myself for missing a stream and missing this glorious moment live with GM Twitchchat
I love this series. It's like what Powerplaychess does but the player is also the commentator and it's played and commentated at the same time. It lets me follow the thought process quite clearly (except for those very long calculations that I can't handle even with the video paused).
In fairness to chat Danya's opponent was probably cheating as his account was closed due to Fair Play. Also hysterical how he blundered the rook during time trouble.
I love the accusations every game someone makes a good move. "A 2400 made a strong move? Impossible!" "Someone had 98% accuracy? Must be cheating!" (Which implies Daniel also cheated this game)
you see some people just don't live a good life, so what do they do? randomly accuse people online, I've faced a fair share of cheaters myself and the biggest giveaway is the move time (cheating if it's consistent) and people refraining from making obvious moves, not the accuracy.
In this kind of game I would say 98% accuracy means he's a cheater or a GM. But looking at his profile and game statistics (even before he got banned) shows he is not at GM level. It would be different if he scored this high against an opponent that didn't play as good as Daniel did, and that he got a material advantage early in the game. Then it's much easier to score high on accuracy.
Fantastic video. I found it very interesting to find you play against someone who really could put you to the test. I was hoping you were able to talk to your opponent a bit in this video.
this dood will have nightmares about that draw for years to come ... imgaine getting tricked like that and having over 1 min on the clock lmao ... gotta be crushing
@@exodusxp8094 Danya's great and all but I'm sorry, deliberately hanging your rook to exploit a premove is not resourceful at all, it's a very dirty trick often played in bullet.
Amazing game by Mr. 'Ditsky! Icing on the cake was using tome pressure to grab a free rook, which imo based on the opponents play, seemed qay top accurate and he completely deserved that disrespect from the rook lolol
I looked up at my screen and saw Danya had a rook versus 3 connected pawns and knew it was over so I had to rewind the whole video to see what the heck happened. I'm absolutely baffled that you stalemated in a dead lost position, just wow.
2:11, wow! Either he's really lucky that the knight is still stuck while very deep into the position (without a pawn sac), or he's studied that line, or simply he's just using an engine. Considering that his account was closed for fair play violations, that last-mentioned situation seems most likely.
Daniel I highly suggest you to level your mic audio because every video I watch of yours when the adds kick in the volume is x2 louder and it is so annoying, you are the only youtuber I follow where this happens, very hard to fall asleep while watching your videos :C
I had to stop the game portion of the video and take a break… 3 times! I could smell the wood burning (meaning my brain overheating). It took quite a bit for me to follow, as much as I could anyway. Thank you so much GM Danya for both your sincerity and clarity. You have a wonderful character, young man!
This is what separate very good chess players from true GMs. Ability to find solution in utter darkness. You had absolutely no chance of winning or drawing this game so you made yourself a chance. Mad respect for this movie like ending!
"I'm still losing that's the fu-that's the amazing thing."
He was going to say, the FUnny thing 😛
18:19
Lmao
@@3DxPOD haha yeah but actually he was going to say that. Danya is so wholesome. He never drops f bombs on stream.
The way he anxiously chuckles right after almost saying fuck
"I don't fear one rook in the seventh rank" Famous last words...
Hahaha
Yeah. That rook didn't win any material... but hogtied all of Black's pieces.
yeah, seventh rank is like "im not in your house but so close to your door its even worse"
Lmao
Hahhaahahhaa
I compiled a list of Danya’s sayings:
- When you find a good move, look for a better one
- Don’t let your bishop bite on granite
- Your pieces don’t always have to be conquering Mount Everest/ distributing the Covid vaccine
- The threat is stronger than the execution
- When your opponent plays passively, strike in the center
- No need to reinvent the wheel, just develop pieces normally
- Bad bishops defend good pawns
- You want to perform a task with the piece of least possible value
- Sometimes your knights need to go to Frankfurt airport
- Keep the tension
- Something something potential energy
- Queen should be the supporting actress
- Loose pieces drop off
- A Type 1 Undefended Piece is a piece that is not protected by any other pieces.
- A Type 2 Undefended Piece is a piece that is only protected by one other piece (Overloading tactics arise from this)
- An outpost is not inherently good
- When you’re considering a multiple-move tactic, try flipping the order
- If your opponent tries to stop your idea, ask yourself the Sam Shankland Question: What if I do it anyway?
- Doubled pawns aren’t inherently bad
- Lastly: Rules are meant to be broken
Giiiiirrrrrrrrrllllll
@@Tikorous Damnnn Girlllll
The first saying was Emanuel Lasker's.
risk it for the biscuit is a new one for me
I counted and I have thought of 9 of these while playing games over the last few days.
Account closed for fair play… Daniel drawing a computer, that’s a high level play
they premoved. he still said he should have lost that game and that it is a loss in his book
@@pizzaratex4708 no shame losing to a computer though
Of course he didn’t play like a computer for all moves, he only cheated for some moves (The opening was quite bad for White)
@@claudiog7692 its the classical variation of the caro kann. What do you mean? They played all theory for like 10 moves, probably even more
@@pizzaratex4708 Everyone knows (at least I knew it at 1100) that in this variation the Knight on f3 is misplaced for White, I think White was already out of book after …exf6
UPDATE: THAT FIRST GUY WAS INDEED A CHEATER AND HE'S BEEN BANNED. Danya played a fantastic game and he wasn't outplayed

Holly shit. This was the most intense game in this speedrun series. For a moment I felt like I was losing there. I love this series that much.
yeah very terrifying....I really wanted danya to win... but a draw if perfect.
draw with a cheater?
hold on babe danya just uploaded a 41 minute master class on the caro kann
Damnnn gurl
That game was crazy! it felt like some sort of tv show moment where the main character comes across someone unexpectedly powerful and it takes everything to just barely get out of there unscathed. i was very invested
This guy was kicked. He was a cheater. You can look it up
@@andrewbradley3305 I wondered about that. The opponent didn't seem to use his time in a way that was typical of cheaters, but the overall quality of play was just stupid high.
@@synchronium24 Bro if the cheater got just a minimum of brain he knows how to look legit. You guys really behave like you could actually see if someone is cheating by his time control.
@@Cursein "I wondered about that" is not intended to indicate anything approaching certainty. Suspicion, yes.
@@synchronium24 There is no typical cheater. You don‘t know if someone is cheating if he is clever.
I for one am glad you refute cheating accusations, like it’s somehow impossible for grand masters to ever lose or make mistakes
Meanwhile Ginger GM is giving them out like hot cakes!!
@@lukeedward9748 to be fair to him, he usually levels them at ~1000s who play far above their level, not 2000+ rated players
He actually was probably cheating. The account was closed a month later due to a breach of the fair play standard.

Unfortunately, Danya's opponent got banned. This cheater played a LOT of titled players. damn
This might be my favorite speedrun episode ever, seeing danya navigate a sketchy position is really instructive and entertaining. I find myself giving up in these yucky positions and this really helps show how to hold on and play it out.
that stalemate what a genius 😂😂
I think your opponent might be a titled player, playing on a smurf account. He has played many games against Aman and even won a few games.
But would a GM or even an IM blunder stalemate in the end?
@@HolyNarz it wasnt a blunder, he had to take the rook or its lost
@@tpage8051 hi did not blundered, he premoved, that was danyas trick
@@tpage8051 apparently it was drawn immediately once he blundered his rook. (According to Danya in the video, I didnt double check)
@@tpage8051 No, 3 pawns vs rook was a draw, danya said himself, watch again his analysis.
18:08 was a really smart move putting the rook on an open file
😂
Love this channel. His way of explaining is so clear and thorough. He's such a good teacher.
Ok so this was fascinating ... Both playing the best moves, then at Danya's first think (before playing a5), I was following with the engine and the engine was like a5, everything else is bad and I was like erm what, what is even point and then this was directly followed by Danya's explanation ... I still cannot believe this stuff is free! Like the entire game both players were playing essentially only first Stockfish lines! It's funny though how much the engine hates Qa1, it says +3.4 ... Thank you so much for all of this!
It's pawn moves like a5 that stymie me about GM play. Glad I stumbled on a live explanation of stuff like that.
Love the educational content you make @Daniel. And that you upload more to youtube is best! keep the frequency up!
This has been the most satisfying game to watchc in the entire speed run until now if you ask me.
Just so amazing to see Daniel being pushed to his limits.
you are an amazing streamer , excellent teacher and such a chill personality to watch. thanks for the amazing videos and please keep it up
To me, fairly obvious in last minute of the game - Danya moving instantly because he understands everything. The other guy taking 6 seconds a move.
Just incredible. High level chess. Danya remains essentially undefeated in the speed run but dang. Wow.
he has lost before
@@Gytax0 not in this speedrun
@@shiningshores4808 he did, I think, but only against cheaters so it doesn't count.
@@Kokurorokuko yeah only against cheaters I think. This is his closest against a legitimate player
@@AM-rb4ps The opponent is now banned for fairplay lol
Wow, that was high drama! So much fun to watch. I was riveted to my phone. Great stuff. Thank you!
Absolutely loved watching this. This was a fascinating game. Exciting in every way :)
18:21 "I'm still lost, thats the fucked up thing about it"
I've never been so mad at myself for missing a stream and missing this glorious moment live with GM Twitchchat
How is it possible to misquote so badly lmao
He almost said it
The best part is that the Speedrun lives on! Also, good to see some strong opposition in this game.
Good stream Daniel, I enjoyed your playing and analysis
Very very instructive Video, thank you daniel:)
Damn this felt like a star wars battle where the Jedi apprentice manage to survive a duel with a powerful Sith Lord with a miracle at the end
I love this series. It's like what Powerplaychess does but the player is also the commentator and it's played and commentated at the same time. It lets me follow the thought process quite clearly (except for those very long calculations that I can't handle even with the video paused).
Excited to see the Caro!
This game was rollercoster of emotions, a never saw Danya outplayed this badly
account is now banned for cheating
Thanks very much for the instructive game.
In fairness to chat Danya's opponent was probably cheating as his account was closed due to Fair Play. Also hysterical how he blundered the rook during time trouble.
Oh man, the level of deep positional thinking from a GM is crazy.
Awesome content Danya!
Daniel is so resourceful its just amazing
wah gwaan brother danya, keep it going!
the most beautiful turbo gm swindle ive ever seen, watch this one over and over
An absolutely incredible game.
I love the accusations every game someone makes a good move. "A 2400 made a strong move? Impossible!"

Look up this guy's account - he's been banned for cheating.
This guy was sus I could tell and he was actual cheater
Im 1500 and my best accuracy was 95%, I guess someone at that level could reach 99% in a random game, but anyway that first guy was a cheater
In this kind of game I would say 98% accuracy means he's a cheater or a GM. But looking at his profile and game statistics (even before he got banned) shows he is not at GM level.
It would be different if he scored this high against an opponent that didn't play as good as Daniel did, and that he got a material advantage early in the game. Then it's much easier to score high on accuracy.
Holy **** danya you are the best chess teacher and one of the best chess youtubers, and yet one of the best chess players of the world.
Really a beautiful and instructive game
Hahahaha did not know you had that in you near the end! Awesome!
Haha the first game was a great chess hustler lesson! Sneaky unexpected rook move and forced stalemate. A lot to learn here. Thanks Danya.
Awesome game, immensely well played
I respect the stalemate and the cheeky rook move at the end to win the rook lol
Fantastic video. I found it very interesting to find you play against someone who really could put you to the test. I was hoping you were able to talk to your opponent a bit in this video.
The account was closed for cheating
Nice timing! I'm about to learn Caro Kann.
pawn cube!! lets fucking goooo!
gosh this is a fantastic series
"wait wait let me calculate" 11:49
*Proceeds to look on his engine hidden in his palm*
lol you can see the moment he played with and without engine 😅
So dirty, yet so good! 👏🏻
Awesome game! I jumped out of my seat when he blundered the rook
this dood will have nightmares about that draw for years to come ... imgaine getting tricked like that and having over 1 min on the clock lmao ... gotta be crushing
that was one of the meanest but most resourceful tricky thing daniel could have done. What a fighter.
@@LorenzVandeVenne yes. There was no other way to avoid a loss and he found it and was lucky
@@exodusxp8094 Danya's great and all but I'm sorry, deliberately hanging your rook to exploit a premove is not resourceful at all, it's a very dirty trick often played in bullet.
@@CosyBrew
There's no shame in falling for a trick, it's a learning experience. I think someone who reaches 2700 in Bullet probably understands that
@@FinetalPies I've no idea what point you're trying to make.
That was amazing
Finally, a worthy opponent
Best video ever
when I saw Danya's tactical pawn qube I knew he couldn't lose
😂😂
I cannot believe you got that draw at the end hahaha
Every idea is 'typical' according to Daniel. I'm no gm, but I've been playing chess a long time and some of his typical ideas I've never heard of.
I feel like I am the main character of online chess while watching the speedrun and Danya is my strong, experienced mentor.
This guy switches up his streaming spot every other day
Amazing game by Mr. 'Ditsky! Icing on the cake was using tome pressure to grab a free rook, which imo based on the opponents play, seemed qay top accurate and he completely deserved that disrespect from the rook lolol
tough game, thanks
Props to his opponent. Well played game!
opponent cheated and his account is now banned
I've never seen Daniel under this much pressure against someone who's not a GM. Huge props to the opponent.
Look up the opponent, he got banned
Good game 🤝
* starts throwing stuff around the room *
20 minute game, 20 minute analysis thanks for the good instruction!
THANK YOU DANYA FOR MAKING A CARO VIDEO :)
Amazing game
Highkey thank you high level opponent for giving me another game in the series
The full dirty tricks course would be priceless 😀
Amazing video. I wish to play so beautiful Chess one day
Danya is so nice. Unlike Hikaru and others, always chooses to give the benefit of the doubt about cheaters. Turns out this guy got banned...
Love that feeling when I get off work and there's a new danya speedrun
Also love that feeling when I get off and there's a new danya speedrun
Your the man Naroditsky
I adore the kraken defense
I looked up at my screen and saw Danya had a rook versus 3 connected pawns and knew it was over so I had to rewind the whole video to see what the heck happened. I'm absolutely baffled that you stalemated in a dead lost position, just wow.
That position with the rook vs 3 pawns is actually technically drawn.
Yay, more ELO vitamins!
2:11, wow! Either he's really lucky that the knight is still stuck while very deep into the position (without a pawn sac), or he's studied that line, or simply he's just using an engine. Considering that his account was closed for fair play violations, that last-mentioned situation seems most likely.
That's some phycology there lol 36:41
holy fkn shit that was the most butt-clenching game i have ever seen
Witnessing this masterpiece after 2 years
Спасибо за видео! Очень интересно
That was one dirty draw. But nice desperado trick.
Lol, he tricked his opponent into blundering the rook knowing his opponent would've pre-moved.
Best and most challenging game in the speedrun
Daniel I highly suggest you to level your mic audio because every video I watch of yours when the adds kick in the volume is x2 louder and it is so annoying, you are the only youtuber I follow where this happens, very hard to fall asleep while watching your videos :C
11:55
The way he calculate 😂😂😂😂. Not even looking at the board, I know he's a beast, but for my 1400 eyes, still amazes me
I had to stop the game portion of the video and take a break… 3 times! I could smell the wood burning (meaning my brain overheating). It took quite a bit for me to follow, as much as I could anyway.
Thank you so much GM Danya for both your sincerity and clarity. You have a wonderful character, young man!
This is what separate very good chess players from true GMs. Ability to find solution in utter darkness. You had absolutely no chance of winning or drawing this game so you made yourself a chance. Mad respect for this movie like ending!
The dirty tricks at 18:06 have you no shame Danya
Rapid games against good opponents are entertaining
This right here is why chess is what it is
Ah my favorite opening with black presented by my favorite chess teacher
I'm gonna use that flagging technique lol I need it
Danya went with my automatic black opening. Instaclick for sure
Big fan sir😃
Oh my lands that was nasty
He Hang His Rook But "NOT BY MISTAKE"
