    Sometimes people forget how unbelievably strong Fabiano actually is, especially in classical time format. Dude has the 3rd highest rating of all time. Magnus has himself said multiple times he considers fabi to be the toughest opponent he faced and the closest anyone has come to dethroning him. It always somewhat bugs me that major chess platforms and creators almost never talk about his achievements and rarely promote him. We need more people to throw light on this man's career, because he is an absolute legend of the game

    when Fabi played Magnus for the world championship..of course everyone knows they played 12 draws....this is very important because i never believed a match so important should be decided by blitz...the point is....had the match continued till a winner using classical time controls history could very well be different because i do not believe Magnus was a stronger player than Fabi during that match....

    Hello
    First of all i want to say i really like your content and you seems like a very likable guy:) Subbed and looking forward to more videos from you.
    One thing, if i may give a advice: It seems you look away from your interview object and fiddeling with your hands/fingers when you talk to them or asking questions. That can put some people off, and loose their intrest in the conversation. It can also get them to feel uncomfortable and steer the converasation in the wrong way. It was maybe more notisable in the Nepo video.
    Just a friendly advice from someone who has worked with presentation etc.
    And good luck with your master and chanel😊

    I think it's not possible to detect cheating 100% of the time through statistical means alone, but if they want to develop the online prize tournament, they can develop software for prized chess tournament that can run in the background to detect if other programs are accessing stockfish or like a exam software where you can't exit the program unless the tournament is over and also have a camera that can detect your pupil movement to check if youre using your phone or staring at second computers etc. it's doable, just not in a browser.
