  • @misterkefir
    @misterkefir 9 років тому

    Soooo.. Is it Botvinnik or Tal who is playing white? Cause the lecturer keep on saying that it's Botvinnik, while the title says it's Tal..

    • @weitiongteng6503
      @weitiongteng6503 8 років тому +1

      white is botvinnik, title states tal-botvinnik because it is a world championship match with two as champion and botvinnik as challenger. In the description it actually states (Botvinnik-Tal) for the game.

    @eigentools8568 9 років тому +3

    Such a nice chap... mocking people, unable to control his facial gestures. If there is huge rating gaps within your audience, which you could have (or have) crafted as a lecturer, make sure you have enough emotional intelligence to handle the situation. If this was an isolated incident, well it was just bad scenery, but its widespread in Akobian videos. Disgusted by lack of character.

    • @akilansundaram2181
      @akilansundaram2181 4 роки тому

      Exactly. I didn't like the way he treated her. It was sad. She seemed very childish but laughing is not a great thing to do. He could have simply told her that's not how pieces move.

      ***** if you checked my comment, i didn't mean any insult, actually my point of view states the following; asking stupid questions is the mean to become smarter, so of course its a way in the right direction, regarding your question, I live in Egypt, where the whole population is ultimately stupid, those don't know how to even ask stupid questions !! :D
