This is one of the best games I have ever seen. The impeccable play by both sides to make this happen made me speechless. Some of their moves are comparable to some of the best moves ever played in chess. By the time the game ended I nearly went into shock from the beautiful waves the pieces have made on the board. This game will go down in history as one of the best games played between 2 players.
Unfortunately experts have theorized that this game was actually played by two of the strongest chess computers in existence, so this game might not actually be between two "players."

Reminds me of starting out against bots. Once I actually had an overwhelming advantage I'd practice promoting as many pawns as I could without letting the computer force a draw
Notice that in the position preceding stalemate, all possible moves by white (Kg3, Kh1, Kh2 and Kh3) were leading to checkmate with 4 different promotions, and in all 3 relevant cases, these checkmates with underpromotion would have been the best variation ; plus, all underpromotions could be used : Kh1 f1=R# (mate in one, it also works if you promote to queen) Kh3 f1=B+ Kg3 Qg2# Kh2 f1=Q+ Kg3 Qg2# Kg3 f1=N+ Kh3 Qh2#

Man i watch your videos every night before I sleep. This one had me laughing like crazy. You should do more, they are funny and with that twist of education and respect for beginners it makes for a great revipe. Great content Levy
Actually id love if Stockfish or AlphaZero or Leela teams would develop an engine which has an "okay, but lets say i cant see this move" feature. Like if there is a #1 move for black for every turn, then you can just X that move out, and ask the engine to give an expert analysis of what an ELO 500 player sees. That would be awesome. Like imagine analysing the position at 10:00 without the white queen giving mate on d5
Nothing is worse (chess wise) than seeing instances in a chess game that Gotham laughs at and as you laugh along with him, you slowly lose your smile because you realize that you have made that same mistake he is laughing at!
6:02, i think that for white taking the rook is better because after bxh8, the rook moves to b1 and there is no way to protect the knight on b8 that i can see, with the battery of the rook and bishop
I remember a game of chess with a friend where he stalemated a very similar position against me saying that he won because I had no legal move left. That was the best learning experience for me and till that day I watch out for not stalemating.
