    What I found interesting about this game was:
    1) how safe Ben played. He moved his king so many times.
    2) How he used his castle pawns to attack after moving his king into the corner
    3) The ending was just an insane example of how black can defend and make a perfect comeback

      I hate this pretentious bs in chess. Chess in general is definitely enjoyed by many old people... perhaps not on the top level but this goes for any sport. If you were talking about boxing, i'd understand.

    • @Brusselpicker
      @Brusselpicker 4 місяці тому

      Chess is comparable to mathematics in that the older you get the less great work you do, most chess players will hit a peak in their late 20s to early thirties then decline slowly. You can name exceptions, Mikhail Tal or Paul Erdős but in general age does play a significant part.

    AWESOME! The one I watched yesterday was great, too. This one I pulled my board out and set it up when he was attacking with the rook, knight, and queen to see what I would do while pausing the video. When you finally withstood his offense and put your queen on the diagonal from his rook, he moved his king off the row and you took his rook! I noticed you pulled your fist down as if to say: "Yeah!!"
    Thumbs up!
