      Well let's see what happens if he doesn't deliver the couch. Other party can't take advantage of the undefended couch as agadmator own the c file in which the couch stayed. But what if agadmator wants to exchange, then he left with less material with a completely lost position, so no point on doing that....
      And lastly ...but not leasty......if the couch stays there the subscribers will keep enjoying the better position of it. So agadmator plays......c4

      Yes, and I think that, in this case, it was classy not to name the company. Antonio is a minor celebrity, so naming them might draw some popular ire, which could be harsh if they are just a little local family outfit.

    I’ve watched every video on your channel since you had 1000 subscribers. At the time I had never really played chess before. I knew the rules from when I was a child, but no idea how to actually play. The only things I’ve learned have been from your videos and I’ve improved significantly. Even the little explanation of the windmill checkmate will help me in future games and you continue to put our great, fun, and educational content. Just want to say thanks for helping me discover the beauty in chess and I appreciate all you do for the chess community. Your daily videos are awesome and the first thing I go to when relaxing at the end of the day. Keep up the good work and as always don’t forget how much we love tal games.

      @crbrearley 5 років тому +9

      But Rosenthal's best result was probably a draw against Capa. Calling him a GM is a bit weird but if you do call him that, he was just barely one and only in modern terms. And what 2500 GM would fail to take a draw when Carlson offered it? Reminds me of Soltis(?) quote: We both agreed to a draw out of mutual fear/respect: him for my much higher rating, me for his much better position!"

    Story behind the couch, deliver company (D), adagmator (A):
    D opens with delivery in one week.
    A replies with removing the old couch to prepare a nice sqaure for the new couch.
    D proceeeds with delaying delivery for one week, this comes with check, so A has to wait.
    A waits as he has no other moves.
    D proceeds with delaying one more day, this comes also with check and as A has the only square he could move planned for helping his mother, this could be check mate. But luckily A's girlfriend moved to protect the king. And it was in this position the players agreed to a draw as here is nothing more to do here for both sides.

    #suggestion When you share with us Capablanca's record in this tournament, say it like "8 for 8" or "8 out of 8". Saying "8 and 8" makes it sound like he has had 8 wins and 8 losses.

    I like the couch, looks nearly identical to mine. While I understand your displeasure with the delivery service, I agree this channel is not the proper place to call them out by name. You should leave a review on their site instead. Thanks for showing us the game and telling us the story of the missing couch.

      I don't think Antonio wanted to stink up his channel with their name.

    Also something to mention here is that the background in the birthday man's picture displays a photo of what seems to me like Swami Vivekananda.. but I'm not sure as it's a small portrayal.. it can be a photo or one of the books of Swami.. if the birthday busy can reply on this, it'd be nice..

    My hope is to see one day a game in which Hoodie Guy is awarded a Morphy Face.

    Damn, if I were White, I would have kept playing. If Magnus would play either color, he'll keep going as White and probably resign early as Black. He'll see this NOT as a draw-ish position, obviously White is winning.
    Even a beginner like me seeing white is winning, what the hell, Jacob? You just get a victory and break Capablanca's winning streak in this tournament. You just gave him a sigh of relief to keep his winning streak.

    I thought that you will say
    “And it was in this position on move 31 that Jose Raul Capablanka resigned the game.”

    Interesting to find Swami Vivekananda's photo in a photo in Agadmator's video
