07:20 I totally agree with you, Antonio, Daniil being so skilled at messing up his opponent's strategy at crucial moments. I really like his style too, his gimmicks that I imagine the AI doesn't share because - I think - they are outside the logical box and more psychological than tactical-strategic to create advantage or victory.
Hi ! In the pause the video moment we miss when you drink something while the wait ! Also wanted to ask where is the world champion Ding Liren ? it has been an eternity since a video of him appeared on the channel. Regards.
@agadmator you have to cover that Magnus vs Aniish gigi, where magnus sacs his queen fpr 3 of white'minor pieces. It was crazy i have never seen anything like that
Kramnik himself was accused of cheating on much higher level during his championship match against Topalov, i cant "unremember" seeing a photograph of coaxial cable hanging from the ceiling in the bathroom as part of that drama when checking this episode some 2 years ago.
Great Games Agadmator Strong moves by Dubov Black just falling short trying to get his passed pawn on the a file down the Board I figured the key move bringing the Rook to Check Black king and both options and outcomes of either move by Black the second game just a devastating offensive assault by Black capturing the knight defender very clever I guess Rapport had his last chance to make a mistake underestimating Rook capture knight Game Over Only one came out the forest 🤩
The claim at 2:45 puzzles me. According to antiono, some strong player played axb5 and won the game? Ndx5 wins a clean piece for white. If exd5 just Rxa8, if Rxa1 you have Nxf6+ before recapturing. How on earth did white still lose?
I had the honor to watch the game live. I visited Düsseldorf and could see all the players. It was awesome just to see all of these legends in a single room. Dubov looked so calm and composed. I also got signatures and selfies with many superstars like Anand, Levon, Fabi, Vidit. It was an incredible day!!!

8:39 How is it not spectacular? You just win the a pawn and if black trades you immediately threaten the c pawn, no? Then I guess he can use his tempo to trade b2 for c6 but then you just put the rook on the b file and his rook is trapped under the b3 pawn guarding it, you can eventually bring in the king to dislodge his rook, and you have an automatic 4 on 2 majority on the king side as well. How is that ever a bad line for white? I'm genuinely confused.
Antonio, I'll help you out. You took a while explaining why people like Dubov style but you were unable to find the word. It's called "unorthodox" You can't expect his moves, and that's why he is liked.
I thought the same, had to resort to the engine to figure out the problem: 1...Ba6 2.Bf2 [Only move: counter attacking the queen and now black must trade queens or retreat] 2...Bxe2 3. Bxg3 Bxf3 and black is up only a pawn. -0.58.
I will say it again...the picture of Alexander appears to look like a statue made of wax. Grischuk should get a new avatar portrait made... Grischuk should hire the photography service that took Daniil Doboov's avatar picture...looks like a professional avatar portrait.
Instead of Rxf3 as the winning move, what about just Ba6 immediately? And then after Qxa6 Black would THEN play Rxf3 threatening mate on h2. I don't see how White can escape mate in this scenario, at least not without giving up decisive material. Any comments on this???
I didn't calculate very far but first thing to think about is that black isn't forced to take the piece, I don't see how black continues the attack after Qf2, threatening a queen trade... If Rxf3, then you can always trade queen anyway and fair enough you're down 2 pawns and therefore probably losing, but the game is far from over, maybe you get one back with Rxe6... Not clear at all. Also, even Bf2 looks good, counterattacking black's queen, white is very happy with a queen trade, you're giving back the piece but taking the e6 pawn at the end ot the line and thus end up only down one pawn.
Good analysis. However, after Ba6 (as I suggested), Bf2 (counterattacking black's queen), Bxe2; Bxg3 Bxf3 and black wins a piece with two extra pawns as well.@@nephandi2316
Magnus said the same when he had to win against Vincent Keymer. I had nothing, but I gave him as many opportunities as I could, and when he played "that*" I knew I could do it. *don't remember what move.
6:19 "...you cannot go to the 5th rank. Even if you could, you probably wouldn't want to." A subtle, but incisive comment on taking a draw vs. playing on for a decisive result.
I had to stop watching the video at 0:39 because I live at home with my mom and she has a bad back. She won't be able to clean it up, and I sure as hell ain't doing it either!
02:50 that move makes no sense to me. Since Lei Tingjie is mentioned second i guess she was black and won after this obvious blunder¿i mean happens but since i can't find the game, i am very intrigued.
