    This game looks as amazing as any of the greats from the past. The game that comes to mind is Larsen vs Spassky, Bird opening. Spassky crushed the king-side and white never got to castle. 0-1 in about 25 moves. The audacity of playing this game like an engine is amazing. It's clearly world champion quality.

    Firouzja did play like stockfish, using his queen very powerfully and accurately. Maghsoodloo is usually a Sicilan player, so his preparation might not have been as good in the Ruy Lopez Berlin defense.

      While it has a different historical origin, begs the question in normal British parlance means a question that is begging to be asked from the given circumstances, ie the same as raises the question. You can read more about the history of the phrase as well as its more common modern meaning at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begging_the_question . Finally, I would suggest it is a good idea to know what you are talking about before you correct the grammar or spelling of others online. Because when you are wrong, you look really REALLY stupid.
