On vishy ???
Like mikhial tal queen sacrifice but he get suddenly win after that.... mikhial tal the legend and master of queen sacrifice.
Not sure if you guys gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me atm then you can stream pretty much all of the new movies and series on InstaFlixxer. I've been watching with my girlfriend recently xD
@Miles Ben yup, have been using instaflixxer for since december myself =)
EeEE
MVL is french, that's why he never hesitates to sacrifice his Marie-Antoinette...
And He's marching to Bastille Day!
robert lamantin good one!
Let him eat cake!
like any french man he likes to retreat

(joking all respect to mvl)
@@yousefamarneh1508 do you know that still to this day France have the most millitary victory in history?
I could watch these type of videos for hours. Your commentary makes it amazing. Well done keep it up 👍
Simon commentary is magnificent. Entertaining and informative
Word.
He's awesome 👏🏻
Keep it up!!
Very true
I am a simple frenchman, I see MVL, i like the video.
im from palestine and same for me i see mvl i click , my favorite player
for some reason, MVL gives a complete different vibe compared to Maxime Vachier-Lagrave
MVL gives off Rambo vibes and Maxime Vachier-Lagrave gives off James Bond vibes
@@aname4141 The name's Lagrave........Maxime Vachier-Lagrave. Yeah, cool.
In the first position at 1:30 he has two bishops for the queen instead of a rook and a bishop
Exactly.
Yeah
100% true
The second game includes other sacrifices, and a wonderful underpromotion, you should definitely check it out, it was against Robert Fontaine I think
And now he is the World blitz champion
your commentary is so great, keeps it interesting, and keeps my attention the entire time
One of my fav chess series on yt
Amazing tactics from MVL! Thanks for the video!
Nice video.Looking forward to more such videos.
Please show most Brilliant moves of Vishy. I probably guess my own 5 best moves but surely wanna see what you think of his best moves. Awaiting and awaiting to see!! ♥️
So amazing, these all brilliant moves from Maxime Vachier-Lagrave`s is call ''chess art''
Simon, very instructive videos, thank you very much.
You have chosen not to give information about the game, who with? where? when? and I believe that it’s regrettable
I thought only Levy’s commentary could fulfill me but I was wrong. This guy is awesome.
When will we get Anand's most brilliant moves?
Who
@@shsh-lj2yg 5 time world champion Vishy Anand, one of the greatest chess players
Sigue subiendo e esos videos son los mejores que hay en el canal
Are you ever going to do a similar video for The Magician from Riga? May be 10 best moves...
Maybe 10 most insane moves
Hemanta Dahal for tal we would need top 100
not "best" bc engines have refuted several of his sacrifices, but "craziest" moves would be nice.
@@joedorben3504 clock ticking during the match and days of analysis manually and using engine are entirely different things. Crazy is as crazy does 😁
@@Hemanta1991 yes i know tal said something like that about the unsoundness of his sacs, "best", in a chess context, is actually a pretty objective term, so we really shouldnt be talking about his "best" moves
Brilliant format of FIVE best, keep them coming
The rook to d7 is simply orgasmic
Please show who were the opponents it makes the list more interesting
Maxime is very great player, and I inspired by he
This is the best of top 5 moves for me
Wow. Just wow. Brilliant play. I think France really has become a wonderful chess hub what with Bacrot and MVL
The floating piece sacrifice is the extra spice we didn't know we needed
7:31 if the king takes the bishop rather than bishop takes rook then isn't rook on d6 threatening mate to d8 and then take after black rook blocks?
I am late but the best move according to me is 7:29 to not take rxf1 but bxd6 Rb1 (because b1-Q is check) Rc2 with the threat of rc1+.....Ba2 cannot be played because rc1 is also a checkmate forcing black to play rxc1 pxc1-Q
@@urlfacilearetenir there are two things wrong with your analysis. First if rh1+, you don't have to take and can just move to G3 and there is no promotion with tempo. Second, even if you did promote and went to b8, then kh1, and if qxd6, then nxf7+ when blacks gets the queen back with a discoverd check tempo.
@@longdongbongchong Actually you misplaced the Knight, there‘s no possible way for it to check on f7.
I LOVE YOU GM SIMON AND I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Good stuff
Top moves of Ben Finegold please?

Oii I've watched every of your video 3 times so please agadmator's top 5😂
7:33 what if I take the bishop??
I was confused about this also
@pcbh84 how about Rh1+ K ×h1 b1=Q+ Kh2 Qb8, pinning the rook?
Edit : of course W can play Kg3 without taking the rook.
Yea even from afar I was confused about this line and how it could be good for black, which is why I doubted that Rxf2 was the move he played until Simon showed it. The line he gave was blatantly obvious and very trivial, and I was surprised he didnt show the Kxh2 line, which was clearly more critical. If Rf8 then white has Rd1 up two pieces (even Nxf8 allowing b1=Q might still be good for white with R, B, N vs Q), and the only nice looking way to stop mate appears to be h6 or h5, but Im just convinced either of these are winning for black.
Need an answer to this
yes black has that back rank problem
#5 7:21 I did find Rf3 but didn't see what to do if white plays Re1.
Answer is as simple as b1=Q , Rxb1, Qg3
2nd and 3rd game was favourite.
amazing
In that last example it's awesome how his "back rank is weak" but the queen just stand on the open file waiting to be taken so he can deliver checkmate first. "The crossing gaurd defense"
7:32 - 7:34 I prefer Kxh2 instead of Bxf1, as it gets rid of a strong piece and also saves the Rook for white.
In fact, that‘s winning for white! He‘s shown an unsound line
I like Simon's boom, give me so power
1:28 actually, MVL only has the bishop pair for the queen, not a rook and a bishop
Yeah
At 7:33 why not white king just takes bishop to avoid check? Black king is under threat of checkmate so can’t promote queen. So after black king moves pawn to create space simply white bishop watches B1. Right?
Kh2 rh1 u cant take because of b1 queen then kh2 qb8 pin the rook and if kg3 then h6 and now you have 2 past pawns
This is the line I see. Kh2 rh1 Kg3 h6 Bishop a2 watching b1. Black would possibly play a1 to kick bishop but bishop plays b1 rook takes then white rook goes b6.
Julian Drews thank you! That makes sense. I’m by no means a great chess player so I appreciate you checking this out!!
@@andrewgray2632 Bd3 instead of Bb1 would be the right move when Rd8# is unstoppable
@ SimonWilliams your video sound is very low. it is very difficult to hear. but content is good. thanks.
md.nahid Hasan I’m afraid it’s you mate. I can hear loud and clear
Sup! LIKED and SUBSCRIBED!!
In the second game there is a promotion to knight which is the only winning move for MVL, not sure why it was cut off ...
5:56 the last one was the best to me
Great videos - but no lightning in this one?
For MVL’s 6:28
After Black plays Rook X F2
Instead what if white plays
Rook x R f2, Queen X R D1 +, King X B H2
Queen to d6 + , King moves then capture white rook
And now it’s Queen 🆚 Knight & Bishop ... i like the odds 😎
Are you ever going to do a video on Vishy?
5 brillant moves by Judit Polgar ? Girl power
There are other better players before her
Keen
Arkos 11 true
7:29 Simon, you should have considered after Rxf1+ Kxh2 because this whole line is dependent upon this variation turning advantageous for black and for me it is not immediately obvious how black is winning because White’s counterplay is also huge.
Follow it through from there. Sac the rook on h1, queen with check then pin the rook to the king on b8
Suppose they don't have to take the rook though and I'm not good enough to calculate further lol
It’s a really interesting position for me. Plugging it into the computer Bxd6 is forced after rook takes queen. Then black would definitely be winning here.
@@marknewman6820 Rh1+ white goes Kg3 and wins
Mark Newman That’s the exact position where if the Rook is not taken i would need to spend a few minutes figuring out who is better in that position.
does anyone know from which game is the last diagram?
Nothing excites jaded Grandmasters more than a theoretical novelty.
Same comment on chessbase India's channel
You're becoming really annoying
He changed the name of his channel so he didn't get banned.
Paul Morphy wow thats low
At 5:50 didn't work also Ne8 with th same idea?
Brilliant.
Next can we have 5 best moves of Dubov
Okay so this is probably quite dumb, but in the last one after Rxf1 just Kxh2 and white is threatening checkmate next move. And after probably h6 just Bxf1 and white will have a rook, bishop and knight for a queen. Ik theres probably a move im not seeing but just had to comment this.
Wesley So plsss
4:34 black Rock to f6 . White queen MUST run away and the attack is stopped. Any solution to this one?
Alright I am stupid. I understand
His absolute best move : Losing on purpose his many qualifying death matches for the Candidate tournament so that he qualified not even with the wildcard but with no pressure and stress afterwards.
I guess clairvoyant is a french word too :-)
The current Candidates Leader, nice.
In the last game, what if white plays Kxh2, threatening checkmate with the Rook on d8?
MVL is class.
Please, Simon does Tal's most brilliant
At 5 th pozition, white also have Ne8 to deliver chessmate
At 5:44 doesn't Ne8! also work? It seems to have even more elegance. - j q t -
Brillant player. He is on twitch....thank god my grandma teached me french lol
But not English
@@KeshavKumar-po5th who cares
An example ON THE CHESS BOARD.
Mikhael Tal best move:")
Who are his opponents?
7:31, why not kxh2, and then black can't queen due to back rank threats, and then take the rook with the bishop and have a winning position?
Rxf1is the wrong move after the Rook takes Queen. The correct move is to take the Rook by the Bishop. Then White has to lose his Rook to eliminate the b2 pawn and black wins.
He doesn't have "a rook and a bishop for the queen", as you say, but two bishops!
Why don’t you do about Le Quang Liem most 5 briliant chess move
When u are planning to show vishy Anand moves and Mikhail tal moves
We want milhail tal top5 plz
Why isn't Nd7+ better in the 4th one? If BxN, Qh8 is mate immediately. If RxN, Qh8 Ke7, QxR, threatening Qd8 mate, or if QxN, RxQ, and then either BxR Qh8 mate, RxR Qh8 as above and white will be up a queen, or Ke8 and white has a number of options, such as RxR, Rxb7, Rxf7, etc.
Agreed. Any of the following conditions could be possible with:
Nd7+ Rxd7 Rxd7 Bxd7 Qh8#
Nd7+ Bxd7 Qh8#
Nd7+ Qxd7 Rxd7 Rxd7 Qh8#
Or I am making a mistake somewhere?

May god protect you from corona dear Simon Williams.
# suggestion 5 greatest move of anand
If rook takes the queen, and then the black rook takes on d8, and the the king takes in h2, black can't promote a queen because the white rook can do a background mate.
Is he the next tal.
2:29 I am laughing for 2 hours
You should tell us if they won the game tho, it’s not all the time in which you do that
7:25 is a blunder if rook takes the rook on f1 the king can take the bishop on h2 remember black will not have time to advance the porn because of his back rank weaknesses hence the black rook on f1 will be taken and black will have lost(blundered)
The porn ?!!
no, he can't; it's protected by the queen.
I play just like MVL, I'm always sacrificing my queen-- whether I know it or not.
Sir please make a Video featuring top 5 plays of GM Wesley So.
7:31 what about Kxh2
you should play Bxd6 instead of Rxf1+, Rxf1+ Kxh2 is actually better for White
7:31 why not king takes bishop, threatening mate on the next move with the rook. Now simply promoting will result in mate. So Maxime has to play h6 and then bishop takes rook and white still has 2 pieces and a rook for the queen which will atleast be a draw if not a win.
6:13 if rook take rook in d7?
Not sure but I guess he wins the exchange Rxd7 Nxd7+ (Bxd7 Qh8++ ) hence Qxd7 Qh8+ Ke7 Qxa8
sdbaets After Nxd7+, Bxd7 is NOT necessary. It’s Qxd7 by black! But still White is winning the exchange after Qh8+ followed by snapping the black rook on a8.
@@terrifictamal read my full comment, "Hence..."
@@sdbaets yup :)
Who was the first victim?
Pls do anands top 5
won't happen, there isn't any
MVL Is the MVP🖤
Why are most modern chess player names difficult to pronounce?
Bro make a top 5 chess game of Mkhail Tal
SOUND is very low !!! (last 2 videos, too !)
The professor do play chess.
7:30 Rxf1 is a losing move because of Kxh2... Black should instead play Bxd6 in order to win
Where is 5 time world champion Vishy Anand ? Simon ?
tal? u forgot about the best one
next is Rajabov.
There are some beautiful moves which are not a sac nor a way to checkmate.
No Rh7?
