GG Sam !! Thanks for sharing. Very cool attack with that opposite castling, always fun to see those ideas of claiming space early on :) I guess after g5-h4 he couldn't hope for more than a draw already.

[@sam_copeland]

Well, he can always hope I'll mess up, but it's certainly tough for him!

[@BraydenPlaysWithStyle]

I love how you just ingnored all of his attacks and didnt care about winning the rook

[@jordanantunes3678]

congratulations Sam! love your channel

[@emmahird2795]

Great game and great video!
One question: at 5:14 you say that Qg4 is a computerish move. While I agree It's less natural than taking on g7, why do you think it's so unintuitive?

[@sam_copeland]

Good Q: I'm probably a bit biased because I know it's a computer move, but I think there's a strong inclination to DO something when I've saced and feel time is pressing. Qg4 is fairly patient which doesn't trouble computers, but I think almost any human choosing not to retake the piece would want to capture on g7 unless they see ...Nb4!!

[@kvdzwan]

Wow! Speechless. And happy to see you back again!

[@sam_copeland]

Cheers! It's been hard to find time to work on CZcams with a young family, but I hope to find more time :)

@@sam_copeland I understand, Sam. But if you'll ever have the time to create a new series: "Best games of the 2020's", then you already got one game... 🙂

[@petersiegfriedkrug]

Excellent made. Congratulation. This video is in both cases excellent. In the video itself and in the brillant game also. This was well deserved. This attack was great. I like also Nf5
