    One of the best things about this channel compared to other good chess channels is that the videos aren’t excessively long most people don’t want to watch a 25+ min breakdown keep up the good work man

    I guess it’s pretty hard to make good chess videos… because I’ve seen lots of crappy ones but this dude’s videos are always really good.

    1. b2-b4 is also called the Sokolski opening, after Alexey Sokolski, a Russian master who played this opening very often, quite successful at his level. He wrote a book about it, I have a German translation of it, from 1965. The first game in it is totally crazy, against the unknown Strugatsch, the first moves were 1. b4, e5 2. Bb2, f6 3. e4, the gambit variation.

    That was a Great tactic from Magnus capturing with the Rook sacrificing the Queen but than able to get a Check with his Bishop and another Discovered Check moving the Rook to take the Queen that was Fantastic Thanks for the Game James Enjoy your day

    I found that tactic at the end, thanks for the game. Magnus also won a great positioning game against Hikaru in Bullet Brawl lately, which was also an exciting game to look for as content for your channel😊

    Love that word. Miniature. The Mozart you hear.
    Ask Midjourney to draw Carlsen wearing a thick bear hide, wig, candles everywhere like they cost nothing, a mysterious letter on his chess table.
    Juggling a pawn in his hand. Totally in the tank.

    At 5:38 I briefly thought that Nxe5, threatening Nf7+ then Rg7++ was a spectacular way to win. Unfortunately, Qxf1+;Kxf1 fxg4+ ruined my plan.

    What about Ng5 for a winning move? It's queen or forced mate with the rook, isn't it?

      I think then you just win white queen tho and if rook takes h7 maybe rook f7

    • @eus9
      @eus9 Před měsícem +1

      The black king is in check from the bishop, so it has to either move or have that diagonal blocked by a piece. The queen can't move, so either way, as the queen is attacked by the rook, it is being lost

    Ben Fiengold likes to say a lot of Paul Morphy games were played against Rufus and Dufus...
    Ben is sceptical, the insinuation is that these games (Paul Morphy) were staged but after watching Magnus' opponents I'm inclined to believe that Morphy's opponents were real and real bad at chess...
    My 7 year old can play better than some of Magnus' opponents...
