Usually Agad puts the pic of the winner in the thumbnail, I love how he didn't do it this time as this is such an exciting game and spoiling the winner would be sad.
Nah mate. He puts the ones who he makes us think is gonna win.
The picture is randomly decided to not ruin the game
Fabi’s preparation is just overwhelming, he always uses few minutes in the early game. Sometimes he gets lost, but this time he played pawn to b4 and you all know what it means….
Fabiano's preparation and calculation skills are always incredible. He isn't World Champion only because Magnus exists.
@@Litwinel or because rapid tiebreaks exist, Magnus couldn't beat him in 12 classical games
he is a machine...he improves a lot after 2018
@@saikatsingha4403 he improved a lot losing Elo, cool..
@@pragmatica_fantasy3874 What a dumb argument! Elo fluctuation is a normal thing. Fabi is still a beast.
This was such a thrilling game! Purely GM level fighting chess. Someone should map the whole journey taken by Alireza's King in this game.
Fabi played a magnificent game. When he plays like that nobody can beat him.
Preparation, time strategy, technique.
welp actually in reality fabi lacks time controle which is why he usually is bad at rapid
Actually, he won because he played b4
Magnus can
The fact that Fabiano plays so well yet failed to beat Magnus shows how strong Magnus is . I'm not a fan of Magnus but I really think that someone really needs to think out of the box to beat Magnus . Fabi usually plays theory like a machine and he did that in 2018 vs Magnus again and again until Magnus held his own and struck . There was recently a game where Mamedyarov shocked Magnus and destroyed him with some weird manoeuvre and this is also one of the reasons why Nepo is leading vs Magnus one on one .
@@wilmerurbina5108 As long as Magnus has a blitz playoff after he doesn't defeat Caruana in classical chess he can. Magnus demonstrated that he's too weak to defeat Caruana in a classical match.
Man, Fabi needed that win I bet. He’s been on a bit of a bad run lately and this has got to be a confidence booster. Go Fabi!! #teamfabi
its unfair to call this a bad run. he hadnt lost a single game and had two wins .
@@betterthanyou3465 Sorry, I didn’t mean this tournament. He’s been playing strong for the Grand Swiss. But, he’s been uncharacteristic over the last month or two (IMHO 😀)
@@jpalioto1 I agree. I saw Fabi as an undefeatable monster in classical but this year exposed a somewhat "human" side of Fabi.
@@betterthanyou3465 we love fabi and expect him to win more!
even with the bad run, and losing classical points/placement on live, he is still like top 2-3 with Anish atm (in my opinion). In a few years, geniuses like Alireza will overtake him, but now i would consider him harder to beat the Magnus, (but harder to lose as well). Both him and Anish are playing very defensevly, and with the preparation, knowladge and experience they have, its really really hard to break that.
Amazing Game. Worthy match for both #3 and candidate spot. Also congrats to David Howell on tying for first with Fabi and Alireza.
Yes yes david howell
i had no idea david howell even played at this level these days. very cool. the only really good english player since nigel short?
he has won 4 games in a row

@@TheWaxlemon youngest britain GM ever, also placed 11th in 2019 Grand Swiss, missing out on winning the entire tournament by losing to Wang Hao in the final round.
Any great chess match is incomplete without your coverage 💯
well deserved comment @Brax Sim
Any chance of a howell game? Absolute beast has won his last 4 games in a row.

Kaja Snare gave him mystic powers to win.

He said that in the end
he legit said it in the end of the video lol
Watching your detailed analysis of the game is like seeing the whole onboard drama as well as the thought process behind every move. I just love how you even show the sidelines. It makes the analysis more dynamic. love your work!
Fabi is definitely a machine... The way he was playing just so that Alireja doesn't even gets a little time advantage and in doing so he hadn't made any mistakes, every calculation was on point.
Maaaaaann, if David comes out on top I can only imagine Jovanka's reaction.
She would tear her ear off
@@cheron5630 gotta wonder if she would be on his team for preparation, considering how well they worked together just analyzing positions. I'm really stoked to see if he will be there.
Josip Tito's wife?😂
I'm not ready watching Candidates 2022 commentary when Magnus become the host and need to invite fellow GM to join him.
@@amun1040 hahahahaha, great comment
Battle of the glasses guys! I love it
😂😂😂
Bruh😂
I honestly pause the video every time when it's time to pick the best move. I am just learning how to play chess, and my favorite is trying to figure out problems (though I've heard that is not the best way to practice chess because most positions won't appear in a real game). However in my defense, for someone who has very little experience, it allows me to think in a different way, as far as an approach that I normally wouldn't that I think is very beneficial and even if it's not the same position in a regular game, I will be able figure out a better move when otherwise I'd be blind to other posibilities.
That being said, whenever I get the right answer for a correct move in any agadmator's challenge, which doesn't happen often (however, I managed to be successful this time) it honestly feels so good.
Agad, if you read this, you have a great way of explaining the game and I was wondering if you ever considered making a type of educational/tutorial/training video? Such as common openings, common attacks, common defense, types of strategies. I think it would made a great series, and hopefully I am not the only one who thinks this, but I'd watch the hell out of them.
He's made a couple videos discussing specific openings or just going over a puzzle instead of a whole game. They're few and far in between though, so I agree that it'd be nicer to see them more often
Great game! I enjoyed mentioning the players’ time; you can feel the pressure
Thanks Tony. We were all waiting for your video
The tiebreaks look good for Caruana, mainly thanks to David Howell who has won four straight games after losing to Fabi.
Firouzja still leads the tiebreak
The good stuff, finally.
Thanks for not spoiling the winner in this video title or thumbnail, I was excited to watch your coverage of the game unfold not knowing who won. Please keep it like this for the rest of the tourney!
Thank you! This game will be noteworthy in time to come. Awesome analysis!
Fabi just showed us he's having a bad time otherwise he does belongs in 2800 category
Nah, he's good but he's not there yet. This game shows it. Firouzja has been in fantastic form this tournament, so there's no reason to think he's having a "bad time."
@@mercronniel3122 He's talking about Fabiano not Firouzja
@@mercronniel3122 what I was saying is Fabi was having a bad time like he wasn't upto his standards in the first phase of candidates and in Tata Steel Chess Wijk Aan Zee, he started well in the second phase of candidates but couldn't continue that (loosing to Anish Giri and just a draw against out of form Ding and loosing to Wang Hao). And this is the right time for to be back and cement his spot for the next candidates
I did watched this game on live stream but still was waiting for your video on this game!! You are doing great job man!!
I guess know we know what happens when the unstoppable force (firou) meets an immovable object (fabi)
Well I guess the unstoppable force is actually stoppable in this case.
@@nookb280 He misspelled Firo, I think he meant Magnus
I thought there will be an elastic collision (draw).
That b4 novelty in the opening, Nd5 sham sac, bishop sacrifice to stop Firo's passed pawn, and a crazy rook offer and pawn sacrifice in the endgame. Man, give applause to Fabi.
Fabi has to finish in top 2. I can't imagine candidates without Fabi. Such a class player especially when it comes to longer time control.
@@johanneboor8517 No he hasn't.
@@soumajitdas2044 Oh wait yes my fault
If not this, there's still the Grand Prix, and with how talented of a player he is I'm sure he'll find a way to qualify
@@cooperrondinelli6576 I personally think Grand prix is going to be much tougher than Grand swis since there'll be ton more super GM's there.
Tbh, i can't imagine candidates without Grischuk. 5 times in candidates feels like he is permanent in that tournament.
If David Howell winning the Grand Swiss. This tournament will be the most dynamic and most unexpected Fide tournament in 2021
He almost won the last grand swiss but wang hao stopped him
A non 2700 qualifying for the candidates would be really interesting
b4 was the winning move obviously, as that is when Fabi started to dictate the flow. Got to say, been greatly enjoying following Fabi games for the last month. Fabio may be future champ 1 day, his chess is so sharp and energetic. Magnus is so incredible though. Magus ability to press the tiniest advantage into a win is well, what makes Magnus the current GOAT.
sorry for longer video? What? I love these videos. When you cover the games as they are and don't strip commentary for length, your videos stay amazing. If the game demands a longer video, please by all means do a longer video :) thank you for the channel!
Wow this was exhausting but in a good way. the analysis and time spent felt very meaningful and I look forward to more of these types of videos.
I LIKE the long videos! They're usually the most interesting games.
At 3:37, white attacks the black queen with Nc1, forcing her to go to a1. If white then plays Rb1, the queen is lost.
#suggestion
Any of David Howell's last four games, which he won consecutively. Particularly his one against Esipenko.
He said that in the end
Great Coverage!!! Thank you.
Great analysis Tony!
That was awesome. Fabi monstered through that ending with speed moves. Love it
A fascinating game to follow, especially with Agad’s help …. Thanks.
Fabiano's eyes are so funny in the thumbnail , it's like he wants to steal something but cares no one to see 😅😆
That Fabi pawn to B4 move was some serious stock fish or alpha zero prep!!! Never seen this opening!!
Would be heartbreaking for Firouja if he misses the candadite spot
Nice game, thanks ! Good to see Fabiano in charge. Putting the Reza in time pressure. I get the feeling Fabiano works really hard with the theory prep. Great stuff
What a great game, that's what we get when we see b4 on the board.
Fabi won a brilliant game, but this highlighted even more how great Firouzja is. Up until knight d4 he was okaish in a critical position with few min on the clock
#suggestion Boris Gelfand's 4 Queen game from the same round
When Fabi is on fire 🔥, he really is on another level from everyone else. Either equal or slightly lower to Magnus.
Firouzja remains a favorite to qualify for the candidates event, although he might still be a couple years away from being able to win it. This will come with more experience against elite players - he already dominates the others.
Yeah, I'm a huge fan of Fabi's complicated torture style but I have to say that this win is more about one player being extremely experienced in classical chess, balancing his time and deep thinking and the other player just wants to crack it so bad and commits too much time for it. Fabi could try to find improvements, as some of them mentioned by Agad but that would also give Firouzja enough time to consolidate. Instead he played moves that would preserve the advantage and let Firouzja to disprove it on a really short time.
I can see that two or three years older Firouzja would treat the position differently.
he may win the candidate as well after winning this tournament
So when Firouzja destroys others - wow, look how dominant he is! He is the future! Yea man! (& rightfully so)
When Firouzja gets destroyed - its more exp. for him
So thats how this goes? Ok got it 👍🏽
@@BK_Beloved Well, when Firouzja will stop getting destroyed by Fabi and Magnus (is destroyed the best description ? I'll go with "beaten"), it will be time to stop telling he's the future and to begin telling he's the present, right ? ^^
@@BK_Beloved Magnus also loses a classical game. but what we dont see often is a 2780 player wipe out the whole group of 2650s like a serial killer.
Great Game, GG Fabi
#suggestion Boris Gelfand vs Sergei Movsesian round 9, 4 queens at the board and completely crazy position :)
seconded
Brilliant game, outstanding analysis!
Fabi isn't a world class speed player. He calculates everything so deep that he can't play intuitively. But oh boy, what remarkable classical games he plays!
that is just bs hikaru said because he is jealous and hate him for beating him over and over again as much as i like hikaru bullet and blitz were never a measurement for chess skills and never will be
@@napiernygma8075 When did Hikaru say this?
This is such a lazy comment. He’s literally a top-15 Blitz player.
@@morganthefork193 he said it more than once that his calculative skills are really powerful that's why he wins but he lacks intuition that's why he is bad on other time format
which is not completely wrong but definitely not right either ; a lot of GM`s don't really care about other time formats because it requires different skill set and new way of approaching and learning the game that they are not interested in
Excellent Commentary Antonio, I appreciate your page😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
Nice one Fabi boy! Take back the top2 spot or even top1. Lezgow...
So happy that David Howell is not slept on in this tournament. He was stuck as “Magnus sidekick #3” and many wrote him off as a random commentator, but Britain’s youngest GM deserves a lot more. He was also on fast track to win last year’s (2019) Grand Swiss, with his lost to Wang Hao sealing his chances in the final final round.
Fabi :- Welcome to the top 10 alireza or better top 5
Much love from kenya 🇰🇪 Antonio ...through you I've learnt alot about chess🤠
Video is good agad... don't care about shorter or longer
Thx 🙏🏻 Antonio. ♾ d hope to meet up with you someday! Great presentation.
The number of "if"s Agad uses for analysis clearly demonstrates the supercomputer like camputation power of top chess players as they have to analyze several moves into every possible line to pick the best one and they surely do it almost on every occasion.
Two of my favorite chess players going head to head is always a treat.
Lol I was curious why Fabi would get a guarantee entry to the next candidates
The breathtaking game yesterday!
Fabi is extremely powerful at classical chess , and also this game was well within his preparation.
Great thumbnail!
And an awesome battle it was!
Congrats on your new arrival. 👏👏👏👏👏👶🍼🚼
I love the thumbnail ;)
At 3:41, White can immediately win the Queen with Rb1! At 3:55 after Nb3, then Qa2! If Ra1 Qb2, and if Nc5, NxN is on White's queen. Seems like Black can play a better defense this way.
Rb1 trapping move was a side line.
After Rb1, you can give up the knight to level out the trade a bit. Nc5 attacks the white Queen. Either trade White Queen for Black Queen and Knight.. or after dxc5, the Black Queen can escape to e5, winning black's knight but saving the queen. Still better for white than castles, though.
Fabi to Alireza "Not so fast." Still ways to go to become a world champion! (Two of my most favorite players.)
Agad has brought something that we need to discuss scientifically .... that b4 move in every game
Glad to see your vids...
@@justina7966 Fir christ sake shut uppp
What a stunning game. One of the best of the year IMO
So I’m not the only person who captures a pawn quickly and then thinks “now what?”
Another great game from the FIDE Grand Swiss.
Love these Guy's! 👌🏾💯

@@martinpaddle Thank You
This game was amazing 👏
Dear Agadmator,
I have a suggestion I hope you agree with it. When you ask to pause the video for followers to find the best move if that’s the black move please reverse the board so we can see it from black’s point of view. It’s very hard to read the position from the white view. Hope you agree. Thanks
Quite a battle these two are having here - just to find out which one is as good as David Howell!
Everyone's a Gansta until they encounter in form Fabi ❤️
Alright Fabi... Thats what im talking about!,
Form is temporary class is permanent. Fabi. Probably in his worst form defeats alireza.we want the old beast back

Alireza's king and knight were highly resourceful and put up a great rearguard.
Great chess game between these two super GMs!!!
Very very nice game and thanks for thes wandrfl covreg
#suggestion Gelfand v Movsesian in round 9! Crazy crazy game with queen all over the board!
Many good things in chess begin with sacrifice of b4 pawn. #suggestion for quote
Fabi loves his Nd5 sacrifices
You could capture the f5 pawn with the knight as the rook can’t recapture because the second pawn will fall. Would have just been a forced rook endgame with white up a pawn.
amazing game by Fabi
b4 the new move! I’m a big fan of 1.b4
Dont be sorry for the long video. This was awesome, thank you. Also I speed it up (1.5 or 2x times depending on how tired I am).
This ending will be analyzed in depth. There were a lot of options not explored probably because of the time pressure.
Amazing game. Couldn't get enough. Don't worry about the video length :)
Good to see Fabi is at tp form.
Was a very exciting game.
17:45 Interesting move i saw was Rc5, sacrificing the bishop to play Re5+, Kd2, e7, Re8, f6, Nc6, Rxc6 or f7, etc. and white is completely winning. Let me know if anyone finds a move that counters this, because I thought it was pretty forced. Defends the f5 pawn, with the idea to just play Re5 and be protecting the bishop in case alireza tried something other than taking the bishop.
Rock c1 was such a machine move. What an amazing game from Fabiano, Firouzja defends really well but Fabiano was extremely inspired.
Alireza after such good tournament can even get knocked out wow.
Btw I expected fabi to beat alireza and it happened.
Fabi continually leaving the rook hanging was very Tal-esque.
Fabi's attack was on the next level
“...i’ll give you a couple of seconds. So, for those of you who made it, congratulations..” I love it :)
I would love to see a Botvinnik vs Caruana Game, but Botvinnik would have all the current chess knowledge beforehand?
