This channel motivated me to start chess years ago, and videos like this one motivated me to purchase the mammoth book of the world’s greatest chess games. If you don’t already have that book, I highly recommend it. There are so many cool games in it for you to cover on the channel

[@enry2337]

I love how Nezhmetdinov started as the obscure nemesis of Tal on ASMR Chess and now he's enjoying top billing

[@doormatcat]

Rashid Nhezmetdinov even though an International Master could have been stronger than Tal. The GM title was especially hard to get in the time h was an active player. He also was aggressive like Tal but more accurate with the moves. Interesting character

[@iwandoherty3419]

Was he his nemesis? Thought he was Tals coach

[@plovergrrl]

Hell yeah, I love these historic games! While I watch almost everything you put out, these analyses are always my favorite. Fantastic job as always. Also, I noticed a lot of folks wanting the Chessup board back and I just wanted to say I enjoy both. The Chessup board is hella slick, but there's something so cozy about the wooden board too. I'm glad you go back and forth!

[@richielavery2446]

Absolutely stunning game - your presentation is second to none. Thank you ♟️

[@Blartagnan]

I had a rough day, but this was just the comfort I needed.

[@tobysmith3473]

Haven't left a comment in a while because I have them turned off to avoid distraction on here, but turned them back on to show my appreciation for the amazing videos you're putting out

[@ASMRChess]

Thank you for taken the time to share a comment!

[@kevosch]

almost 200K subs. A quater million almost there bro, keep going!🔥🫡

[@etyrobot9436]

How delightful it is to behold an individual whose affections are equally bestowed upon the venerable game of chess and the soothing art of ASMR! Verily, an ASMR chess channel doth seem the epitome of perfection, a harmonious confluence of intellectual pursuit and tranquil auditory pleasure.

[@hiekkis8973]

Nice! Was just about to sleep and saw you posted😎👍 great timing

[@dasillosa]

Perfect timing, love it!

[@Rex18777]

I really enjoy your content👍👍 I totally like it when you're covering old games.

[@canetabisturi]

Thanks for the regular content, it always makes my day :)

[@australiumlover9822]

Thabks for the video as always!

[@HighIQuit]

i was trying to sleep but that game is so sick I just couldn't close my eyes to it 👀

[@goodyKoeln]

Perfect timing is perfect! 👌🏻

[@pedro_10_vieira]

Hi! I really love your videos! Can you do a relaxing analysis of Magnus's endgame immortal against Vallejo Pons in 2019? It's my favorite Magnus game.

[@Kamekification]

Beautiful game and video!

[@Azura12378]

26:08 isn't moving pawn in c2 to c4 a checkmate???

[@Hockleberry]

I thought I was going crazy, seeing the exact same thing. Anyone have an idea why this isn't/wasn't the case? Edit: Someone mentioned it below. En passant rule.

[@alexmandella7418]

I always wonder about these videos coming out during the middle of the day and then I remember you're probably like 7 hours ahead haha.

[@recfin23]

Top tier content as always

[@Maeyling]

Tolles Video

[@benjamincrew8383]

When I was a newbie in chess watching some of your videos you made me believe that en passant was actually forced

[@joaofernandes9286]

I'm going to buy a chess set that matches yours, to take into consideration, could you please tell me if your king is 3" or 3.75" tall? And the board lenght? Thank you.

[@ASMRChess]

I don’t know the board length but there is a link to the exact pieces I use in the video in the description.

[@squidink.6310]

Me: wants to sleep ChessASMR: posts new vid Me: YIPPEE🎉❤🥳🍾

[@ivan_tokio29]

26:02 Pawn to F4 is cheekmate right?or i'm missing something?

[@AngelGomez-ep2nh]

If you mean pawn to C5 it’s not cause en passant

[@coolfox376yt4]

Please bring back the online chess board that thing was sick

[@ASMRChess]

Will do

[@jordanrobinson5096]

Okay so @26:00 minutes why couldn't black just play pawn to c5? Wouldnt that have been checkmate? Edit: Nvm en passant

[@Hockleberry]

Ahhhh ok, knew I'd find an answer in the comments. Saw the same thing and was a bit baffled. Thanks! Edit: or I could have just watched the next two minutes of the video instead of being impatient...sigh.

[@VAgaLdaVakaART]

Рашид Нежметдинов помимо достижений в шахматах, великолепно играл и в шашки.

[@ASMRChess]

да. Я думаю, он был даже мастером по шашкам.

[@oumi_27]

Incredible game!

[@nopetellingnothing45]

marvelous delicious video

[@BzCoffin1663]

Is rook B6 also checkmate?

[@Ms.GoodKnightSleep]

wunderfuld video

[@PerishingTar]

Does anyone know who won?

[@phantomjoker5]

200k soon 🫡

[@lmgarekol]

Best intro in the game

[@Musicrafter12]

typo in the title - "Polugaesvky"

[@ASMRChess]

Thank you for pointing it out! Fixed

[@TanWeiyun]

Yippie new video dropped :>

[@kushmaheshwari9742]

Hi. You stopped recording on Chessup, why? it looked beautiful. Your videos are good nevertheless.

[@ASMRChess]

ChessUp will return in future videos!

[@Trve_Peep]

That's chess

[@jamespointon7511]

First of the rest

[@afonsomendes6907]

first

[@Uhnonimaus]

Babe time to go to sleep new ASMRChess video

[@victoriancuddler]

dang it I was about to make this joke

[@OvErHeAdKiCk1]

Gem of a game. Can’t believe I’ve not seen this before, this is a borderline immortal game

[@ASMRChess]

Agreed

[@ev4252]

These story driven games and you playing on the chessup are the best videos!

[@SergeantTopBins]

Beautiful. Upon my time of slumber, I shall return to this video

[@_Bench_]

This and the recent Tal video have been fantastic, if you get the chance, more historical games would be greatly appreciated. One thing to note though is that the backstory setup for the tal video is unmatched, if there is more history like that I’d love to hear it :)

[@Nicolas-hq1pu]

For the algorithm :) Honestly stunned by your quality, just the best out there. Im even thinking of buying a chessup Board, just because of you :)

[@slowbar1]

Perfect video, nothing beats an ASMR chess vid on an amazing attacking historical game.

[@afonsomendes6907]

Incredible game, that sac was a thing of beauty. Thank you for another incredibly entertaining, educational, and relaxing video

[@GirlGeekLovesStampin]

May I ask a question: at frame 11:05, just before you moved to f5, couldn't you have sacrificed the bishop on h6 in order to get the fork for the knight on f6? And 1 more: at the end Nb4# also? I love your videos! Thank you!

[@torstenclark363]

hey! i have a video idea. guess the player. you show us one game, along the way, you drop hints as to who it may be, and reveal in the end. the player we guess is playing with white pieces, and it’s a game they won. let me know how it sounds! thank you for the amazing content!

[@wolfyrine]

So glad you covered this one! I suggested you review this game a couple months back, on your "The Magician from Riga" video. If you're looking for more great attacking games to cover, have you ever seen So-Nakamura, from the 2015 Sinquefield Cup? It's a great Kings Indian game: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJLWpWupd653npY

[@Azura12378]

30:37 im screaming here like omg just fvcking take the bishop on b7 with knight forking the queen and king omg just fricking do it!!!!!😂

[@adumturtle1621]

Bro I don’t know if I’m just dumb or what but I have seen two force mates which I have looked through and checked and they look good but idk

[@chocolateminecraft8304]

I keep trying to make it through this video and I make it about 5 minutes longer each time before falling asleep.

[@adumturtle1621]

21:55 Am I tripping or isnt nf3+ rxf3 than pawn takes rook f3 than Qg2# checkmate

[@LOLBrawller]

Am i silly at 17:14 how come it isnt knight f3 followed by mate with the queen or trading knight for a rook and gaining a strong pass pawn?

[@glympse4513]

Beautiful game. Thanks for sharing

[@FlarpTart]

Back to back Nezhmetdinov 🔥

[@ManKay_RSA]

19:00 if I played black I'd play knight to f3

[@antonisashitteragain6993]

Yo ma! Asmr chess just upload a new video!

[@Jakethayne]

First to fall asleep

[@jakedunbar5094]

Nice thumbnail 👍

[@Ithurtsalot.]

For the algorithm!!!

[@Azura12378]

33:10 me: rook to b3

[@bothsidesofthehill69]

Hello Mr. Chess.

[@derdiktator8061]

24:26 why not pawn on g3 x rook

[@jdblack21]

Because of bxf4+, kd4...qf2+, kc3...qc5#

[@AwwabDarko360-il8cj]

Algorithm comment

[@ASMRChess]

Thank you for the support

[@Himb0IRL]

Hi there! I’ve been watching for a very long time, your old battle field video was my key to sleep, is there anywhere it’s still uploaded?

[@costanza2492]

Awesome video! The voice in this video is particularly great!

[@zacharysherry2910]

I wonder if he introduced himself like: "Hi! I'm Rashid Nezhmetdinov and you're not."

[@kevinsips3658]

That intro hits. I believe the proper emojis are:👌😩🤌

[@TotallyTaRz]

love your videos, been going through some serious sleeping problems lately so im hoping this can help a little.

[@faisalal-bandar6680]

Incredible game and wonderful video as always 👍

[@Clb9000]

Absolutely amazing game. Wanted to sleep, ended up watching

[@KobraaRl]

[@lillian2420]

[@erimyuksek238]

[@didi897]

[@ozgurgulle]

[@amongus69420yes]

Oh yeah chess asmr before bed lesgoo

[@seanleyburn3355]

Let's fuckin goooooooo🎉

[@littlemanlittleguy]

yippieeee!

[@victoriancuddler]

i don't even have the wherewithal to play chess anymore since I was 7 and learning so the simple things you say like "so and so did this to defend this square" blows my mind nowadays bc I always saw the pieces as more important than their positioning in chess, growing up I always thought positioning was of course important but not THE most important thing, so falling asleep to these videos are a both enlightening and relaxing experience

[@matthewscott6226]

2:04 “many many many” repeated the way you did gave me the first tingles I’ve had in years 🤌🏻🤌🏻
