It's always a treat when Aronian is in great form.

[@jx14aby]

He cleaned Nodirbek like he was a fish.

[@brunomeneghessi8835]

Antonio has such an artistic subtlety in his commentaries. It is easy to fall in love for this art when you’re seasoning it with your amazing character and passion!

[@thethinker3888]

I love it when SuperGMs play simple-to-understand straightforward positional chess that even normies like me can understand.

[@jx14aby]

And you think, "That's how it's done."

[@ericvandenhoogenband]

"No one is strong enough to play f6" - lesson learned! Great stuff Agad, love your channel!!

[@UglyApprentice]

I hate the fact that Nodirbek is younger than me. I’m in college doing STEM but he’s still the kind of kid that my Asian parent would compare me to.

Do be sad. You might be better than him for doing linear algebra.

[@joshuamohebban1570]

[@Toopa88]

As long as you're proud of yourself you shouldn't be worried what your parents think about you.

[@larochejaquelein3680]

I can solve differential equations and I can solve thermodynamic problems, all of which Nodirbek has no knowledge of. You can probably also do these so keep your head up

[@asifswapnil6574]

Such beautiful commentary by Antonio ❤

[@doncorleone8263]

He was really asking for it and Levon really gave it him😊. I mean wow

[@tomhejda6450]

[@BlackSpock135]

Great to see Levon on the winning side, it seems as if he has been in a long losing slump. I hope to see him win some more games

[@TheRawcotic]

When will the Steinitz saga be released?

[@meenanshgupta1317]

Levon is truly a beast

[@matterickson503]

He was a beast but not so much anymore considering he was 2830 at one point and now almost 100 points lower and his rating is continuing to drop. Not long before he finds himself out of the 2700 club.

[@scurtin99]

Hello....thanks for a great chess channel. The 1951 match between Bronstein and Botvinnik was one of the great matches...what about a series on this to get us in the mood for the April World Championship....thanks again...

[@ShawnTheRazor]

Nodirbek plays really exciting chess. Love watching his games.

[@donv6646]

I feel like we don't get very many games that levon wins, enjoyed this one!

[@cloudlessbluesky1748]

The "pause the video moment" reminds me that unlike these grandmasters I'm a butcher, not an artist.

[@youarecorrectiamwrongbecau1338]

I'm so proud of myself on spotting Rd2. Very very proud. After so long found the correct idea. Also considered Rd1 but it wastes one move if Bh3 hence chose Rd2!

[@jamesharrison142]

I love watching Levon's games. Love it!

[@sumanghosh9709]

Where is Medo?

[@korpilombolo0068]

Hans is the only player who can break principles while playing Aronian and still win.

[@ToniDerAlbaner]

Please cover in Philippine women's chess - WGM Janelle Frayna, the female Wesley So, who upset Georgian GM (really GM not just WGM) Bela Khotenashvili at the 2022 world blitz? #suggestion There's a 12-move UNDERPROMOTION puzzle there. [Variant "From Position"] [FEN "6k1/6b1/1p1P3p/6pP/3pPpP1/p2NqP2/6K1/5Q2"] 1. Qd1 a2 2. Qb3+ Kf8 3. d7 Qe2+ 4. Nf2 Ke7 5. Qd5 Kd8 6. Qf7 Bf6 7. Qe8+ Kc7 8. Qc8+ Kd6 9. e5+ Qxe5 10. d8=R+ Bxd8 11. Qxd8+ Kc6 12. Qa8+ Kd7 For some reason none of the Philippine channels even cover this game. LOL. But Janelle did cover the game where e drew against Nemo, so maybe Janelle will cover this game later on.

[@stockfish4429]

Up

[@HVH_49]

It's really amazing that these super GM's can capitalize a weak move like f6. The snowball effect is real after that move. For a simpleton like me, I wouldn't even know why White was winning after f6 was played.

[@jx14aby]

"Old age and treachery will always prevail over youth and skill.." Somebody said that. I think it was me.

[@timperalta9430]

Levon was, at one point, the strongest chess player. He ran over everyone in 2017.

[@rafaelkovac4211]

#suggestion please do the game with nodirbek as black and the benko gambit

[@MarkWiseTechno]

3:04 Ben Finegold approved!!

[@Jaylooker]

The Sicilian Dragon is risky to play since there usually is only a very narrow path for black that is playable against critical lines such as with 9. g4.

[@Jayako12]

#suggestion Bellón-Georgiev, Terrassa 1990. Beautiful queen sacrifice.

[@meyestro]

Is the word “check” used universally or do some people of the same country use a different word?

[@ColdCorner49]

Always fantastic

[@mugbhary]

That f6 move was just an inaccuracy but Aronian made it feel like a blunder

[@shawncarter7188]

This game felt Morphy-esque !

[@mbire831]

Finegold's Theorem - Never play f6.

[@stoutlager6325]

Man. Playing regular dragon against a GM as strong Levon, in a classical game no less, is madness. I guess Nodirbek was hoping to surprise him?

[@joelvaz7155]

Nodirbek thinking to himself after listening to Agad at 3:04, "If only now i could go back in time n undo my mistake"

[@Najdorf_]

Sorry about that - Nodirbek, probably

[@norberttargosz4528]

Nordibek definitely isnt Crouching Tigran, Hidden Dragon ;)

[@oscarfernandez7386]

Oh wow. The move that he played is a faster way to win. I did not see that one. I saw bishop b3 takes on e6. To remove the defender of f 6 because he will force a trade on e6. Therefore that’s how the rook will Exeter that open file. But the way Levon played is a bit much quicker to win.
