Brilliant!

[@danyilpoliakov8445]

Citation here should be "The hardest move to find is the move with the Knight back". I am pretty sure it was here once. Nodirbek has great potential - even though he didn't calculate all the lines probably - but intuitively getting that move... Amazing stuff even for standards of this channel

Yup, at 53 he's practically a fossil and ready to be processed into crude oil.* This year I'll be celebrating my 53rd birthday for the 19th time. ;) * And yes, I know oil comes from fossil plant material, not fossil animal material. But if you have to explain the joke, you lose the humor!

[@jonathancauley5345]

Brilliant moves are so awesome! :)

[@dlab1978]

I have one question. After the brilliant move, black can trade rooks with spontaneous check. White is forced to capture with the rook and given that the king is exposed to diagonal checks, black might exhange queens too. After that, black's king moves forward to prevent checkmate in the corner and also support the knight closing the open file. Still two pawns down, but it is playable. There is even a chance to not exhange queens and keep the pressure. That is why I think the best counter move was to go for a check and thus gaining the initiative.

[@vijayanand8077]

@6:08 when he asked to pause the video and find the white next best move... After all analysis, my point is after black played g5. Instead of Nxc4, white would have played Nd7 which is most powerful move i guess Pls check with engines

[@josepherhardt164]

2:00 Ng7. It's always pleasant to fianchetto a knight.* :) 6:29 Somebody pinch me. I found the key move. Does this make me an IM? (YES, I'M KIDDING!) * Edit: What's really rare is to fianchetto a rook. No, don't ask me about that game. It is something we do not speak of.

[@stoutlager6325]

I have a bad history with my knights winding up on fianchetto square. I probably lost every one of those games.

​@@MrJuitman source: It's quite obvious, because you run into the same problem. After dxc4 you get Re8 and you can resign, because you lose the knight with mate on the next move. Just think about the position for 5 seconds before spewing your bullshit into the internet.

But Janelle did cover the game where e drew against Nemo, so maybe Janelle will cover this game later on. --- 2016 WCC - This is relevant to the 2023 WCC. Please agad cover the other decisive game of the Sergey Karjakin vs Magnus Carlsen 2016 WCC #suggestion What happened is that Magnus lost to Sergey AS WHITE in Game 8 but then compensated for a white loss with A WHITE WIN in Game 10. This is what happened to Liren Ding & Nepo for Games 2 & 4 of 2023 WCC. Why doesn't a drawn match go to the player w/ more black wins (if any) s.t. Sergey Karjakin not Magnus Carlsen is 2016 WCC & Ian Nepomniachtchi not Liren Ding is 2023 WCC? This has happened BEFORE! 1 2022 Accentus Chess960 Vincent Keymer and Nodirbek Abdusattorov both finished with 5.0/7 and tied first. However, as Keymer won more games with Black, he won the tournament on tiebreak. 2 1980 - 1981 candidates tournament 'When the quarterfinal between Portisch and Spassky was tied after 14 games, Portisch was declared the winner because he had won more games with Black.' Actually maybe cover the only 2 decisive games here if not already? #suggestion 3 1983-1984 candidates tournament It wasn't repeated! The premise was the same! Hübner had more black wins than Smyslov before tiebreaks. After tiebreaks were tied, a ROULETTE determined Symslov won!! Actually maybe cover the only 2 decisive games here if not already? #suggestion --- P.S. Please help get Wesley So on Lex Fridman's podcast. See xcdhgq xcdhgq xcdhgq xcdhgq

3rd: Agad, what's your opinion of FIDE's use of the terms 'slow rapid' & 'fast rapid' please? This has implications for Wesley So. #suggestion Afaik: (0,10) is blitz. [10,60) is rapid. [60,120) is unrated classical. [120,infinity) is rated classical. So what's 'slow rapid'? Try to check out the maths here - they said both 32.5min & 60min are 'slow rapid'. Does this strike you as odd? I see only 2 possible definitions for slow & fast rapid. Def 1 - slow rapid means unrated classical [60,120) and fast rapid is rapid [10,60). --> this means Wesley So is not classical WFRCC but slow rapid WFRCC while Hikaru is fast rapid WFRCC. Def 2 - slow rapid & fast rapid cut up rapid [10,60) into resp [35,60) and [10,35). --> 2 issues here. 60min is not in either of these. Also, 32.5 is in [10,35). So neither 60 nor 32.5 are slow rapid. Lol. Wesley So is again classical WFRCC while Hikaru is (fast) rapid WFRCC. Def3 --> Since 15+2=17 is fast rapid, [10,X) is fast rapid & [X,120) is slow rapid for some 17 < X < 32.5. like say X is some arbitrary number like X=20 or X=30. Lol yeah right!! . . . . . . . . P.S.
