Checkmate for the Ages!

Agad: “I know you guys forgot about the bishop” Me: “DAMMIT”

Me too

[@davidanderson_surrey_bc]

The sad thing is, we all have vast knowledge to share at the bar and library, and yet we are always forgetting about the bishop.

[@michaelmassaro4375]

Actually it was clear to me the Bishop was there but as far as those checkmating ideas those were beyond my Grasp the Rook sacrifice at the end was Nuts

That is a rapid game. You know how I know it? There's a little R on top of the robot's head.

Wow that was exciting and I always enjoy your variations to explain the concepts! No one does this better than you!

Try Epic chess from James. He is far the best 😊

@@matheusvanderlinden9693 I will evaluate the difference. So far the KZbin only has 5K subscribers and started in 2021.

[@matheusvanderlinden9693]

@@waynebranchCEO Agad had to be "discovered" also, meaning he started small and then his channel got more and more viewers and subscribers and I was/am one of them. I enjoyed his channel a lot ! Then by chance I came across Epic chess and I found his analyses and commentary of chess games very clear, to the point, and explaining the depth of different lines thereby exhibiting the beauty of chess as it is. So I of course made the comparison myself and can recommend his channel to everybody but of course there is always an element of style and personal preference. So, let me know your findings. I would appreciate 👍

[@rajesshmech]

Yes.

[@maxkho00]

I'm sorry but pretty much everyone does it better than him. Agad rarely explores the key variations and glances over important nuances of many positions. I don't mean to hate on him, and he's surely done a great deal for popularising the game of chess, but let's be objective for a second: explanation skills and thoroughness of analysis aren't exactly his strong suits.

[@happyjay]

Last three moves are amazing. In Chess problems last two are called "self blocks" . The previous one is called "key" that lead to the self blocks

[@soundmindph2119]

Am I the only one who smiled when Agad said I can crush many opponents 😌

[@xethnyrrow]

I want to see Nodirbek and Arjun playing for the WCC in 10 years, would be quite the series to watch.

[@medelfilali10]

i like that small smile on his face when he gaves us some seconds to think about moves telling me i will never figure out which is the best move 😹😹😹

The Arabian mate would not be denied. Awesome game by Nordibek. Thanks for posting this "under the radar" gem.

[@weeooh1]

Amazing. I considered that Ra8 move but thought its no good, but it needed a GM to spot that its good.

[@sinbadddx]

I’ve been saving the half the Murphy saga for a good time and that is now, I can go back and finish it ❤️

[@S_m_o_l_a]

Maybe Nodirbek just enjoys torturing his opponents for longer

Thanks to Agadmator, I always remember about that bishop.

[@eagleeye4459]

Bb7 is clearly a blunder in time pressure for Black and the only move for him to counter is Rc5 vacating the a5 square for his king to escape mate

[@Arumenuyama]

Both moves were actually easy to find under “pause the video” conditions, but still spectacular!

[@texasjoe557]

So sharp! Love the play by white

Mr agadmator, u should check ur info before saying in the videos, u said that Arjun is on 16 rank, but he is at rank 18. I lost a bet because of u and I lost money. Otherwise keep making videos bro

Vasif Durarbeyli (grandmaster) is one of the weakest players in Azerbaijan. so it is normal for him to perform so poorly. Abdussattarov is one of the strongest players.

Agadmator you are scoring in terms of Analysis. You just need to be free of names of players and focus on chess games. I myself was a promising prospect in 1988, but then i choose family over chess. Yet my thirst for the way chess is evolving never ends 😇

At the moment Abdusattorov played R8, I would've pulled a " Bardeleben".
