So here's a funny story (at least to me): In Greece, 11 years ago, when I was 14, I had played against a boy of the same age as me. I remember he was a cool kid and a very good player (so much so that after the match and the day after, even if he tried to be friendly with me, I was just stressed just because of the sheer differerence in power). In any case, when you're a young kid and you play at tournaments, names don't really stick with you that much till you get used to seeing someone. I never saw that kid again since he wasn't a fellow greek, therefore the chances of seeing a foreigner back then without the populartization of chess through internet was inexistent. Anyway, I never got to remember that boy's name but I've been remembering his face all this time (at least how it was at the age of 14). Fast forward to present: Someday, as I was watching agadmator's videos, my eyes started to examine a certain thumbnail. The face seemed familiar. It was particular in the sense that it sticks with you. His name didn't ring any bell nor did his ethnicity. After all, I never was an avid chess player to say that I was really keeping up with chess news, even more so since I haven't played any official matches in ages. Nonetheless, I was certain about that face. As it turned out, 14 years later, I relearned that boy's name: Daniil Dubov ratings.fide.com/calculations.phtml?id_number=24126055&period=2010-09-01&rating=0

Nice story

[@Kaniknietzeggen]

Very nice story. I could almost imagined happened to me. Very will written. Thanks for sharing. I would have feeled honor to play such a legend in his young ages.

[@byronarnaoutoglou8425]

@@Kaniknietzeggen it was quite a surreal experience seeing the aftermath. I mean, yes, that face did seem familiar but to actually believe that I had played against him so many years ago, to see him where he stands now and to make that connection by literally witnessing the transfomation of a child's face to that of a young man, I was in total disbelief. Especially that inkling of a memory which, while you can't originally explain it, you know that something exists and tries to communicate to you messages you can't comprehend yet.

[@Kaniknietzeggen]

There are 3 super GM’s, I enjoy the Bantzer Blitz series a lot. 1. Magnus Carlsen for his calmness, instructive and very solid calculations. 2. Alireza Firouzja, for his crazy creative abilities and super blitz momentz, calculations at his age and his funny accent. 3. Daniil Dubov, he is a genuily very cool guy, very instructive. Sometimes takes the risky decisions and creates beautiful mates like all Russians. I feel like I’ve learned a lot from these 3 and I never miss his bantzer videos.

[@alenciaga21]

I love how Dubov is like number 1 fan of Magnus. He is such a respectful and chill guy

[@dubovsimp]

The way his rating went from 3000 to 4500 will never escape my memories 😂 we had fun trolling him for a while

[@uncleowl8187]

Daniel is so wonderful playing like this...please more of him in banter blitz or any other formats , I just love the way he describes things :)

[@t567698]

He is the most entertaining banter blitz player, without a doubt. E.g. #1:50:05

Starts at 6:13

[@ogandreyka]

Thanks

[@dubovsimp]

You can tell dubov admires magnus a lot. It's honestly so cute 🤧 I wish i could see more clips of their interactions or maybe a collaboration someday

[@nazim9705]

Timestamp?

[@dubovsimp]

@@nazim9705 he mentioned him quite a lot in this live so it's sort of everywhere lol

[@rokanza2293]

Dubov was his second for the 2018 World Championship match aka they already work(ed) together....

[@RobPalmer454]

you're so annoying

[@oldschool90]

Clips? Lol. Do you like watching chess just like you watching kpop? I often see the kpop fans keep saying something about interactions and collaborations but in chess for what? But anyway, Dubov is one of the Calrsen's team for the previous World Championship when Magnus won as the world champions.

[@sergioa3631]

Daniil such great spirit and mind

[@dubovsimp]

a star since 1996 ⭐🌟🌠

[@self-righteousideologue9398]

This is why Dubov is best. Name one other player who reached 4500 rating. Nobody. Only DD

[@davidcopson5800]

@Phoebe Buffay Captain Kirk no doubt.

[@dumbeldore9067]

Magnus had 5000 in a bb

Finding That checkmate with knight against mbachez in less than second, is like alfa zero on steroids.

I think GM Dubov is now my number 1 BB'er, since GM Svidler has disappeared from the format...

[@DanielMartinez-lz2yb]

"Win like an idiot" 😀

[@neville-mladen9393]

I just love young Daniel Dubov, what a great chess player

[@ritwiknandakumar]

4500 rating. Alpha AI is going to lose 100-0 now against Dubov.

[@fyodordostoyevsky5496]

True, unless Dubov believes it is Morozevich instead of Alpha AI. Then it will be levelled :)

[@dubovsimp]
