ChessQueen's Immortal Queen

[@ramosjanoah6686]

The most amazing moment of watching Agad's video is when you find a move in a pause video moments without actually pausing it lol

[@arkajyotichakraborty8968]

very true.

[@Gacug1]

I never pause the video just think for a couple of seconds what I would do instinctively without calculating too much and I actually manage to find/guess the move quite a lot. Sometimes they're pretty obvious too and sometimes I'm completely oblivious how to win the position.

[@davidwagner6116]

It takes a couple seconds to find the move. It takes a couple minutes to find the reasons why it works.

[@Isthatthegrimreaper170]

Finding the move feels great But finding the move and being able to explain it correctly? Catharsis, pure catharsis

[@Gacug1]

@@davidwagner6116 just finished the video and this case was pretty simple so I knew what to play and why without pausing

[@AcapellaUnfiltered]

Props to Irina for allowing mate to occur on the board. That really shows her love for the game as when your opponent plays such a beautiful game, you can't help but marvel at it's beauty, even at the cost of getting Krushed.

[@tunahankaratay1523]

Maybe it's because she didn't want this to be a miniature (games that are won in 25 or less moves are considered miniatures, this is 26)

[@AcapellaUnfiltered]

@@tunahankaratay1523 Nowadays even 30 move games are also considered miniatures, especially in the Sicilian where certain lines' theory can stretch up to 30 moves.

THANK YOU ANTONIO for your channel! Entertaining and helpful- my game is improving, and a big part of that is your analysis and style.

[@soumyajitroy5239]

Brilliant game by Chessqueen in Olympiad

[@mcblahflooper94]

Incredible opening attack that she carried and improved throughout, and an equally stunning endgame! Brutal queen moves

#suggestion Daniil Dubov vs. Jan Subelj, European Club Cup 2021. Typically gorgeous attacking play from Dubov leading to absolute destruction!

[@laertides7]

Had to watch this one twice in a row. Just fantastic.

[@Mantose262]

Great video as always. Was interesting to see some different analysis than what she provided in her video. I am glad you plugged her video as well. Highly suggest watching it. She gives some more insight into the opening and her familiarity with it. And of course, she shares some of her thought process in some positions. There was also another move Irina could have played at the end Qg7 but the same response would have happened, Qe5.

[@MarkEWallace]

Agadmator: “So, how do you continue the attack? Of course, there is but one move.” Me: “B4!!! B4!!!” Agadmator : “Knight to E4” Me:

looking forward to seeing how she does in the candidates next year, I'll be cheering for her!

[@amoldivo]

I saw the whole line played here where white kept "offering the queen which cannot be accepted" :^) It's really a beautiful position where this line occured!! To me it's not about the line itself that is hard to achieve, but to arrive to the position where everything was just in order to allow the whole line to be played!! Chess is beautiful indeed! ❤😊🥰

[@gonzachambi3937]

If I see a video of a game of Miss Kosteniuk...well I'll be there for sure. So you have my like Antonio.

[@philipstrange60]

The games are amazing and Agad's presentation is achieving legendary status - if the chess doesn't get you hooked the jokes will!

[@davea1771]

Now we can see perhaps why the classical Sicilian defense is only 3rd most popular. Brilliant idea to make a mess of black's pawn structure on both sides of the board. As Agad showed, things went down hill quickly from that point. Amazing game, but could have used a slow motion moment in there to make white's sacrificial offerings shine.

i feel like a6 (@1:50) was the beginning of the end for black. that move was too passive, and it boxed in her bishop for the entire game. but, im a 1600 pleb, so what do i know?

In the past week or so we have seen two of the best games this year, between this game and Carlsens legendary bishop

[@thecolorcyan9569]

At 6:02 black could play queen e5 to prevent the knight from moving becuase the white queen would be free and black would also pick up the pawn

That was beautiful.

I knew black was lost when her pawn structures were destroyed on both sides with no safe castling option (@ 2:37 )

Me, a sub-1000: "Maybe Qe5+? No wait, the square is defended... that's not going to be it..." Agad: "Congrats on finding Qe5+" Me: "Yes, yes, I saw it from a mile away, obviously a capture is a mate in 1, child's play"

[@subhodeeeep]

So even Queens don't like Queens

[@xchadburnx]

Can anyone explain to me, one variation not covered in the position where white forks the queen and bishop with Knight E4 at 5:45, why can’t black play queen E7 declining the pawn and defending the bishop? Seemed like a logical move to me, and black can push pawn f6 if white doubles up on the H file with a move like Qh5 to threaten mate and defend the h7 pawn… just a line I noticed and I’m not sure why it wouldn’t work

we need more womens games! glad the nina controversy has spurred us to these.

[@ChessJourneyman]

We need unified titles, treating women as equal in a mind sport and holding them up to the same standards - so until they break 2700, it makes less sense to showcase sloppy games when we can watch top super GM games.

[@blueberryoatmeal4009]

I really enjoyed Agad's videos on Nona's games! Epecially the one with Tal.

@10:10, I think Black Rook captured Knight may have been better than moving the Black Queen.

[@ThePinoyMamba]

Beautiful game

[@charlesvanderhoog7056]

The fundamental error of black is not to activate the rook and Bishop. This hands white two pieces. Fisher won many a game because of this.
