12:40 Exactly. It's always the silent rook move, or the Knight's backwards move, or the move involving our good friend the Bishop, or the legendary b pawn move. Always. If you're looking for a move just think which of these you could play. It's sort of a hack because its always one of these moves. All the time.

[@guptayush179]

Of course I won't mention the specific moves, i.e. the initial and final position of pieces or the tactical role the 2 square b pawn push move played apart from being a generic move on the path to promotion and I won't mention or cover the games where the aforementioned set of vaguely described moves caused a loss or a poor position and I won't mention their genius at all if they appear as normal moves, not because it would be beyond my sheer capacity to account for all the instances within the framework I purport to have created using my deep instinctual unexplainable understanding of the game or beyond my hubris to disregard or diminish their genius for when they didn't work, but because doing so would make me do the work for my audience which I can't do because I only want the best from my audience.

Sorry about that

[@hueguy]

Interesting game. Slow and orthodox start for both players until White's deadly attack on f6. Great lesson as always!

[@blohot]

Antonio's pronounciation of names is always spot on. Mendonca is pronounced Mendonsa as used by Antonio. Well done.

[@spasshky]

Not quite. Agad pronounces it like Mendontsa because thats how you pronounce Mendoncas name in Croatian.

[@thretlite]

Murali defended long after it looked possible, that's what impressed me most from this game.

[@richardlindquist5936]

This is truly an era of Great chess! Thank you, Antonio, for showcasing these games we otherwise would not be able to see. Now leaving here to watch your vids on Capablanca v Alekhine 1927. Cheers!

[@IndigoBassNotes]

F6, E4 and yes even b4 are all equal in value. Values change as pieces move. Every move should speak to the demands of the plan or position , of course.

[@Kings_Quest]

Agad did that already

[@preparedsurvivalist2245]

I'm pretty sure white's king at the end there could've just headed off blacks passed pawn, which would've also shielded it from attacks by the rook. Then white would have his queen on a completely open board endlessly harassing the black king and forking the rook and remaining pawns with relative impunity.

At 11:03, what will happen if Black played Ke8?

[@Jasminehaydon]

Interesting. Antonio didn't cover this game well enough. It's quite possible that Murali was overwhelmed by the attack and missed an opportunity to escape with his king.

[@jugoslavilic9761]

Why Murali is pronounced like Murley?

[@amitraohuman]

That is how it is pronounced. Agadmator pronounced it correctly. 🙂

[@amitraohuman]

It is an Indian name. Murali means flute in Sanskrit. The name is short for the compound word MuraliKrishna, that is, Krishna, player of the flute.

Sorry, but it has never been "Botvinnik system". It had been played long before Botvinnik, by Capablanca, Alekhine and a lot of other players.

[@skerrkro2952]

The ruy lopez was played before ruy lopez himself popularized it. The reason for the name of an opening is not necessarily that a certain person was the first ever to play it.

[@rafsh77]

@@skerrkro2952 Exactly. But in this specific case, Botvinnik was widely known for not loving this orthodox kind of opening, He preferred Slav, Nimzo-Indian, etc.

[@UnknownUser-j3n]

There were a lot of questionable moves by Black that you just bypassed. Like why did he bring his king rook instead of his queen rook to d8. Etc etc etc.

[@michaelmassaro4375]

He doesn’t bypass moves there might be some moves that you wondered about it doesn’t mean Agadmator bypassed them if they were meaningful to the outcome of game I’m sure they would’ve been pointed out

[@carrotjuice4344]

Rad8 leaves the h pawn hanging, why would he do that?

[@UnknownUser-j3n]

Yeah but its so counter-intuitive, you are having a hard time defending your king on the king side and you are removing the rook from there. And onviously he could have first defended the h pawn before moving the rook. ​@@carrotjuice4344
