[@sigma8519]

Agadmator's daily posts are truly like heaven. Thank you very much man.

[@Gelfling66]

Something that I would love to see is if you could add the material advantage on the board. Normally it's pretty easy to follow along, but sometimes a side can be up a pawn for a long period, then the other side goes up a pawn, but you could forget about the first pawn, or if people trade a rook and bishop for a queen and a pawn or a rook for two pieces, etc, it get's confusing and newer people like myself can get lost easily

[@josephasghar]

I couldn’t even follow the winning moves AFTER they were explained.

[@asusgaming4386]

Alireza is an attacking genius!!!

[@mfulbright777]

At 6:58: after Bg5, why wouldn't black play ...f6? After that white would probably capture with the bishop, Bxf6 (re-pinning the g7 pawn), but then black can capture with the rook: ...Rxf6, exf6 Qxf6. Then probably Rxe6 and then maybe...Qd8? And things are certainly a little dicey for black, and black had to give back some material, but it looks like black may be able to hold.

#Suggestion There is a game, Supi - Noritsyn, 2020 - Online Olympiads (0-1 due to a mouse slip), that has so many similarities with that one. Unfortunately, the pawn is on g4 (although it gives White more space on the Kingside, the Queen can't go to g4 nor h5, where is needed the most, how ironic!). www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=2009173 Also, Rxb7 theme is really becoming a theme, huh? I think the first one is Kasparov-Shirov, 1994. www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1070699

[@shubhamwavre1308]

At 9:52 why not Nh6 If Nh6 Kf8 then Kxf7 will pick up an exchange and if Gxh6 then bxh6 then Qg4 and dangerous attack was possible please anyone reply

[@akshatpandey8571]

Did firouzja played this in the bar and the library?

[@g1lmk]

2:20 doesn't ...Nd5 solve all problems?

[@cold7742]

You said in the hypothetical at 10:54 that black was winning and white would be in a bad spot, if black queen moved from d8 to d5, white moves e6 pawn to f7 causing check, then black f8 rook takes whites f7 pawn, but wouldnt the e1 rook be able to go to e8 and checkmate black? (due to white knight at f5 holding g7, and e8 rook holding the king) I'd like to know if that's wrong somehow.

2:20 the variation to analyze is Nd5, not sure why that wasnt covered in favor of idk...... PAWN TAKES E5 hanging the exchange with no complications

[@RaidingPig]

I found Rxb7 only because I thought "hey, I have a good light-squared bishop there, just get rid of his light-squared bishop and then mine will reign supreme" Also, when he talked about the move that we wouldn't ever be able to find, first thing that came to my mind was b4 but then I said to myself "nah that's ridiculous lmfao"....

#suggestions, Lasker versus Bauer(1889), amazing game and it seems you have not covered it yet!

[@johndowry6867]

Antonio, it would be really helpful if you could be a little bit more exhaustive with your analyses. Some of us sub-1500s can't really see why some of the obvious moves don't work... e.g. after Bg5, why doesn't f6 work? if Nxe6 then fxg5. Not knowing these lines you might consider 'obvious' really makes it harder for us to truly appreciate the beauty of the game because we don't see the full picture of why a particular line is crushing...

[@arnaut108]
