[@chessbrilliance8783]

I remember Kasparov criticizing Dubovs plays some years ago during a world cup. He said something like :"I am not impressed by the games of Dubov". But today Dubov is the most exciting player out there!

[@TheTruthfulHeretic]

Hahahhahaha "come to daddy!" Got a chuckle out of me! Thank you as always GM King! A pleasure to watch your analysis!

[@TheMarkODonohue]

Considering he calculated that entine line (not to mention the sub-branches) when he played Be6+, I'm voting in favour of game of the year.

[@smftrsddvjiou6443]

Mark O'Donohue I really doubt it. There too many branches.

[@davidcopson5800]

@@smftrsddvjiou6443 Leaf it out!

[@davidcopson5800]

Game of next year as well.

[@sylent8428]

I dont know what was more enterprising: the novelty, the buildup, the actual combination, or that bb3 knockout blow.

[@ElKartoffelbreii]

8:21 I love how this hard hitting moves are supported by a hard hit on the keyboard

[@horvathliviu2101]

I like to see a game like this where all the pieces are alive, life and death is in the air. Fantastic! Amazing. Thank you for video & hermeneutics GM Daniel!

[@76HabeasCorpus]

I guess this game is almost Biblical!

[@horvathliviu2101]

@@76HabeasCorpus almost apocaliptic. :)

[@weakrecession]

Romantic! To say the least... This is why we all love this game!

[@CHESSTOUR]

i enjoyed your analysis and comments!.....cheers from Chile

[@allykid4720]

Dubov, Nepo, Esipenko and Oparin were all trained by GM Sergey Shipov, who was also the Garry Kasparov's second, so yes, let the legacy continue.

[@JorgeEFM]

Awesome masterpiece by Dubov.

[@davidcopson5800]

True.

[@MrWuster]

Beautiful! Bb3 was amazing!

[@mentoritori9943]

Dubov is creative style player

[@Bagual133]

_He has Bambi's face, but he is not Bambi,'_ said Svidler 🤭

[@paulgoogol2652]

Dubov begins to look like a modern Kasparov. This game indeed reminds of Kasparovs immortal with the enemy king being stuck on the queenside rim like that.

[@ElyaneTalk]

Dubov anticipated 13 moves before mate!!!! It's just insane!!!!

[@davidcopson5800]

It's inSvane!

[@isolatedpawn]

From kasparov to dubov..legacy continues

[@percybyssheshelly]

Bb3 was so sublime.

[@danielhines6728]

Excellent analysis as ever Danny.....

[@luqjas87]

That was absolutely brilliant play. Wonderful.

[@ramsuc]

Fine analysis GM!

[@AlonsoRules]

rook sacrifice and king walk - reminds me of that kasparov topalov game

[@FlaminalLow]

When chess turns to art 😱

[@bobby2ram]

Wonderful game thanks

[@rtt1961]

Amazing game. And BTW, Danny, you get the Quote of the Year for: Come to Daddy!

In Honor to the game Kasparov vs Topalov!

[@davidcopson5800]

You can't top that.

[@MrRobbyvent]

"and...boom" - delightfull!

[@NoraSH_]

veery nice game!

[@gennarotedesco7973]

Definitely game of the year.

[@RangeWilson]

This attack used to be my jam, until my opponents got good enough to play ...Nd7, ...Re8, and ... Nf8, which shuts the whole thing down. The Nf8 can then re-enter the game easily enough later. It all USED to be well-known, but these lines have fallen out of favor, so possibly Svane simply underestimated White's initiative.

[@anjithakrishnakumar1788]

great game

[@456death654]

Wow fuckin sick game and best of all, presented by the one and only Daniel king

[@CrimsonHelldrake]

*Dubov is such an adorable cutie*

[@patrickpatterson4884]

splendid

[@sam-lz6pi]

Amazing stuff! Dubov may be un enfant, but he is certainly not terrible

[@kenspencer9895]

Wow -- reminds me of Ding Liren's fantastic attacking game . . . nice!!

[@reddevilkev]

Dubov asked Svane before the game where he wanted to get mated: A2 he said, Dubov didn't dissapoint

[@mstalcup]

Would you please cite your source?

[@reddevilkev]

@@mstalcup lol it is a joke

[@mstalcup]

@@reddevilkev Scenarios like you described have actually happened. However, I would be surprised to see one GM make that audacious comment to another GM.

[@reddevilkev]

@@mstalcup yes indeed it happened to me once when i played for the title for my local chessclub. He asked me if i was good enough otherwise he would keep his coat on. I won :))

[@TBKGOLDY]

Well played by Dubov!

[@smftrsddvjiou6443]

I bet Black has options of counter play, but in this live situation is difficult to find an answer. One crucial point imho was to let the King run, instead sacrifice the queen for material. A king on the run in midgame, there is always an option for a check mate.

[@Electronite1978]

Holy smoke!

[@ricardoalves3475]

Hi, great videos! Big fan! I have a suggestion, if you could introduce the opening name and ECO on every video description it would be great! Thank you very much!

[@mcpartridgeboy]

Thanks for the upload ! great game, ! have you been to Batumi ? do you like it ? I think Tblisi is way nicer personally.

[@trumanshow1397]

great

[@niqwalshensemble9164]

Wouldn’t it be correct to say the king was checkmated on a3?

[@chessassassin2220]

I truly appreciate the link in the app that directed me to this analysis video. How many apps do this? Now I can follow you on FollowChess app. & KZbin.

[@robinesperoza]

I like black's play as well, just playing for the rook up and ending up bandaged.

[@rhalleballe]

No , 25. ... Bf5 does not hold, its immediately over after Qh8+ followed by Qxg8#.

[@CortezHoratio]

You might be right in the end, but Bf5 is check.

[@rhalleballe]

@@CortezHoratio Oups, yes, you are right. I overlooked that totally. Instead i wondered why Daniel didnt show the simple check on h8....

[@exponentmantissa5598]

Bf5 is no defense as white mates in 2 with Qh8+ Rg8 Qxg8 mate. The queen sac doesnt work either as white plays e4-e5 and f6 which is just crushing.The white pawn roller and the white squared pieces will cause black great pain

[@justinwr092]

Amazing game. Still not as good as Ding's game last year. I think that one will stay at the top of my list for awhile.

[@anvikshiki]

Wow. Better than watching fireworks.

[@sashi247]

Is Dubov the doppelganger of Leclerc?

[@davidcopson5800]

Well he doesn't look like Rene.

[@evilgiraffe]

Bb3. Very pretty move.

[@Breeelax]

Dubov, so hot right now!

[@The_Angry_BeEconomist]

theres been one or two other games Danny has covered this which I can't recall off the top of my head, but they also required very deep analysis, this game is exciting, but not as impressive as the other games

[@trevorochmonek9024]

Instead of Bd7 or Kxb3, what will happen After b5? Qxb5 Kxb3 Qd3+ Ka4 and there is no checkmate...

[@HiReeZin]

Qc1+ again, like in the game

[@pragyankumudmukhopadhyay5140]

At 9.38 move 25, how does Bf5 hold?Isn't Qh8 followed by QXg8 checkmate?

[@PowerPlayChess]

...Bf5 CHECK

Kasparov vs topalov was better

[@davidcopson5800]

@@rrrto2005 Agreed.

[@Straight_Talk]

Not to be negative, but SF shows that Dubov made a number of errors (Svane made even more errors). Far too many errors (on both sides) in my view to be game of the year.

[@ig2d]

England beat Armenia!

[@TheGPel]

Why enfant terrible?

[@HolyAvatar88]

2800 soon he’s always coming up with new opening ideas like the one in the Spanish game in Isle of man.

[@TheGPel]

@@HolyAvatar88 Enfant terrible means terrible child, someone who is rude or bad behaved. But Iknow that he is a geniues

[@HolyAvatar88]

2800 soon no it doesn’t, it means someone who makes a lot of noise, attracts attention, makes a ruckus. Ce n’est pas la simple traduction du français. And even in French it isn’t necessarily pejorative, it’s actually more often used to compliment someone who isn’t doing things the conventional way.

[@waylandsmith8666]

@@TheGPel More usual meaning when used in English is a young prodigy who challenges the orthodox views of his elders.

@@waylandsmith8666 Wow you are right. In dutch we use it as a bad kid from the group. Today I learned thank you!

Why is Dubov the enfant terrible? Context!

i think that's just a reference to the fact that he is mashing everyone up on the chess board
