GM Alireza Firouza vs GM Daniel Naroditsky!

[@vladn6031]

Chess has become a competition in memorizing.

[@nimatedAdventures]

it always has been...

[@romanday3429]

Very ignorant

[@Av-uv6xu]

not at all. Most games at the highest lvl are decided in the endgame, not even in the middle game, almost never in the opening while they memorize only the opening.

[@rxw5520]

Ok Bobby Fischer lololol that’s why blitz is popular. Watch Magnus play trash openings and stomp GMs

[@dave4468]

Thanks for posting this, is there more? What was their final score ?

[@mrn3101]

39- 18 in favor of Alireza

[@thetransferaccount4586]

nice one there

[@lepetitmondedefred4285]

At 8:02 why not rook takes a2?

[@etin97]

I thought this too! White can block 2nd rook's check with ba7 after kxa2

[@lepetitmondedefred4285]

​@@etin97ahh well played

[@RR-qf9re]

Because he can go bishop to a7 to block checkmate that’s why Danya took the bishop first otherwise he’d be down 3 pieces with no attack

3:11 knight b8
