Carlsen is still the fastest human on earth. But even he loses to MVL occasionally (though MVL is usually in time trouble).

No he doesnt. You would need to go deeper like other channels do to know what is really happening.

[@lp1926.guitars]

OMG another video! How do you do this? The frequency goes up and the quality of the analysis is as amazing as always. Incredible work! So happy I found your channel.

[@omegaman116]

Aga's videos without Medo are not the same. 😂 Thank you for fixing that.

Your frequency of quality videos is unreachable by my small 24-hour day. 3 videos in a day😮 I wouldn't be surprised if the 4th one is already coming out

[@swe9139]

You are an excellent creator of videos

[@shaloamnenja12yearsago29]

I played the game on a board while watching and got the Bg7 move. Seriously, you’re the only reason I keep on practicing chess. Also there’s a longer variation that wins the knight and pawn but forces the queen into h6.

[@kokibon623]

Really enjoyed this video.And that smile at the end for a perfect coverage of the video. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Serbia.

[@mridgaf3233]

Qa3 made me think of the same move game 6 in the Fischer-Spassky 1972 WC match where the queen was oddly very nicely placed. I wonder if Magnus thought of that game as well lol

[@12jswilson]

I know no one cares, but I played brilliant blitz game tonight that was Tal-esque in style. I followed the Tal playbook of 1) sac a piece 2) sac another piece 3) sac an exchange 4) ??? 5) (smothered) checkmate

[@rodrigogz9844]

Agadmator, please do a top 10 of your personal favourite chess games, I think a lot of people would really appreciate it

[@doodoopoo]

7:18 Wouldn't bxe4 be better? Couldn't he keep the quen there, protecting the b2 pawn? Sorry if it's a stupid question

[@adamvarsanyi7228]

you mean e4? and maybe yes...

[@dakotayupyupyup8377]

Actually no, if Bishop takes on e4, then you get Nf2, attacking the rook, if QxNf2 then Bc5! Gives black the advantage Let’s say you didn’t take the Knight with the queen, there’s not a much better move as it attacks the bishop and the rook, so you’d either move the rook or threaten the queen Moving the rook safely anywhere along the 1 file still invites Bc5!, and moving it to d2 invites you to nicely take the bishop while D3 is just a mistake. So, your other option is to threaten the queen with h4, and this has really just destroyed the advantage you had as you’re about to either ruin your position or trade queens into what seems to be a drawn game. Hope this was insightful!!

[@dakotayupyupyup8377]

If my above post was tl;dr; capturing with the queen gets the queen off the same diagonal as the king, which can be threatened by Bc5, a defended attack

[@MegaGandalf12]

7:40 : Why not Qf3 there? There's no way to defend the f7 pawn and it is pinned. Give up the rook and go in for a mating attack.

[@QuasarSevilla]

I think Qe7 by black would defend Qf3. If bishop captures u can capture with your queen and the rook still under attack

[@MegaGandalf12]

@@dakotayupyupyup8377 White Queen can reach f3. Its just the diagonal white square behind it, right? The intersection of the the upward right white squares diagonal from the rook and the downward left white squares diagonal from the bishop.

[@MegaGandalf12]

@@QuasarSevilla Hmm... yeah you're right. But, you could attack the black knight next move by Rb1, and when it moves capture the pawn on b7 with the rook. That attacks the black queen and still threatens mate. So, I don't think you can defend.
