00:00 Hello Everyone and Enjoy!
The 2023 Tata Steel Challengers is taking place from 14-29 January in Wijk aan Zee, the Netherlands. The 14-player single round-robin offers the winner an automatic place in the 2024 Tata Steel Masters.
The time control is 100 minutes for 40 moves, followed by 50 minutes for 20 moves, then 15 minutes for the rest of the game, with a 30-second increment per move from move 1. A tie for first place will be decided by two blitz (3+2) games. If still tied, the players keep playing single "sudden death" games where White gets 2.5 minutes and Black 3 minutes until one side wins. Official website: www.tatasteelchess.com

being featured on Agadmators Channel is probably a badge of Honor for many Chess Grandmasters

[@gurjassinghbatra5758]

Nah... honestly,I don't think they care

[@ogbmt]

@@gurjassinghbatra5758 It would depend on the player, I'm sure many of them deliberately play in an attacking style so they might well enjoy their games being appreciated this way.

[@wanderhillen2435]

Max even commented on his previous appearance on this channel that it was a very special day for him, because (if I remember correctly) he got his 3rd GM norm on the same day he was featured on Agads channel.

[@Emrah2908]

I respect agadmator but what you say is a bit too dramatic :)

[@MrRedstonefreedom]

I laughed when Max threw in that little pointless starter to the windmill; who hasn't enjoyed that when you've found yourself a windmill? The only situation in the entire game in which you can control the pace or throw-in completely inconsequential moves.

[@Kavan5797]

I was watching this game live and Peter Svidler said that Jergus allowed the beautiful checkmate to happen to appreciate Max's outstanding attack!!! I love when this kinda sportsmanship happens!!

[@disco_sugar]

that's cool

[@jacobpeters5458]

and here I was, thinking Jergus was low-class like me, playing some move to hope the opponent screws up his checkmate

[@talhakarsloglu4278]

Max starts the year with a Queen Sacrifice again. One of the most entertaining players for sure.

[@disco_sugar]

The queen sac in this game, as well as the harmony of the bishop pieces standing together (although on the other side of the board) and the aesthetically-pleasing final position, reminds me of a memorable classic. Anderssen's Evergreen Game. Can see why you selected this as the first game of the Tata! Super looking forward to this event and the coverage on the Agad & Friends Channel. 💯

[@StevenStJohn-kj9eb]

The windmill is chess's version of torture.

[@Beerfish777]

The lesson I learned, always troll your opponent by needlessly sacrificing a rook at the end.

[@johnwamsley1896]

I say get the game over before I have a chance to screw up.

[@ciarankelly3726]

i always sacrifice my rook for no reason B)

[@jonathancauley5345]

I sacrificed my queen at the end one time and it felt super good!!

[@orhunkercek7420]

I believe it is the 3rd time I saw Max's game on this channel. It is crazy that he got his Grandmaster Title only in 2021. His creativity is quite outstanding and I hope we can see him in the top 20 in the next years

[@thethinker3888]

Why is it that when it comes to Queen sacrifices, it’s ALWAYS this guy? lol

[@yrrag]

he just really hates the queen haha

[@ItachiUchiha-ns1il]

Max Warmerdam really likes sacrificing his Queen in January of odd years.

Not to mention there's a commit on the way.

"I guess he just gets very inspired by January, or something?" damn bro, you crack me up!

We always love some windmill action. Very nice game.

[@inemanja]

I played a chess game on New Year's eve. I blundered my Queen at 00:00 and for a brief moment, that was THE BEST queen sacrifice in 2023!

[@finsfinst4274]

Only if you're in that one particular time zone which gets to 0:00 before any other time zone does, inemanja. Chances (23/24) are, you ain't - so chances are, it wasn't. Stupid round Earth, right? :D

[@AutPen38]

I was quite pleased with myself when I spotted the windmill. They never came up in my own games though, which made me think they only arise as a result of blunders by newbies, or in lessons for beginners, so it's quite a thrill to see one in a game between GMs.

[@LenkaBac]

Jergus comes from the same town as me. I once won over him. It was a great achievement. Well, he was 4 years old at a time but still 😂👍

Really classy to allow the full combination to play out and also allow mate, since he could easily have resigned after Re7.

Good choice to cover this game. 2 bishops and 2 rooks attacking against the queen defender, and the extra knight delivers check mate. Must be very satisfying to win like this.
