Finally a man who doesn't quake in his boots when confronted with Dina's personality.

[@user-dm8nm6hu6c]

her personality? You mean her insecurity

[@Dadaadad268]

I quake in my pants

[@KrisMeister]

Its because he's Ben Finegold and you're not.

[@FrankBakulov]

I lose to my students all the time, I'm a great teacher, - another immortal from Ben

[@ruthxk7844]

😃😃😃

[@Daniel-qx6bg]

That's the most double-edged chess comment I've ever heard. Brilliant!

[@PauIdenino]

Must make a teacher proud to lose to their student

[@gernblenstein1541]

“I was bothering people before you were born!” Put the fine in Finestein!

[@raylopez99]

But Dina tried to distract him by talking USCF controversy...Ben declined the gambit!

[@AbhijitShrikhande]

That was the best line Ben said.🙃🙃

[@Rastafaustian]

"I'm the oldest." "Who's move is it?" Ben is hilarious 🤣

[@oliverribeiro3246]

I love how Ben pretends to acts slow and unable to multitask with Dina's trashtalk, then completely demolishes her once he got bored pretending

[@BlackIronPrison]

Ive never seen anyone out trashtalk dina before, it kind of scares me

[@ItIsYouAreNotYour]

The truth hurts.

[@liontx]

Ben was trash talking before she was born.

[@rustedcorpse]

He's Ben Finegold, and you're not.

[@MC-ep8cu]

Ben isn't trash talking he just has autism and his same 50 jokes is just a form of stimming

[@-jmac995]

She’s annoying anyways

[@Simon-xi8tb]

Ben needs longer games to unleash deadly trash talk.

[@jeffreywilliams3421]

[@steelsteez6118]

yea he does 😂

[@cesarvb1452]

look at his match with ginger gm xD

[@umurify]

he was getting warmed but then the sidekicks killed his vibe

[@andrew_owens7680]

Finegold's trash talk is a registered deadly weapon.

[@shawnnathan7658]

GM Finegold = Chess Integrity. The real deal!!!

[@kingconcerto5860]

He's the biggest virtue signaler in chess. It's not "integrity", it's embarrassing.

[@OIP_1]

'can you stop checking me?' 'i will, i'll checkmate you next move' brutal

[@DrugzMunny]

The confidence and effortlessness with which Ben rolls over other masters while making good jokes... this guy's my role model. Never resign, always retreat, c4 is explosive, etc. But mostly et cetera.

[@user-dx9rz7om8b]

you forgot never play f3, never play f6, always play bishop f1, always play king b1, (some move) confusing the audience

[@josueramirez7247]

RAAAWR! Terrible!

[@_nemo171]

I'm confused. You're confused.

[@bw5970]

'Knife f5' I like the kid lectures the best. 'You in the back with some crazy comment.' There is a kid obsessed with Hikaru who says his name like hickory. Hick-uh-roo. So cute.

[@radscorpion8]

he fearlessly insults his audience too! "you at home with the bad answer" ahaha

[@tommonk7651]

I played Ben in Atlanta once. He cooked me in about 20 moves. He said that he was surprised I lasted so long. LOL

[@12jswilson]

I played 2 games in Atlanta against his son, Spencer. The first game I lost in an endgame where he found a sacrifice into a knight fork. The second game, I just lost all of my pieces in about 15 moves

[@tommonk7651]

Did he also ask "Why am I not winning yet?" after 5 moves? :DD

Yes, especially his singing 😂🙀👍🚀

[@ezioauditoredafirenze25]

The best chess game ever 🤍🤍🤍🤍

[@whukriede]

How could we not. This one was superb.

[@accesspanels]

Fun banter from the King and Queen of trash talk

[@aarons3014]

For those interested in the protest: Randy Bauer, president of the USCF, belittled female chess players who reported sexual assault, and doubled down when asked to reconsider. So Ben quit the USCF. A heavy topic for a fun video, so I can see why he didn't elaborate on camera.

[@schizophrenicenthusiast]

And what about those not interested in the protest, why do you have to single them out? Edit: Good lord; It was an intentionally dense comment for comedic purpose, not an actual question. Why should we be taking ourselves so seriously in the comment section of a KZbin video?

[@kylezo]

[@Sjorezz]

She started really well. It's funny that Ben was extremely concentrated on the game at frist. He could only unleash his trash talk when his position got better...

[@soakedbearrd]

Definitely, he was concentrating. But she made the mistake of trash talking, because when she was nice she was winning lol, the second she started trash talking she lit Ben’s secret weapon, his dry wit. From that point on she was toast 😂

[@mustaphadiomande5871]

He wasn't concentrating he was making a joke. That why he said "what?" When she said he was going to be focused

[@12jswilson]

I can't believe the most beautiful chess player in the world played against Dina!

[@zenyatta5064]

ben is a terrifying opponent

[@joseguerrero1090]

A true gentleman waits until hes in a better position before he trash talks.

[@anderslinden4701]

Then it would not be trash in the talk?

[@SebastianBohn]

That was the most funny lesson in trash talking of recent. Ben is hilariously good. Love his dry humour.

[@christopherherrmann921]

i could watch these two playing against each other all day 😊

[@drakestorm4691]

He is playing very well and consistent, like old good wine

[@bluemystic7501]

As a 600, I can confirm that this was high level chess.

[@daze4135]

I got into chess because of Mr. Finegold, it's nice to see him have a redemption arc after the whole qvc thing

[@Meurth]

Ben never did anything wrong, those streamers just started trashing him and lying about him for no reason. Calling Ben an "elitist gatekeeper" is the most ridiculous thing ever if you consider how much Ben has done to popularize and teach chess, I've never been so mad.

[@sublimeade]

Qvc? Tell me more

[@jacobj3491]

@@sublimeade I'm just learning about this now too. Dropping a link below. Seems like xqc (which Ben mispronounces as qvc) got shit-talked by Ben. Probably because xqc was the #1 chess streamer for a while even though he's rated sub 1000. A lot of GMs were not happy about that for obvious reasons and some went on to insult him. Xqc called them gatekeepers. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZuXZKl3lq53a68

@@jacobj3491 ty for helpful info bro

[@zathras11b53]

THIS! More of THIS and fewer 'shorts'. THIS is the good stuff! Also, 5:45 'pedantic' = "excessively concerned with minor details or rules; overscrupulous."

[@DinaBelenkaya]

lol im sorry why don’t you like shorts?!

[@HiFisch94]

​@@DinaBelenkayaI'm not him, but if you're interested, I'll share my opinion: shorts are a nice medium to get new viewers to your channel and they are quite entertaining. Having said that: I don't like to spend my time watching shorts - they feel shallow and are forgettable, also KZbin is extremely packed with them. In contrast: Videos like this video have less dense content, but feel way more natural. In your case, I think they allow for a more genuine feel for your personality which I personally like to see/shine. That being said: I think both formats have their own right to exist

[@bacca71]

@@DinaBelenkaya Ummm -- shorts good. Like YOUR shorts!

[@PeteQuad]

Agree with HiFisch. Shorts are not why I come to KZbin. They occupy about 0.1% of my viewing time.

[@whukriede]

Great piece, and both are so lovely and so kind.

[@debasishraychawdhuri]

Dina: Your position is trash. Grandmaster: It's not bad. Stockfish: See he is not a grandmaster for nothing.

[@Carmidian]

"Who's turn is it?" I absolutely cracked up

[@googlewhackthis]

Man, he's vicious. His trash-talk, I would guess, is way beyond what any other GM would bring to the board.

[@victorfinberg8595]

dina is focused on intimidating ben by staring at him. ben is focused on pretending to ignore dina. which strategy will succeed?
