Man, I never comment here, but I have to say that me and I'm sure many others really appreciate your approach to presenting us the games respectfully, humbly and with a light sense of humor. No desperation for being on top of the KZbin algorithm. Pure, genuine and sincere. OG chess creator that brought thousands closer to the game.

First comment I liked so far

[@burakates2036]

If Anand started the slaughter a bit earlier he would likely be the challenger :)

[@Megan-ii4gf]

For WCC? I think Anand's already proven himself by winning that title several times. He's a true legend, it's great to see him back.

[@jamesmantil5186]

Yeah, amazing that Anand even at 52 has what it takes to be a challenger. But I think all that intense prep doesn't interest him anymore, and I can't blame him. I'm happy he's doing what he loves when he wants to

[@burakates2036]

​ @Megan ​ @James Mantil Vishy has nothing to prove but reaching the candidates at 50+ would likely be an unrepeatable feat as it'll only get harder in the future with the way engines are progressing. Would miss his great commentary during the championship game though.

[@saleemullah4991]

[@RoyAlexander214]

When I got out of jail for the last time as I’ve been in and out of rehabs,prison, and jail. I was released and was homeless with only the pajamas, moccasins, and parka jacket I was wearing when arrested. My brother reached out and allowed me to stay with him and try to get on my feet. It was hard and Agadmators chess channel and A.A (reverse that) we’re what kept me clean and sober. I met an amazing woman playing chess online and seriously my life was like a movie. This man showed me chess in the most beautiful ways. The story has gone bad and now my life is lie after lie as a heroin addict living in my car. How this woman doesn’t know I’m using is beyond me and yet still what brings me peace and a chuckle from time to time is the way Antonio analyzes these beautiful games. Thank you sir. Been watching since you had that futon covered with a sheet and your dog always crashed on it.

There is no substitute for experience . Watched the match live .

Hard luck but Anand is back !!! Sometimes a win like this is better than a outright win

It’s a weird classical time format with no increment, I think topalov was not used to such a format. It’s not everyday you see time run out in a classical match for a reason

it’s a shame games are decided on time. this was a super enjoyable game and i wished to have seen it played out.

[@chopincookies]

Yesterday-and this is so bizarre and melancholy-I dreamt of this queen’s gambit accepted game. It is also melancholy of how Toparov-once world’s no.1 beyond Anand and Kramnik (Levon was at the time no.3, then after Kramnik followed Peter Svidler and Leko, then Ivanchuk.)-has been in this ephemeral fragility of time. The world has changed a lot.

[@sunilsimha5496]

"Melancholy" means great sadness or depression. This game was anything but. Do you mean to say "peculiar"?

[@chopincookies]

@@sunilsimha5496 That would be both correct and objected. Correct in the sense of that I have the habit of misusing the words “peculiar” and “melancholy” as the substitution to each other. But I would call for an objection of that statement also-in the sense that I was mentioning that Veselin Topalov used to be the world no.1, but with the changing of time and the mind of people, I mede the hypothesis also that the way chess is treated has been changed tremendously even counting from decade ago since.
