[@rajinikanthmuthukrishnan7619]

I am a simple man. I see a video upload from Mato, I press like.

[@sonnyf90]

Thanks Mato , your video's are always fun and instructive to watch. Learned alot of queens gambit because of the Alekhine video's !

[@karjun53]

A really an entertaining exercise again - thanks Mato!

[@Jonathanpaulm]

Thank you, Mato! Great analysys

[@Szabest1797]

That was fabulous! Thanks yet again for the terrific post!

[@dishil1]

Hi....Dear Mato...:) I m love with alekhine's games. all bcuz of u..... It Is best experience to listen alekhine's Games with your Osum Voice. Thanks Mato. #TrueFan. #Matojelic

[@LaCosaNostra1312]

Hi Mato greetings from Karlovac : D...too bad local chess club, once famous, succumbed too few veteran patzers with no young members to continue the tradition. Love your vids. Keep up.

[@flamboyantamo]

mato brilliant. I found the move but not the moves after oh well, good too see you going strong still..

[@60vijay]

the problem with today GM's NO ONE plays like this , everyone plays d expected boring game , as if everyone is looking for a draw

[@TrotisApple]

+Natasha S. Still played wonderful games against those two. Two WCC.

[@theegyptiangamer2530]

They should use a system that you get 3 points for Winning like in football

[@NightRider0101]

@anastasia dmt Paul Morphy, Adol Anderson, Wilhelm Steinitiz all played amazingly creative and attacking games against equally competent players. Modern players are only good at memorizing engine movies, they have zero creative thinking.

[@NightRider0101]

@anastasia dmt And not to forget the games between Rashid Nezhmetdinov and Michael Tal. None of them was "weak" yet those games are very creative, not these boring draws we see these days.

[@LJLMETAL]

Sometimes in a Chess game, you would have to ask; WWAD? What would Alekhine do?

[@groth901]

good game. mato....would you please upload more games of alekhine playing with black pieces? i love to see what he does with his great imagination when he doesn t have the first move!

[@Zodiac20003]

I guessed d5. Mate threat on h2 if exchanged followed by taking on e6 and taking a lot of space. If it's ignored, just go pawn grabbing and you will trade a very passive pawn on g2 for a very dangerous one on e6.

[@Santiagobateria]

this alekhine series is amazing

[@vishalchavda3663]

The killer move was like TAL

[@lowlypeasant]

Amazing.

[@amkop6695]

Can You post more of your games

[@rkuppal5]

Alekhine is my favourite chess GM..I think he is the greatest of all time..

[@williambunter3311]

Thanks once more Mato. Lawrence below referred to WWAD (what would Alekhine do?) moments. The problem is that if anyone knew the answer to that question, he or she would be as good as Alekhine, which might be true of one in a million players (if any)! The genius of Alekhine is absolutely breathtaking. The only player who matches him for sheer straight out of the blocks aggression and excitement is Judit Polgar, and, at times, Fischer.

[@jarmokajander7990]

THANK YOU!!

[@60vijay]

Hi Mato , when ever u say what is the best move , its not actually d best move its d unexpected crazy move alwways, how many agree with me

[@krabber92]

Alekhine is a brilliant player! ;)

[@MolisLtu]

I found those moves, but i was not sure if it leads to victory.

[@unit1301]

I missed the knight move. I now realize that at 70 years of age my quest to become a chess grand master has officially ended. Tennis, anyone?

[@feminismiscancer4755]

You're really 70?

[@unit1301]

03/04/47 next March I'll turn 70. Interesting name you have. Eastern European? I'd love to see Romania before I go belly up.

[@flamboyantamo]

no my friend. to continue to try I'd to succeed to give up is to fail as you already know you may get there at 72y

[@flamboyantamo]

+flamboyantamo #is

[@feminismiscancer4755]

unit1301 no. My parents are from Mauritius

[@tosgem]

I am a very new, bad chess player, I actually found that "killer move", with the knight sacrifice and then bishop, but I couldn't think any farther ahead and went back to looking for a better move. So now I feel very hopeless, I don't know a good move even if it smacks me in the face.

[@Arisudev]

dont be sad... most gm wont find this move sequence too. mr gross didnt expect this kove either, that's why the sacrifice is allowed to happen.

[@singhbackONtrack]

+Elkapan Comeon hehe,Tetris 😛

[@tosgem]

+Music man lol, thanks bro but he's trolling, the most obvious troll in the world. I won't give up yet ;-)

[@cvetkojovcevski645]

keep playing and watching these videos, the vision will come to you,it's a hard game to learn and takes time.

[@tomychalea]

who is emily and david?

[@MatoJelic]

Friends

[@azy63]

+MatoJelic Your friends must be wonderful people. They're lucky to have you as a friend. It's obvious how you cherish them. 😆

[@simon_patterson]

Well happy birthday Emily and good luck David...

[@hnalike7778]

Just great

[@nazlone]

[@fonzi102]

this Alekhine so far, maybe is the only one same level as tal :D

[@skakofilsanonims4434]

Incredible tactics

[@Narrowcros]

I thought it would be Knight take e6, good game indeed.

[@oscarbetancourt6628]

damn that was COOL. i think i have new favorite player, sorry keres.

[@wajdyalnaserallah334]

you missed that black rook takes the bishop and checkmate would be delayed ...mato

[@thomaseads1236]

Wajdy Alnaserallah Mato didn't miss anything. the black rook is pinned by White's dark squared Bishop.

[@Instant224]

Hell yeah Mato keep killin

[@v.gopalakrishnan350]

Spellbinding!

[@TazControl9]

now I know how Mato would react to walking in on his parents!

[@markbutler6788]

Alekhine's chess was so complicated...wow. Subscribers, if you can't find the best move sometimes, don't despair. Just learn.

[@aleksabenovic6046]

A little historical mistake. Actually in 1929. it was called Kingdom of Yugoslavia. Sure the territory remained the same. Just the Government pushing for more Yugoslav unity instead of tribal allegiances.

[@MatoJelic]

It was called Kraljevina Srba, Hrvata I Slovenaca

[@andreyyhzz]

Mato the best!

[@elcastorgrande]

Gross played well until he came unglued with time pressure.

[@wolfgangwilhelm9699]

0:20 Karlovac is a selo pokraj kupe. Just kidding.

[@NightRider0101]

What tf is wrong with this guy's voice??

[@PogiWilliam]

Please no jmore geography and just Chess

[@MrJoeljoy]

He was the best player................................................................................................................ in his street LOL

[@tihomirhorcicka615]

I heard to Karlovac, because i live in Croatia!

[@ChrizPhenom]

This is better than sex...

[@baxterbrown8088]

I mean you're not wrong but rly that's not saying much.

[@edlawrence5059]
