+kingscrusher Has the Benko Gambit gone out of style in the last thirty years? That was a blast to play as a teenager. --Many thanks for your fine channel and analysis.

[@pierphurba3928]

Nakamura and Tal in one title are already attractive. And when Kingcrusher is commenting, it's even more enjoyable. Great explanation in beautifull spoken english language. (If someone wants to learn to speak english, listen to Kingcrusher). This all deserves more than 94 views and 4 likes.. (keep them comming)

Used to play the Benoni years ago, now it's KID or Grunfeld. Great to see this fascinating opening again by a top GM. Love it!

Thanks for posting, I'm getting back into chess and I'm seeing more and more Fianchetto variations these days. Not the first time somebody has recommended ...g5.

[@georgestamps]

Thanks for the insightful analysis KC

[@2Edelweis]

Great analysis, concrete and educational.

[@paulgoogol2652]

very nice destruction of the white king position. Tals style was so unique you cannot compare it to anyones though. this was a combination a 12 year old Carlsen would spot immediatly. well even I saw the moves, only failed to see Qf1 expecting the worse Qf3 defense :€

[@biernico]

I read somewhere that kayden was being mentored by kasparov

[@gratitude62]

Brilliant...thanks.

[@zeimarunescape]

Just remembered how naka said his position was rubbish haha

[@renatoeckel2011]

KC: I am a huge fan of nakamura as well, but c'mon, you shouldn't compare him with Tal. There is simply no comparison, Tal is the greatest attacking chess player of ALL TIMES. And to be frank with you, unfortunately, I don't see anyone nowadays that can be even close to Tal. Period!

[@endoplast55]

Renato Eckel what about rashid?

[@Narrowcros]

Odd this young kid couldnt use his dark squared Bishop at all

[@TheSLK66]

I wouldn't say Nakamura is the modern Mikhail Tal, Alexander Morozevich is the true modern Tal of these days/

[@herzwatithink9289]

Impressive!

[@josephzemgulys4950]

Cut the trivia please!

[@BenjaminEvans-gd3ms]

Tal-lke? you must be joking.

[@genericnameSS]

King h8? dont hate the king lol

[@1987DeLarge]

Im sorry to say that it's a sacrilege comparing Nakamura to Tal. One is an arrogant blitz patzer and the other was a f***ing wizard.
