[@thejupiter1744]

Wow 😮. Now I know why Grischuk has won the blitz world championships THREE times!!!!

[@syedarslanalishah6905]

And what's more interesting is that Grischuk did it less than a minute to produce this beautiful game! Plus he had flu and temperature that time.

[@hellaclownin]

One time I sacrificed my queen for a pawn and resigned immediately.

@@reducecotwo That logic doesn't really work. There are only some few thousand grandmasters in the world and of those far fewer compete consistently at the highest level.

Few thousand? More like 1300.

[@Shockprowl]

Oh My Godfathers, that's one of the most incredible checkmates I've ever seen! AND it was in a blitz game! I knew Grischuk was a speed chess expert, but... wow...

[@pazdziochowaty]

This is the power of preparation. I heard Grischuk admitting he knew this at least up to Bxe7 so he might as well analyse ideas connected to the final checkmating attack. Such a deep prep is invaluable in blitz games, it allows to build a known position without wasting time on the clock. The time is then used to calculate concrete variations precisely while the opponent has already burned the clock and cannot answer with the best moves

I saw it live too, and this game was, as you said, just outstanding. Incredible attack by Grischuk

[@misternoodle1236]

This is probably my favorite game of chess from the last twenty years or so. Grischuk is also one of my favorite chess players, this game probably sparking a lot of that.

[@naqashazam8110]

Agad, you're doing a hell of a job man. I learned how to sacrifice my pawn for a knight and my bishop for a queen, from your videos!

[@NowhereMan7]

Its not a sacrifice if the trade of pieces is in your favour such as "pawn for a knight" or "bishop for a queen"

[@MatiasMaldona3]

@@NowhereMan7 It is a sacrifice, nonetheless. A queen sacrifice that wins the game is still a queen sacrifice, a piece sacrifice that wins a queen is still a piece sacrifice, and so on.

Grischuk is my favorite active chess player.. such fun to watch 😁😁😁

[@thisnicklldo]

Wonderful attack. Grischuk seems to play pretty much every game in the last 5 minutes before his flag falls, even when he's given a couple of hours to start with. Adrenaline seems to fuel his imagination.

He's a time trouble junkie, like Ivanchuk :P

Blitz chess really boggles my mind. Nakamura just put up a 3 hour video yesterday, I watched the first two hour and a little, he went 22-0 in that time, it's just unfathomable how far ahead of a normal player the top blitz players are.

[@nigelfarage4119]

Blitz players are more intuition(natural talent) than theory or prep....that would be Grischuk and Nakamura

[@konsolebox]

Really brilliant

Fabulous Game!! Great commentary!

[@gonzalo4658]

Agadmator sounds the coolest saying "checkmate", like there's no other actor celebrity or any human being alive that can say that word and have that robotesque feel with Agadmator's -checkmate- hahaha. and speaking of robot, grischuk just straight hammered this because not even grandmasters could see his intent, like wtf he's like a robot, and in so little time. edit: sorry for the awkward "hahaha"

[@saudkhan2870]

nice vision

[@ex0duzz]

Wow h4 is such a nice subtle move.. No minor or major piece threats or forks etc, just a pawn move to threaten an unstoppable mate in one threat. Deadly. Course, I doubt grischuk saw all this when he played e5 and sacked the rook, it was just mvl who got outplayed after that since it was blitz after all, ni way is the rook sac sound, but it doesn't need to be in blitz. Bravo grischuk! First time I seen the queen mate threat into check and then recapture into connected pawn mate..

[@nigelfarage4119]

I've Seen

[@chazkennedy2919]

Yeah, the spin entry is cool but I still want Agad to bring Medo up to the camera for a proper introduction...Medo is the coolest

[@yadneshkanade8160]

When Grishchuk played Rooke to d1, I guess Maxime should’ve played bishop to d7

[@140TrillionSuns]

I come back just to see the dog 😌

[@pgsells]

I don't think the mate pattern is that hard to think of - knight bolted down on f6, one rook already on the eighth rank, and the locked f7-g6-h5 structure all immediately suggest the possibility. Interesting, though, that none of Grischuk's plan needed to rely on the f4-f5 push which is so typical of the Grand Prix. I tend to think of the Grand Prix as a one-trick pony in structural terms, so it's good to see that it isn't.

Hello there. I have recently rediscovered chess as a hobby after 6 years of break. I am just a 1602 scrub, but with some candidate master scalps under my belt. I am looking forward to get better and I have discovered your channel, which i enjoy very much. Because, well, how not to enjoy loads of Tal and Ivanchuk. May I suggest a game? www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1886465 This is a very recent game between Emil Sutovsky and Fabiano Cuarana, so it's top level. not much ina way of comments on chessgames.com people have probably dismissed it as yet another draw. BUT HOLY COW THIS DRAW IS ABSOLUTELY BONKERS. Pawn sac for opening position, Tal-esque sac, tonnes of tactics. I have NEVER seen so much fire in my beloved Caro-Kann, ever. I am trying to wrap my head around it but, being a scrub, i fail miserably. Help me Agad-Wan, you are my only hope.

[@xyon9090]

*Yes!* I found the winning move!

what video?

[@TheBarber5550]

NOONmusic where is this video??

[@ShubhashishGuptamaestroashu]

What if MVL plays queen f5 to g4. Then there is no pawn capture to check the king.

[@jeconiahjoelmichaelsiregar7917]

Simply Nxg4+ Kh7 then Nf6+. MVL has no other option but to play Kh6, and Qg5# by Grischuk is unstoppable. So Qg4 by MVL is giving up a queen for nothing except to prolong the game.

[@navjot749]

Thats why magnus says grischuk is a 'perfectionist' .

[@joryhansen50]

Multiple times I'm watching your videos and the video feed goes blank. Not sure if it's the phone, KZbin, a pop up advertisement, or the channel. Just wondering if anyone else has this issue.

[@PlanetFlux]

Jory H Yes. Same happened to me and I couldn't recover from a solid black screen until I eventually closed and restarted the entire KZbin app (Android). Another poster above seems to indicate having experienced a similar (if not identical) phenomenon, which I encountered after watching the first couple minutes of the video without incident. After restarting the app, though, I was able to finish watching without any issues. Anybody have any ideas as to how this particular video seems capable of inducing a serious KZbin playback failure that has been independently reproduced by multiple unrelated viewers? Please note that I am not blaming the uploader or the video itself by any means (enjoyed and appreciated the high quality content!) -- I am simply curious about what is going on.

[@pomstarSF]

Watch Matojelic (as suggested) and keep on watching videos on this channel. For more details about common tricks and blunders and good moves to make after openings, watch GJ_Chess and also search for "Akobian chess lectures". Those videos will help change your mindset. The rest is up to you, it's all about your plan for the game and what you want your opponent to do and think. Experience is important man, good luck.
