Stockfish 17 demolishes e4 with a BRILLIANT Taimanov Sicilian!!!

[@Chessdrummer83]

Awesome I love the Taimanov, i've only faced this szen version a few times and struggled against it. Thanks for the great coverage!

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

That was great, tying down the kingside with the pawn and then the usual tactial briliance to win on the queen side. Thanks Josip.

[@blijebij]

Amazing game how the Fish can patiently step by step find and crack the weak chains in white's position! Brilliant so far ahead of Top Gms! Thanks josip, loved it!

[@Atlant0]

your new videos are much more pleasant to watch then the old ones. good stuff!

[@AgentSmith-w8s]

WOW,yeah i love the taimanov as well.Such a flexible sicilian and easy to get into,the accelerated dragon is also one of my favourites....I was hoping to see in 2025 joz re-making his famous dragon repertoire with better quality editing and extra lines would be cool as well? Please please please sir,could you make this happen in the near future...All the best joz and thanks for your channel,chess is the best.

My God. I just watched this video. Friggin wow man. The pawn sacrifices disconnecting the rooks ugh it seems so obvious after you see it but while the game is going on… One thing I love so much about these games is that ai is never afraid to make dumb looking moves. That scripture actually comes to mind, "Bog se poslužio ludostima svijeta da posrami mudre." I love that rook move blocking off connection, simultaneously attacking. Wow. This is something Ive seen in Stockfish 17 that I have not seen as much in the others, these simultaneous attacking and defending moves, but now I see it uses that quite a lot. Its definitely something to be learned from. And that knight move capturing on e4 instead of taking the bishop back on e8, love that! This game makes me feel like playing chess now, for sure. Also thank you for going into that knight to f1 move to show the vitality of attack. Helps a lot!

Great game great tactics from Stockfish so effective at finding the optimal squares for its pieces . Great recap Jozarov thanks for bringing this dynamic game to our attention 😊♟️‼️

[@nighthawk4028]

No human can play this tactical brilliance 😢

[@antiksur8883]

Ok, you've got to check this one out. TCEC Div P game 216 Stockfish vs. Berserk. Also, as I mentioned, maybe one of the SF vs Leela games (182?)

[@alpal2002]

Good game. Superultra is too greedy at taking pawns. it left its Rook disconnected.

[@dr.deepakgore1079]

Superb game played by Stocky , stunned by his moves , thanks GM Jojarov sir for always presenting best games. But one true fact is that the details of game we see due to your concrete analysis thanks. Chess is the best ❤❤🎉🎉

[@oscarhernandez2779]

Hi Jozarov! I was getting ready to go through all these chess videos including yours, but now my life has gone in a way where I cant fully pursue chess, so for now, I only have time to watch these ai videos, which are my favorite. I still have about 222 videos to go thru on your ai chess, Ive only gone through about 47 so far. So later when I finally have time, I will make a run through them all and learn so much. And even if I die, I will make sure, if God allows me, to pass them on to someone who will appreciate your dedication. And this thumbnail is absolutely beautiful. More and more your thumbnails make me want to watch the video. Youre a special guy! If you ever see Agadmator tell him I say hi I love that guy too. Hes really helped me learn a lot about chess too. And he was kind to me when he only had a few subscribers several years ago.

Stockfish 17 at high depths often prefers taimanov over najdorf.

[@peterpetrov6522]

We can learn more about how this game really works if SF played against human--trained, old school 2800--3200 engines. SF 17 against Deep Blue! SF17 against SF8--most of these games would be hilarious and immortal.

[@oscarhernandez2779]

Poor Stockfish 8. 😭

[@modolief]

Yikes, playing with black against the Maroczi. I have a hard time with that bind.

[@antiksur8883]

Yikes. Out of 4 pairs in the TCEC DivP, Leela lost 3 to Stockfish and drew the other. Makes you wonder what might happen in the Superfinals.

[@oscarhernandez2779]

Do you have a link for those games? Id love to see them!

[@Alex-yq5xl]

Hello Jozarov, i always enjoy your videos and i wanted to ask whether i should first start to watch your Tarrash Defense Playlist or your Semi-Tarrash playlist. Which order would you suggest?

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

I would go with the semi-tarrasch

[@Alex-yq5xl]

@Jozarovschesschannel Thank you!

[@manuelgarrido5602]

Stratospheric level.

[@mcronrn]

(The Comments are turned off in your latest video…) 🧐🙏

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Hm, Dont know why. Thanks I’ll try to fix it
