[@MistaOppritunity]

I think it's not that people aren't interested in chess games played by people other than the 3 most popular chess players, it's that they need some sort of hook to click on the video in the first place. I have 100% seen fascinating games played by other players that I'm glad I saw, but with how many games are played at the top level, I can't possibly click on them all. So something would have to interest me about the video for me to click on it, and all too often, that interest is "insert player is playing."

Can someone explain to me why everyone looks at the future Indian prodigy and looks at pragg instead of gukesh???? I mean gukesh has been playing at such a high level the past year in such great events. He’s playing for a world championship. Why is it pragg, not gukesh?????

[@GeorgeEpting]

Amazing just look at whites knight bird and look at blacks knight bird for in this position I can see whites bishops facing the right direction towards the king the knights easily to head towards the king and the queen towards the king and nicely with a attack setting on the first two rows and now for black the bishops out of place the knights need help and basically blacks queen is on a see through knight pin he's got no attack white has all the attack and you say what but that's alright your a chess player but it gets tough for me to but this position white has a beautiful attack❤

[@jasonkoch3182]

I think the last time three players were over 2800 was during the 2020-21 candidates. Magnus, Ding and Fabi were all 2800 going into that tournament and I think Fabi ended up falling under 2800 during it. That was right at the start of his slump. And Ding didn’t play much after that because of covid so he stayed number 2 for a while before he ended up slipping under and bouncing over and under 2800.

Why not play Bxf6 instead of Rd1, seems it gets you to a better endgame. 9:28

[@Navii-05]

Hello. So, what I want to do with this message is to simply show what the Gospel is. I am not trying to force my belief down people's throats. It's your choice whether you want to accept it. Please read the whole text. So, a question: Do you think you are a good person? If so, have you ever stolen anything, lied, looked lustfully, watched adult material? All of those are sins and anyone who sinned is not good(on God's standard). You, I and most( most because babies don't sin, and maybe specifically mentally Ill people) purely human beings have violated God's moral law. Since God is just, He can't let sin go just like that. So is there any hope? Yes, there is. Out of love and mercy, God became a human being, Jesus Christ. Jesus lived a sinless life and finally died on the cross to bear the punishment we deserve, we deserve to be punished because we have sinned. The reason why blood must be spilled for forgiveness of sins is because the life of the flesh is in the blood, in the Old Testament Jews sacrificed animals for sins but the sacrifice of animals were enough to temporarily cover some sins. (it did not allow forgiveness of sins, unlike Jesus's, it only temporarily covered them). Jesus is the Lamb of God, the ultimate sacrifice for sins which is enough for all sins that have been done, are done and will be done. Jesus was buried and rose again. His resurrection proved that His death was enough to pay our penalty, the penalty for our sins. Jesus paid our penalty and in order to accept the free gift of salvation from God, we must trust in Jesus's spilled Blood, His finished work on the Cross for our Salvation. And then your sins will be forgiven because of what Christ did, you will be saved. See: Romans 3:1 , Romans 3:23 , Romans 5:12 , Romans 6:23 , Romans 5:8-9, Romans 10:9-10 , Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV, John 3:16 KJV, Leviticus 17:11 , Ephesians 1:7 , Colossians 1:20, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 .

7:50 Levy: Honestly? I have a feeling, he wanted to sack his rook. I think, actually, Bogdan brought his rook to e5, kissed it goodbye and said, "You're gonna perish for the, you know, the benefit of society." And, yeah, Fabi's like, "I'm not. I'm not taking your rook".

25:00 maybe it's the first time? But I doubt so, like, Magnus and Anish were 2800+, but was Fabi 2800 at that time? Somehow I feel there has to be at least one very small window where 3 people were 2800 at same time... Otherwise, pretty rare feat, no?
