My favorite game of all time was between Ivanchuk and Kasparov in Linares in 91 I believe. Kasparov was in his prime and a young Ivanchuk made Kasparov look like a amateur. He had almost all of Kasparov’s pieces in one corner of the board. Kasparov didn’t get anxious about playing many people in those days but Chucky was one of them.

Ngl, as a very unexperienced player, I always feel great when I find the winning move, but finding Ivanchuk's winning move has a special flavor to it

[@spydersweb2]

really like your grand perspective on chess, the fact that you always inform when a unique position has been reached

[@mycommentpwnz]

Personally, I REALLY like that you include that move that made the match unique from that point forward. It just adds flavor to the video.

[@oishiich.4814]

"We have a completely new position" = Never ever been reached before, at least not in the database "This position has never been reached again" = From that point on, no games have that position ever again

[@IncitatusConsul]

I would think that much would be fairly obvious

[@VioletGiraffe]

Really? I Thought that's a weird joke. With only 32 pieces on a 8x8 board and strict movement rules, surely all the meaningful positions have been discovered long ago? It's not like a deck of 36 cards where by shuffling you almost certainly always get a new unique never seen before deck order.
