Can I just say that I subscribed to Agad for a year now and unfortunately I have lost alot passion for chess. I LOVE THE GAME. I used to have a chess club at school where I used to play and develop my skills every lunchtime but then Covid struck. All lunchtime clubs have been cancelled. I used to go to my school chess club more or less every lunch and now it's gone. We built a community and friendships benefitting from such clubs and activities and now it feels we have been kept and encaged like animals. Sectioning off small parts of the playground for more than 200 people. I haven't got a chance to have a face to face conversation with my friends the year above and below me since last year February. I wish we could restart the chess club like before when we return to school.

[@hrudayaranjansahoo2781]

Agadmator is making too many mistakes: 1. He didn't say "without further ado" 2. 5:28 --> Qxh7# is checkmate, no need for Rg5+ Edit: Unless black plays Qg6 or Nf6 (which Bortnyk, being a GM, most certainly will do), Qxh7 is definitely a checkmate. So, yes, Rg5 is the next move for sure from Radjabov.

[@turidoth]

Sry, nvm

[@hrudayaranjansahoo2781]

@@turidoth what you mean? the white rook supports the queen. Unless black plays Qg6 or Nf6, Qxh7 is definitely a checkmate.

[@duder1328]

I’m not even an amateur at chess but I love these videos. I have a question about a possible line: instead of the queen capture and sacrifice, why not capture the black bishop with the white bishop, which would put pressure on the black queen. If pawn captures the bishop, it could open up that lane for the queenside rook? Or was there something I missed that would make that a blunder?
