I allow manipulation to find out where my enemy wants me to go. Then I use my mind to break the trap and punish the perpetrators.

[@alt6983]

I still sometimes struggle the proper definition of 'sacrifice' in chess terms. However, this really makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the great analysis

[@rawnclark]

If you're giving up more material for the move it's a sacrifice

Mindblowing genius of a man rip emory tate

[@ShareefusMaximus]

It's not really a fair question because if he wanted to be a GM he would have been. But he was only interested in playing beautiful games. He could have gone to tournaments and played to get the point, but he passed on a lot of opportunities and when he sat down it was for his art.

[@zaayd]

Is this speculation or did he say this?

[@ShareefusMaximus]

@@zaayd That's not my analysis, other people have remarked that he left easy draws to go for wins and played as aggressively against strong opponents as he did against weaker ones. GM Ben Feingold also said that he was very strong and could have been a GM.

[@zaayd]

@@ShareefusMaximus So it's speculation? I'm asking if he ever said it himself

[@ShareefusMaximus]

@@zaayd I never heard him say that. There is not much video or audio from him. Mostly, other people have talked about him. Sort of like the playground legend that everyone thought could play in the NBA, Earl Manigault, or someone like that. #Legend

[@abogmus8904]

Great analysis as always! Tate's mind games are insane

[@ottomeister8]

Thanks, agreed 💪

[@briacilya12ans44]

How did you get acces to those game ? Just wondering , great vídeo btw

[@fromthe3128]

Love E Tate, but Nezhmetdinov is without a doubt the greatest IM

[@ChrisFood]

It would be cool to see a game between Andrew and Emory

[@loganbair9562]

Emory would smoke him lmao, Andrew would put up somewhat of a fight tho, there’s like a 500 Elo difference

[@ChrisFood]

@@loganbair9562 I thought it was a lot more than 500

[@milesmonacothesequel2294]

​@@ChrisFood it's a 900 Elo difference Tate is 1600, Emory is 2500

[@divinereaper7809]

good analysis well done

[@stevenloren5434]

Great video, but what would have had happened if he didn’t take the rook sacrifice?

[@ottomeister8]

The g5 pawn was falling

[@Brucelee-pv6uf]

2:15 omg I just played game like that

[@anthonymanzo9880]

I always learn something new when I watch your videos. Like the concept of good vs bad bishop. It is the subtle little tips that help out huge in my own play.

[@mrfloxy6983]

that was a great video, I love the tates and I really like how we emory Tate plays. Thanks for the analysis to.

[@ottomeister8]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@daan8148]

THE ROOOOOOKKKKKKKK

[@jozokl2654]

He was GM 2500 Elo=Gm

[@benjamindillard2391]

That's his USCF raring. His peak FIDE was 2413. Not GM.

[@Hadi_Sleiman]

its not fair why emorys enemy didnt to en passent

[@sefer1377]

Idk if you read my comment about you speaking to fast and you should slow down for your audience that are not native english speaker. But now I can say that you are talking slower and i can understand you much better. Cheers mate!

[@oulxe-fy]

no

[@benjamindillard2391]

Nezmetdinov beat a prime Tal. Tate wouldn't beat Tal even if Tal were on his death bed.

[@TheReal_GigaChad]

That's an oddly false statement

[@benjamindillard2391]

@@TheReal_GigaChad You think Tate could take a game over a prime Tal? Don't make me laugh.

[@fromthe3128]

thank you lol someone else knows about Nezh. Not only did he beat a prime Tal, he beat him 3-1 in classical OTB games, dude was a machine

[@japaneseger]

Bro he was decent, nowhere near a strong IM tho.. cmon hahaha

[@robinceuppens2178]

yet many gm's resigned because of his brutal playstyle every one of his game are pure art thats what makes him so good and fun too watch truly a great mind

[@ohareair552]

What do you mean nowhere near a strong IM? An IM who can obliterate GMs is a strong IM

[@dvh6298]

Every IM has obliterated GMs in his or hers lifetime.

[@japaneseger]

@@ohareair552 Every single IM in lifetime has won against a GM, it's literally nothing special. You just hype him up because of his last name. Non of this would've been uploaded if it wasn't for his sons. I can bet you're literal bots in chess

[@ohareair552]

@@japaneseger He does it regularly and convincingly. Besides, he’s also notorious for his unique play style, not just his successes
