He's an alien undercover and his species can't tolerate caffeine.

[@dawsonwu7272]

[@davidanderson_surrey_bc]

As far as I'm concerned, a day without coffee is like a day without waking up. At all. Ever. At a church men's breakfast meeting many many years ago (when I still young and idealistic), one guy stood up and said, "Thank God, I've been delivered from coffee!" At which another guy immediately also stood up and declared, "Thank God I haven't!". I said Amen to the second guy and asked the server to pour me another cup.

How many times in this game did Firouzja put a piece INTO harm's way, and agadmator said, "...but Black cannot capture the piece because..."

[@Saomaro007]

Let me say this! I love your videos, they are clean informative and even if u cant rly think amazing to watch. U also dont put ads which is amazing when i lay in bed and watch it on my phone right before sleep. Keep this good work up please! It makes my day better :)

[@coleabrahams9331]

Also note that if black played Rd8 at the end instead of capturing the pawn with the idea of stopping Rd7, which Alireza played in the game, white had Kf4 with the unstoppable threat of Ng4# (checkmate). Absolutely insane

[@mscir]

Thanks as always for your detailed discussion of strategy, I appreciate these discussions very much.

[@mmdurante1616]

Firouzja threw in a little tactic at the end, but unusually for him, he played a very nice positional game for the most part. Sign of maturity in his play. Karpov would be proud!

[@IMANGHAFOORI]

And the white kind said: "You all stay here, I will go for the attack:"

Hi, agadmator! You are creating big chess content on your channel. I am Ukrainian and enjoy watching all the videos. But when i try to recommend your channel to friend's they just don't understand English 😅 maybe we can do captions in Russian or so on? It would definitely increase your audience. Let me know if you want some help with captions, i can probably make free hour or few a day to make them! Like if it is a good Idea)
