@maxkho00 4 года назад

I don't think I will ever understand why no one ever gets the timestamps right. Like you LITERALLY just have to look at the time in the video and post that exact same time in the comment. Is it really that hard? How hard would it be for you to type 12:00 instead of 12:02? I'm sorry, I just don't get it. Is this a trend or something? It makes 0 sense. Yes, I know, I'm triggered, but I have every right to be...

@ernestohrnell7369 4 года назад

Max Khovansky yeah, I get you. Now that you say that, it’s really weird :D I think it’s because the whole “complicated!” situation registered in my brain at 12:02 when it ended instead of 12:00 where it actually started, so I typed the 12:02 since it’s more emotionally charged for me. Yep, needed to type the beginning since people would tap on the wrong timestamp and just skip the thing I talked about. Thank you! I’m fixing it in the original post. Have a great day!

@nathansharp3193 4 года назад

This video is a great answer to "Why doesn't [insert IM's name] become a GM?" Because you have to dedicate days to learning a single game theory, you have to learn hundreds of games, and you have to consistently recall those games under pressure over the board. Plus travel and expenses, finding sponsors (meeting sponsor obligations), and more that I can't even fathom. And after all that you can use your GM title to sell lessons, make RU-vid videos, and get paid to lecture. Which every IM I know of already does successfully. This is a great video showing the complexities of high-level chess. 👍👍

@@joshualee6559 no he did really well. He was 11 seed. He wiped the floor with the number six seed, and had a two point lead over the third seed who was the highest rated and closest to being a gm. Choking in bullet doesn't mean he did poorly. He draws world class players like sveshnikov easily, he is really strong, but people watch him so much he becomes what they are used to seeing im's play like thus normalizing his amazing play

@davidnorton1851 4 года назад

Crazy that they went through that whole line if Christopher had never played it before and just found all those moves himself

@howard5992 4 года назад

Well it was pretty straightforward through move 10 or 11, when Eric offered a knight for a bishop and then advanced a pawn while leaving his second knight under attack and a pawn hanging. So it's a sort of gambit move. It feels like he should then be on the defensive with white attacking but the white king is in a generally poor position. On Eric's notes it's clear that there is no one single line...it branches out. But he had the preparation advantage and knew he could wage an attack. The prep also gave him a time advantage as he was able to move quickly at many points early on. Just my opinion as a novice...

@bingobongo131 4 года назад

Sometimes I understand why Fischer wanted 960, it just feels like at the highest level, theory is too important and I feel like this can really take the fun out of finding good moves or just playing in general.

@marutsubba 4 года назад

Everything in universe has fundamentals and chess is just a broad game. 960 is not for everyone. But once 960 goes mainstream it will also have it's own opening. So your comment doesn't make sense.
