What's crazy, is when I heard him say this, my brain immediately saw your comment In my head. Got all the way to the end of the video and then looked down and saw this I'm like he beat me to it lol, too good.
Dubov has really been shining in his tournaments lately, he is playing such aggressive beautiful games, hope he keeps up this momentum, such a great player and ofc such a great video by Agad!
@@thealgeriantank2587 He's played plenty of brilliant moves/games that weren't prep. His queenside castle against giri in 2018, his 14 move mate sequence against svane, bishop g2 against ding earlier this year, the list goes on.

Man my brother I can't thank you enough for your program because of you my chess game has improved by leaps and bounds you have such a clear and understandable way of explaining the game of chess thank you thank you thank you my brother
Hello my friend, I played chess quite regularly gets to 2600 EL oh rated computer back in the mid 90s but it took your channel to get me actually back in chess at age 60 so I can’t thank you enough and keep up the great work as you’re the best commentator out there right now and believe me I’ve done a test drive on most of the other ones. God bless and stay saf Tom
@@tarico4436 After Queen Captures pawn on a2, white can just ignore this and attack Nakamura's king since white is ahead in development (meaning he has taken out his pieces and is ready to attack easily). Nakamura's king is very vulnerable because the pawns are overextended. When the queen was on a5 it could at least come back to defend (like queen from a5 to d8 and then f6 or something like that), but on a2 it cannot come back to defend easily. In conclusion it just gives him too much initiative for a pawn. If anyone wants to add anything please do because I could be wrong.
Don't know bout Hikaru, but Rook c to a1 looks like it traps the queen most of those times or the knight on c3 is guarding it. Any specific time you would've grabbed it?
I chose the name (Agadmator) since it was already my nickname. I was told I should change it because no one can pronounce it or even remember it, but I thought that's a plus. If someone Googles it, I'm the first thing that pops up. -agad in an interview
I know this would be extremely unusual for you, but I hope you can also do Dubov v. Nakamura games 2 and 3 in this same match - both of those games were absolutely fantastic. The final moments of Game 2, when it looked like Dubov was about to win, and then Nakamura swindled him, and Game 3 where Naka had that astounding rook exchange sacrifice to lock up the win. What an incredible match overall.
Dubov is the most underrated player in chess. I honestly think he may become number 2 behind Magnus if he keeps this up. He’s just so good at finding positional gaps and doesn’t lose his cool when an opponent pressures him, just like Magnus he has absolutely no fear
140,000 prize for the winner. Love seeing big amounts of money in this sport... they really deserve it cause it’s hard work playing at this level. Hope Chess comes bigger and bigger nowadays
The dialogue I like very much from AGADMATOR "HELLO EVERYONE!!!"😂😁... I always give a like to the video on hearing that.. you are awesome agadmator(hello everyone)...😂😁👍👍
Beautiful play by Dubov. While Nakamura was bringing empty threats, Dubov built up a merciless attack. When I spotted the final blow Bxe5, I couldn't help but grin at how powerless black pieces are.
hey agadmator how about some tutorial videos on the intuition behind the opening and middle games because u know we will love to see it from you...you could give us knowledge about intuitive placements for the pieces and positional advices...
The chess world should thank Magnus for creating this tour, and Agad for the wall to wall coverage. The world is a crazy hellhole but this is still enjoyable
#suggestion# you should describe the tournament and its stages first... By a daigram or something... It would be good... And interesting to follow then... Nice game... Enjoyed😎
hi agdmator, i am a subscriber from egypt i am thinking of making a chess channel simmilar to yours but in arabic, and i have few questions, how do you show your face as the chess board at the same time, how to get the chess board you are using and use it, this will be very helpful in the florishing of chess in the arabic world as there are few good channels, thanks
I found Qg6+ with the same idea, if Kh8 then Bxf7 threatens checkmate while attacking the queen, and if Bg7 then Bxe5 again threatens checkmate, forcing Qxe5 and now Qxf7+ mates in two. I might have missed something though, I gave it two minutes max.
Regarding some of your latest video titles. I can't say that I enjoy you dividing the sentence and moving second half of it to the thumbnail. I like the idea behind this but it feels impractical as a viewer who likes reading titles. I don't know how others feel about it but I don't like seeing half of the title is missing after clicking one of your videos and going back to see what was it. It's even worse in mobile as there is some kind of auto-highlighter or something that removes thumbnail when I'm scrolling. I know there are solutions to this such as not being an idiot and reading everything before clicking the video and stuff, but what I'm thinking is. Should there be a need to find solutions for just reading the title? Other than that great work! Enjoy your videos more than ever. Just wanted to share my experience with this naming trend.
I think that they should keep the qualifications by winning tournments. Magnus faces Øen, and Dubov faces Carslen. Magnus could be the first and second in the same tournment.
