Hi Gotham, In episode five of Queens Gambit was mentioned a game variation named after the Lithuanian chess player Vladas Mikėnas. Born in 1910, Mikėnas was the first professional Lithuanian chess player, an international referee, journalist, and author of books about chess. Mikėnas became the Lithuanian champion several times, won the Estonian Championship in 1930, and played in the finals of the USSR chess championship 10 times. In 1987, Mikėnas was awarded the title of Honorary Grandmaster by the International Chess Federation FIDE. Mikenas System, also called Flohr-Mikenas System or Mikenas-Carls System, is named after the Lithuanian player. The defence of the queen’s horse is also called Bogoliubov-Mikenas defence. Would be amazing if you could cover any of Mikėnas games in your videos :)

I think this is some of your best content. Wow what a gentle guy you can't hate a man like that (talking about Ivanchuk)! Really hearing the thought train during a match how they analyse is so great to listen to and how amazing they plot moves! Wow!

I love how happy he gets about the backwards knight move. That's true passion

I have heard a lot about Ivanchuk but finally I get why he is such a legend. Giddy as a school girl describes him well. I just became a true fan!

The true hero of this moment the tiny short-armed T-rex who boldly attempted to feed Ivanchuk her mike for 30 minutes, almost chasing him off the stand. Also generous, Ivanchuk (for sharing so much from memory at the interview) and Levy for clarifying it and adding a board for mortals like me to understand the position. So glad I looked deep into the gotham archives. Thanks!
