Great commentary once again!

Hi michy. you are a nice man. I like your commentary .

[@MichyBG]

Wow, thanks! 😊

Hi Michy, great insight again. I don't think you were as sharp as usual. Apart from the oversight, there were a few other positions that you overlooked slightly, which I'm sure you would play correctly on another day. Just shows that even top Grandmasters can have their off days too. One final point, when you were calculating your racing lead (in the last game), you converted your pip count but you also should convert your opponent's pip count as well - another sign that you were not firing on all cylinders (English expression :-)). Thanks again for an entertaining and eductational video and 'Good Luck' in Sweden !!!

Right, I did not play well. Then, it's my skill. I have no excuese. What I did is what I did. 😉

Sorry, I need to rebuild the system to upload. 😅

34:42 I prefer the analysis to stay in sync with the plays. Then we can look at it (or not) when we choose. It is not hard simply not to look when we want to think about the position ourselves, but waiting for the reveal past the time we wish to see it is irritating, as is figuring out what play the current analysis refers to, or having the analysis you wish to see suddenly flash by in 1/10 second.

Thank you for the feedback. I found the problem at 34:42. It showed the wrong analysis (the opponent is on roll). I try to fix this kind of mistake in the future. 😅
