Akiba's pieces always seem to be in the right place at the right time. Genius. Thank's Mato.

[@danielbatista8760]

Losing is still painfull

[@beforeanythingijustwanttos6253]

I always love these videos they make me a better player

[@ChessMasteryOfficial]

You may learn much more from a game you lose than from a game you win. You will have to lose hundreds of games before becoming a good player.

[@bclaytz]

I'm well on my way to becoming a GM then 😂

[@iandehmel]

Thanks for all the videos Mato! Stuck inside, great time to look for Killer Moves :)

[@ulftellander6303]

Thank you Mato, for reviewing a game from my little town!

[@dv-artistdavidv.828]

very nice game - thx.

[@cristhianroger]

Qué bien analizado! Ni siquiera necesito hablar tu idioma para entender el por qué de las variantes expuestas. ¡Excelente trabajo como siempre, Mato!. Saludos, Maestro.

[@KW-vm5fc]

The manner in which White's piece play exerts more and more control is very instructive and worth study as Maroczy was a solid player.

[@denizgoksel8791]

Amazing creative moves by Rubinstein

[@preachtheword1689]

Akiba was a positional genius. Placing his pieces on the right squares and just playing simple chess. Putting pressure on the attack until his opponent collapses.

[@azhar8803]

very nice attack

[@DanielEscovedo]

What a wonderful game!

[@Brian3xm]

Beautiful game!!!

[@paul_ralte]

[@pankajpitroda2070]

[@venkateswararao9837]

[@betulaobscura]

[@HollyMartins]

[@simonlepine7765]

Wow !

[@cmr9928]

Speed 0.75 for Mato's video

[@kareemosman3064]

I love this guys brain.

[@KillberZomL4D42494]

Icy attack, damn great.

[@gerardfeisvuc1241]

And that's my akiba's breakfast :D ...

[@prakasavigraha6104]

What is it that Akiba avoided ? IQP ???

[@DavidLee-jg5uk]

IQP = isolated Queen’s pawn

[@prakasavigraha6104]

@@DavidLee-jg5uk Thanks David. Bit new to all this.

[@silviusaran]

At move 33, instead of Rf8, why not Rce7?

[@azroualhassan8963]

Hi Mato why dont you change the bord?

[@fantasip]

First. Not😐

[@MatoJelic]

Well done Fanta
