    I loved to watch GM Finegold commentate the Junior Closed Championships both this year and last year. Awonder played very well in both events. The videos are up on this youtube channel and I recommend them for fans of GM Finegold or Awonder Liang. I'm disappointed this may be the last GM Finegold video for a few months but thanks for all the great videos so far!

  • @shottysteve
    @shottysteve 7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I don't get the always repeat joke- is it so the movecount goes higher and they get to a time control thing (so they get more time)?

    • @ClassicMist360
      @ClassicMist360 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      shottysteve the way i interpret it is, if you repeat once or twice, it gives your opponent the opportunity to make a terrible move rather than just repeat.

    • @betterbelle29
      @betterbelle29 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ClassicMist360 Pretty much what it is. I've had it happen to someone. They refused to draw cause they were up an exchange so they got mated. I've also done the same thing against a lower rated player while down an exchange (I went down the exchange for the draw and decided against it and lost lol)

    • @avgbilly
      @avgbilly 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      You also get a psychological advantage -I guess- by stop repeating, meaning that you go for the win
