Alpha: *E4* Agad: A very nice move by alpha taking control of the d5 and f5 square but also threatening mate in 127 and what do you do here as black? You could go E5 but that would lose you the game immediately. So, this is move 1 and in this position, Stockfish.. resigned..the..game.
We are getting closer and closer to "solving" the game of chess as a single puzzle: "White to move and win". Either there is a solution to this, or, if not, then the "puzzle" would be, against each of the 12 possible first moves by white: "Black to move and draw".
If I had the money I would hire two actors (with *very* good memories) to go into a chess club and play a few games from this match-up. Hidden cameras would record spectators' reactions.
It`d be way easier to give them some sort of hints. Like notes in the phones, small papers they could look into unnoticed, etc., so they would have to memorize only the late game when possibly some attention is already drawn

Nice to see your channel grow. I've played chess from 6 to 14 years old, when my teacher had to move back to Argentina.

Thank you so much for sharing your passion, you've helped me a lot :)
Every time I watch a game between Stockfish and AlphaZero I feel like I’m watching another episode of Black Mirror. The crushing inevitably of Alpha slowly constricting poor Stockfish and Stockfish trying in vain to escape is depressing.

Agadmator, thank you so much for analysing these games. As a chess enthusiast with an interest in AI, it's so incredible to see these games. Engine vs. engine games are usually somewhat dull and opaque, yet these are sharp and exciting.
This AI (her, she, or other nomenclature) seems to love constricting her opponents development. She is so good at it that it becomes totally obvious that this strategy is really productive, even at material expense, (she is not going to 'overlook' tactical spongs that us humans have to endure) that if only we could actually perceive her depth at this tactic we'd be halfway good at this damn game.
This shows the difference of knowledge vs intelligence where Stockfish is knowledge and may know many positions and can see much further ahead and AlphaZero is intelligent and can understand the mechanics of where pieces are and how that relates to strategy.
At 13:10, just after white Rxb8, why doesn't black Rxc6 instead of Rxb8, eliminating the white queen, and saving the fork that loses the second rook. Am I missing something?
dear agadmator, first off, thanks for bringing chess back into my life! I enjoy your videos a lot! now i could do some research, but i think its okay to rely on the vast knowledge of all the wonderful subscribers and you, of course: -can you say how many grandmasters there are in the world? -how many grandmasters (or chess players) can afford a living through playing chess? -what does it take to become a grandmaster? -more or less, how much money do the top 10 chess players make through tournament winnings or similar? thanks for taking your time! cheers from germany
Knight to d7 at 3:34 threatens the bishop at C5 to make space for the C6 pawn. I plugged this into the engine on lichess and it also suggested this move. Strange that this wasn't mentioned
@@xCorvus7x Stockfish is good .. Alpha is Greatest. Stockfish have been programmed by human, while Alpha have been programming itself a million times faster.
Supercomputer games are just cool. I want to be able to actually see how the game is evolving because of them, but considering idk where it came from I'm not exactly sure how it's changing lol. Your videos are great because you have the knowledge to both understand these moves but also you can still be amazed by them, which is great to see. It's funny, I like both your pogchamps breakdowns and your supercomputer breakdowns.
STOCKFISH CAN WIN!!! Marko Malj gave a good surprise sollution... I will just copy paste: Marko Malj prije 1 mjesec at 9:02 as I see it, knight should move to d5 and this is winning move for Stockfish, wonder how it's not considered because it is a nice suprise, so far as I could calculate the moves, but, looks like it is the way to beat AlphaZero in this game
Yes, white will play Rb7+ and force the gaining of materials. If black plays Rxb7, white can respond with Qxb7+ and forcing the king to the back rank and white will skewer the rook with Qb8+
7:35 What if instead h4 white plays Qxf4 followed by exf4, Bg6 check, Kd8, Rxe6. I am too lazy to offer a continuation for black to this, but wouldn't it be slightly unconfortable for black even if the queen basically was given for a knight and bishop? Just to prevent the king from going to f7.
Just a question if someone can help me: at 14:48, what happens if 32... e4 instead of Qxe3 ? If 33 Qxd3 then exd3 and you have 2 nice passed pawns on c2 and d3. And you have a lots of threats.
It sacrifices pawns , forces the opponent to lose an exchange or a piece entirely , heads into the endgame , and demonstrates that a piece is better than 2 or 3 extra pawns.
In one line of analysis of alternatives to 24. ... Nd3 at 13:08 you show black Rc8 followed by RxRb8 followed but RxRb8 but shouldn't black instead play RxQc6? So the only good move is 24. ...Qd5
on the flip side tho, a lot of these games demonstrate that a0 values its own bishops quite a lot. perhaps it's not the piece itself, but what you do with it that makes the difference.
I'm pretty new to chess, but I'm confused why knight d5 is off the table at 12:00. This blocks off queen to c7 and all I could see coming from white is bishop to e4 or rook to d1, which black could follow with rook to c8. I ~eagerly~ await your insight
Probably white will play Rb7+, and after Rxb7 Qxb7+, black king is forced to the back rank and then white skewers the rook with Qb8+. Note that the g6 and h7 squares are controlled by white's strong light square bishop on c2, and this makes the combination works.
As a Greek, the quote of Aristotle makes me very proud and people can realize that his philosophical view is something that can be used for multiple objects.Even chess.
In 13:09 after the white rook eliminates the black one on the b-file, why not take the white queen by the black one on the c-file? Isnt this better than taking the white rook?
at 9:02 as I see it, knight should move to d5 and this is winning move for Stockfish, wonder how it's not considered because it is a nice suprise, so far as I could calculate the moves, but, looks like it is the way to beat AlphaZero in this game
A double gambit - this is absolutely amazing! I remember some 5 years ago an engine (I forgot which) surprisingly played an unorthodox gambit and got a great position for the pawn with the opposite pieces rendered "mere spectators" (the words of the commentator). In the meantime, until Alpha Zero appeared on the scene, I think that didn't happen much (sb. correct me).
around ten minutes mark, I started to think: this is just a challenge between computers. the stronger will win. these moves simply surpass our immediate understanding. it is interesting and at the same time useless. unless your opponent is a caruana, I mean, a computer ...
Question about this version of Stockfish. How does it compare with the version of Stockfish on Lichess? I play Stockfish there every day on its level 5, I on white always, and avoid defeat at most 1 time in 10. Is there any comparison between the Stockfish in this video and the one on Lichess?
The engine that you play against on Lichess when you select "play with the computer" is not Stockfish, its "Fairy-Stockfish", an engine derived from Stockfish designed to support multiple chess variants. And even when you select the level 8 it's very limited. If I recall correctly it's limited to 1 second of thinking and 22 depth.
@@-zelda- I appreciate your taking the time to explain that to me, because I'd been trying to get an explanation of what "Fairy Stockfish" is and how it relates to the supercomputer Stockfish. So it's a dumbed-down version. If you find it easy to beat, you must be pretty darned good! I've been playing several games a day on level 5 for two years and am stalled there, winning or drawing half my games (and always playing white). Its knight play is astounding, if I don't remove both of its knights within 15 moves I'm going to take an L for sure. It easily breaks through defensive positions I thought were impregnable. It does have one blatant flaw, which accounts for nearly all my wins. It doesn't worry enough about my passed pawns until it's too late. By the time it realizes it's in deep trouble, it's so late that it has to give up a piece to prevent the passed pawn from queening. Then I just trade down and queen multiple pawns. It's also obsessed with taking any undefended pawn or piece, and I've learned that if I deliberately leave an inessential pawn or piece undefended, it will go after those pieces singlemindedly while I am pushing my pawn to the 7th rank. My wins all follow the same formula, capitalizing on these two inherent flaws. One other flaw is that it is overly aggressive for Black. Sure, many games its aggression cleans my clock. But on many occasions we have a very closed position that is an obvious draw, and it insists on sacrificing a pawn or even a piece to open it back up. But those aren't the type of sacrifices throw the other side into a deadly trap. It's a pointless sacrifice, giving up material simply to open up a drawn game. I've won lots of games against it by locking the position down in trench warfare, and once it hands me the material advantage then I just trade down to the endgame. So it has its flaws, but it does detect the minutest of weaknesses that I didn't even realize existed. And its knight play is better than any human I've ever played.
I found the bishop c5 move but didnt realise how good it really was until you explained it. I was quite proud that i made such a good move without knowing it. XD
@13:09 why would black take the rook c8b8, instead of taking on the queen c8c6? i think this is an advantage for black, and the appropriate response to rook b1b8
Hi I had this thought, im most certain that this is simply not allowed/ illegal but what if you have the situation to move a pinned piece so that its checkmate and thus no next move for the opponent to capture?
Simple answer: It is always illegal to make a move that puts or leaves you in check. You can think about it this way: With checkmate the game is actually cut short by one last move where the king is captured. This makes sense, since per definition the king can't be saved, so why keep playing? If you however deliver checkmate while putting yourself in check, that means your opponent would get to take your king before you could reach that unplayed turn, so you lose.
Nice chess channel. I really enjoyed your analysis on chess games. One thing I don't like about your videos is that seeing you fixing that mic in some videos. I hope you make a note on your desk reminding you to fix the mic before making videos.

If you are wondering why the black rook can't capture the white queen at 13:10 that's because Rf8 would be checkmate
Thank you

Those Alpha vs. Stockfish games shown here are always really exciting and spectacular! When I've seen one I'm already looking forward to the next one!
13:06 why not capturing the Queen with the rock? Seems like stockfish would win
Mahdi Valiyev yea saw that too. Think agad blundered there. Looked through comments if someone realized it as well
Capturing the queen with the rook is a blunder because Rf8 will be checkmate. The g6 square is guarded by the bishop.
Rf8 Checkmate

Agadmator, thank you so much for analysing these games. As a chess enthusiast with an interest in AI, it's so incredible to see these games. Engine vs. engine games are usually somewhat dull and opaque, yet these are sharp and exciting.
13:18 Knight to D5? Maybe it's my headache, but I can't figure out why this move isn't being considered?
Maybe because of rook to b7+ rxb7 qxb7+ kg8 qb8+ kf7 and qxh8 probably not sure if this is the best but i at least get and exchange
wow, so early the high quality didn't even get properly initialized yet
13:09 I am missing something or white after b8 should loose Queen...?
If black captures the queen, rook to f8 is checkmate for white
@@UnknownMagician93 yup...you are right...thx
This AI (her, she, or other nomenclature) seems to love constricting her opponents development. She is so good at it that it becomes totally obvious that this strategy is really productive, even at material expense, (she is not going to 'overlook' tactical spongs that us humans have to endure) that if only we could actually perceive her depth at this tactic we'd be halfway good at this damn game.
Yeah! Its like she captures pieces without having to capture
This shows the difference of knowledge vs intelligence where Stockfish is knowledge and may know many positions and can see much further ahead and AlphaZero is intelligent and can understand the mechanics of where pieces are and how that relates to strategy.
Cant you switch the meaning of both therms and the phrase is still coherent?
At 13:10, just after white Rxb8, why doesn't black Rxc6 instead of Rxb8, eliminating the white queen, and saving the fork that loses the second rook. Am I missing something?
next move, white rook to F8... Checkmate
@@davidsteele4246 Thanks
dear agadmator,
first off, thanks for bringing chess back into my life! I enjoy your videos a lot!
now i could do some research, but i think its okay to rely on the vast knowledge of all the wonderful subscribers and you, of course:
-can you say how many grandmasters there are in the world?
-how many grandmasters (or chess players) can afford a living through playing chess?
-what does it take to become a grandmaster?
-more or less, how much money do the top 10 chess players make through tournament winnings or similar?
thanks for taking your time!
cheers from germany
Alpha Zero keeps making sushi out of Stockfish.
In 13:11 if white rook captures black rook after other black rook can to captures black queen don't have to captures white rook
White rook to F8, Checkmate
Beautiful lesson and demonstration thank you very much
Knight to d7 at 3:34 threatens the bishop at C5 to make space for the C6 pawn. I plugged this into the engine on lichess and it also suggested this move. Strange that this wasn't mentioned
I am the best !
Then play Stockfish 10 at full power (with all opening books and whatnot).
i, for one, welcome our new artificial intelligence overlord. if i may be of service, just speak.
@@xCorvus7x Stockfish is good .. Alpha is Greatest.

Supercomputer games are just cool. I want to be able to actually see how the game is evolving because of them, but considering idk where it came from I'm not exactly sure how it's changing lol. Your videos are great because you have the knowledge to both understand these moves but also you can still be amazed by them, which is great to see. It's funny, I like both your pogchamps breakdowns and your supercomputer breakdowns.
STOCKFISH CAN WIN!!! Marko Malj gave a good surprise sollution... I will just copy paste:

at 9:02 as I see it, knight should move to d5 and this is winning move for Stockfish, wonder how it's not considered because it is a nice suprise, so far as I could calculate the moves, but, looks like it is the way to beat AlphaZero in this game
5:07 I don't understand why Stockfish there doesn't simply play Nd7,c5, and 0-0?What am I missing?
alpha make things too heard at the end , I really enjoy it thank you so much
I like your AlphaZero vids the most. It's because of your videos a year that I became a fan of AlphaZero!!
#suggestion alexander alekhine vs efim bogoljuebov, 1921, The triple queen sacrifice.
at 13:20 why Nd3 and not Nd5? It would take the c7 square from black or am I missing a tactic?
Yes, white will play Rb7+ and force the gaining of materials. If black plays Rxb7, white can respond with Qxb7+ and forcing the king to the back rank and white will skewer the rook with Qb8+
Thanks.
The line I want to hear from Agad:

Here Alpha Zero Resigned The Game..
can you imagine the brilliancy the next generation of chess computers will have?
We will not hear such a line for a very long time. And I'm okay with that. Watching Alpha Zero demolish everything is fun.
"My bishop pair will always bring about your destruction."
--AlphaZero
15. Bc5
That was brilliant... Using one piece to basically tie up all the queen-side pieces
7:35 What if instead h4 white plays Qxf4 followed by exf4, Bg6 check, Kd8, Rxe6. I am too lazy to offer a continuation for black to this, but wouldn't it be slightly unconfortable for black even if the queen basically was given for a knight and bishop? Just to prevent the king from going to f7.
Just a question if someone can help me: at 14:48, what happens if 32... e4 instead of Qxe3 ?
If 33 Qxd3 then exd3 and you have 2 nice passed pawns on c2 and d3. And you have a lots of threats.
At 12:12 why not Nd5 protecting the c7 square?
It's all fun and games until Alphazero ALLOWS Stockfish to win out of sympathy.
At 5:09 why can’t stock fish play knight to d7, attacking the bishop and when the bishop moves you can play pawn to c5 and castle ?
It sacrifices pawns , forces the opponent to lose an exchange or a piece entirely , heads into the endgame , and demonstrates that a piece is better than 2 or 3 extra pawns.
In one line of analysis of alternatives to 24. ... Nd3 at 13:08 you show black Rc8 followed by RxRb8 followed but RxRb8 but shouldn't black instead play RxQc6? So the only good move is 24. ...Qd5
The way A0 marginalizes bishops is making it look like we have been overvaluing bishops all these years.
on the flip side tho, a lot of these games demonstrate that a0 values its own bishops quite a lot. perhaps it's not the piece itself, but what you do with it that makes the difference.
at 13:11 minute of the video .. why couldn't black capture the queen after wight takes on b8
Rf8 is checkmate.
I'm pretty new to chess, but I'm confused why knight d5 is off the table at 12:00. This blocks off queen to c7 and all I could see coming from white is bishop to e4 or rook to d1, which black could follow with rook to c8.
I ~eagerly~ await your insight
Probably white will play Rb7+, and after Rxb7 Qxb7+, black king is forced to the back rank and then white skewers the rook with Qb8+. Note that the g6 and h7 squares are controlled by white's strong light square bishop on c2, and this makes the combination works.
13:10 can someone explain what happens if after alphaS Rxb8 stockfish captures queen Rxc6 instead of whiteS rook?
As a Greek, the quote of Aristotle makes me very proud and people can realize that his philosophical view is something that can be used for multiple objects.Even chess.
13:06
if the white b1 rook captures the rook on b8 why cant the black c8 rook capture the white queen?
because if what you said happened then white can play rook f8 checkmate
I never knew TH-cam did this.. i had to subscribe again, but i watch almost every video
But do they also have to work knight shift?
In 10:21 can't the white bishop take the rook b1 and give back material or am i just being stupid ?
We make the machines fight for us like this...imagine what they will make us do when they're in power
3:46 Wouldn't Nd7 kick away the bishop and let you push the pawn?
Edit: 13:10 what of Rxc6? I don't see what mating net white can manage out of this.
Rf8#
Thank you aga, i just won my school chess tournament and i am only playing for about 3 months.
Your videos are the best
In 13:09 after the white rook eliminates the black one on the b-file, why not take the white queen by the black one on the c-file? Isnt this better than taking the white rook?
becouse rf8 mate :)
at 9:02 as I see it, knight should move to d5 and this is winning move for Stockfish, wonder how it's not considered because it is a nice suprise, so far as I could calculate the moves, but, looks like it is the way to beat AlphaZero in this game
A double gambit - this is absolutely amazing! I remember some 5 years ago an engine (I forgot which) surprisingly played an unorthodox gambit and got a great position for the pawn with the opposite pieces rendered "mere spectators" (the words of the commentator). In the meantime, until Alpha Zero appeared on the scene, I think that didn't happen much (sb. correct me).
Amazing game, & I've been watching every video on your channel. Do you play in tournaments often?
12:59, isn't knight to d5 a good idea??
I think yes
nice video thanks. What is the name of the chess program you use ?
Halfway through the next video, I want to see you shake your head and utter the line “and here, AlphaZero blunders”.
12:04 Silly question what if black took that knight and Stockfish moved D5?
*One of the few games*
Where Alpha kind of struggles
13:10 why wouldn't the black rook take the White Queen am I missing something please explain.
White rook to F8, Checkmate
Hello, im wondering why it isnt possible to bring the Knight from f3 to d5 so it guards the queen check at c7 ?
At 13:20 instead of knight to D3 why not move rook from b8 to c8 attacking the queen and bishop and protected by your other rook?
around ten minutes mark, I started to think: this is just a challenge between computers. the stronger will win. these moves simply surpass our immediate understanding. it is interesting and at the same time useless. unless your opponent is a caruana, I mean, a computer ...
6:18 - I felt my pulse quicken when I saw c3 pawn tried to move directly to e1 to become a queen
At 12:00 why would black playing knight d5 be a bad move?
Question about this version of Stockfish. How does it compare with the version of Stockfish on Lichess? I play Stockfish there every day on its level 5, I on white always, and avoid defeat at most 1 time in 10. Is there any comparison between the Stockfish in this video and the one on Lichess?
The engine that you play against on Lichess when you select "play with the computer" is not Stockfish, its "Fairy-Stockfish", an engine derived from Stockfish designed to support multiple chess variants.
And even when you select the level 8 it's very limited. If I recall correctly it's limited to 1 second of thinking and 22 depth.
@@-zelda- I appreciate your taking the time to explain that to me, because I'd been trying to get an explanation of what "Fairy Stockfish" is and how it relates to the supercomputer Stockfish. So it's a dumbed-down version. If you find it easy to beat, you must be pretty darned good! I've been playing several games a day on level 5 for two years and am stalled there, winning or drawing half my games (and always playing white). Its knight play is astounding, if I don't remove both of its knights within 15 moves I'm going to take an L for sure. It easily breaks through defensive positions I thought were impregnable.
It does have one blatant flaw, which accounts for nearly all my wins. It doesn't worry enough about my passed pawns until it's too late. By the time it realizes it's in deep trouble, it's so late that it has to give up a piece to prevent the passed pawn from queening. Then I just trade down and queen multiple pawns. It's also obsessed with taking any undefended pawn or piece, and I've learned that if I deliberately leave an inessential pawn or piece undefended, it will go after those pieces singlemindedly while I am pushing my pawn to the 7th rank. My wins all follow the same formula, capitalizing on these two inherent flaws.
One other flaw is that it is overly aggressive for Black. Sure, many games its aggression cleans my clock. But on many occasions we have a very closed position that is an obvious draw, and it insists on sacrificing a pawn or even a piece to open it back up. But those aren't the type of sacrifices throw the other side into a deadly trap. It's a pointless sacrifice, giving up material simply to open up a drawn game. I've won lots of games against it by locking the position down in trench warfare, and once it hands me the material advantage then I just trade down to the endgame.
So it has its flaws, but it does detect the minutest of weaknesses that I didn't even realize existed. And its knight play is better than any human I've ever played.
After black plays Rc8, white needs to move Rb7+. The took capture you show would allow blank to take the white queen, right?
This is definitely the best chess channel on the planet, and maybe even in the Universe! Merry Christmas! :)
I found the bishop c5 move but didnt realise how good it really was until you explained it. I was quite proud that i made such a good move without knowing it. XD
15:32 - Why doesn't Stockfish play Kd3?
I like the moment when it comes naturally and you say 'sorry about that'... So please don't fix it otherwise I am gonna miss this...
@13:09 why would black take the rook c8b8, instead of taking on the queen c8c6? i think this is an advantage for black, and the appropriate response to rook b1b8
Immediate mate for white is not an advantage for black.
@@cinquine1 lol whoops... didn't think that one thru entirely!
Your content is amazing. Keep up the good work. Cheers and Marry Christmas!
Hi I had this thought, im most certain that this is simply not allowed/ illegal but what if you have the situation to move a pinned piece so that its checkmate and thus no next move for the opponent to capture?
Simple answer: It is always illegal to make a move that puts or leaves you in check.
You can think about it this way: With checkmate the game is actually cut short by one last move where the king is captured. This makes sense, since per definition the king can't be saved, so why keep playing? If you however deliver checkmate while putting yourself in check, that means your opponent would get to take your king before you could reach that unplayed turn, so you lose.
Nice chess channel. I really enjoyed your analysis on chess games.
One thing I don't like about your videos is that seeing you fixing that mic in some videos. I hope you make a note on your desk reminding you to fix the mic before making videos.
Are there Thirts with a quote about the Evans gambit?
At 3:06, shouldn't the move be Qa5 ? Attacking the bishop, guarding the pass pawn, preventing Bc5 & allowing black to play c5

Rf8 checkmate :)
@@xthemugshot thx mate
13:08 after rook takes b8 the other rook won't take b8, it would just simply kill queen on c6 and black would be up the exchange would it not?
If black takes the queen, then white plays Rf8 and it is mate.
