#suggestion Can we get some games from the Japanese Chess Championship. The Japanese IM won it all and he is the strongest player in Japan. He played a 6 Dan (Shogi Master) in one of his games. Very good. Thanks
That Qxf6 shirt makes me think of a t-shirt idea. I was thinking we need a t-shirt for the Rg6 move from the WCC with the game score up to that point. Was such a cool position.
I really like the Alapin here for white. Seems like a good way to force choice of opening, rather than give black the choice of their favorite Sicilian. As an amateur player with little time for study, that sort of thing is important.
The Alapin variation is my typical response to the Sicilian. I like how 2. c3 supports the next move for white 3. d4, controlling the center. What is the significance of Agadmator’s shirt Qxf6? Is it in reference to a specific game or something?
If queen takes the knight then the bishop will capture back the queen and if bishop captures the knight then white queen will take a full Black's queen.
As Black, I would rather Qxd1+ instead of Qc2. In the Qc2 line, white trades 1 queen against 2 rooks, plus a check to black's King which I believe is at a disadvantage for black.
Xanım Baladjaeva - is good player. She was best in her 3th board in olympiad in Georgia (if I rememeber corectly) in Azerbaijanian team. Other azerbaijanian player Gunel Mammadzada now playing perfekt in GP. Hi from Baku.
I exclusively play the Alapin against the Sicilian, avoids all the theory which I would never be able to memorize and I often get a solid position after just a few moves.
Could you explain why harsha would resign after 16 moves? As an intermediate player it’s difficult to envision a loss so early with so many pieces still on the board, thank you
I may be wrong, but if she draws or wins her final game I think she qualifies for a GM norm in this tournament. She's only 22 and should also get a decent rating boost to near 2400 after this tournament. So her chances at achieving GM at some point are looking pretty good, especially if she can maintain this level of play.
I've had my suspicion that too many GM's rely on rote memorization of certain lines. Then Balajayeva comes up with something new and the real chess player emerged victorious.
To many players now are only about the best engine move. Over the board that's no fun. plus more than half is psychological. Engine doesn't read body language etc
@@davidcarr9772 No, that was a joke about pawn to b4 being the best move in every position. It's an Agadmator meme. And the psychological impact of this move can't be over-estimated.
after Qxd1 white can play Qxd1 Rxd1 Kxd1 and white is up a clean knight and just a superior position ( b7/a7 hanging, 0 counterplay for black due to the queenside issues to fix )
Up a peace, and a pawn at the end of the line is probably to much of an advantage. Granted that she’s the lower rated player by almost 300 points it’s super impressive. I always wonder how grandmasters be losing games against lower rated opponents.? My perspective is that chess has not been figured out yet. I mean we have chess engines these days supercomputers that can predict the best moves and outcomes of a given position in a line. It’s still up to a human being to make those moves in a game played against another human. This is the reason I love chess. Like Hans just so happens to review a line Magnus plays before playing against him, and won by pure coincidence. If you underestimate your opponent, and fall into their preparation only playing with engine like precision might get you a draw.
Because IMs and GMs (and any decent player) actually calculate where the Q would go after Be3 to answer the question you pose instead of just saying things like, "black would have to keep running or lose the queen". You should too.
@@yzfool6639 after bishop to e3 no matter what square the queen moves to she can continually get threatened without having to trade queens is all I'm saying, that way white can continue to develop pieces while black struggle to keep their queen safe
the way you just blow through these five syllable names is lovely and so respectful to the fact that Chess has always been a sport for everyone. Reminds me of the great Liam Dutton: th-cam.com/video/fHxO0UdpoxM/w-d-xo.html
It's consistency though. Female GMs can have the odd great game against male GMs and win but over many games they have a losing score hence the rating disparity.
She's scored 5/8 against people who are 200-300 points higher than her, damn.
that just means that they actually aren't 200-300 points higher than her
with engine like precision.

Well-its easy to win against 2100 if you have 1900. But thats another level. Very impressive.

6:40 You don't want to move the rook away from the d file because Qc1 is annoying, but Qd2 is even more deadly :)
Indeed. Qd2 would be quite annoying ;)
Such exquisite timing of B4. Sublime.
I will first Like and then watch the whole game, like I do this Always. You are awesome.
I as well, it’s a process.
yes, i too
There are zero other TH-cam channels where I hit like even before it starts. ❤😊
That's what I do. Just posting a video gets a like.
I always like once I decide it’s a competent video. That being said we know what to expect with Aggy so he gets my life beforehand as well
Shoutout to asavis and ChessAdvisorDo, both Lichess 2200s, who, in 2021, played this exact game thru move 9. White (asavis) eventually triumphed… 👏🙏

Your shirt Agadmator, whqt position does Qxf6...been trying to imagine one
Nezhmetdinov vid, his most viewed video
Didn't Marshals golden game have Qxf6, or just Qf6 ?
That's three times out of three in agad's videos that I've failed to find the move "b4". I am a lost cause :)
Yet again, a game in chess history in which a queen comes out too soon and gets isolated on the edge of the board.
She’d be up two pieces in that last evaluation came back to watch again nice game the funny part when your Queen is in danger of being captured what should you do of course attack their Queen very interesting Game Thanks Antonio

I really like the Alapin here for white. Seems like a good way to force choice of opening, rather than give black the choice of their favorite Sicilian. As an amateur player with little time for study, that sort of thing is important.
Closed Sicilian and Alapin are both good for doing that.. Don't let black get the game he wants. ;)

Great game.
#suggestion - please check Ljubojevic - Padevsky 1974, Nice Olympiad. Quite nice game.
4:00 how does that protect the knight? can't black just take?
If queen takes the knight then the bishop will capture back the queen and if bishop captures the knight then white queen will take a full Black's queen.
Take what? The knight is attacked 2 times and defended 3 times
@@masonskiekonto590 yea if bishop takes then he hangs queen and if queen takes then we recapture back with our bishop and we are up material
Great showing
what a game! wow.
6:08 Why not Rd7, a5, Rd5, Rd5?
Black’s response to the opening almost seems like he was playing single move chess 😅
Yeah, that's My downfall(single layer so to speak).
at the 6:30 mark, wouldn't black take the rook with the queen with check and be the one picking up the white queen?
then Qxd1 Rxd1 Kxd1. White is up a piece anyway.
White is up a knight at the end anyway no? Qxd1 Qxd1 Rxd1 Kxd1
@@jolly_roger2yes but white is already up a knight to begin with, I guess black wants to keep the queen to maybe have some chances
@@hutonghustler5317 ofc that's the whole point, if you were already down material you don't trade queens, Qc2 keeps position tricky

Very creative. I intuitively knew it was b4 but couldn't figure out all of the following lines..

Hi,
Thanks for your awesome analyses.
When I go full screen on my phone I don’t see the first rank. Just an FYI.
What does your Qxf6 T shirt signify?
why Qa6 and not Qa4? in the line you showed, you did not calculate QXd1+ which seems winning, no?
