    Crazy game: check
    Dubov is playing: check
    Rapid game: check

    Your commentary is extremely helpful. I was questioning two moves, and you answered them directly. i) Why Dubov's king shouldn't have captured his bishop on d3 (but rather use his pawn) and ii) Why he used his "a" rook to attack the g7 pawn. Your ability to recognize these moves as instructional points is what makes you such a great commentator. Thank you Agadmator!

    If someone told Dubov prior to moving his rook, "YOU HAVE A FORCED MATE IF YOU MAKE THE RIGHT MOVE!" He'd find the winning move, and he'd do so quickly.
