Yes, I have become a much better player by absorbing principles agadmator mentions repeatedly. Push passed pawns, position rooks behind passed pawns, get rooks on 7th rank, control open files, position bishops on strong diagonals, trade out bad bishops, don't trade bishops when the board is open, etc.
I'm going to be honest, you have been hands down the best streamer for chess related content. Your videos explain it in a way that novice players could feel comfortable in the game. Whether its because of youtube algorithms or your own understanding, you have consistently made me interested in the game beyond my nostalgic feelings..
We're watching the evolution of the hood right before our eyes! Yesterday: Mr. Hoodie Boy Today: Mr. Hoodie Guy Tomorrow: Mr Hoodie Man? Only Agad and father time know what the future holds.
Mr. Lopez Martinez could be Roberto, Ricardo , Raul, Rene, Romualdo, Reinaldo, Remigio, etc. the name Ruy is very rare in the Spanish language since a long long time ago.
@@radesk I believe he mutes his speakers since he records the sound of pieces moving directly from the computer with his capturing software. Otherwise you whould hear the sound of the pieces double.
I think you should expand upon the idea of wearing a hoodie for the hoodie- guy games. I'd like to suggest that whenever you analyze a game that features checkmate via Knight, you should wear a full medieval knight helm, preferably with a ridiculously large plume on top.
The great Capa in my country Argentina!! I've never met anyone named Ruy. I think that name hasn't been used in centuries. It doesn't even 'sound' spanish. Probably Roberto, Ricardo or Raul, same as Capablanca.
The computer likes a6 because it anticipates playing the white side, and knows what it will play. Capablanca doesn't like a6 because he's playing the white side and knows what he will play.
I don't know what R stands for but his last mane in Lopez. Martinez is his mother's maiden name. Is common on Latin countries to use both names your father and mother. For example Capablanca in Cuba will be referred as Jose Raul Capablanca y Graupera. Two names and two last names.
@Aniket Dey Sarkar there are lot of attacking game other than Tal. But I don't know why agad stopped showing exciting games every now an then. He didn't even showed a game with Fried Liver attack or Latvian gambit
Rodrigo "Ruy" López de Segura (c. 1530 - c. 1580) was a Spanish chess player, author, and Catholic priest whose 1561 treatise Libro de la invención liberal y Arte del juego del Axedrez was one of the first books about modern chess in Europe. He made great contributions to chess opening theory, including in the King's Gambit and the Ruy López (or Spanish) opening that bears his name.[1] López was also the strongest player in Spain for about 20 years.[2]
Ruy Lopez Martinez vs Jose Raul Capablanca, August 22, 1914 exhibition game in Buenos Aires. www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1645118 It is indeed, that R. Lopez Martinez.
@agadmator, there is a consultation game from 1911 available on chessgames between one Raul Lopez Martinez and Valentin F Coria vs Capablanca and Emilio Carranza. Might be the same gentleman.
Black did not play Rf8 because it was 1914 and the phones has simply discharged. Batteries were much weaker then. Up to that point he used stockfish, as mentioned a6 is engine's first line. Re7 seems to be the first move made on his own and he went downhill
Rodrigo (Ruy) Lopez de Segura, the one that gave name to the chess opening lived around 1500 AC.- he was a priest. Dr. Raul Lopez Martinez (Dr in medicine), the one on this analisis, was an Argentinian chess player who according to chess history was a player in "Club Argentino" (argentinian chess club). According to Roberto Grau on his book "Tratado general de Ajedrez" Mr martinez ended out being a missing person due to political conflict. From Juan Manuel Rivarola autobiography , Dr Raul Lopez Martinez was exiled to France where he frequented the famous "Cafe de la Regence". According to this biography he lived there as one of the first Plastic Surgeons in the world. The rest of Mr Lopez history is unknown to me or my research skills. You may find 3 games on the database, 2 of those are played in teams against Capablanca. one as a consultation game also of that tournament in 1914, and another consultation game from 1911.- www.chessgames.com/perl/chess.pl?yearcomp=le&year=1915&playercomp=either&pid=&player=Lopez&pid2=&player2=&movescomp=exactly&moves=&opening=&eco=&result=
I got a question. I went to my first chess club meeting and noticed the ridiculous amount of time we had (we had 90 minutes i usually play 3 min on lichess) and how long it was taking for opponents to move. When I look at these match's that the agadmator shows it didnt strike me that they might take a while to make move. Do GM's take a while to make their brilliant moves or do they move fast?
Most of the absolute brilliancies come from Classical time format. The one where you have ages to make a move. However Blitz games require severe calculations in a small amount of time, so thats also impressive
#suggestion please do a game where the main line of the scotch opening is played, but preferably not the one Magnus played. Have alteady seen that game
R Lopez Martinez is almost certainly Raul Lopez Martinez See these notes from the Argentine newspaper La Nación www.ara.org.ar/chs/ajedrez/sharp.html It´s interesting to see that those notes from the newspaper include a reference in 19/12/1918 about plans to hold a World Championship match between Lasker and Capablanca at the Argentine Chess Club in Buenos Aires, if funds could be raised.
There is another game "between Martínez and Capablanca" in the database, from 1911, again in Argentina. It's a consultation game between Raul Lopez Martinez / Valentin F Coria (white) and Jose Raul Capablanca / Emilio Carranza (black). In that game R. Lopez Martínez actually plays the Ruy Lopez, and loses. www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1431010
How these guys were aware of "chess news" without public radio ? on very rare international chess journal maybe ? Anyway, a nice mysterious game; thank you agadmator
Marshall played capablanca many times in between 1910-1918.For example the the St perersburg 1914, match in 1910 etc so why he saved the famous #marshall_attack for 8 years & played in 1918 against capablanca???!!! #agadmator #suggestion #enquiry
#suggestion - I don't know if you've already featured this game, seeing you have many Kasparov games. But may I suggest this one game of his that I found in a Chess Ebook App. it is Kasparov vs Pribyl (1980). Check the game out in www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1069896 It is a typical "Kasparov" game that exemplifies the core importance of a passed pawn.
#suggestion Game played between Magnus Carlsen and Anish Giri under #MoveForEquality where Black player started the game for the first time in history of chess.
Cap beats you and then tells you if only you hadn't done such and such move you wouldve beat me. It's bad enough to lose but then he points out how you could've won just to rub it in.
and here even though we don't know if capablanca is playing against a gentleman named Ruy Lopez he avoids to play Ruy Lopez against Mr. R Lopez😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love how you repeatedly reference important principles and ideas- this is one strong sign of an excellent teacher! Thank you for your channel!

He avoids playing the Ruy Lopez made me laugh XD
In Hooper & Brandreth's The Unknown Capablanca we see JRC's opponent's full name. R = Raul.
I believe that in Spanish "R" is the abbreviation for "Dolores Delano", but you may be correct as well 😂😂😂

I always calculate the race between pawn and the king. The square is a neat trick. Thanks!
Ruy Lopez was born in 1530 and Capablanca in 1888. If this was indeed Ruy Lopez, we'd have much more to worry about than just the strongest moves ;)
For all you know, the could be playing against you in chess.com under a pseudo name.
Mr. Lopez Martinez could be Roberto, Ricardo , Raul, Rene, Romualdo, Reinaldo, Remigio, etc. the name Ruy is very rare in the Spanish language since a long long time ago.
His name was Rodrigo. Ruy was a nickname.
First tought was R. Lopez means Ruy Lopez de Segovia. Then... what? :)

I guessed the right play at 12:58 almost immediately and now I feel like a grandmaster

Mr. Eto'ofish that’s how i feel anytime i get it right hah

The computer likes a6 because it anticipates playing the white side, and knows what it will play. Capablanca doesn't like a6 because he's playing the white side and knows what he will play.

the R. Lopez is just this hoodigentlemans IRL nickname, due to the fact that he always played that opening. Just as we should call you "B4 Agadmator"!
