I appreciate all the lessons over the years, 👑

[@Aphixx]

Way more interesting endgame than I expected

[@kmarasin]

Fabi generated a ton of play in an innocuous looking position. Super GMs amaze me.
In hindsight this is all because White's King is basically trapped on the kingside until black is ready to promote.

Posting first is shallow and pedantic, but I'm doing it anyway.

[@daveburr5650]

"helping out the channel tremendously!"

[@jorgemontero6384]

I have two passed pawns, one for each of you

[@xitvono]

never play f3, unless it's the best move.

[@mmgubin]

Great video

[@andsviat]

f3 by black was an obvious move, but d4 was not obvious. Cool endgame.

[@SanyaJuutilainen]

5 minutes from "take two", great!

[@beeble2003]

For those of you who are slow, like me, after 1... Rd1, the threat is 2... Rd4 3.Ba1 Ra4 4.Bb2 Ra2, winning the bishop.

[@lordjaraxxus3864]

always play f3+

[@douglaslarosa8782]

Why does the twoo-teeth-promoting trick seem majestic here but when I do I feel dirty and sneaky for winning like that? Super GMs are something else

[@itodobien1396]

F6 gang
