Wonderful that the internet allows for these kinds of match ups that would have been impossible in other times. Exciting to get to see new talent on a world stage.
Being obsessed with holding on to the bishop pair can be costly. She totally controlled most of the game with her knights while Dubov was just concerned about keeping his bishops.
Ya dont understand why people try to hold on to bishops at any cost. The bishop may be a superior piece to a knight but its not worth getting into an inferior position, just to avoid trading a bishop for a knight. Its only minutely better than a knight and only when there are no heavy pieces involved. Otherwise knight works better with a rook or a queen or even another bishop.
I was thinking that @Mohammad Baraka but I don't think he ever had a chance to trade the knight for the h pawn. I'm guess he would have gone for that, last chance,... test how good they are with knight and bishop.
8:34 "And of course you all know that you can mate with a bishop and a knight." Wrong, Agad. I know that good players can mate with a bishop and a knight.
Vaishali is coming into the limelight... It won't be too long before she stakes her claim and says "Praggu is smaller than me, everything he knows I taught him"...
Very nice game, thanks. I loved that they played almost to the bitter end, cause at their level I think it is not very common to see a player piece down and in this horrible position to continue playing this endgame. A resignation comes some kind before, at least that's what I think. I am not judging of course, there are cases that, if there is not a very advanced player around to explain all ideas, or an engine giving the force d moves etc,, I can see a player resigning and I haven't even understood why, lol. Maybe white tried to play against time, maybe, maybe..
2nd comment: 5:06 endgame begins #suggestion Agad, I think it's useful for people to see a timestamp for endgame. Esp when there isn't any 'pause the video' or anything between 'completely new game' and 'in this position'.
Polgar was certainly stronger at her age, but everyone takes different paths and steady improvement could take her very far for sure. Chess really needs more women as strong as Polgar and Yifan.
If someone is still at 2400 lvl at age 21, the chances she reaches top 10 in the world is incredibly unlikely. Most people hit their peak rating between 21-27. Anything's possible. What's more likely is that she inspires millions of little Indian girls to start playing chess at a young age, which will then likely produce another polgar level player
And she beat 1 strong player in an online rapid match. 555-comeonnow. She's also not young, at 21, and only 2400 rated. She'll never come close to the top 100, it's an insult to use Polgar's name in the same comment as her.
Dubov is young and still has time to master the intricacies of playing B4 at the right time. No doubt his rating will fall back to around 2400 until he can master this aspect of the game.
Is there any group or community (other than agadmator one) on social media apps or on our chess websites where we could talk about chess and the updates related to the chess world?
Did Daniel feel that she could not close out the game? I get it, she's 2400 and he's Dubov, but the fact that this lasted until turn 80 feels a little bit disrespectful.
Just a few requests please #SUGGESTION. Please lots more of Nurgyul Salimov and lots more of Vaishali. Wouldn't it be great to have a brother and sister at the top of world chess. Pragu looks as if he is the next in line after Magnus while Vaishali is stunningly good too. And, from a historic perspective, could you find some good games by Ludek Pachman. His Modern Chess Strategy was my chess bible when I was playing chess at school, when I was quite good for my age. Nowadays your dog (do you still have him) could probably beat me. And also plenty more from Tigran Petrosian. I know he is not your style (you like the attacking tactical players) but his chess was truly amazing in a different way. I think you put up a quote once from I can't remember who "If Tal offers a sacrifice accept it. If Petrosian offers you a sacrifice, resign". Lastly, please some more Fisher Random. Taking the book learning out of the game really is a good way to focus on pure talent So many thanks for your excellent channel. You have reawakened my interest in the game and regularly show how exciting the modern chess world has become.
