You can tell Agad had a slight smirk on his face when he said “feel free to pause the video to spot this mate in 15” knowing not a damn soul outside of Magnus can/could 😂
The first two moves were pretty much obvious in that position. I'm sure Magnus didn't go as far as 15 moves here, he just saw that the position is absolutely winning after taking the rook and following up with a queen check
“Pause the video to see if you can find Mate in FIFTEEN.” Yeah, no thanks. I’m just here to “enjoy the match.” Thanks for asking though. Maybe next time.

I spotted the move in the time allotted, had a fuzzy idea of the next move in case of a capture but after that... a wall. Just a huge wall made of pure void. Sorry about that 😅
They say there are more moves in the game of chess than atoms in the universe, an even larger number is the number of times I would fail to properly spell Prag's last name ( ~___~)
Yes..its not the moves.... But its total number of possible games in chess... Its 10 to the power of 10 to the power of 50. 10^10^50 games can be played in just 64 squares..
Imagine Agad as a physics professor [teaching the class].. "after 50 years, it was in this position Einstein and Hawkins resigned.

I love when agadamator is explaining something he explains it like an 800 could easily spot this in game without problems, meanwhile I'm 900-1000 and am just in awe watching all this happen
I actually found the rook sacrifice and the next two moves. Didn't see the entire mating sequence, but I could guess that the king would get checkmated after that. The queen and bishop combo just looked too strong
Because he goes backward and creates a side-branch of the game-tree. Only the main branch shows the mate sign. This is a guess, but it fits the evidence.
A wise man once told me that I shouldn’t pause a video ever and just enjoy the show, I still remember the tears leaking through his white beard while telling me the thing i told you he told me in the beginning of my comment
Hey Antonio, I am not sure if you do this every time but my recommendation for your wonderful videos is to not always use the photo of the winner in your thumbnails, its fun wondering who will win at the end, or not....lol up to you/.
let us look at the bad moves that caused black's demise. it happens with the queen bishop attack against white's king, which never happens fully. that is the reason why black lost, its attack was bad and also its rook was misplaced on white's king side, leaving the other rook alone on C8. meanwhile white's attack was firm and more effective, it was carried out with precision till black weakened. black's worst move was Rook F8, now that rook is playing defensive, a switch from defending the c pawn to now defending both the king and bishop, even when the queen is connected to, and thus defending, the bishop. white's knight f3 move earlier needs analysis as white retreats the knight and thus wastes a tempo, so it seems. perhaps white did so purposefully in reorganizing its troops and setting up a different attack, which white seems to have done as the position over the board changes. black should have traded the white color bishops when the opportunity came. see how many threats white had at the same time, the c pawn was threatened and so was the idea of attacking black's king with the b2 bishop. earlier black's better move was probably queen b6, which would have given the queen more power and prevented white's queen from penetrating black's camp while also it would defend the isolated a pawn. observe that white wins this game because of the grave error of black in badly moving its rook toward white's king's side. that rook never accomplished anything anyway and that allowed white to execute its double rook and queen attack effectively. black's rook f8 was just horrible, failing to sense the danger its king faced at the time. so no brilliancy given to white, it is just a bad game played by black, not what gms ought to be doing over the board. thanks
i love the "while i give you a couple of seconds" stuff. "try to solve this math equation that never ever been solved before and has a million dollar prize on its head, while i give you a couple of seconds"
I calculated that good things will happen taking the bishop, but I didn't see you can block the bishop with the queen and start giving up serious material though.
10:58 really tough... as many have seen it is the most likely outcome... You are basically hoping to loose in a dignified manner knowing it is Magnus you'd have lost to and its all good😅
Feel free to pause the video for 2.3 seconds and find mate in 87 moves. If you don't, Magnus will show up at your house and start breaking windows until you do
Well I didn't spot all 15 moves but I intuitively knew to check the king with the rook for bishop and force the king out in the open and it'll be a king hunt from there.
"Feel free to pause the video and try to spot this mate in 15 while I give you a couple of seconds" ! While I am still on "Dont notice( be merry) untill mate in 0" !

I ask fm how i can mate with a bishop and knight he said very easy cmon bro in 11 years i Will mate too
Agad a year from now be like: Let's see if you can spot the mate in 23 in this 24-moves miniature
Agad really has much more confidence in our abilities than we deserve
You can tell Agad had a slight smirk on his face when he said “feel free to pause the video to spot this mate in 15” knowing not a damn soul outside of Magnus can/could 😂
I mean he kinda gave the move out because the only move that started with check was rook captures pawn and then just keep on looking for the checks :d
The first two moves were pretty much obvious in that position. I'm sure Magnus didn't go as far as 15 moves here, he just saw that the position is absolutely winning after taking the rook and following up with a queen check
Dubov might be able to do that too
I got the idea behind it, but my head was not able to fully complete it. That being said, if I didn't knew there was a mate I would have missed it.
i saw it easily tho
Magnus chuckled because he knew it was with that move that everyone would get to enjoy the mate in 15 on Agad’s channel.
LMAO XD
