It could have been two other positions. The position was chosen by Jan Gustafsson and Daniel Naroditsky who commentated the tournament together. Antonio bribing them could however be a possibility (I can say no more on this matter).
Man agadmator, I just want to say thank you for your chess channel. I’m a black guy from the US and growing up, I didn’t have the opportunity to pursue being a grandmaster and strong competitor. But when your videos came across my feed in college, I was very grateful because I didn’t know anyone who had a passion to play except for one kid in high school. Your channel reminds me to play. I was very close to 1700, but fell again. One day I want to really study and still give it a shot! Thanks man!
It seems you have over looked the Online Chess world. I got serious in my early twenties, bough books, hired a Master for lessons, traveled all over New England with a friend who had a car to play in tournaments. Online Play is free and you can learn a lot there. " One Day I want to really study...." One day never comes. Invest 100$ in highly rated books that teach positional play , solve 10,000 ( yes ten thousand ) tactical puzzels ( free online ) , and play 15/5 time control games everyday online. Review your games win or lose afterwards , use engine to see mistakes. Do this starting Today, not " One Day " because its doable, 1 hour a day & 100 $. You will quickly grow in strength. Best Wishes. BTW, skin color has nothing to do with a chance to be good at chess. Strong moves on the board are Strong no matter the color of the hand making them.
I think the vast majority of this wonderful community would understand the mention of being black in this comment, but for those who don't, other than Maurice Ashley can anyone name me any other black GM without Googling it? Representation is important!
He’s like a totally different person since he started streaming and quit caring so much about his chess legacy. I’d love to see him win the classical championship.
#suggestion Casablanca chess quotes... "Of all the chess joints in all the towns in all the world, Hikaru walks into mine." "Play it again, Antonio." "Here's looking at you, knight."

Maybe not now, maybe not in 20 minutes, but soon, and for the rest of your life."
I have argued...why should black accept the Evan's gambit? Why allow white the chance to kick around the black queen? lol ok... 😄 I don't have much confidence playing against gambits while playing black... 😒
#suggestion there is a great and very instructive game played between Smyslov and Reshevsky in 1948, the game is called "Slippery Vasily". It would be great if you could show it
Sadly they aren't advanced pawns and black still has to develop more pieces. That extra piece will eventually eliminate those pawns due to inadequate protection.
I know that you like the Evans Gambit, but for me I truly dis like this move, because white can easily make the dark squared bishop useless by closing it off
Those GM´s really make it look too easy while i´m struggeling to find a move against a 1000 rated player 🙈 When i can´t spot a move i just play B4, cause by now we all learned that it´s the strongest move in almost any position
That was the bottomline even though Bassem got two Rooks for his Queen his other pieces his light squared Bishop and Rooks were never able to get into the game I was thinking maybe he should’ve sacrificed a pawn to at least activate the Bishop but than he’d have to contend with a passed pawn pretty lopsided game
At 2:45, "you're going to be down a full knight." Does Agad not know what words mean? You're not down a full knight, you have 3 extra pawns for the knight. You're actually not really down any material, certainly not a FULL knight.
Why should black accept the Evan's gambit? Black always seems to lose the queen in one way or another... Show me a game where the Evan's gambit "accepted" fails... Then I may have more confidence to accept the Evan's gambit playing black...
Hello. So, what I want to do with this message is to simply show what the Gospel is. I am not trying to force my belief down people's throats. It's your choice whether you want to accept it. Please read the whole text. So, a question: Do you think you are a good person? If so, have you ever stolen anything, lied, looked lustfully, watched adult material? All of those are sins and anyone who sinned is not good(on God's standard). You, I and most( most because babies don't sin, and maybe specifically mentally Ill people) purely human beings have violated God's moral law. Since God is just, He can't let sin go just like that. So is there any hope? Yes, there is. Out of love and mercy, God became a human being, Jesus Christ. Jesus lived a sinless life and finally died on the cross to bear the punishment we deserve, we deserve to be punished because we have sinned. The reason why blood must be spilled for forgiveness of sins is because the life of the flesh is in the blood, in the Old Testament Jews sacrificed animals for sins but the sacrifice of animals were enough to temporarily cover some sins. (it did not allow forgiveness of sins, unlike Jesus's, it only temporarily covered them). Jesus is the Lamb of God, the ultimate sacrifice for sins which is enough for all sins that have been done, are done and will be done. Jesus was buried and rose again. His resurrection proved that His death was enough to pay our penalty, the penalty for our sins. Jesus paid our penalty and in order to accept the free gift of salvation from God, we must trust in Jesus's spilled Blood, His finished work on the Cross for our Salvation. And then your sins will be forgiven because of what Christ did, you will be saved. See: Romans 3:1 , Romans 3:23 , Romans 5:12 , Romans 6:23 , Romans 5:8-9, Romans 10:9-10 , Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV, John 3:16 KJV, Leviticus 17:11 , Ephesians 1:7 , Colossians 1:20, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 .
Hi. I’m a Christian too but I think you miss the point here. The point is that in the gioco piano, the only winning move is 4.b4!!! Get your priorities straight 😂
Yes, I read the message. Your rendition of the satisfaction atonement theory is spectacularly wrong. Nobody’s gonna believe what you’re saying when your theology is so faulty. Please stop commenting on chess videos and go educate yourself. When you finish reading the Bible, go read Karl Barth 🙂
Looks like this entire tournament is happening just so that Agadmator can upload multiple evans gambit games for us 😄

I found "Thats no way to play chess" kinda hilarious, but thats the way the games go down in 1k elo
Lol yea

In his must win game in the candidates, Hikaru should have sought out the Evan's gambit!
Those guys are just ready for anything. High level chess must be tiring man.😢
maybe, or maybe just potentially not d4, maybe a reti or c4 would be good
There opponents study many engine lines like 20 moves or more
@@varun8762 Understood. Still, anything but d4 😑
They'll come around eventually when the engines show it's true potential
Someone in the organisation of this tournament must be a fan of Agad! Everyone will have to play the Evans...
Evans Gambit event already
Agadmator I bet you loved covering these games. I appreciate the work ❤
Agadmator: Black has a rook for a queen and a rook for a knight. That's no way to play chess.
Tal: Challenge accepted.
agadmator has been treated.
While technically the engine says the position is equal, it seems the Evans gambit is extremely hard to play for black.
Hikaru: resign
Bassem: I'll do it at move 20
Hikaru is A MONSTER!!! He played spectacular
He’s like a totally different person since he started streaming and quit caring so much about his chess legacy. I’d love to see him win the classical championship.

going to the bar🚶🚶
Love the sub 10 minute videos Agad ❤
"puzzle rush moment" ^^
Those miniatures are fire 💣
Magnus and I are not jealous of these two for a second.
The way you pronounce bassem's name is a spot on! Excellent pronunciation skills agamator.
great video as always. From which position are they "allowed" to go out of the original game?
The 10 first moves are from the original game. Move 11 is the first move (white to move) decided by the players.
@@sortehuse thank you!
this tournament is agadmator's dream come true
What!? Anotha one 😂 What a day for Agad 🔥
In the two Evans gambit games black struggled to develop his a8 rook and c8 bishop
I have argued...why should black accept the Evan's gambit?
Why allow white the chance to kick around the black queen?
lol ok... 😄
I don't have much confidence playing against gambits while playing black... 😒
I don’t see the link to the Magnus game you mention around 1:15 or the link to the Evan’s gambit tutorial
Unsure if Antonio said it intentionally, but could not be more spot-on! 1:31
Woudo be nice to give bassem an introduction I didn't know he's a doctor
2:46 " down a whole knight" ...really though, 4 pawns for the piece & 1 is already passed.
This does look playable, Black's endgame looks good.
Hikaru in his prime
Im so happy as a moroccan that the event is happening here in morocco, sadly im not in casablanca to see it ;(

What ever happened to the Steinitz Saga?
Hello from a fellow subscriber from back in the days when this channel was below 500,000. Those sagas (the completed ones) were great.
Does your new camera have motion tracking? Took me a few videos to catch that
Yes! Still deciding whether to use it or not though
I watched this live but agad is a must watch.
#suggestion there is a great and very instructive game played between Smyslov and Reshevsky in 1948, the game is called "Slippery Vasily". It would be great if you could show it
Who is that other guy
Nice game.
Can someone please explain how the tournament is actually played?
There is GM, then there is Super GM's.
Bassem was once 2700
4:23 passivity
Anyone knows how to get schedule of chess games and tournaments of the year .. appreciate it guys l!
Did the players knew in advance the initial position?

I never bring the Queen out like Black does at the start of the game -
it's asking for trouble.
Text books all say that it's a bad move.
2:49 you have 3 pawns for the knight.
Sadly they aren't advanced pawns and black still has to develop more pieces. That extra piece will eventually eliminate those pawns due to inadequate protection.
The king is exposed and it would have to be played out over the board. It's not a slam dunk.
I am just saying it's not really a material imbalance.
Bassem is an expert in King's Indian defence , When he playes another setup he seems not on his top form
it's over
I know that you like the Evans Gambit, but for me I truly dis like this move, because white can easily make the dark squared bishop useless by closing it off
there was D6
Why do i feel that these games are recommended by agadmator to the organiser 😅
Those GM´s really make it look too easy while i´m struggeling to find a move against a 1000 rated player 🙈 When i can´t spot a move i just play B4, cause by now we all learned that it´s the strongest move in almost any position
