Congratulations! Agadmator and Hikaru have already called it your "Immortal". Agadmator even called it the "Simon variation" 😀
hikarus recap of the game ruclips.net/video/zDKBbyi6wJU/видео.html
The tabia from this game have Simon's flair stamped all over it. I've always loved his romantic attacking style, calculated risk-taking, and geometric madness. This game had it all turned up to 11. Definitely Simon Williams' Immortal.
This is one of the best attacking chess games of the 21st century.
This game has something Morphy about it. The efficiency of white's pieces and the raking bishops, particularly the one on a3. Brilliant game!
I watched this live , the commentators were so excited when they saw the line (via the computer), and both agreed that they thought you would find it . Very Impressive Simon , Respect !
Me too. Brilliant stuff.
And me..❤
I liked it when Blair called it your "immoral" game. I think from a misspelling in a chat. But that name sets it apart. In any case, this is such a brilliant and fun game. I can't get enough of it.
I can't believe all the variations you had to calculate. That was beyond amazing! What a stunning game! This is just Art!
"Meeting a check with checkmate." Love it. Cheers and congratulations \m/
Note the beautiful irony of Harry never making it off the mark - reminds me of Portugal beating the swiss 6-1 with Ronaldo on the bench!😊
Congrats on the game Simon, truely magnificent🎉
And it was in this position the opponent declared "F a Duck, everything is mate!"
It's still best game of the year so far, Simon. Awesome attack you put together there.
You would give Tal a run for his money with that brilliancy ! Commentated with a touch of humour 😀👍
Been watching your content for the last 8 years or so. You greatly inspired my style (even got your killer dutch DVD and I play this opening at around 2000 level). Love to see your attacking chess!
Win or lose, I love the style of chess you play. Great to see one of your ambitious sacrifice attacks come off so well.
Game of the year! 😄 I first saw this game here, the RUclips video with Blair Connell and Danny Gormally doing a great job commentating, with no spoilers, which was very thrilling on multiple levels, and have been waiting for you to put out your own analysis video. You are my favorite player, streamer, and teacher, so it was exciting enough just watching you compete, with Blair & others commentating. Based on the title of the video, I went into it with low expectations, really expecting it to be a "boring" game as the title suggested. Then it became so exciting and suspenseful, watching these brilliant and beautiful moves going down on the board, and so many on the internet recognizing my favorite player's outstanding game!
Simon, this Bd6 ...Bb4 Nd2! idea that we never saw on the board really just blows my mind. What a masterpiece. I will be showing this game to students for decades to come.
Piece of art, so well played. Loved to see it live and thnx for the recap!
Very clear explanations, thx Simon and congrats for your tournament! Greetings from France :)
you deserve the win Simon
Congratulations Simon - masterfully done!
Amazing play , congrats 😅
Such clear explanation as usual, and congrats on playing an exciting game.
Great video! I saw one recap of this already, but I was waiting for yours, and u didn’t disappoint! High art, Mr Williams! Kudos!! 👏👏👍🏽👍🏽
Great video! I was glued to the screen. Great Game!!!! I do think it will be remembered for a long, long time.
Really awesome calculations!
Beautiful chess. Very glad to see you are back on a roll.
🔥
It's the game of the year for sure!! Nice Rxf7 thx Simon you are a natural born attacker
Loved the commentary team of Blair Connell and the legendary Danny Gormally!
Awesome game and hearing your thoughts on it is top tier content 👏
The Ginger Tal !!
Those Tal games are rubbing off, mate!
Well played 👍🏾
Simon's immortal game! ♟️
It's a real pity a little 'fear' creeps in when you are playing the super GM's which stops you playing this kind of 'free spirit' chess against them.
"The fear of making a mistake ensures mistakes"...Gary Kasparov
He at least has another brilliant game against super gm Wojtaszek where he sacced a whole rook
was waiting for this - congratulations on the game!
Fantastic game Simon. Congratulations, and thank-you for sharing your thoughts on it.
Congrats on such a masterpiece !
Love it! Happy for you Simon!
It was a thing of beauty. Did someone once say "never play f6"?
Or f3...
Simon Williams is my favorite GM.
Congrats Simon, I was very happy to see you putting something like this on the board. Well done Sir! I'm always rooting for you, and your success my friend. Cheers🎉
I was watching this live with Danny Gormally commentating. Brilliant game. When even Hikaru is impressed you know you've played a good one! Hope you'll be streaming again soon Simon.

Absolutely incredible game!
This was such a thrilling analysis and a wonderful game!
21:20 maybe Qc2 is a killer blow. Pleasure to see your full thoughts on the game. Ideas like Nd2 is what makes you an epic alltime attacker!
So good ive watched it twice back to back
Congrats Simon!!
Great game Simon!
That was awesome. One of the books.
Congrats on your immortal game! It was a thing of beauty :)
congrats Simon on a great game.
All good things start with "so I was in the pub and we got talking..." 😉 excellent game!
how do you recover from that? I think playing a beauty like that would've affected my play for the rest of the tournament because it doesnt get much better!
CLEEEEEAAAAANNNN! Nice work!
Well done, Simon!
Man, what I'd give to be a fly on the wall in the room where GingerGM is chatting with the chess viking about pawn f3 loool
Thanks, great game.
Simon you are a true living legend, love you my friend, keep posting
What's more than "Wow!"? Just "Mamma mia, wow!".
Fantastic game, really exciting lines and the signature ginger humour. Encore!
Congratulations Simon! If you're ever in Finland/Helsinki I'll buy you a pint 🍻
Really awesome game!
awesome "put that in your pipe and smoke it, daughter" moment when you sacrificed the queen 😊
Such an amazing game!
Are you mad?!😂 Unbeleivable, even the variations that were not played. Great stuff. Congratulations.
Impressive foresight
Bravo!!
good stuff simon
Reminded me of a Fischer game from when he was a teenager...
Wonderful
Honestly, though this video highlights a sensational game, it is also very instructive. Thanks for the insights and congratulations!
Mind blowing game ‼️🤙
Take that Ben Finegold!!
