    Love it. You have such a strong fundamental understanding of chess that it help me when you explain the meaning behind each move in these complex board states. The histories behind the games adds quite a lot of depth and makes for a really engaging experience. I appreciate the hard work you put into your craft!

    YOU HAVE NO IDEA!
    The Kings Gambit has became my favorite opening in the past month, and I’ve been watching lots of videos on it, and I even saw this game BEFORE on a video I watched!
    That is the definition of divine timing.
    Thank you 🙏
    Edit: that repeating is great! And showing the queens gambit similarities, great!
    Makes the video longer too, win-win.

    I really love the way you teach in your videos it’s obviously a lot slower than real chess but you don’t ever make it feel condescending and chess can often feel like something so huge and massive that there’s no room for beginners. The more I learn I realize just how dramatic and different each match is! I’ve always wanted to learn how to play and I find myself more exited as I start to actually understand everything

    Love learning with your videos. Perfect pace, mellow m ml focused. It's excellent, I've learned a few openings with your videos.
    Idk why it feels appropriate to mention this, but I'd like to share this story with you:
    I started playing chess about 5 years as a grown woman. My son loved it, it was a chance to learn something I'd always wanted to learn and, most important, an opportunity to hang out with my son 😊 (I'm also certified mediocre at Nintendo (many consoles, MANY games), as well as Pokemon, Zelda, MTG, Nerf gun warfare, and a few others).
    I became increasingly interested until I was reading books on chess & taking notes. Now we play for real - cut throat. I'm so happy I learned, it truly feels liberating to the brain, & helps problem solve in every day life situations. But most importantly, we spend quality time doing something we both love. He's a whole lot better than me - i have beaten him before but mostly bLove learning with your videos. Perfect pase, mellow, focused. It's excellent, I've learned a few openings with your videos.

    I think this is a great concept. It's riveting to watch and very enlightening. Seeing your guesses come true is also fun, because we viewers are also guessing. One request: I felt a little let down when you revealed that Fischer resigned. I wanted to see what checkmate would look like from that position. Can you show us some speculative endgames and wins?

    • @ASMRChess
      @ASMRChess  2 года назад +8

      Yes I try to show a checkmate sequence whenever possible. However grandmasters often resign 20+ moves before checkmate because they can see the game is lost no matter what, and that can be hard to show.

    I agree that blocking with the rook was a little odd since the attacking piece was on the diagonal. There's no inherent threat to the pinning piece. If the Queen was on a rank or file, the Rook would have been better. The Rook was stuck the rest of the game. May not have mattered, but interesting, anyway.
