Too bad Sam didn't play in the 2017 World Cup. He is my fave American player and his story is a great chess story - very inspiring. He was always a late starter anyway, and there is still no telling what lies in his future. He will continue to surprise ...
On a serious note, both Sam's and Daniel's courses are flat out excellent. I had a chance to view both. The only person giving a thumb's down to this video is Sam's opponent he smashed.

Alex Durig Your beard is one of Sam's favorites, also, Alex. He's gone on record as saying he loves the beard.
