Closing in on on million subscribers. I predicted as much when there were less than 200 k. Not bragging but pointing out the obvious: 1. Most important is your viewers must like you. This observation from none other than Johnny Carson the iconic and most popular ever late night talk show host. 2. A central theme that appeals to many people. 3. A complete non- biased presentation of whatever topic your presenting.4. Levity and humor , but again not biased, completely neutral while presenting.5. Presentation and review of iconic chess champions, both current and past. 6. Whom reviewed decided by subscribers vote. Including the audience in some content decisions. So, interesting content of a subject I like where I get to help select what I want to watch and everything emceed by a guy I really like and trust. One million indeed. So as you branch out into whatever endeavor you choose I wish you all the best. Always remember: Integrity
There is an article about Armageddon time control, I also agree with their conclusion: "This game generation was done because there is a very small amount of Armageddon games in order to draw statistical conclusions out of them. The resulting time controls were found to be 180±35 seconds for white and 110±12.27 seconds for black plus a 2±0.39 second increment per move, starting from move 1".
Hey Agad, Just watched some of your games in 4-player-chess with GM Hikaru and I thought it was very funny; could you maybe upload some of the games on your account aswell? Think it would be very enjoyable! Anyway, keep up the great work
Hans Hansen whahaha, fair play. Although I would really recommend looking into “GothamChess”‘S channel; je has great videos and I’ve learned a lot already! Think you should give it a try!
I have to imagine Ding thought that d5 wasn’t a true pawn sacrifice and that he’d be able to win the pawn back without much trouble. Except he couldn’t and under such severe time control you don’t have time to calculate the right counterplay. you end up piling everything you have into winning your material back without being able to account for your position slowly collapsing in front of you.
Hi Agadmator. I'd love to see a game featuring the Petrov's Defence. I know you haven't done any Alpha Zero games recently, but if there are any, I'd love to see your analysis
I think a really fun tournament structure to watch would be a best-of-seven Armageddon match. One player would play W-W-B-B-W-B-W, and first to 4 points wins the match. It works for Basketball and Hockey.

#suggestion Game 3 of Ding Naka today, great positional game for Ding, had even Magnus impressed and commentators called it a "masterclass." plus Queen vs Bishop + Knight endgame is always interesting.
It means that even if you are in a inferior/losing position you should keep on playing and make it harder for your opponent to convert his advantage. He might even makes some mistakes which will allows you to win. Weak players when they get into inferior/losing position they resign right away. That's why they don't win. I believe Wesley So who said that, "Anyone can get an advantage, but only the best players can convert." So if your opponent is not one of the best players in the world, you should keep on playing if you get an inferior/losing position because there's a big chance that your opponent will mess up his advantage.

Does anyone have the statistics on which side does better in Armageddon matches? My intuition says that black would be better, but I'm really not certain.
#suggestion Could you redo the Garry Kasparov vs Anand from the Tal Memorial when Garry uses the Evans gambit? I fell your old version could use some of the vast knowledge you've amassed during the years ;)
I personally dont think I would have ever been able to get into and enjoy a playing a chess game (tho I'm not very good XD) if it wasn't for your analysis. Thank you for all your work :)
Hi Agadmator, i wonder if you know Starcraft Broodwar, a lot of ppl who play chess used to play Starcraft 1. BTW Google Deppmind A.I. cannot beat humans in SC1 yet... its very complex.
Just for your information agad - the higher ranked player gets to choose what colour he will play - nakamura said it on his stream. Thought you might like to expand your vast knowledge :)
For many games this could work, but when you are a super GM playing against another super GM (who in this case could well be the best blitz player in the world) they are simply too good at converting winning positions for it to be worth it unless they are extremely low on time. In addition, Hikaru is one of the fastest players on the whole circuit so even if he is low on time he's not likely to mess something like this up in a serious match.
Can't wait for Nakamura to play Ding after Hikaru finished playing him
No, Nakamura is going to play Liren.

3:44 Why can't Ding still go b5? After captures captures, Hikarus Rook is hanging. So he can't capture back
Then rook captures a8
After trade(Black Queen obviously gonna captures the white rook)
Then knight able to get a free b5 pawn

Hi Agadmator. I'd love to see a game featuring the Petrov's Defence. I know you haven't done any Alpha Zero games recently, but if there are any, I'd love to see your analysis
isn't at 5:42 a better move to push b7 with the pawn? you take away the rook from the attack which allows you to take the knight with your rook.
In Hikaru's video he confirmed Ding choose Black
Did he ramble on about it for a while?

What is the meaning of the quote above
Nobody ever wins a game by resigning
Exactly
if you resign that means you lose the game, so everyone who’s ever resigned lost duuuuhhhhhhhhh
Yes
It means that even if you are in a inferior/losing position you should keep on playing and make it harder for your opponent to convert his advantage. He might even makes some mistakes which will allows you to win.
Weak players when they get into inferior/losing position they resign right away. That's why they don't win.

Legit question: why would anyone resign as black instead of trying to run out the time and get the draw?
For many games this could work, but when you are a super GM playing against another super GM (who in this case could well be the best blitz player in the world) they are simply too good at converting winning positions for it to be worth it unless they are extremely low on time.
