    Here are some reasons why agadmator is the best chess RUclipsr:
    1. He never asks to subscribe, or pleading for likes or donations.
    2. He is family-friendly
    3. He is very helpful and he explains VERY well in the videos
    Edit: Thx so much for 99 likes! That's like 10 times more likes I've gotten on my videos lol

    This is a very instructive game. White does not blunder in a blatant fashion. Black made his strategy clear in the first 5 moves but White seems to have not caught on. If he did, he failed to form a strategy of his own, lost a bit of time and let the initiative pass to black. Once the second pair of bishops was exchanged, there was almost no chance for White to win.

      Thanks
      I was curious and put it into stockfish, blacks best is to play b4 ... For a draw. That line leads to a crazy rook v 2 knights drawn endgame with perfect play but a 100 different ways both players can blunder. Allowing black to get his rook on the a file is totally winning for black. Stockfish recommends a4 and anything else is losing for white. I get it that the players don't play like engines but a4 was the first thing popped up in my mind and I'm not that good lol.
