    This is game 8. While recording I thought it was game 7. Hence the confusion. Next video is game 7! Enjoy your day :)

    Morphy is a true gentleman, always giving a winning chance to his opponents to make it a fair play. Andersson is also a trur gentleman, he never took those chances and relied on his own to win or lose.

      No, I don’t buy this that Morphy would be giving such chances to his opponents on purpose. But they were both gents - this I can agree on.

  • @colinpetersen1173
    @colinpetersen1173 3 года назад

    Agad if we alternate white-black-white-black and assume having white is an advantage then whoever has white first is never behind.
    By alternating white-black-black-white-white the lead will switch back and forth, which is a fairer structure.
    The same structure is used for serving points in tennis tiebreaks for the same reason, to alternate the opportunity to lead.

    You people who are thumbs-downing a chess analysis, what's up with that? Who would do such a thing? (Maybe Agadmator's competitors?) I can't imagine doing that to any chess reviewer, even one who does nothing more than state the obvious and say "uh" after every two words. Agadmator explains the rationale behind nearly every move, and only very rarely fails to explain one that I wish he had. Furthermore, he provides all this information with wit and humor entertainingly -- which the other commentators don't. What possible complaint could anyone have that would justify a thumbs-down?
