This game was played in the "Bullet Chess Winner's Blitz" according to the Chessbase database. Since I didn't make it clear in the video, black's main mistakes were: 1. Playing a5 and taking on c3 with his pawn. This gave white's knight access to the b5 square and opened up the c-file for white's rook. (at 5:36 in the video) 2. Surprisingly Ba6 was a mistake. The move looks natural, but black needs to remove his queen as quickly as possible from the c7 square to avoid the bishop on f4 and the rook on c1. (at 5:59 in the video)

And the biggest mistakes are 5... Nc6 6. Nf3 (Nb5!). Btw, do check what the Carlsbad structure is: e.g. it arises from the QGD after cd5 ed5.

Wow, that sac suddenly changes everything in the game, just one sac and black structure collapse

You do great chess commentary. You would be a good meteorologist too!

Oops, that went fast, and no apparent blunder by Black, or? Quite amazing!

Came across this channel the first time and like the way you break down and explained the gameplay. Will be looking out for more!

That was a brutal win!

Thanks Dawg

Dawg this one is insane and it legit taught me like four different things about the jobava alone. I do really think that’s its bad to not go for that forced fork after Nc6 in the beginning but it may be because he either just wanted to try out that fianchetto (which is insane btw I gotta study this more), or he wasn’t familiar/didn’t want to deal with the cautious defense after the rook for knight

Wow, thanks for introducing me to the fianchetto idea. Will certainly see how it works out in my games

That escalated quickly

I like how White's bishop in the corner gets to kick back and stretch out. He'll be called in if anything goes down.

Nice❤

Interesting is 3...c5 4.e3 a6 followed by 5...b5.

Lol 5... Nc6 is resignable against Firouzja.

I think I'll give it a go👍

Super game

Thanks

I played that like 3 days before this video

I'm humbly ask why didn't he fork and take rook with knight at beginning

Black needs to play Qc7! instead of o-o with an equal game

Its bullet, but the black player looks like a novician against the beast Alireza.

Can we get some games from the Speed Chess Championship? Also would be nice in the intro if you said when and where the game took place.

Yes, I will be covering games from that event. There have been too many amazing games to keep track of them all.
