I can tell Fabi held back and made more moves then was necessary. It could have been much more devastating with the two pawns being pushed like that cause the white bishop was actually trapped but he didn't push them. It was interesting to see how he used them to open him up instead of pushing the pawns and taking pieces.

"Have you ever played before" - Trash talking is strong in this one!

"I've never played chess before, but I'll give you three extra minutes." 😂

Damn, that was utter destruction. Nicely done Fabi.

What a pleasure to observe the smiling expression of the two players during the match☀️

Mike's Sleeve knocking his own king over during his first move at 0:31 is foreboding

Must admit that chess top players nowadays are the most chill professionalls I can think off. Where else You can spot in amateur/random/whatever places sportsman that meet with fans and just play some game.

Every time I watch this channel it makes think of what it would be like to have Ben Finegold in one of his silly moods on Coffee Chess.

Zen chess from Fabi, such a joy to watch.

Prime example of the threat being more powerful than the attack... As they explained in the post game analysis.. having that pawn guarding g1 was way more powerful than winning a rook... And says a lot of how gms have a plan from very early once they see weak points on board

This Fabi Carvana guy is pretty good

Great game.. Interestingly during the opening Fabiano willingly gives up a bishop for a knight but later passes on taking knight for a pawn.. Early mid game BM blunders giving up a bishop on a poorly developed board!! Its a weird game from the beginning and it will end quickly I think that Boston Mike's blunder sealed the game, I'm not sure what would of changed the outcome here B Mike there wasn't much strategy here he simply went for cornering you on a weak board maybe bringing in a rook might of helped..

Very cool! I wonder how they get so many great players? They might be paid appearances, doesn't matter I guess. They certainly made a nice niche for themselves as a chess youtube channel. When I first saw their channel, some years ago, it seemed a bit strange to see these (relatively) lower level chess players sorta acting like they were great players, but it's entertaining. And you gotta hand it to them, they are willing to play anyone, and do it with style, even when being very much outmatched. Watched a lot of their videos, so they must be doing something right :) Heck, they are kinda famous now, to people who watch chess online.

If someone is challenging you with HALF THE CLOCK don't even try 😂

Imagine playing someone, who can beat (and has beaten) the best chess players in the world

"That don't do nuthin! ohh checkmate lol"

A topless Mike vs Fabi would be something to see.

Gonna watch the game again to absorb all the talkin' points 😊

Qf5 was a nasty move. It was threatening Qe4++, as well as a queen sac on b1 to promote and mate with the rook and bishop. Ouch

"That doesnt do anything" *mate in one*

Mike blunders by taking off his cool jacket, demoralizing his solid defending bishop

Mike seems like a real nice guy.

That trash talker seemed awful sweet and respectful to me.

Good friends mike has. Talks all the shit they can, but they help him take his jacket off

Love the Botez hoodie on Fabi

Boston Mike telling Fabio he's going down

One thing j learn which was a big help is when you lose pawns around your Kong replace them with pieces if you can survive the attack usually you win.

Where is this place? That is my favorite Chess Set Design. I have 3 different sets, and they all have that same design.

“This is what strong players do! They promise trash talk in the title when there was absolutely zero.”

All these "hustlers" know exactly who these GMs are. Anybody that plays chess above 1500 level know who they are.

the traah talker is getting trash talked from all around!!

You asked what was the line that white could have used to keep an advantage?? After the captures in the center it all evens out and it is completely equal. There is no advantage. This is a very solid and reliable line as black to counter English 1.c4 2.Nc3, even Anand used Bb4 for along time as black.

Mike Ehrmantraut has been really quiet since this dropped

Come on Fabi, 1 minute time-odds 😏

At 3:18 black could’ve done Queen f2, then white has to move King to h1, and Black moves Queen g2 for checkmate.
