    I love how you give interesting background information about the players while barely drifting away from the explanation/analysis. Your videos have helped me improve dramatically AND become more interested in chess. I didn’t know who capablanca was before you but now he’s my favorite! I also hate complicated chess and weird openings. Thank you, GM Igor Smirnoff!

    Thanks for showing this match! Interesting background trivia. Great commentary in all aspects too. It&apos;s really hard to see where those pawn sacrifices will eventually lead when they look so innocent and small moves.

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIkEmENd0DM&amp;t=550">9:10</a> the definition of a brilliant move is that it&apos;s the best move, mostly the only winning/not losing move that is &quot;hard to see&quot;
