  • fun as always, how did you know resigning would only cost you 1 point?

  • @numbcore I noted it from another tournament when you resign without doubling the cube - you just lose one point

  • I strongly disagree with the negative comments above. 1 or 2 min chess is interesting. It emphasizes the skills of players to understand chess tactics and strategy intuitively. Those videos show an amazing ability to think about combinations under stringent time pressure, and this largely compensates for the blunders and the unsoundness of some games. Your videos have helped me a lot to improve my own blitz/bullet games.

  • @TheEipiplusone Yes it seems David Bronstein was a fan of "Active chess" and even played Bullet chess. One game against Spassky was even shown by Spassky to his friends a bit after :

    Bronstein vs Spassky Bullet Game, Moscow 1961

    1. d4 f5 2. e4 fxe4 3. Nc3 Nf6 4. f3 exf3 5. Nxf3 d6 6. Bf4 Bg4 7. Bc4 e6 8.

    O-O Nc6 9. h3 Bxf3 10. Qxf3 d5 11. Bb5 Bd6 12. Rae1 Kd7 13. Bxd6 cxd6 14.

    Rxe6 Kxe6 15. Nxd5 Nxd4 16. Qe3+ Kxd5 17. Rf5+ 1-0

  • @Mirrodin82 BTW even a near World champion Bronstein was very fond of "Active chess" - even bullet chess.

  • at 9:16 you had a mate in 2 with Nd2+ Ka1 Rxc1#, time pressure sucks doesnt it

  • I hate non-movers!

  • ROTFLMAO... The Force is strong with this one.

  • ROTFL... The dreaded A2-H2 attack!

  • I always have fun watching these games :) Obviously, you can't expect them to be everything that a longer game or a post-analysis is, but you have to enjoy them for their own reasons.

  • @LibertyResolute No, he just missed that and he said it just a move after :)
