3:55 "So we see that both PAWNS have about 2 and a half minutes!" :)

@Brundo031 Stumbling over the word "opponents" means I guess that we are both just pawns in the game ;-)

Grandmasters, such as yourself, deserve better chess sets than that :). They need those beautiful sets from the former USSR called 'Grandmaster chess sets' for you to use. Another Great Game Thank You :).

[ChessQueen]

@Ronbo710 True, it is much more agreeable to play with nice chess sets! I'm not sure I play better with them, but that's definitely possible! :-)

@Ronbo710 The "vanity" chess sets aren't good for speed chess.

at 3:47, why not Bf6, which you give you a better advantage. But great video.

9:07 Qxc5 bxc5 Kxc5 white wins immediately.

[LLucasViana]

Interesting variant chosen for black, considered one of the best, but with little iniciative. Great game.
