Wow. Calling that engine line insane was an understatement, it belongs in a straightjacket! This game perfectly illustrates the beauty of the unseen moves that enginee reveal to us, showing that some of the most amazing chess never actually gets played on the board.

Great game, flashy sacrifices is what really got me into chess and even the moves that didn't happen are awesome as the engine shows us

Totally amazing game, thanks Sam. As a correspondence player myself I really appreciate you showing a virtually unknown correspondence game such as this. I can't help but wonder how much of that ending the player with white saw though. I suspect he was using the "let's make it as complicated as possible and see if he messes up" strategy! In particular, it's hard to imagine that b4/b5 line being found even with a month to think about it.

The victory symbol near the white king is class and 👍

Can't wait to see more of this series. I love the mix of hidden gems and all time classics

Thank you for an incredible analysis, Sam! That b4 b5 idea to open up the a-file is just so crazy! There are so many amazing ideas lurking in the shadows. Thanks for shining light on this one! 💎

I encourage you soo much to provide more quality content and the reason why Ilike you because your dramatization is so nice 🙂🙂🙂🙂.

15:06 Wow if Qb7 Bxb6+ Kxb6 Qe3+ Kc6 Qc5# as the knight guards d7, also the a2 plays a roll if Kb5 Qc5+ Ka4 Qa5#

You're lost after Qe7, didn't you see Anand's game?

Agadmator was right about b4!
