" Greg Shahade beat my ex-wife in 16 moves, no wonder I divorced her." Possibly the best Finegold-ism of all time.

Jajaja, yes ! He is definitely very funny, I wonder if he could really beat serauan, sorry, I may be spelling his nale wrong. I liked his game against korchnoi, where he lost the chance to candidate master, but it is not losing whats important, everybody loses here or there, even Fischer, but is the superior quality of his strategy, and win in the loss that matter. !

"Kriventsov was white and played the sharpest sicilian ever, and I was : darrgh... stupid! And I was winning my game and he was resigning. Like she totally destroyed him!". I love when he says that about Jennifer Shahade as although she's so cute, she's a real monster over the board.

I used to play KG in my youth....what a pitty that e.g. the falkbeer countergamit takes out all the fun for White :( maybbbe you could make a lecture on how to forcefully get a comfortable position for White...cause bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbblack equals pretty much on move 2 :( and I can´t find anything better than exd5 :( after that bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbblack gets a comfortale position with total equalty...even the e4 push is unfunny for White...and f4 starts looking pretty ridiculous

It's a move. Kf1 is the response. If I would prepare this line with Bc4, I would look at this move first. Thats probably why he didnt do that.

He has a right to be cocky but man are his jokes hit or miss... it would be great to see him do a straight chess presentation and then save ten minutes afterwards for his comedy routine. Especially since 90% of his jokes are inside baseball and really only for himself and maybe two members of the audience
