Pratica di Shadowing: UNBELIEVABLE CHESS DRAMA!!!!!! - Impara a parlare inglese con i video
Creazione lezione...
1
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the 2026 Chess Olympiad.
2
This is one of the most insane events that we have seen in quite some time.
3
Through seven rounds, the local heroes, Team Uzbekistan, are undefeated.
4
Nobody, not even in a match, in a game, nobody's lost a single game.
5
And they have defeated the Titans.
6
They defeated India.
7
They defeated China.
8
And this round, they play against Germany.
9
This is a generational Olympiad.
10
The drama is immense, and this is perhaps the most exciting round.
11
We're going to get into it.
12
Back -to -back days, I actually have to go.
13
I cannot sit here and wait for every single game to finish.
14
I would be making this recap four or five hours later, and I simply can't.
15
80 % of the games are done.
16
We've got to get into these games.
17
Here we go.
18
So, first things first, we are going to kick it off with a candidates rematch between the challenger to the World Championship,
19
Javakhir Sandarov, and Matthias Blubaum.
20
So he knows that Blubaum plays very solidly.
21
He plays actually a Vienna.
22
This is my course.
23
Kind of unbelievable.
24
My very, very first course that I ever made on the Vienna and here are castles, Be6.
25
And now you take on d5 and you play this move f4.
26
This is straight up my course, which is amazing.
27
And then this move f6.
28
Now, all of this has been played before.
29
The best move here is fe.
30
Practically, I like f5 as well.
31
But this is just, you know, this is black knowing everything which is rare at sub -2000 level, but at GM level is very normal.
32
And we have a capture, and Dravakir takes back, builds up this nice little pawn structure, and plays like this.
33
Now, what's funny is he has completely followed the top line of the computer.
34
This is exactly how you are supposed to play this position.
35
And here, Black is supposed to castle, leave this pawn just there on c6, and has equalized.
36
That's not very human.
37
Instead, Matthias plays this, which is a much more natural move.
38
And then after this move, he takes this pawn with the queen.
39
However, the problem with this is that now he is going to have a lot of long -term pressure against this king.
40
He is not going to be able to easily castle.
41
Okay, he decides to do that literally immediately, with the idea being that after rook e7, queen c5 check, rook e3, he has this move, g5.
42
And it seems like he is going to be at minimum winning the piece back
43
because the bishop has to guard the rook.
44
But Dravakir was ready for this.
45
And after King h1, which is given a brilliancy, but that's ridiculous.
46
I mean, again, game review doesn't know who's playing.
47
It just, you know, if you play King h1, it would be like you're the smartest person in the world.
48
He's the challenger to the world championship.
49
He has to lose his bishop.
50
And now he has this position.
51
And black is just worse here, right?
52
So Matias does not make it out of the opening.
53
As far as I'm concerned against Sundarov, He had one very practical decision that he needed to solve in this position.
54
He thought for nine minutes.
55
He clearly had calculated this position here after this and didn't realize that he is actually in a lot of danger.
56
His king is very weak, and every endgame he will also have problems because these two are not the same as these two.
57
They are both weak, right?
58
And because white has so much activity, this is the last thing that you want to do against Javahir.
59
We have seen Javahir obliterate people before in dynamic positions.
60
And what does he do in this game?
61
Matias does not defend himself correctly.
62
Here, he needs to be brave and run out with the king, and that he manages to do.
63
But it's a constant, you know, minefield that he has to walk through.
64
And the explosions are being heard all around Uzbekistan, right?
65
Queen goes back.
66
Queen centralizes.
67
You know, black is still playing accurately, but he has a minute.
68
Drava here is slowly breaking down the spirit and the soul and the body.
69
And b6 is played, and the queen is forced away.
70
And now Rh4 is winning you move the queen out, you give another check.
71
If he had gone here, then there would have been queen f3 and probably ladder mate, right?
72
That was the whole idea.
73
You have to check the king, king goes here, and queen a check.
74
And now you have both rook g8 as an idea, and now you have this, and the queen hunts the king out into the open,
75
and Javahir Sandarov continues his demolition in this tournament, he is now 5 .5 out of 7,
76
and his rating is 27 .85.
77
This man is one of the highest -rated players in human history already.
78
This is ridiculous.
79
He might get to 2 ,800 by the end of the tournament if he keeps winning.
80
A world championship challenger at 2 ,800.
81
Haven't seen that since, I don't know, the Norwegian guy whose name is Magnus.
82
You might heard of him.
83
So Sundarov wins another game.
84
Uzbekistan, well on their way to a gold medal, to an absolutely dominant finish.
85
Oh.
86
Really?
87
We'll see if Fredrik Svane has anything to say about that.
88
He takes on Nojubek Yakubojev.
89
This is a Sicilian defense.
90
all right nice little sicilian little imbalanced anti -sicilian game very weird position
91
and right here is a critical moment of the opening knight to e5 completely and utterly losing the knight
92
if it's taken right not by the queen
93
that would be really magical the queen would take the night
94
so he is transforming the position like this yakuboyev thinks
95
and defends this knight with this knight and leaves the knight hanging
96
and the boys here spend a combined
97
if you combine both of their time spent they spend over like an hour
98
and 20 minutes on these two moves each now instead of
99
moving the knight this way right to get it out of danger
100
or play knight g4 frederick plays g4 This is a breathtaking move.
101
This is actually like very, very, very genius.
102
He voluntarily doubles his own castled king pawns because in the ensuing position of pawn takes,
103
pawn takes, he has a very useful pawn break, pawn to f4, which would open up his attacking chances.
104
And if black were to castle, White would just go king h1, and he is faster to generate an attack, like king h8, queen f3,
105
rook g8, rook g1, bishop d7, rook g2, rook f8, rook g1.
106
This is literally what can happen.
107
The move g4 is, I've never seen a move like that, really.
108
To push a same -side pawn and double your own pawns, and that's just better for you.
109
And Noderbergh did not like this move.
110
He did not like it because he reacted in a way that allowed a knight's sacrifice.
111
And then instead of playing king f7, he really did his very best to not mess with the position too much.
112
But he overdid it, and here came f4 anyway.
113
He spent all his time, almost all his time after the move 95.
114
He had 45 minutes on the clock.
115
Now he has nine minutes remaining.
116
And Frederik Svane is just pummeling the punches, just one after the other.
117
I mean, Fredrik, the thing about Germans, like Vincent Keimer, right?
118
Like Matthias Blumbaum.
119
They are very good, very practical, very positional players.
120
It's just the way that they play, all right?
121
For them to have a guy like Fredrik, who is clearly a brawler, like he has really expanded his playing style.
122
I played against him, and both he and his brother, like, again, very good positional, maybe not so comfortable in dynamics as much as positional play because there's a lot of risk.
123
This is insane.
124
And the way that he plays here...
125
Well, I shouldn't praise him too much for the move a5.
126
He needed to continue to rip open the position.
127
I mean, he just couldn't resist.
128
Again, he's a very positional player.
129
He needed to play the move a5 because that would...
130
I don't know.
131
Maybe he's trying to go bishop a4.
132
Whatever.
133
A5 is a mistake.
134
Doesn't really matter because Nojubek loses his way anyway.
135
Here, Nojubek had to lock the position.
136
And he went here.
137
And White just got back to doing what he had to do, which is opening the position.
138
Kaboom.
139
sacks the bishop, takes here.
140
If you take, there's queen f3 check.
141
And Noderbek goes here and loses himself at c.
142
Frederick just takes the pawns, knight c4, knight d6, knight b6.
143
And for the first time in the entire tournament in 30 games, Uzbekistan has lost.
144
Noderbek Yakuboyev goes down.
145
He is, by the way, up to like 2715.
146
They now have another 2700.
147
They have two Noderbeks.
148
It's not fair.
149
No other country has a single Noderbek.
150
And they have two.
151
I don't actually know.
152
Is there a single feet -a -rated player in...
153
Is there a single chess player in the world named Noderbeck who's not from Uzbekistan?
154
Like, just, like, a random Noderbeck somewhere, like, in Switzerland?
155
Anyway, I don't know if Noderbeck is a strictly Uzbek name.
156
Like, I don't know if in Kazakhstan there would be somebody named Noderbeck or in...
157
I don't know.
158
Somewhere else.
159
Kyrgyzstan. But anyway.
160
Yeah, it's fascinating.
161
Frederick is a machine.
162
Six and a half out of eight.
163
Performance rating, 2 ,800 with wins over Hans Niemann, Isik, Isik Can from Turkey, and Nojubek.
164
And we go to board 4.
165
And on board 4, Shamsidin Vokhidov, who's also having a completely amazing tournament, plays the scotch, plays a very solid line.
166
Actually, this is my scotch course, believe it or not.
167
Not even joking.
168
Bishop d3, very chill position, and you trade, you castle, and you can put your pieces like this, and I think it's a very easy and chill position to play, like, if you're master level.
169
um, he plays it a bit differently, uh, he actually just, like, I don't know, I mean, I, I don't think he was playing extremely ambitiously in this game,
170
he just, like, uh, played solid, and black played a little bit more dynamic with his knight and bishop,
171
uh, and bishop e4 just straight up lost the game.
172
this very chill move which doesn't look like I mean what's the blunder right
173
he just blundered queen takes queen and 92 check insane right queen takes queen
174
and you're gonna lose a piece and he took 92 and maybe he just like
175
forgot his rook was hanging I don't know
176
I can't I don't know he might have just like saw his bishop was protected and forgot his rook was hanging
177
and for that to happen at the Olympiad is wild I mean luckily they're still completely in contention for a gold
178
and this was still a very tense game make no mistake Like, Rasmus was stressed, bro.
179
He was stressed.
180
He got down to 50 seconds.
181
This is probably the biggest game of his career.
182
Maybe he had a game to get a GM norm or something.
183
But for Rasmus, I mean, he really made it stressful.
184
He got really low on time.
185
Both guys got into a massive pawn race.
186
But because Black Queen first, he continues the attack, and he ends up winning the game with a Queen check.
187
And, I mean, this was just suffering for Shamsidhan.
188
Like, he just had to sit there for three hours after his opening mistake.
189
I mean, that is just shocking.
190
And poor guy.
191
And that happens.
192
And as I'm filming this, I started filming this 11 minutes ago.
193
They are down 2 -1, and it's not looking good on board 1.
194
Board 1 should be a draw. And it did.
195
It did end as a draw.
196
I didn't want to have the game open.
197
And board 1 is a draw.
198
And, I mean, it was a draw throughout the game.
199
It was an interesting attempt.
200
It was actually a very interesting position.
201
But right around here, I think Noderbeck, this Noderbeck, started realizing, whoa, we're down.
202
And I'm not really in a position.
203
Like, I need to keep pieces on the board because you got to realize I got to win.
204
Like, the mindset is crazy.
205
But he can't win.
206
I mean, he can't win.
207
There's nothing you can do.
208
Like, Vincent's looking at his teammates, and he's like, we're up 2 -1.
209
I'm just going to keep the game very chill.
210
There's nothing to risk.
211
There's nothing that Black can attack here.
212
Noderbeck is a magician, but you can't win positions that are unwinnable.
213
And this is not a winnable position.
214
Actually, he kind of tried to lose.
215
There was a moment here that, you know, he clearly was, like, trying to win.
216
Just, I don't know.
217
He was trying to go out on his sword.
218
And I actually think Vincent put him out of his, like, Vincent could have won this game.
219
He could have actually played for a win.
220
He was winning.
221
But he just took a draw because, I don't know, good sportsmanship in some ways.
222
Like, he probably was just like, I mean, obviously, Nodibrek would not be playing like this normally.
223
Uzbekistan loses.
224
Germany wins.
225
Germany beats Team USA and Uzbekistan.
226
This is one of their greatest runs in recent memory.
227
Certainly a whole lot better than their World Cups.
228
Anyway, you know, maybe too soon.
229
So Uzbekistan just lost, and Germany ties them for first place.
230
And now it's a free -for -all.
231
Now everybody can catch Uzbekistan.
232
Okay?
233
So we go to Team USA.
234
Actually, first I'm going to show you this game, because this is one of the best games I've ever seen in my life.
235
Yo, Wei Yi is so good.
236
It's ridiculous how he played at the candidates, because that tournament just, like, brings the worst out of players.
237
This is Gumulars, who's a, I was going to say young man, but at this point he might be 25 with a family.
238
When I knew about Gumulars, he was a 16 -year -old teenager.
239
Maybe he's, like, 19 or 20 now.
240
So he plays this solid line against Wei Yi, and I think, you know,
241
Wei Yi played this position and developed his pieces and played this line where you don't castle and white doesn't castle,
242
and white is not supposed to play d4 because black just chooses this line not to castle.
243
It's a line where you are completely waiting for this move and it just never comes, right?
244
You could play d4, but if you are uncareful, which he was not careful, the knight ends up just planting itself on the e4 square
245
and black is able to launch an attack because you have to castle at some point.
246
And what happens in this game is he castles and the way he looks at him and is just like,
247
h5 f6 and a couple moves later g5 it's over rook g8,
248
knight f8, takes takes bishop takes kaboom,
249
kaboom kaboom, the rook is trapped g4 and the viciousness with which way he wins this game is sickening.
250
It will make you physically unwell.
251
h3, he moves the, h2 check, okay, maybe the king is safe, yeah, maybe not, d4, now the diagonal is open for black's light squared bishop,
252
the bishop goes to d2, d3, taking more squares away from the white king, the queen goes up, and we pulls out the sword and just,
253
and just slices Simon, like, knight c5,
254
disconnecting the white communication with the rook and
255
if the rook takes the queen comes in and goes to g1 so white goes here
256
he takes the rook he takes the knight maybe for a brief moment gumularis can relax
257
and then wei sacrificed the queen because after takes takes the pawn is promoting White goes king f2,
258
but the king is not safe.
259
Rook to f8, a quiet move, and white cannot take the pawn on c7 because he's blocked by his own pieces.
260
He goes e4, and Wei Yi stops the rook from seeing the square by playing bishop to d1,
261
discover check, and white resigns.
262
Wei Yi beat Gumularz in this game.
263
Like, Gumularz was his arch rival.
264
Like, this was the culmination of a years -long saga.
265
I don't think they've ever exchanged the word.
266
This man took his soul.
267
Gumularz needs to take a shower after this game.
268
Like, I mean, what?
269
This man eviscerated this poor soul.
270
Like, Wei Yi is a crazy chess player.
271
He is so good.
272
He is so freaking good and China beat Poland, but barely.
273
I think this was the only decisive game.
274
Now, Team USA, Team Serbia, we have Caruana Serrana.
275
This is a matchup that happens all the time in online games, and he was just actually recently at the Esports World Cup as well.
276
Fabi in this game playing a sideline variation of the Knight of Sicilian.
277
I haven't seen G3 in a minute.
278
And then Knight D5 is obviously some sort of modern cutting -edge idea.
279
You trade off some pieces, then you play H4, obviously then you, you know, it's a horseless game and you will basically just have positional pressure on black's structure, right?
280
You know, black tries to fight back here, get a little bit more central control.
281
Fabi plays in a very aggressive way, gives away the pawn on g3.
282
Serrana takes it and obliges in playing this complicated game.
283
Then he just like sacks his rook because white's dark squared bishop is apparently even stronger than that piece.
284
Queen e2 played, rook g1 and the bishop comes back, bishop to h3 and Fabi just generates an absolute bulldozer,
285
sacrifices his rook, bishop to f5.
286
The queen just has to be sacrificed.
287
It's a defensive sacrifice.
288
You got to take it.
289
And in the resulting position, Fabi has a queen for a rook and a bishop.
290
A queen can sometimes fail against the rook and a bishop, but not when it has a lot of help and the opposing side has a lot of weaknesses.
291
And as you can see in this position, there are quite a few weaknesses.
292
The king is weak and I'm going to try to promote a pawn.
293
I mean, it's still a very stressful game to play, but Sarana just gives up because he can't leave.
294
He can't push anything because if he pushes just a5, he's never going to be, he doesn't have any counterplay.
295
He can't ever move his rook or his king.
296
He can only move his bishop back and forth.
297
Fabi wins a very nice game.
298
Definitely playing himself into form at the Olympiad.
299
Hans Niemann, Hans Niemann was trying to be subdued in this game by Indic.
300
I mean, Indic played a very innocuous Queen's Gambit he sacrificed material
301
and he actually played c5
302
and trapped hans's queen indich clearly switched up here he was
303
like i'm not gonna play low risk i'm actually gonna try
304
to take his head off hans tried to fight back
305
and now white has to play knight to b1
306
and queen c1 here is maybe a good attempt to trap
307
the queen queen c1 is the idea instead he goes here
308
and hans goes here and like this
309
and indich spent 30 minutes on the move knight b1
310
which is i don't know what on earth he was thinking
311
about to be honest with you uh probably he was calculating
312
maybe the move b4 is also possible uh yeah he he was like okay maybe we'll make a draw
313
and then he didn't he didn't make a draw he could
314
have probably repeated moves i mean i i don't even think
315
there was a way out of it i think maybe you can go here
316
but then there's knight a4
317
and then i don't know i feel you're gonna get your queen trapped
318
but anyway um so he he doesn't do the repetition
319
and tries to play for a win and then goes for knight c3 and hans sacks his queen
320
he gives the queen away for the two bishops
321
and he has a bishop and a rook
322
and two pawns he's actually up material
323
so white is up a queen hans is up 20 minutes on the clock
324
and like when you are up a queen
325
but have no targets it's very different right in the previous in the fabi game the opposing king was weak
326
and didn't have a lot of support around this is a very different story
327
because now we have bishop a6 right there's a lot of pieces here and the white queen can't do anything.
328
The white queen can't take any pieces.
329
The white queen is quite stuck.
330
Here comes bishop b5.
331
Here comes rook c6.
332
The queen now has to get out of the position.
333
Hans Niemann wins his pawn back.
334
And you know who's going to win the game for Hans?
335
The pawns.
336
He has just simply more pawns than his opponent.
337
He will push these pawns through, and white is going to have to defend them with the pawn, with the rook, the knight, and the queen.
338
The queen is not a defensive piece.
339
The queen doesn't stand on the board to protect.
340
We just saw what happened in the Fabi -Sarana game.
341
The queen was protecting, and it became a target for the attack.
342
It just can't work.
343
The knight goes here.
344
Pawn goes here.
345
F3.
346
Hans just slowly makes improving moves.
347
Indic is going to get low on time at some point.
348
He's going to get below 10 minutes.
349
Now your heart rate is elevated.
350
Here comes rook C3.
351
Now you have seven minutes.
352
You're trading off the pawns.
353
You are losing your lines of defense.
354
You lost the B pawn.
355
You're trying to win that pawn back, but the counterplay is now going to be pointed directly at your king.
356
Takes, takes.
357
B3.
358
That's it.
359
The promotion square is covered.
360
Mate is covered this king is safe.
361
These pieces are just juggernauts.
362
They are straight up stronger than the queen.
363
And Hans Niemann wins a beautiful game.
364
Invests in his pawns, protects his king, fights against this king, and Team USA takes down Team Serbia.
365
I think board four was not done yet, but this is a massive win because they were two points behind Uzbekistan, I'm pretty sure.
366
Maybe they were three points.
367
Now they are one point away because they actually, yeah, they only drew yesterday.
368
Insane, insane scenes.
369
Havhanesian versus Jordan van Forrest.
370
This one was incredible.
371
Every single game so far has been just a certified banger.
372
I am going through these a little bit quickly because back -to -back days I've got to go.
373
We have the h4 variation, a6.
374
I've actually played this myself with black.
375
White plays the best way.
376
That's the best move, c5, dc5, knight c6.
377
Now the best move is bishop d3.
378
He knows that.
379
And queen d7.
380
And now white is going to go for a think.
381
I actually have this position in my notes.
382
This is actually also my preparation.
383
The best move here for white is the move knight to f3, bishop g4, and rook to h4.
384
If you don't know that off the top of your head, you're probably not playing that over the board because rook h4 looks like you're straight up a moron.
385
The line is knight f3, bishop g4, rook here, bishop takes, queen takes knight takes queen takes knight takes c takes
386
and then black has to play f6
387
so like you really i mean you really got to know this line he goes here
388
and that's just bad that's not even just like like like
389
bad uh it just gives black a an almost direct path to equalizing the position
390
because he gets to play this move d4
391
and white just has problems white just can't move any piece now he can go knight b6
392
but that would take the eye off of the c5 pawn when the when the plate is too hot, there's a very high chance that you drop it.
393
Both Confucius and Gotham Chess have said that.
394
Queen to e2, knight b4, long castle, we have takes, takes, knight to f5, the knight is getting into g3, the knight is getting into e3.
395
This game is, you know how like there's like graffiti art
396
or there are paintings
397
and like you end up knowing who it is based on
398
the style i i bet you i could look at a game
399
and just tell you there's a good chance it was played by uh jordan
400
because he has a trademark his trademark is like a controlled chaos
401
when he's on form it's kind of a beautiful thing
402
and in this game he just got an advantage from a very dynamic carl khan he applied pressure
403
and we are talking about the usa killer right i mean like hafanasian destroys team usa every olympiad
404
and in this game he had no answer for the relentless.
405
I mean, bro, come on.
406
Like, this is Jordan 101 right here, you know?
407
He had no answer.
408
He had no answer, you know what I mean?
409
Takes, takes.
410
He's just up a rook, and he wins.
411
He wins before his own king can get attacked.
412
GH7, King H7.
413
He is up a rook.
414
Hafkhanesjan plays on a little bit because he thinks Jordan is a moron
415
and doesn't know how to beat him with an extra rook.
416
I'm actually joking.
417
He probably thought he had some perpetual check chances.
418
He doesn't.
419
The king's gonna run out to the side of the board uh
420
and uh the netherlands i do believe beat armenia
421
or maybe they i gotta check oh no no no no
422
no no no no no no no no no no no no they were winning
423
but sean sargassian with the black pieces was a hero
424
and i mean it's kind of nuts
425
because the netherlands have a guy playing with the black pieces
426
who's a marauder like he's he's a pirate i mean jordan's
427
just a pirate like you know what i'm saying he'll steal your booty pause uh and uh he you know he
428
he gets these amazing winning chances with black.
429
And I mean, this is like also an amazing game by Luke.
430
Like here, he can probably just go queen d4.
431
probably just go queen d4 trade off target the outside pawn
432
and then if he wins the outside pawn he has an outside
433
but like queen d4 you know magnus carlson plays queen d4
434
five seconds probably i mean he right it's just like it
435
but luke is like no i'm not gonna let him you
436
know put pressure on me rook f2 fine he's still you know he's still doing good
437
and this was correct by shunt he got some counterplay he sacked the rook for some counterplay
438
and it worked out man i mean it worked out like
439
white went wrong f4 is a very powerful move it's a very nice counterpunch it's a defensive move
440
but then the rook is also stuck
441
and after rook c3 this trade knight comes into c4
442
and black is just dominating black's pieces are better than white's pieces uh
443
and uh we've seen some games in this olympiad when the
444
when the pieces are the heroes and not the rooks
445
and sean sargassian with such an important comeback i mean it is
446
so difficult to to state how uh how important this is for Team Armenia.
447
D2, and just in time, bro, just in time, with Bishop A4 mate, mate on the board.
448
Luke didn't miss it.
449
He's a gentleman.
450
He allows it to happen.
451
And Armenia and the Netherlands fight to a tie after Jordan pulls off a win.
452
And Luke had a very dominant position.
453
But just this little shift, this little defensive shift in the middle game caused everything to fall apart, this Queen C1 and F4.
454
Iran -France at the time that I'm recording this is two to one, and their games were just unfathomable.
455
So this is Mahdi Golami -Orimi, an Iranian grandmaster.
456
That's Etienne Bakro, a legend of French chess, and the game just gets going quickly.
457
Boom.
458
The knight is sacrificed.
459
The king is brought out and just attacked.
460
Goes back to his home square.
461
e4 attacking in the middle of the board.
462
35 minutes spent on this move by Bakro.
463
Not the best move, by the way.
464
That's human chess.
465
And he takes on h7.
466
Bishop g6 is checkmate it's mate
467
but that's why he goes here to free up the d
468
file for the king he goes queen f3 attacking his rook
469
the bishop counter attacks the bishop checks on g6 this entire
470
game is a sprint queen gets out of danger pawn goes to c2 rook is trapped
471
and the rook cannot go to d1 he takes the no
472
he doesn't take the pawn plays bishop to d2 attacking the
473
knight on a5 the knight moves now you can bring a rook to the middle
474
or you can go back
475
and take the pawn back row sacks the knight over here what even what even is
476
that move how do i even explain
477
that you can just play rook fd1 in this position right yes
478
but then i go queen g4
479
and i offer you a queen trade defended by the knight
480
that is hanging and you can't take this because queen h4 here
481
and then there's like all sorts of mating ideas
482
so the knight is on h2 there are multiple brilliant moves
483
rook d1 he just slides the king cool as a cucumber
484
out of the way back row playing a legendary game
485
but here he makes a mistake two minutes on the clock
486
he plays this move with 11 seconds this is a panic move and before you know it, actually, by the way, that wasn't even the best move, before you know it, two blunders in a row,
487
rook h7, queen g4, the nerves just got to him, he had calculated probably bishop takes h7, but he had forgotten about bishop f5 check,
488
and he doesn't lose the rook for the bishop, he straight up loses a rook, he just loses a rook,
489
and in the skirmish, Golami defeats Etienne Bacro, but the other two French boards won, and I think it was two to one,
490
and we're going to check in with the standings uh in a moment uh
491
and this is a person
492
that is having having a heroic tournament i i am a
493
big alua fan we are big alua fans we're also big
494
vishali fans on this channel it's india it's kazakhstan uh
495
and it was a very symmetrical
496
and very chill little queen's gambit bishop takes a lot of
497
pieces were getting traded black transformed the structure the position got dynamic
498
and you know what happens when the plate gets hot right
499
you might drop it you might drop it bishop c6 was
500
it was a bad move it allowed alua to connect her
501
pawns you know you never allow a wrestler to connect their
502
hands those who know queen e4 the pawn keeps moving forward
503
the bishop is doing a good job blocking the position
504
but it's all about the pawns here alua breaks apart the
505
bind she's gonna play a takes b5 at some point rook
506
d4 there's a takes b5 rook c5 the bishop is getting chased around the board the knight is coming in
507
and white just cannot stop the pressure here.
508
The pawns are split.
509
She wins material.
510
B6.
511
It doesn't matter because the pawn is promoting.
512
Both sides look like they're going to queen, but only one side is going to land the check.
513
Check.
514
Check.
515
Check.
516
And she is going to check her until she wins her pawn, and Vaishali resigns, and Alua is on pace to make a grandmaster norm for
517
Team Kazakhstan at the Olympiad insane absolutely insane on the women's
518
side China also had a very clutch win on their last
519
board for the women's side Netherlands lose to Uzbekistan Kazakhstan India
520
draw China is in the lead right now I think tied
521
with Mongolia Armenia is about to take down Team USA
522
so right now China is winning Mongolia Kazakhstan are a point
523
out with three rounds to go China a hero on board four and for the open for the open section It's Uzbekistan,
524
Germany, and then a, oh my God, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, seven teams are a point away.
525
Uzbekistan is probably going to play US because the US must have the highest rating now, right?
526
It's probably Uzbekistan, USA.
527
I don't know.
528
It's probably Germany, they play China.
529
Yeah, Germany, I don't know, guys.
530
The Olympiad has been blown open.
531
Let's go.
532
We are going to have an incredible finish to this tournament.
533
I'm hyped.
534
I am very hyped.
535
And this might actually change, but I think all the games are done.
536
Nuts.
537
Get out of here.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
