 | | al wazir: I think 25. d7 gives black more problems than 25. dxc7. Now Rxg7 and Bxg7 followed by d8=Q are both strong threats. |

 | | Messiah: I sincerely hope the assignment of the title "Dubov's Immortal" is premature, although it must be insanely difficult to play a significantly more pleasing game than this one. Daniil is a very good raw material for being a big big future champion - nothing is settled, nothing is guaranteed, we should wait patiently for at most a 10-15 years to see what eventually happens. I think he will never reach the toppest-tightest top for a prolonged time, remaining a Chigorin/Keres/Portisch/Korchnoi/Timman/Ivanchuk-
-like evergreen player with an average of 1-5 ultra-excellent games per year. Go Doobie! Have a huge future! |
|
| Dec-29-20 | | areknames: Like has been pointed out 7...d5 looks normal here and should perhaps have been played but surely Dubov was prepared for that. |
|
| Dec-29-20 | | Ironmanth: Wonderful game; can't wait to see what Daniil might eventually do at the very highest echelon...no wait, he's already there! |

 | | offramp: There are loads of chess "Immortal" games, but there is one that stands out: Smyslov vs Filip, 1958.
The two tallest players in chess history produce the <I'm More Tall Game>. |

| Dec-29-20 | | fisayo123: This is a great great game but its arguable if its even Dubov's best game or the best game of the tournament. Matlakov and Fedoseev played an amazing game as well. Dubov's hand was all but forced to make the Queen sac. It wasn't a bolt from the blue. So its gotten a lot of publicity but labelling it as an immortal game is quite excessive. |

| Dec-29-20 | | rune ohlsson: Great game ??
12. --- g5
13. Bg3 a5
14. bxa5 Bxa5
15. Bb3 0-0
How could White handle that? |
|
| Dec-29-20 | | goodevans: <fisayo123 > You might well be right about M Matlakov vs V Fedoseev, 2020. Awesome game. |

| Dec-29-20 | | RandomVisitor: After 20.Rxe6 black has good drawing chances in a pawn-down ending by returning the material:

 | | fredthebear: Some say Dubov made the "Move of the Year" in 2019: D Dubov vs A Giri, 2019 |
|
| Jan-05-21 | | Everett: Doesn’t 7..d5 solve Black’s opening problems here? |
|
| Jan-18-21 | | Zibbit: I analyzed this fantastic game here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRO... Also check out Lagarde trying out this idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Re... |

| Jan-26-21 | | phenstyle: 6. b4 is like the 5th line the engine sees, it's a mistake but really complicated..how come a pro can't punish it...I would get punished for it lol |

 | | 0ZeR0: Even if Dubov never ascends the chess throne or becomes a top ten player I think he will always be a player to watch. One who is highly interesting and entertaining. This is also how I feel about Wei Yi. |

| Jul-25-21 | | VerySeriousExpert: About the early opening stage.The typical Italian blow 7...d5! could lead to Black's very good positions. Further, I disagree with some experts that "Dubov started in Evans gambit style", sorry. Thus, it's Bird's Attack style. After 6.b4?! Bb6 the straight White's attack 7.e5 d5 8.Bb5 Ne4 9.cxd4 (or 9.Nxd4 Bd7!) makes the material equal. But Wing ("Evans") gambit style can lead to an advantage in several theoretical cases (first of all, I recommend here the following article by Yury V. Bukayev: https://chessproblem.my-free-games.... ). |
