The REACH program is an acronym that stands for Recreation, Employment, Activity, Community, and Health. And so we try to do different things as a group to focus on that acronym. In October, a couple of us from the staff went to Dallas to visit Rise Dallas and attend the fundraiser. And we went to a couple of other programs out there and one of the programs was Live Beyond just to make that connection and see Coach's family, Coach Dallings family. And as we were leaving, I saw a donation box and from there it kind of sparked a conversation with their development director, Tegan Anderson. And so we immediately started communicating about ways that REACH could help and I thought in particular our REACH group just because of most of these fellows and ladies know Coach Dallings and they knew Johnny and had a friendship with him. And I just thought that that might show full circle. Tegan sent me a list of high priority needs and so we picked about eight or nine things and went shopping one afternoon and have had two different times that were stuffing the stockings and then tomorrow we leave for Dallas first thing in the morning. Where we're directly sending the stocking to or where Live Beyond does, they have a school called Johnny's Kids School and it is basically the same as Rise. It provides services to children with and without special needs which is the inclusive model which is just like Rise. And like I keep mentioning that full circle, Coach Dallings invested in the lives of every one of these REACH employees, all eight of them. And that's the thing about Coach Dallings. He helped us a lot and I feel like it's our turn. We need to help him and he's very, very passionate about it. And so we're going to help them.


The 433rd Airlift Wing conducted a Civic Leader tour, which included informational briefings and a C5M Super Galaxy flight to Joint Base Lewis-McCord, Washington. Well, the reason we do this is to show them what the reserves do. We bring people in all the time, community and civic leaders, to show them what we do here at JBS Lake Lackland, but this allowed them to take them somewhere else. Included in the tour, the Western Air Defense Sector conducted a briefing on their purpose and mission, and the Lewis Army Museum provided a guided tour of Army history. These are stories that we're going to be telling for years to everybody we can. So again, it's an outreach from us to the populations that the citizens that we interact with. So I think that's the biggest question I have coming out of this, is how do we engage, how do we get more involved as civilians and employers, what else can we do more and better and different to help support the cause? These Civic Leader tours provide insight into various military installations to learn more about different components in the Air Force Reserve. Reporting from Joint Base San Antonio, Lackland, Texas, I'm Senior Airman Brittany Wich.


everyone and welcome. This is Melissa Armel with the Stock Swooshing Review and the Stock Swoosh Show Live Trading Room Advanced Trader Tracking for 2020. So this is starting January through the last day of February, which is today. Actually, today is not the last day of February, the last trading day of February, sorry, which is February 28th. Results so far year to date are 163403. This is with an average trading risk per trade of around 2,500. Some were slightly less, just so you know. But when you're taking trades very quickly in the morning day trading, this is not an exact science. You just get the share quantity you can, but your risk should be close to equal for each trade. So this is an advanced risk. And I've been keeping the same risk for a number of years here. I mean, honestly, I think once you get comfortable with a risk that you're better off almost staying with it, just for a long time, and then just improve and get better. And I think that I'm just so comfortable, so comfortable with what I'm doing now that, you know, I'm just in a groove. So the year has been off to a good start. And with the selling this week, it's been great to short. So if you'd like to sign up for my course, you are eligible then to join the live trading room. The trading room is only eligible once you do the class. You can email me and Melissa at the stockswush.com or call me at 929-3200 Gap. Follow me on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube or Skype. So right now we're in earning season. This is the end of earning season. We've got retail next week, some more retail. And then we'll have second quarter earning season. There's four quarterly earnings season and that makes it a great time to trade specifically gaps. And that's what I focus on. That's what I do. It has also been a very active year. I will say that too. Very, very busy. It was busy this week and it's just been a busy year. Most of the trades that I could do in the trading room are shorts. Some at times I come along, but most of them are shorts. Okay? Because the main meat and potatoes class I teach once a month is the bearish golden gap class. So beginning of the year was off.  Bea was a winner to start off the year. Bea's been a great winner this year. Tessa lost first trade, big winner the second trade. WBA failed, Spy and Qs were two winners. KSS was a winner. That was a nice gap. Full locker lost, six lost. The first trade, the retake worked. And then EXAX was a nice winner on the 13th. Well, Spargo lost, JP Morgan Chase lost. Off in the 15th.  Spy was a winner. Qs was a winner. And Apple was a winner all on that one day on the 16th. Then on the 17th, Spy won.  Close in the 20th was Martin Luther King Day. UAL was a winner in the 21st and no trains on the 22nd. That's rare, but sometimes there isn't anything the rates put well per my system. The diamonds lost in the first trade. Second one worked and CMCSA was a big winner on the 23rd. 24th was DFS winner. 27th win lost in both the trades. DFS was a small winner. Spy was break even. AAL lost and Spy was a winner on the 27th. 28th MMM was break even. Second trade won. PFE was a winner. Both trades. That was a good day. AMD was a winner on the 29th. Facebook lost in the 30th. Microsoft lost in the 30th. Cree didn't really go anywhere. Small gain and DD was the big winner on the 30th. And then the end of July we had WWE which failed twice. CVX worked in Facebook then finally worked in the next day in the 31st. No trades in the third.  Microsoft, big winner in the fourth. MRK was a loser on the 5th. Ford was a winner and SNAP was a big winner in the 5th. TWLO lost. QCOM lost and Microsoft was a winner in the 6th.  Marvell was a winner and T2 was a nice winner in the 7th. Then Lily lost.  First trade. Second one winner and the Q's were a winner. Lyft was a winner on the 12th.   That just didn't work at all. 14th was Yelp lost. Cisco 1 EXP was a loser on both the first and second trade. Then the third one finally took off. That was a wild one. Swung, swung, swung up, swung down. CAG was a winner on the 18th. The 19th was a spy in Apple. Two nice ones. 20th was a wild day. LB did not work. 6th did not work. Apple did not work. The spy did not work. BA was break even. MS was a winner. 6th next trade was a loser. Viacom was a winner. AAN was the big winner for the day and Stamp was a winner. So that was a very active day on the 20th. Viacom lost FSLF, R1 and BA won on the 21st. 24th was AAL. Nice winner. EXAX won on the 25th. T. Tull was the winner, the 26th.     This was on the 27th. AAL was break even. NCCL was a winner. SPY was a winner. Qs was a winner. BA was a winner. And BA was done twice. That was the day that the market collapsed on the 27th. That was yesterday. And that was just a really, really, really crazy wild day. BY&A was a nice winner today on the 28th. So an advanced trader risk is around 2500 on average. Some trades were slightly less because again you want to make sure you get in very quickly. But just know that your risk per trade should be the same or close to the same every trade you take for consistent results. You cannot vary your risk every trade. That's how you stay steady with the results. So if you take two trades and two or winners and one's a loser, you'd be up. If you end up taking three trades with all different risks, you don't know what results you'll have. You can't oversize yourself and then that one will be the one that loses. Even if you take one or two or three trades that win, you could still be down. You have to have the same risk every trade. I teach that and go over that more in the class. But trading is something you can do to make more money for yourself. And you learn how to do it through me in the Golden Gap course. Next class is March 21st and 22nd. 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time. Cost of the class tuition is $69.99. Classes online. You can be anywhere in the world and take it. If you want to sign up, you can email me at Melissa at thestockswish.com. This is the class dates for March. So put it on your calendar. The combo deal is $74.99. You save if you do the trends two classes for one price. This is a good deal. And then you do the Saturday, Sunday, and then the class on Tuesday. Okay. This is a nice deal. If you're interested, you learn the long-term trends as well. So this is a new year. It's a new you. Tomorrow's leap day. 2020 has started out huge for me in the Stock Swoosh and I'm very interested to see what the rest of the year brings. When the opportunity is there, I'm definitely spotting it. That's my job. That's my job 100% to find the opportunity and spot it when it happens and when it sets up. And I've been doing that all year for myself and my clients. If you're interested, email me at Melissa at thestockswish.com. Have a great weekend everybody.


He is known as the beast for his aggressive and fearless play tonight's master class is by Naanadar, then Grandmaster Adiban. Welcome. Yeah, hi. Nice to be here. Alright Adiban, now before we start, we have to address the elephant in the room. What happened today? Ah, today? Okay. You were looking for an elephant. Yeah. No, no. What happened today in your game? No, I chose a complicated line and I was not expecting some night decent and then I was trying to recollect my prep and I could not and then I went for this very interesting bishop of sound sacrifice and I am getting like three pawns for a piece. Actually I think at some point, yeah, I have to take the knight on d4 at some point and then I get like three pawns for a piece and a very interesting battle but for some reason I played fast and it was not a good idea and then the situation just got worse and worse, yeah. Well, one of your qualities is that despite having a bad day in office, you're often seen with a very positive attitude and you've always got that smile on your face. Yeah, that's true. What's the secret? I don't know. I remember having like, this is just one game. I remember having like a very bad day where I lost many games in World Rapid and stuff, World Rapid and Blitz and then with it I wanted to take a picture where I was trying to be sad. But I could not, just I could not bring myself to be sad. No, it's just overall positive attitude and just, I know this is just one game and I know it's not going to stop me so I just don't feel sad about it and also I feel like after every loss I come back even stronger, so yeah. Yeah, you're known for your comebacks. Yeah. Right, now what do you have in store for us today? Yeah, this is one of my favorite games. I played with Sergey Teviakov, it was a long time back and it always had a special memory because he was one of the strongest players I had bet at that time. Okay, still is because I think at the time of this game his rating was 2698. And also Sergey I think has, he has been holding the record of unbeaten streaks actually, so he has been having that for quite some time, which okay, recently was bet by Dingler and of course with the soundtrack. But yeah, so yeah, that's why it's, I thought it's an interesting game which I wanted to share with the audience. We can't wait, hope it has all your aggressive and tactical style in it. But before that, give us a little background about the game. Was it an important round? What were your thoughts going into it? Do you remember? Yeah, it was in the Orissa Open in India and no, actually the tournament was pretty much normal because I was more or less playing, I think lower rated opponents and this was my first game with the Grandmaster. And funnily, after I won this game, everyone was asking me if I made a Grandmaster norm. So you were not a Grandmaster already? No, no, no. So I was like 2493 or something. So I thought, okay, everyone was asking me if I made a Grandmaster norm after this game, but I said the minimum criteria is to meet three Grandmasters and even I won't be able to fulfill even that because the last round was one more Grandmaster and totally it's two, that's it. But still, it was a very nice game and yeah, I think I was preparing till three in the morning, so it was like a crazy night. Is that normal for you to prepare for, you know, because you don't come across as... Yeah, because this was probably, I think, the strongest player I had faced at that time. So I was really taking it very seriously. Yeah, also you were playing to become a Grandmaster around that period, so you were very motivated. Yeah, yeah, to be sure, yeah. Should we dive into it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure. Okay. You wanted to talk about this... We will be talking about... Just later, yeah. About what? About this, my victories. Yeah, we will, we'll come back to... So Adiban is very excited to talk about his many wins, which we will be very soon, but first let's start with the game. Yes. Okay, so let's go right into it. I'm black, I'm... Against Sergei Tevriko? Yeah. So all this is well known. Okay. So the Roy Lopez? Yes. Okay, now I think we can start off... I have to ask you, Adiban, there'll be, you see, a lot of players actually going in for the Italian instead of the Spanish, instead of Bishop B5, we see Bishop C4 happening more and more now. What do you think is the reason for this trend? No, I think one of the main reasons is this Berlin. To avoid the Berlin. Yeah, to avoid the Berlin and Italian was... No, Berlin was well researched and in the top level, after a while, everyone knows this line so well that they needed to find a new system where they can analyze and try to explore new grounds and Italian was the perfect ground for it because Scorch was having this droish tendencies and... Italian, the thing is, you can aim for a fighting game. Right. And previously, I used to use Italian in my younger days when I wanted a fight away from theoretical battles but nowadays, everyone is playing that even... That has become theoretical, so nowadays there's no such thing as... So we might see after Bishop B5, Bishop C4, we might see a Bishop D3 development or something. Hopefully not, but. Sorry, Bishop? To go Bishop D3 instead of... Yeah, yeah, something like that. I hope not, though. All right, so this was a Roy Lopez and it continued with C3 here. Yeah, okay, so I just wanted to know, like, who knows the name of the line? Stunned. Stunned, yeah. It's the first official world champion. So I just like to play the... I mean, openings of the world champions, so I chose this and... Who's your favorite world champion because... I don't know too many. Okay, I think the first book I read was... Of Michael Tall, my life and games, or actually, it was Attack with Michael Tall. And another book was My Memorable 60 Games by Bobby Fisher. So, like, I always have preference... Tal and Fisher. Tal and Fisher, yeah. And if there was one thing that you had to say you learned from them, from studying their games? Yeah, Tal is his fearlessness. Like, you would just go for the kill right from move one. So that and Fisher was like... From move one. Yeah, move one, yeah. And Fisher was this professional, yeah. He would be like the pro... Because Tall was playing for just enjoyment and he just wanted to have fun. But Fisher, he wanted to win the game. He wanted... Okay, he wanted not so much as enjoying, but he just wanted to beat his opponent. So these two things I really liked from these champions here. So combining these two would be... Yeah, that would be... The ultimate. Yeah, yeah. All right. So C3, yeah. Short-casel is one of the main lines and I think it's more popular nowadays. And C3 is... It allows like a very posing line with F5. So to avoid this, many players, they try to go short-casel. So F5, yeah, already it starts, yeah, like I said. So here you have... Okay, there's one line with D4, but it goes in some PSAC. So EFI is more or less the main line. Anyone in the audience who plays this line? No. Well, maybe after this game. Hopefully they will get inspired. So yeah, Bishop F5. And yes, now there are a couple of lines. Like there's one crazy line with D4, E4 and D5. And it's actually a peace sacrifice if I remember correctly. Yeah, like white even doesn't take on C6 and just goes for a... But it's like super complex and... Yeah, generally white goes for like safety first, yeah. And now, yeah, Bishop D3. Just stopping D4 and controlling everything. So Bishop D3 prevents white development on the queen side. On the queen side, yeah. So rookie one, yeah, pretty much forced. Yeah, now like... Okay, I played Bishop E7, but I want to ask why not Knight F6? All right, this is for the audience. One for the audience that... What happens after Knight F6? Like there's a difference between this and Bishop E7. So... So... Huh? Oh, I take on E5, yeah, I think... Let's have that on the board. So we have a suggestion of take on E5 directly, but probably takes back... Yeah, it takes back. So rookie E5, but Bishop E7. Now, the problem is like the pieces are not ready, yeah, for getting compensation, and also I just need one more short castle. Yeah, also one of the reasons I wanted to show this game is... When I was taught chess, I learned these three golden principles of chess, which I'm curious if you guys know. Why don't you tell us? Tell us while they're having a think. What are the three principles? Three principles. Does anyone have a guess? Or they're still thinking? They're still thinking. But tell us a bit, while we have our audience giving this position a thought, how much of this obviously was part of your preparation, right, till now? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. So do we have anyone or... with any ideas in this position? Yes, that's the one. Oh, good one. Yeah. That's the difference between Bishop E7. So you... The pin. Yeah, the pin, yeah. So it's like a super, like double pin, yeah. So Bishop A4 and Ruki 1. So this is the reason why Black goes Bishop E7 first to prevent this idea. So after Knight D4, it's very unpleasant, I mean... I don't remember the exact evaluation, but I think, yeah, it was not pleasant for Black, if I don't... Right. Yeah, because Queen D7... You've got Queen F3 as well. Yeah, Queen F3 idea is there, yeah. Maybe have that on the board for a moment. Yeah, so Queen D7, yeah. On the pin continues, yeah. Attack on D3 and attack on C6, so it gets... Yeah, so E4, the problem is going into D3, yeah. So this pin is still a problem, yeah. Nice. Yeah, so Knight of 6, that's why I'm in Bishop E7. Yeah, I remember once it was in 2016, I think. It was in Hussleback and Open in Sweden, and the game was... They were not starting the first round, and... So we didn't know... Okay, we were a group of youngsters, and we had a lot of time, so we started analysing this portion out of nowhere, and Shiro came across our analysis, and he suggested Queen B3, and he said this was his preparation from some time back. And did you use that in this game then? Or this was after this game happened? No, this was in like 3 years back or something, 2016, yeah, so just... No, it's just Curia, like it goes something like this, and Queen D5, and it's like... A mess. Yeah, a mess, yeah. This is a very typical Shiro position as well. And yeah, also I played on-game with Nils, actually, in the same system. I was playing this game, yeah. So Ruki 3, yeah, the point is, okay, he wants to kick the Bishop, and... So White basically wants to get D4? Yes. As soon as he can. Yeah, and the main line is Bishop C2, actually. This is the easier way, yeah. So to take, take Knight of 6 and D4, and this is the main line, and yeah, it's probably around slightly better for White or equal, yeah. So this is what I was more or less expecting. Yeah, but Ruki 3 actually had played some games, so I was kind of prepared for this. And did Sagar take some time for this move? No, he played it quite fast. He played it fast, okay. Yeah, if I remember correctly, yeah. So, and I was happy to get this E4. Yeah, so now, now why not Knight B4? When you say you were happy to get E4, tell us a bit. I don't know, basically, like, my preparation continues, yeah, so... Okay, so you were still in your book. And you've got Adibhan's trainer. Yeah, he wanted to see... Mr. Uplava joining us. He wanted to see me. He's just making sure he's done a good job with you. No, I thought after my game today, he will not join. You ever? He will not join. Maybe it's just the wine. Yeah. Yeah, okay, so the principles, the three principles of chess which I learned was captioning the center on peace development, which is what my opponent didn't follow and I didn't follow today, so always develop your pieces. It's never a good idea not to do it. And, yeah, the third one is... What was that? Castling, yeah. Okay, so knight E1. Okay, so you're still planning to get rid of this bishop at any cost. Yeah, so now any such jumps, how I continue. This is a very interesting position because black is not fully developed here. But neither is white on the queen side. Yeah, but yeah, I think black is a little bit better developed, maybe, I guess. Then? Yeah. Some of these, all these queen side pieces make a very weird impression. Yeah. So we have a suggestion, sorry? B5. B5 followed by 95. B5 followed by 95. Yeah, I think that was one of the moves I was considering. Let's have it on the board. Yeah. So we have a suggestion with B5 here. Yeah, but I think probably I can play bishop B3. 95 was the idea. Yeah, and I think I can go here if it works. Yeah, but okay, it's still knight C4. I'm not at all sure what is happening. Maybe I think probably to take here but then still ID3. Yeah. B5 is an interesting suggestion. Yeah, but for some reason. Bishop C2? Maybe just bishop C2, yeah. Knight C2. Or queen C2. Maybe, maybe you want to go queen H5 as well. Knight C2, you have to still go for knight H6. Yeah, but somehow I'm not at all sure. Maybe D4. Yeah, D4, but at least Hx and short casurates. Yeah, it's still game. So B5 is a reasonable suggestion. Yeah, B5 is reasonable, yeah. And B5, if I take the knight with the queen H1 check. Yeah, this is what I was about to suggest. G6. G6. Queen D5. Yeah, queen D7. Bishop D1. Oh, this is, no, this is beautiful. Maybe bishop D3, yeah. And yeah, it's, yeah, not enough. Because bishop D1, knight F6 is still possible, but now it looks. No, now it's still possible, but you can just take the pawn and bishop E6 is right there. Yeah, it's not a good question. Yeah, B5, I think the main problem is it weakens the light squares. So. Right. I'm going to find something more in the spirit of the position. To play in the spirit of the position. Should I take a guess? Am I allowed? Yeah, but you can see. Oh yeah, you're right. I actually had. You can see the gift. It's true, but to be honest, I hadn't seen it until you mentioned it, but that was going to be my move. Yeah, okay. So that's. So I assume you would come up with that. So do we have another suggestion? Very interesting. Yes. That is correct. Yes. So that's. Yeah, basically we are not going to allow in time to take this piece here. So now I remember it was some line with rook K3 and knight F6. Like basically like I'm going to give up this D3 pawn and go for short castle and try to go for some attack initiative. But yeah, he played knight into D3. So this, I was actually expecting it. Yeah, because he had already played rook E3. So I was like, like I said, I was preparing for quite a long time. So once again, what did you have in mind if you just moved the rook? Knight F6, right? Just simply knight F6. Yeah. So rook H3, I think just knight F6. And white's lack of development is very obvious in the situation. And if he just takes on D3 at the moment. So rook D3. Yeah, I think just... Did you just want to go short castle or what? No, I was just trying to remember. I think maybe it was something like D5 maybe. D5, someones are still this. Yeah, so bishop D3 and now knight here maybe. But again, it's super messy. It was long back, so I don't really remember. But 95, this looks good, no? No, but I'm just not sure if bishop D7, D8, what is happening. Right. Queen H5, knight D6, queen H7. Yeah, but still, the problem is, the queen's idea is somewhat plain. So it will take some time to come. Did he think for a while before he moved or did he go for this exchange sacrifice really quickly? Yeah, quite quickly, yeah. I think maybe I could have thought here but somehow he wanted to play part, yeah. So yeah, now okay, it's pretty much D3, now knight B4. Yeah, now the second question. Okay, now the second question. So now how to continue? And remember this is Adibhan playing with black so that's a big hint. And the first suggestion that comes in bishop F2, and it's obviously the right one. Yeah, yeah, just play like me. Yes, let's see. Okay, basically we don't have time to go back because knight in the C6 is threatened and the time is of the essence so just we go for that back. Yeah, now how to continue? Actually in some ways while you have a think, I mean let's just see this position here. Yes. You would have had to see bishop F2 before. Yeah, yeah. Simply because it's probably the only move in the position, right? I will tell you when my preparation actually entered. So we are still in your preparation. So bishop F2 here and white has to take. All right, how do you follow this up? Yes. Who said bishop F2? I did. So I have to continue. I'm thinking of myself. Knight in C6. Sorry, we have a suggestion. I was talking. Knight in C6. Where did it fall? Just now, right? I think that you can just probably take on C6, no? If knight in C6. Also, you have to be careful about queen H5 check because you will not have G6 anymore. Yeah, this queen has to... So this can be unpleasant. Yeah. Because now the 8-6 knight hangs. Yeah, it's more or less the same idea but I just changed the order of the moves. So queen H4 check first. So now I have to go king G1. And now... Yeah, knight in H6. This is a little bit better than knight of 6 for some reason. Now I'm trying to remember why. Yeah, I think just the e-sound is under control. And you keep that while open. So knight in 6 is slightly better place than knight of 6. So this is what it did. And yeah, he took knight C6. So the big difference with including queen H4 check is that the H5 is under control. So your idea was correct. Yes, as always. Exactly, yeah. Nice. So now they are thinking like me. So it's easy. So the audience just suggested castle. I have to ask how. Where is that coming from? Just to get the rook into the game. Also because it feels like the only move. Yeah, actually we don't really have an option. Because you can't really take on C6 because white after taking is just completely winning in this position. So now black has a really big threat of checkmate. So you're threatening queen F2 and queen F1 next. Okay, maybe this time for a change to avoid this. Well you know what you have to play against.  Yes, yes. How do you feel now? There's been a lot of talk and controversy around opening preparation. The fans at least don't like it a lot because they feel that chess has become a lot about openings. As a strong grandmaster you can't really avoid opening preparation. Do you think it's healthy for chess? Yeah, okay because now for example today I think I lost mainly because of opening. So it has now become a major part of our career. So we need to be always ready. And yeah, I think the main problem with why fans don't like it is the increase in draws. There are just so many draws because if you play correctly it's always ending in a draw. And the computers are not at all helping for this because always if you switch on the evaluation it's always like 0.00. That's why people are calling classical chess as dying so that's why you should focus more on rapid and blitz. But I think still there are a lot of areas which are not explored. Even I think Dingle Run it continues to come up with some interesting ideas. Yeah, so I think it's just you have to strike a balance because it's part of opening is always going to be a major part of the game so we can't really avoid it. And how do you feel about this whole argument around classical chess becoming more and more difficult because of this results that we often get especially in the top elite events. The world championship got decided in the tie breaks. We had no result in the classical format. Hikaru won the entire grand chess store without winning a single game in any of the classical events. Do you see that do you think rapid and blitz is the future of chess? In a way it feels it's a little bit sad that the world championship is decided by rapid because we have a separate world rapid championship few in that you are the rapid world champion but not when you go through the classical cycle. People are not ready to take so much risks in a game because of they just want to be safe and I think that is the main reason. I still like classical chess more but at the same time I'm also for me always rapid and blitz was for fun but nowadays I see that the world cup and a lot of even the world championship is decided by rapid so it's becoming more and more important. I think you should be ready in all formats. In fact we had an interview with Hikaru recently where he said that a world champion should be strong in all formats which is why he thought that Magnus would be the favorite to win because it's very important to have a world champion who is good at blitz rapid. This was a little bit silly in my opinion because he went through all the difficulties of candidates and stuff so if Karwana won the match I think he fully deserved to be the world champion but even he could not I think he himself did not play up to his usual self like he was playing more defensive like I think he was happy to go to the tie break but where he actually did not have so much of a chance so he should have actually like someone was telling me that you should have started the match as minus one then maybe you would have taken it more seriously because like going to rapid is a big handicap for him because Kalsun was clearly superior to him so yeah I think no I think it doesn't matter that the current world champion has to be the best but there have been instances in the past where like I think Fisher was world champion in blitz and also Mikhail Chal was like he was also very good in blitz so I think all this world champion so I think in a way it makes sense but still you cannot discount Fabi just because he is not good in rapid yeah that's what right but talking about draws with your style of play that's obviously not a problem for you because we often see yeah I always find a way to make it interesting that's true okay so coming back to this position any suggestions you had quite a lot of time to think let's go for the equestrian ah yes queen e2 interesting yeah I think I wanted to just continue with IG4 yeah okay maybe yeah yeah I think it was something like this if I remember and the idea is to play queen g3 or to take on h3 so if he goes 97 check here do you just move your yeah this is the point to just ignore it actually and the threat is knight h3 or queen g3 so it's really quite nasty yeah this was actually I think what he should have played actually if I remember queen e2 was correct but I think what he did was wrong actually played h3 he also prevented the back rank with a different move or I think one more way was an id sound check just to distract the queen actually during the game I think I would have taken it but later on I found that king h3 was actually even stronger the same idea just ignoring and going for that attack yeah basically I think no the line is like in old I can now tell you in old annotations it shows as clearly winning for black but ok the computer doesn't exactly agree but probably the computer at that time was only climbing it slightly better for black so that is the assessment of the portion so even h3 yeah so now I think it's interesting for black how I continued so now the question for our audience how to continue the momentum of the attack I mean let's just if you actually take stock of situation you've got he's got three pieces for a rook at the moment yeah three pieces yeah maybe the clue is ok I think this is the reason why queen e2 was maybe a little bit better than h3 and that's interesting yes so queen f2 king h2 I guess on id f5 yeah yeah but can I do queen g4 maybe but still you can go knight h4 and try the knight of 3 check but then maybe knight d4 I'm just still thinking if I should distract knight e1 let's just have queen g4 on the board so if knight h4 with the idea of knight f3 and queen g1 can white go knight d4 here and rook f4 yeah this is dangerous no yeah it looks very dangerous maybe even rook f4 here or even c5 maybe because just get rid of this knight I mean whites biggest disadvantage is that none of his pieces on the queen side are this is what you're playing against yeah maybe so queen f2 maybe I should go king h1 yeah but then you have at least queen f1 and take this guy so the count will be a little bit less telling three pieces yeah now it will become 2 yeah so king h2 yeah knight f2 yeah this is a good suggestion actually I didn't see this so your threat is knight h4 so can white just go knight d4 right now you'll anyways go knight h4 and can I go oh yes this looks good knight h4 now and then queen e2 no queen e2 knight f3 sorry you have to go queen e1 let's just have that on the board let's just show our audience that queen e2 doesn't work so if you take knight f3 your queen hands otherwise it's queen g1 mate so instead can white defend with queen g1 queen g1 then queen f4 right yeah but this is probably the way queen f4 king h4 king h4 yeah oh maybe g3 so you are on fire yes queen g1 nice defense yeah so this is maybe c5 c5 yeah I think okay probably it should not work but I was thinking something like this oh this is nice to run the king I mean white does have a lot of pieces yeah but I'm worried that it'll be checkmate just take the knight and okay I think it should be yeah but okay it's not made yet yeah it's not made yet so I don't even want to take this yeah okay so I have to give everything why can't you go knight e6 yeah I think he wanted rook f6 then d4 okay we want to do this rook f5 and g6 yeah but I think same d4 yeah bishop g5 no okay I just want to give as much pieces as possible yeah checkmate yeah d3 yeah okay knight e6 rook f6 and then d4 yeah this looks like not possible yeah somehow it's not and maybe it's even stronger to include bishop b3 check so that my knight on e6 is defended yeah but anyway it can't really take that oh yeah so maybe it is better to yeah rook f8 maybe yeah d3 check and then knight e6 yeah and then you get your d4 yeah yeah knight a3 like I was trying to save every too many pieces four pieces for a rook might just be too much if there is no made yeah it's not enough yeah so this was interesting line queen f2 king h2 knight h5 good suggestion knight f5 yeah so any other suggestions in this position h3 alright let's try that so we have queen f2 king h2 and rook f3 yeah what is the idea exactly because you're not really threatening rook h3 right knight d4 let's say come back yeah and white will yeah I think some are just I think black is not a massive material problem going on but he has no risk I think he can always make a draw with knight g4 like tex and queen check and he can so repeat repeat anytime he wants so he will say he is not having any problem yeah so queen f2 yeah is good suggestion but I am looking for something more forcing and more awesome more awesome more pressure just more awesome yes yes nice one Ashley so the clue was good yeah so yeah just as they say bring all your pieces to that tech so and yeah I am stopping all this queen e2 and all this stuff and I am threatening queen g3 so your immediate threat is queen g3 yeah queen g3 and there is no way to defend the mate actually found a very interesting way to defend against it no I mean in this position queen g3 is on the board it's over yeah alright let's try and come up with a defense so you have to think of something against the idea of queen g3 king h8 so let's have that on the mode so we have a suggestion of knight e7 king h8 on norubons let's anyway have it on the board yeah yeah yeah okay anyway this is what happened in the game this is correct yes this is good but the big question is now what the theme of over loading the queen yeah so knight e7 I can't take so king h8 so now just have that on the board you have to just have that on the board so knight e7 is important because queen e7 your rook is yeah yeah you cannot take yeah rook is attacked yeah but anyway I don't think I was ever planning to take back so you really didn't care about the pieces in this game I was just going for the majesty king so still a very big threat of queen g3 on the board yeah again I have to emphasize yeah so his main problem is all the pieces are sleeping so they're not really playing yeah I think that's the main reason why that attack is quite strong queen e1 yes so you yourself have to find the refutation for queen e1 yeah nice one so queen e1 let's have that on the board yeah so queen e1 unfortunately doesn't work yeah this was my point actually yeah so king g1 and you lose the queen yeah actually materially it is not doing so bad but the problem is again the king like okay if you try to play knight a3 and I bring the last piece and okay after rook it will be checkmate so on right yeah so queen e1 here doesn't work when now yeah I was bishop c2 so the coach has the students stumped yeah I should yeah maybe yeah no probably yeah bishop c2 I didn't think actually yeah maybe it was possible yeah bishop c2 I guess I should continue bringing all the pieces rook f8 yeah and rook into g2 is a threat yes rook into g2 yeah very sharp today very sharp today thanks baby thank you all this training with laurance helped I think doing commentary yeah looks really bad yeah so just no difference I think for rook g2 alright so any other knight f5 knight f5 that's an interesting idea this is once again stunned yeah but I think I'll play rook f5 yeah and okay guys what is the threat so you're asking if it's black to play here what are you threatening alright so imagine black to play yeah this yeah I think it's quite interesting but I'm not sure if it works yeah I think it's not it's got I really can't no no I was hoping it would end in mech but it's not because king has shut that so I mean you're a best bring but you do realize the online audience can hear you so rook f1 is a suggestion is that a threat here yes that was the one and yeah I was hoping it would be an example just for let's see a3 you don't make such moves on the board ever but just to demonstrate yeah so rook f1 takes and knight g3 and yeah king either way it's checkmate so this is the one so yeah rook f8 and yeah if he takes knight h4 and the x-ray rook g2 rook f1 and actually even with all these pieces on the board there's just no way to play against rook g2 rook f1 yeah there's no difference I think yeah so this I think probably only one more left to defend actually so we have to defend the g2 pawn yes okay maybe I can show so tell us what you did what you did here yeah so it was knight d5 and so it's just ready to play knight e3 so yeah with the queen g3 or rook f8 both can just go knight e3 and I think the e3 square is very important because it defends f1 as well as g2 yeah sure so I just continued rook f8 so he just continued being a million pieces down yeah yeah so it's pretty much force to do this okay now I think okay the main reason why I showed wanted to show this game was this moment which I found very interesting and this moment were you at least out of your book now yeah yeah sure no I think when he played h3 yeah it was not in my preparation so all this rook f2 I had to find over the board yeah so it's three pieces for the rook currently yeah but this is a very interesting motive that we often see which is to sacrifice material when all your opponent's pieces are on one side and then go for the kill on the other side over here he's you're just attacking white's king even though you're materially down it doesn't matter because all his pieces are on the other side of the board yeah yeah there are some of my trainers yeah he told me to split the board and then I can count how many pieces I have for attack and okay so like you can just see like I have queen two rooks and knight and it's basically knight and king and queen yeah so it's heavily hand-off forward yeah that's an interesting thought process so you split the board into two let's say along the e file yeah and even though on the queen side you've got nothing it really doesn't matter because the game will end in the king side hopefully any suggestions again stunned knight g2 what is happening king g2 and king h2 rook f3 yeah you wanted I think I have queen e1 somehow I'm escaping so can we just have that on the board rook f3 and queen e1 defense yeah actually the problem is you don't have to rook f3 I don't think it's like a big threat so I just stop it right yeah it's not working okay let's go back to the position knight e3 oh yes that's the one yes so yeah it's like removing the main defender so like once this knight e3 goes okay queen g3 will be very strong and actually I have like another thread actually okay so he can't take on f3 with the pawn because can we just have that on the board so you can't take because it's mate king h1 and you can decide rook h2 or queen h2 and let's go back to rook f3 and now yeah the point is the same idea I'm threatening rook h3 so he cannot yeah he cannot take because of the same queen g3 and queen h2 and again just to demonstrate a move like a3 rook h3 and rook h1 is not unstoppable otherwise you run into a queen g3 mate if you take on h3 so now black has to white has to find a way against the idea of rook h3 yes so finally one of the pieces is coming to play from the queen side this is a very interesting geometry of defense that this piece on the absolute other flank comes to defend h3 yeah so now I see that okay the idea of rook h3 is gone forever so I need to draw some arrows arrows no but you missed a square yes so what were you saying Adi Ban you missed bishop d7 during the game no no no I don't remember okay I was just going with the flow so I don't know what I saw and what I missed I was just so happy with my question so I was just you were so happy with your position because you were really enjoying playing yeah yeah yeah I was like attacking against such a great player so I was very happy sorry that's a good question that's actually a very good question this is the thing yeah there's no other difference and now finally having all these stupid pieces will actually make sense materially like now it's not so bad maybe black is still probably okay but it's not what he wants it's a good spot with yeah queen f1 yeah it was the only way actually to defend this so rook h3 doesn't work yeah rook h3 doesn't work so basically like I have to continue the same plan but just not giving any more pieces yes actually knight g4 interesting lot of pieces can capture it bishop g4 what you wanted yeah but it was nice I think he wanted to overload the pieces but even perhaps wait actually I'm curious what actually knight g4 rook g2 yeah it's completely okay but probably everything is holding no but yeah bishop g4 is coming but I think his point was take rook h3 right yeah this is nice takes and queen g3 again the same point right yeah this team actually is very nice it happens many time like how do you call it exactly I don't know the word blocking maybe I don't know blocking is yeah queen g3 yes so and now thread is rook e3 and basically I should not give him too much to develop his pieces yeah because if I just wait one more move he has knight a3 and knight c2 interesting I'll also put this arrow from the other the right side click this one on this okay great so if you wait one more move he goes knight c3 and then the e3 knight is protected so then it becomes very difficult to continue the attack I'm not at all sure if it's yeah but still probably have some chances but it's not clear so yeah queen g3 and now I'm going to take on e3 and it looks almost hopeless but he managed to still find a defense actually in such positions tempos and every move really really does count you have to keep the momentum of the attack going yeah there is I mean giving up all the pieces will be for a waste haha so any defense what's your defense with white queen f1 yeah but then you lose a lot of material after rook f1 knight f1 queen f2 perhaps or rook actually let's see yeah it's enough I think because this f1 will actually it's nice you know first give a check yeah so that you cannot run with the king you take everything with check and then no just take checkmate yeah haha haha no haha right so queen f1 unfortunately does not work what else yeah it's almost very similar to what he played queen f1 but yeah so rook e3 is the big threat so how would you defend it actually here now I remember I actually thought the game was over but he managed to find a defense actually find a resource oh yes Peter and the producer haha of the show queen e1 well done Peter the only move to defend yeah rook e3 and queen f2 queen f2 rook e1 yes this is what and I thought it was over queen f1 this is beautiful yeah so this is what I missed I thought rook e1 he has to take and okay I thought I'm just and you win the c1 bishop but unfortunately as queen f1 and the difference is that after you don't you're not able to win another piece yeah yeah yeah it's like I can go queen d3 check and queen c2 but knight a3 and is just in time yeah so queen d3 king f1 and knight a3 just in time yeah so protecting everything very interesting yeah this also looks quite nasty but somehow there's no clear way to proceed and okay all the pieces are gone so I just have like a night lift so which will take another move to come into the game as well alright so let's go back so queen e1 was correct but rook e3 doesn't work yeah so now okay I'll give a clue so okay I think all my pieces are playing quite well except one piece so I hope you don't mean the king it's too early for that yeah this is what I did actually because the problem is he's kind of stuck on the king side I have to say you've got some very impressive players in the audience well done guys yeah knight a3 was really cool actually so the point is the threat is knight e5 and then yeah you can probably take yeah this is probably nice to show okay let's say something like this so I come knight e5 knight c2 okay one option is I think knight d3 is winning but I yeah knight d3 is probably the simplest and just brutal rook e3 doesn't work because of king f2 or what queen f2 but knight f1 yeah it's just barely surviving yeah queen edge yeah too much force to make a drop probably with this yeah yeah so I think yeah I wanted knight d3 I guess here knight d3 and yeah that looks really strong because the queen doesn't have the point is that queen can't go to d1 because now you just take on actually I think probably just knight f4 you can't take on g2 in that position I think also I can but knight g2 queen f2 king edge to knight f1 but rook edge queen g1 or knight e3 maybe queen g1 yeah no because bishop on d7 is very annoying it's defending the edge 3 pawn no but queen d1 I'm pretty sure you can find the nice mate or maybe not what about rook f1 here knight f1 oh sorry yeah no that's no okay I think just knight f4 and rook g2 is really unstoppable right because if knight e1 you just take rook e3 yeah just even rook f1 no no you have to take rook e3 yeah rook e3 and finally it crashes yeah right yeah so knight e3 yeah so you cannot do so okay you wanted to prevent this knight e5 at any cost so he played d4 yeah but now this major flaw with this plan and now one of the lines which was not working before actually works alright so while the audience has a think seeing this game I now understand why wishy anand said that you're such a risky team player and having you on the team is just you know things can get really crazy and chaotic so it's your style of play this is very normal for you yeah I just I think I was like a very bad team player at first I think because of me many times like my team did not win a medal but now yeah the things have changed and now because of me my team is winning so what do you think has been the shift is basically I stopped losing in team events I think that is the main reason actually and okay because in team events it's not just you like if you actually one of the reasons why we got bronze medal in 2014 was we were never losing any of the matches and at some point some guy would somehow win and so as long as you're not losing the match okay there's always a chance that you can win the like one of your teammates will win and you can eventually win the match talking about not losing team matches it wasn't the case on the night of the battle of the sexes huh that was very sad yes yeah I still have nightmares about that DC 3 more which I played so that's when the women team won against the men team but I think it's like a tradition right they always beat us if I remember no actually earlier it was the men team that won and I think the year before that as well Brian said women have won twice in history and once was last night that's what he said I have been here 3 times and I think 2 times I was here probably they were maybe those were the 2 times that the women team won stick to the women yeah yeah but the thing is having a player like you on the team means that when there's a must win situation for the team they would want to field a player like you because of your style of play yeah yeah sure actually that's one of my specialties I would say to play in must win situations no actually this Olympia actually I was playing too solid and then when I drew one of her teammates lost and which eventually put us out of the contention okay I'm not gonna play solid anymore I'm just going back to my old how I used to play so I think that was do we have a suggestion 9G5 9G5 what is the thread yeah okay yeah I guess Bishop G4 anyway I think it's quite close so I can just show them actually I mean the idea is correct as you mentioned yeah so now after D4 I just went rook and E3 now this line works so you just continue the trend of giving more and more pieces yeah so I just gave queen F2 and rook E1 check and queen F1 and now this this is the difference yeah so this was not possible previously and now a new pawn joins the this is very interesting so when this pawn was on D2 the E3 move was not working but after D4 and suddenly you have the threat of queen F2 now queen F2 yeah so yeah so after E3 it's basically over there's no difference oh so he yeah he played knight D2 and because now if he takes on E1 you just take and you I mean besides the E pawn being very strong you win everything on the queen side as well yeah I mean exactly like the knight cannot move and I will queen the E pawn also yeah so now I just went queen F2 and yeah it was over so I can go here but I just take on E2 there's too many queens yeah so I have to yeah queen F2 design and this was probably yeah one of my favorite games from when I was even younger that's a very very imaginative play from you actually in this game it was channeling your inner thal right we're going to open the audience for questions very soon but tell us a bit about your experience here so far in Gibraltar yeah Gibraltar I always tell Stuart like okay I'm very happy to be here and it's one of my favorite tournaments and also it's one of those opens which just kept on getting stronger actually I remember in 2014 it was I think not maybe so strong like nowadays but then slowly I think it got even bigger and always like it's one of the special places where women may be given more preference than men yes it is an event which strongly supports women chess you know seeing this game Adivan like one gets feeling that you're a player who with a very strong sense of imagination and a very romantic style of playing as well and where does that come from is it something did you study a lot of a lot from books when you were growing up or no I think our style is more or less based on the first book which we read and like I said mine was Attack with my Mikael Tol so I think that's why I always want to go for the attack and my friend with it who has like a very solid style his first book was Cabo Blanca Base Game so you can see that the difference yeah and also the funny thing is I my trainer yeah he was like I'm very like grateful for my first trainer I see Subramaniam he made sure that I would study all the classics and so he actually presented me with the same book but I just could not go through it it was so boring and only after I became a grandmaster I'm like okay you have to master this also so you have to study and then I realized he was really a great world champion might be one of the strongest actually because he now used to make much mistakes actually Cabo Blanca yeah that's very interesting that to say that one of the first books that he leaves a big impression on you and if you are to give a big recommendation something I mean besides this book a book that you highly recommend for our audience that you feel left a big impact on you besides yeah like I said this I think this is my memorable 60 games Bobby Fischer that's very good I think every classical book is like very good and for end games I would actually recommend this book of Drotsky Endgame Manual and also now this recent classic is 100 end games you must know that is also very good Josh that's also I think very nice basically like books I think still has the importance which I feel nowadays many youngsters they are they think that they can just see work with computer and they can just ignore the classics which is not at all the right approach right well we are going to open the floor to the audience any questions from you guys or our online audience I'll start but I want you to be a better audience than the first in master classes alright they are very brave he's here to answer questions we are paying by the audience they are still thinking about the position I gave them too many questions they are very brave with their move suggestions yeah exactly too many questions yeah so I'll go first and I'll get a question so Adibon this guy named Vishy Anand he's pretty good at chess but tell us something you can absolutely crush Vishy at any sport game or activity what's something that he has no chance against you at no I think any sport other than chess I can crush him ok it could be an eating competition any sport other than chess ok that's your answer you have an interesting story about Vishy as well I remember he is going to kill me for this probably I'll receive a message right now ok my place once you come back to channel let's meet you would probably say there was this interesting story that you had about how he was someone you really looked up to and then from there playing in the same team with him and playing against him can you tell us about that yeah I think ok chess in India is so popular because of him and like everyone when we are younger we wanted to become like him he was our hero and personally I'm very grateful for him because like in spite of winning all this world championship he used to take the time to actually interact with us and like when he used to win like a national title my first open national title he would send me a message and when he became an international master he invited me for a dinner and so I remember my first time I was just sitting next to him like I just could not speak for the first 10 minutes I was just so stunned ok I'm usually very talkative no you don't say but the first 10 minutes I was just staring at him I was not talking I was just in awe and yeah I just I think he just takes a personal interest and I'm very grateful for them and I think he is one of the major reasons me, myself and all these youngsters from India are coming up here I think he is the big reason B.O.1988 on the air today he lost in six moves against Alonso Diaz so he is going to kill us first I know the reason why I know the story this is a question from the audience this is not my actual question but I believe that Vishy is very good at tennis so maybe he beats you there oh tennis yes actually tennis he can beat me I think he is his friend with B.J. Amitras oh yeah my question was that obviously you are very gifted tactics and you were mentioning game books but did you train with in-game studies, made in 2 or just normal tactic books that's a really interesting question yeah I think no you need to solve all sorts of things I think it's very good to start with made in 1, made in 2 some of my friends still have a problem with that why you gave me not you I just wanted to mention Vidit got a checkmate twice in a row so in made in 1 he missed so it's still a problem with many of my friends so like yeah I think start with made in 1 made in 2 and just then 3 is also I think quite challenging and studies are a bit I think little bit advanced so that maybe you might want to postpone until you are really ready for them because it's really like mind blowing and I remember I have solved all sorts of tactics around 4000 tactics or something I would have solved there was this softwares CTR because at the time there was like no online platform like chess.com or chess24 where you can actually become a member and you can always solve in this website but at the time there was no opportunity like that so I was there was this softwares so I used to solve a lot I think that would actually make you tactically very alert yeah because also I remember Topolow mentioned that calculation is everything it's one of his favorite quotes yeah so I think yeah it's very important to bring like make your combinational vision very powerful now Divan I know before we go to the next question I know that you really enjoy quotes and you have you have a thing for quotes tell us which would be the one quote that you live by or something that has left a big impression on you your favorite quote wait I just got a quote today I am trying to remember yeah I believe I have all I need so this is what I got today so I just thought that I believe I have all I need yeah so just like the perfect package so this is what I got today so it's like I am always having some quotes that's what I asked right so we have another question I think it's quite important when improving to go through the games that you have played and try and understand them what's your procedure for doing that yeah I think okay you have to probably okay the thing is first I think it's very important to analyze the games you have lost and also the games you have won because in the games you also have won basically try to analyze without computer I think that's very important like you have to analyze on your own then you can compare your notes with computer it's like on growing process you cannot do it one day and forget about it so you have to just do it continuously and eventually you will become very strong and I read this book by Axel Smith what was the name again pump up your rating yeah yeah yeah yeah it's a very popular book and all my friends said it's very good and he recommends that he that was one of his training like Aryanthari he improved just by analyzing his games again and again so I think yeah that's like a well known proven method yeah do we have any other questions Adibhan at the Olympiad in Batumi I felt very good because there's a couple Indian restaurants and the one I walked into the entire Indian national team was there so I knew I had done well have you ever played a tournament where there's just no Indian food anywhere to be found in that city yeah no I am not like your typical Indian so like when I go outside India I'm really not looking for Indian food actually because I want to explore their own cuisine like I want to try different foods in fact I try to avoid Indian food when I go outside so there have been many times probably it existed but I would not know because I would be like I'm a big fan of like pizza and all this so you're going to go two weeks here with no Indian food yeah sure I can live my Indian life without Indian food it's not a big problem then I can go I know you have a thing for Georgian cuisine yes that's my favorite and also Japanese I like talking about Georgian food I know that you also had an experience of working of training the Georgian women team for a for an event yes left yeah okay it was because of my trainer Obilawa he suggested that okay maybe it would be interesting to train with the Georgian women team and okay I thought it would be fun and quiet and they actually had a good performance and I just asked them which is their best performance so far and they said a long time back they had one silver and before that maybe bronze so I thought okay silver if and they I think got silver in this European teams so yeah it was overall nice experience and I had fun right and someone said I was that I was a very lucky trainer to work with all this beautiful ladies any more questions from the audience Peter anything from online probably not also tell me Adwan what you we have so much young talent coming from India we've got we've got Nehal now Gukesh what is your opinion on that play and tell us a bit about your thoughts on that yeah I think okay we have this culture there's always tournaments going on like every weekend there's some tournament going on in Chennai especially so Chennai is where you're from that's why like there's no talent and somehow yeah I think we are just well worth for chess from the beginning and right now like I think Gukesh is showing a lot of promise also I don't know if I have to pick I don't know it's kind of hard but I think all these youngsters really have like huge promise but it's very important that the next phase is going to be very difficult for them and they need to prove themselves and I'm like in a way I can help somehow it would be nice like wish he was helping me right no they're extremely talented but I also feel that I mean talent is not rare but I think they also have this ability to work really hard and this passion for chess because I always see them they're playing a lot and yeah Nehal for instance like after finishing Tiring tournament like the Isle of Man he was playing online till 5 o'clock in the morning some blitz so yeah these kids I think they are like they are fully into chess and even their hobby consists of chess so I think it's all basically they are very hard workers I think at this such a young age and I think they have like a good support system and it's very important that your family is supporting you and like when I was growing up like there was literally no pressure from my parents which is very important because nowadays many kings and many kids and our each their potential because they have too much pressure from their parents and I mean if you are afraid when you are young then like okay then I don't think there's much hope for you yeah when you get older all those things like become even worse so when you are young you have to be like ferocious and like you have to go for the kill always and all these kids are just like that so yeah they don't fear anyone over the board no matter who they are playing at all yeah I remember in Reykjavik when I was playing everyone's concern was not to play against Nihal and Prag they were happy to play with me or Rapport they were not scared of us but they didn't want to play with those kids this is the year that you won Reykjavik yeah yeah yeah and I have to thank you of course for bullying me to going there because I did not know what tournament to play and actually marked my year very well actually so you're welcome okay I have to ask you because this is something that I also as a player struggle with and I'm sure it probably resonates with a lot of us here you know when we've had a bad day or a bad game or a bad tournament it's really difficult to sort of get ourselves back up there the next time or the next tournament practical advice I mean it's easy to say to keep a positive attitude and to keep smiling but what would you advise us to do to be able to give our best for the remaining rounds or the next tournament no okay like personally for me like I have this one question I ask myself after I lose or when the things are not going so well I ask myself is this going to stop me and the answer is always no so okay if this not going to stop you then there's no reason that you should be affected by it and yeah so and the main thing is okay just you have to just keep removing everything like for example okay how would the people think like prestige like okay you lost the game okay like I mean it's like how the outside world thinks of you this is what people find it more difficult to cope with like oh everyone is thinking that I have lost they think I'm a bad player all this you don't need such things like you just have to play for yourself I think that's very important and yeah I think I think I also had this face where after a loss I would also lose the next game so it became two in a row which is not one but yeah slowly I think the major thing I just stopped caring about how the outside world would think and I stopped caring about the rating and yeah just remove all this unnecessary elements and then I think you'll be fine yeah just just to be have hope for the future yeah that's very interesting because I think Magnus Carlson also said something similar to that where he said that he doesn't really care about what people think about him or what their opinion is and it's not important yeah yeah yeah okay but he maybe takes it a little bit extreme but he says that okay I will never listen to anyone okay so that's maybe little bit extreme but yeah the concept is kind of similar yes that's interesting alright anybody else with anything okay well thank you so much for your time Madhuban that was a very very entertaining game and a great conversation learnt a lot and wish you all the best for the remaining games thank you thank you for joining us


Once everyone takes down here, welcome back to another video. Today I'm going to be showing you guys how to record your laptop screen using Filmora 9. Let's get right into this. So I use Filmora 9 for editing my videos and also screen recording anything that I need from my laptop to put into my videos. It is definitely very helpful before using Filmora 9. I was using these free sites that were recording my screen, but after a while the quality was really terrible and since I already had Filmora 9, I realized that they can record your screen for you within the program, which is very, very unique and very helpful. So one thing that I forgot to mention is that Filmora 9 is a program that you have to purchase or subscribe to and download onto your laptop. You do get updates and everything like that. And it is, in my opinion, the best video editing software and screen recorder I have ever used. So once you open up Filmora 9 to get to the screen recorder, it's quite simple. You are going to, let me just zoom in here. You're going to go to the top left corner. You're going to go under file. You're going to go down to record media. And you're going to go over to record PC screen. Once you click that, it might take a couple seconds to bring it up. This here is just my upload schedule. No spoilers unless you've already seen it. And you're basically just going to wait for it to launch. Sometimes it does take a minute, especially if you have other programs open. Since the only thing I had open is my Filmora 9 Plus. I already had my YouTube schedule open. That's all that I had. I didn't have any internet open or anything like that, but you can record on the internet. So what you're going to do is once it opens up, this is the screen you are going to see. Of course, this button here is going to be what's going to start the recording. If you want to have your audio in the recording or audio of you talking, you are going to adjust it through the microphone setting here. If you are playing a video and you're recording it and capturing it to react to and put that in your YouTube video. First of all, you want to take into account copyrights issues.   And I'll show you guys that in a second. So the first thing is whenever I record a screen, usually I'm on the Internet and I'm either on YouTube capturing some footage or I'm doing a quiz capturing that different things like that. So you can click in the corners and drag it to whatever size on the screen you need. You don't need to do just the full screen. As you can see, there is a circle that shows you the corner. So if it's hard to tell where you are placing it, it does zoom it in for you so you can do it that way. Makes it a lot easier to be honest with you. Now, I'm going to start recording here just to show you guys what it does. It's going to do a countdown, which is very helpful. And it is recording right now. You guys can see, can kind of see. There is a glare story for recording the screen with my camera, but you do see it right here. If I do click that, it is allowing you to open up the recorder. But right now, anything that you do on the screen, it is going to show it. So if I click here, as you guys can tell nothing is happening, but in the recording that you are going to have captured, it is going to show me clicking around the screen with blue circles and it is going to have the audio of the clicking in it as well, which is very helpful. So I know I'm not capturing anything major. Once you open up the recording here, there is a glare. So you guys can't really see it. I do apologize. Let me see if I can click and drag. I can. So right here when it's recording, it's going to show you how long you've been recording for. It'll let you pause it and it'll let you stop it. If you stop it, it's going to automatically place it into Filmora 9. So you can edit it into your videos or you can edit that clip and just upload it just like that. Very, very helpful. It doesn't just save it onto your laptop and then you have to go open up Filmora 9 and place it into there. Once you're done recording and you hit stop, it automatically places it in Filmora 9 for you and then it's just a matter of clicking, dragging it and then you will edit it just like you do any of your other videos using Filmora 9. Now again, all you need to be able to use Filmora 9 is either a subscription. You can pay I think monthly or yearly or you can do a lifetime agreement with them and purchase it that way. You get the video editing software, which is amazing. I absolutely love the quality of the editing that I can do with Filmora 9, but you also get the screen recording, which is the best. There's no watermarks for the screen recording using Filmora 9 unlike some other sites that do have a watermark after you did screen record using them. So it's very helpful, very easy to do using Filmora 9. You just have to have a subscription or paid to use Filmora 9. Hope you guys enjoyed this video. I'm just going to leave this here. Please take care. Peace.


Welcome to Persimmon Hill Farm. My name is Ernie Boner. My wife and I started a Persimmon Hill Farm in 1982. The time we planted two acres of blueberries and we started going from there and planting blackberries, elderberries, and we raised shiitake mushrooms here on the farm. We are primarily a upick berry farm and we do a lot of processing on the farm as well as far as making jams and barbecue sauces and syrups and muffins and all kinds of different things there. I think what we sell primarily is the experience that people can have when they come on to the farm. They can have a family experience but they also, I think that there's a need that people feel to be in an agricultural setting, to pick their own food. It's educational. I guess they call it soft adventure in a sense. People just seem to really enjoy that. I don't think it's a, and the berries cost them a little bit less, but I don't think that's the issue at all. I think the issue is having the experience, being able to be here, being able to be here with your friends and your family and doing an event that's meaningful. One of the issues that we addressed in our SARA grant, in Missouri it seems like when a planting gets to a certain age it starts kind of digressing a little bit and going downhill. We wanted to look at a way, nobody had too much success in replanting and we wanted to take a look at the various soil amendments that we could use or techniques that we could use to bring a planting back or not bring it back, but to replant and have a successful planting and that's what we're doing. We're in our third leafing in the field with our replacement field here and it's being real successful. It's going about like you'd expect for a three-year-old planting, which is a huge success for us because we will have a nice field. We chose Duke as the variety of blueberries that we're utilizing here. We selected several different soil amendments. We worm casting tea. We also inserted worms in some of the rows, or actually in the planting. We also take a look at pine bark. Since we raised shiitake mushrooms we ground up the shiitake logs and we composted those and utilized those as a soil amendment. Then we used coffee grounds, all five of those. We did the bulk of this planting. We used all of those amendments, but in row 81, right over here, we subdivided each one of those plantings into 14 test plantings and we utilized one of those amendments in each one of those segments of row. It was very interesting. At this point, we don't have conclusive evidence, but it seems that we're very pleased that we used the combination of all. Those seem to be doing the very best, so we're very pleased with that. Also, we found that the inclusion of the earthworms and the coffee grounds was very valuable. When we plant blueberries, I think we will be using, at this point, it may change as we go through the rest of this project. We're going to take data for several more years, but I think we're going to always use coffee grounds. We will always include the worms in each planting hole. I think that's real important to have a good environment for them or a good stock of worms in there working for you. I think we'll probably continue with pine bark. A person can use this fragment peat moss, but I don't think there's a magic thing about fragment peat moss. I think the organic matter can be of other sources. I really like the idea of the worms that we use. I think they are real valuable and they seem to be really doing a good job.


So nine years, and you might not want to get into it, or you ain't got nothing to hide. What did you end up going to prison for nine years for? Aggravated robbery. I committed aggravated robbery with one of my homies and then we did the robbery, people got shot and then we went to prison. We on boss talk one on one, one on one. Yeah, we gon' talk. To the penitentiary in 2009, bro. I got out of 2018, I did nine years, bro.  Come on, bro. Nine years. That's why we need to go back more in the back story to find out a little bit more. For sure, man, because I'm telling you right now. I've been nine four years, bro. Wow, have you been grinding? And been grinding since I've been out.  I never did that. I never wrapped in prison or none of that, but I always grew up free-styling, like, so we'll crank up a free-style anyway. That's what we do in Houston. But for us really rapping and like putting niggas together, nobody have ever heard. Nine years. I got to talk about that, bro. It kind of hit them boys from a different angle. So nine years. What, and you might not want to get into it, are you? Man, I ain't got nothing to hide. What did you end up going to prison for nine years for? Aggravated robbery. I committed aggravated robbery with one of my homies and then some, we did the robbery, people got shot and then we went to prison. Wow, so, and that was your first offense? First offense, they hear me. I'm 18, 17, bro.   I real life grew up in prison because let me, like, okay. So nine years, man, let's get, man.  Let's just tackle and talk about it a little bit more because like I said, man, to go through, you know that. And then still be here. That's heavy, bro. That's heavy, bro. Still be told. So let's talk to me a little bit about being your first offense, going down there. We better get into detail, man. But how old were you? You said 17? Yeah. And you never got in trouble before that. Nah, I mean, nothing major, nothing minor, little juvenile, but nothing that, nah, this is my first major offense to getting in trouble. TDC? TDC. Gurney, Milderton, Go-Ree, Conley unit, Conley unit, Torres unit, Torres, Gil-Bluis unit. Woo. What was it like the first day going into that system like that, bro? We for the talk. I don't know what other- Before you went in though, what was your frame of mind and what did you think it was going to be like compared to when you actually got there? I don't know. All I know is stories. No, you don't know. All I know is stories of what the penitentiary is. People got up, man. Okay, coming from the neighborhoods in the streets that we come from, everybody done been to the penitentiary. So all you hear is penitentiary stories about how it is and what's going on down there and whatever. You hearin' about it. But for me, I didn't know what I was gonna walk into. I just had to go over my head up in my chair side. Was there a sense of, because you don't know what you're walking into going into the situation. You hear the stories. You get there the first day. You, the first day, what's your first, you went straight to company? Nah, I came through, right here in Bowman. I came through Larry Giz. Larry Giz. Larry Giz. Okay, so when you went, watch that one. When you went through there, the first day you get there, they get you off the bus. What do they say to you? They get you off the bus. They yell, you ate Larry Giz. We finna take you back here through diagnostics. They gon' put you in this little room right here. We got 20 more people that came with you. Y'all all gettin' unchained together. They finna strip everybody.   You really gotta make your own space, you know what I'm sayin'?  You gon' take your picture, take ID. They gon' see y'all until they figure out what they gon' put in the computer to send you wherever you goin' on that bus. Shave your head, ball? Ball. Shave all the healthy head, ball. And then, that's just to degrade you. Yeah, that's to degrade you.  They degrade you.  And I just wanted, I got a raggedy clothes. Yeah, something that you own, boxes that you own. Man, you can't even fit. Dirty boxes that they didn't, man.  Okay, so when I get there in my mind, I'm young, bro.  I'm 17 and two years old, bro. I'm ready for it. I came from a section of the Houston, and come on. So I'm already for it, but I ain't lookin' for it, but I'm for it. If it go down, what's up? I'm with it. So I'm walkin' into all of this. Then I'm gang bangin', I'm runnin' into the sits. So I gotta stand up on somethin', you know what I'm sayin'? But you saw your set down there, right? I seen my people. Okay. I ain't hide from my people. If you hide, you gon' get it. Right. Cause you shoulda came in sayin' you was from Jamaica. Exactly. So you see us party and now you wanna be Jamaican. Nah, it don't go like that. You come in, okay, yo, you a part of this then. Right.   Yeah, we on boss talk one on one. One on one.


Okay, welcome back everybody. In this video we are going to start by talking about isomers which we talked about last week. Last week I gave a definition for what isomers are. These are isomers are molecules that have the same simple formula, but the atoms are attached in different ways. And one of the examples that I gave was butane. And this other molecule here, this is butane. The formula for this molecule is C4H10. This molecule here is called 2-methylpropane, and it is also C4H10. But if you notice the atoms are attached in different ways. So these two molecules here, this one and this one, they are isomers of each other. There is another way to define isomers and it might be a little bit better. And that is isomers are molecules that have the same formula, but they have different IUPAC names. If I showed you two molecules and I said are they isomers of each other, or are they identical? If they are identical, they will have the same formula, and they will have the same IUPAC name. If they are isomers, they will have the same formula, but they will have different IUPAC names. Maybe that's the easier thing to do, and I'll show you some examples in the next couple of slides. So here's a flow chart. If I show you two molecules and I ask whether they are isomers or identical, you basically have to ask a series of questions. You say, do they have the same formula? If they don't have the same formula, then they're completely different molecules. They're not even isomers of each other. If they do have the same formula, then you have to ask, do they have the same name? If they have the same name, then they are identical. If they don't have the same name, but they do have the same formula, then they're isomers of each other. So you can write this flow chart down and use it on a quiz or a test, whatever works for you there, or you can memorize it. So as an example, I show you these two molecules, and I say are they isomers, are they identical, or are they completely different? The first thing you do is say, do they have the same formula? Well, this one is one, two, three, four, five, C5 something. This one is C4 something. They don't even have the same formula. So the answer to the first question is no. These things are completely different molecules. We can skip that part because we already know that they can't be isomers and they can't be identical if they have different formulas. Now, here's two other molecules there. Do they have the same formula? Well, this one is C5, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, twelve hydrogens. This one is C5, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, each ten. They don't have the same formula. They are completely different. I'll show you one more example. We can skip the rest of this because we know they're completely different. Here's two molecules. Are they isomers, identical, or totally different? Well, do they have the same formula? One, two, three, four, five, six, six carbons, seven, eight, eight carbons. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, eight carbons. I will skip the calculation part, but they both have 18 hydrogens. So, they have the same formula. So, we can rule that out. The answer to the first question is yes. The second question is, do they have the same name? So, we have to name these things, right? We have to count the longest chain of carbons. That's one, two, three, four, five, six. That's six. So, the end part of that molecule's name ends in hexane. We have to number in this direction. And this is a methyl side chain. This is a methyl side street. So, it is dimethyl because there are two of them, hexane. And the methyls are located at carbon number two and carbon number three. So, that top molecule's name is two, three dimethyl hexane. We have to play the same game here. Find the longest chain of carbons. That's there. That's six. So, the end name will also be hexane. We have to number the carbons. We have to number them this way. And this is a methyl. That is also a methyl. So, it is dimethyl. And the methyls are located at carbon number two and carbon number three. So, that molecule's name is also two, three dimethyl hexane. So, both of those molecules, one on the top here, one on the bottom, they're both called two, three dimethyl hexane. Because of that, we can say, do they have the same formula? Yes, they do. Do they have the same name? Yes, they have the same name. So, these two molecules are identical to each other. If we came up with a different name between these two, then they would have been isomers of each other. But in this case, we got the same name, so they are identical. And that's the end of this video. I will see you in the next one.


Hello, my people. Welcome to the Score Channel and welcome to Purdue University. This massive public university is an incredible attraction for people from all over the United States and abroad, not just for students in the state of Indiana. As always, I sat down with someone in the admissions office. Today, we're talking to Danik, who's going to tell us a little bit more about Purdue, the programs, and how you can become a Boilermaker. Hi, everybody. My name is Danik Tori. I'm an admissions representative at Purdue University. Purdue offers over 200 majors, so I always tell students no matter what you want to study or what your interests are, likely you're going to find something here at Purdue that is interesting to you. Programs and STEM, so science, technology, engineering, mathematics, we are taught several rankings in a wide variety of areas of study. So think of things like engineering, computer science, business management, hospitality and tourism management, almost anything you want to study, you'll likely find here at Purdue. One of the most famous people in the world and one of the first to even leave its borders is Neil Armstrong, who was a Purdue alumni. As a result, there are a ton of space related things here. And one of the things that I think is really cool about Purdue is just how much aerospace engineering is going on here. They even have a campus airport. I saw a lot of little planes flying around over my head while I was walking around the campus. It's pretty neat that you could actually learn to fly and maybe become an astronaut at a university like this. So we get a lot of interest in engineering, however it's a more competitive program to get admission to because we receive thousands of applications for a limited number of spots. Our business management programs are also very popular whether it's finance, marketing, supply chain management, business analytics. There's also very niche programs that you can study here at Purdue too, so UX design, agriculture, things that not a lot of students may be interested in, but if you are Purdue is a really good fit for you for a lot of those programs.  You're going to make a ton of great friends. And with over 200 majors, if you can think of it, you can study it. I've been walking around here for the last few hours.  So we're going to have to get started. You're into athletics, you're going to love Purdue because there are just a ton of football fields, tracks, indoor and outdoor. There's swimming pools. I mean pretty much every sport is represented here in this Division I school and the Boilermakers are seriously competitive. So if you want to get your sports on, this is a great university to choose. You can enhance your Purdue experience by applying for the Honors College at Purdue. It's very competitive, but it opens doors to exclusive courses, special residence options, and a whole lot more. So what's it take to get in? So the Honors College is for our very academic oriented students, as the way I would put it. Students who want to go above and beyond, they want to do research outside of the classroom. And they also want to be very interdisciplinary. So they have a wide variety of interests and are interested in academic topics even outside of their primary area of study. Our Honors College has academic benefits as well as social benefits. So we have housing opportunities specific for our Honors College program and of course academic courses specific to the Honors College students. You just need to write two additional essays at the time of your application and that deadline is typically November 1st of each year and it's a competitive application. So we typically receive I would say 7,000 applications for the Honors College and we're looking for about 700 students to join each fall. It's crowded so yeah right now you're visiting on our second day of classes so students are out and about and yeah camps as busy as ever. Danik wasn't joking this place is full of people and fortunately I got to talk to a bunch of Purdue students to ask them what they think at the university. They also gave some great advice for applicants. That's coming up next week so if you want to check it out subscribe to the channel so you don't miss it. If you want to join these people and boil her up here's what you need to do. So our admissions process here at Purdue is probably very similar to other colleges and universities in the United States. So it is a holistic review process. Essentially what that means is we would consider everything that's a part of the application so whether that's academic or non-academic. Of course your academic history is probably the most important part because we want to make sure that you're academically prepared so your grades in the courses that you've completed throughout your secondary school or high school. What are the specifics? So our average GPA of students who are accepted is typically about a 3.5 GPA so I always say a solid A to B average student. Some of our more competitive programs are going to have slightly higher GPA so thinking of computer science and engineering most students have to have about an A to A minus average or 3.7 GPA. Our average test scores for the SAT are typically about a 1250 to a 1450 depending on the programs. The other thing we're going to be looking at are all those non-academic things so when I say non-academic that's going to be letters of recommendation. Things that you've done outside of the classroom so extracurricular activities. The essay we want to make sure that it's well written and that you fully understand the program that you're applying to and if it's good fit for you. Here at score we have a lot of applicants applying to Purdue and I've edited their essays several times and Purdue does ask for quite a few extra supplemental essays but honestly it's great because it gives you the chance to really express yourself and maybe Dan can tell us a little bit more about it. That's a way for us to get to know you outside of the academics. If you have a interesting story or anything that you would like us to know outside of your academics something you've experienced or realized throughout your lifetime so it's really up to you that gives you the flexibility to let us know what you want us to know during the application review process. We're going to be looking to get to know you a little bit more better as a person and then also making sure that essay is well written and easy to to read and understand as well. And if you're an international student we're also going to be looking for a proof of English proficiency so that's typically going to be through the dual lingo English test the TOEFL or the IELTS. Though we don't offer any scholarships or financial aid international students our tuition and fees still tend to be competitive and comparable to other colleges and universities with a similar name ranking and reputation as Purdue so if you're looking at universities that are have a similar profile as Purdue you'll typically find that the tuition fees tend to be lower than other colleges and universities. As it stands Purdue is very affordable compared to other universities at the same level I mean if you were to go to a private school that does this stuff as well as Purdue does you're probably going to spend a lot more. Another thing unique here at Purdue is our tuition fees have remained the same for the past 10 years so our tuition fees are actually the same rates now as they were in year 2012. Most colleges and universities in the United States will typically raise their tuition fees 1 to 3 percent each year. Even though they don't offer financial aid for international students they still have ways to help you get scholarships with their scholarship universe portal where applicants can look for external scholarships outside scholarships from other organizations they bring them all together for you so that you can still lower the cost of your tuition. Well thank you so much for considering Purdue University if you ever have any questions feel free to reach out directly to our office and you can do so by emailing us at admissions at purdue.edu or you can call us directly with a number that is listed on our website. You'll be applying online through the common application. Our application deadline each year we have an early action deadline of November 1st of each year for the following fall and then we have a regular decision deadline each year on January 15th for our fall's intake. Our application opens each year on August 1st and then we have that November 1st deadline so we always recommend our students to apply early if possible definitely apply early and don't wait until that last minute a few days before the deadline because that's a common thing students do and it adds pressure to you adds pressure to us so definitely stand out by submitting that application a little bit early. Thank you to Danik for sitting down to talk to us and Mike for coordinating all of that really appreciate your efforts guys thanks for having me here at Purdue. I gotta get rolling but I gotta say this was an awesome experience I've really enjoyed checking out Purdue. If you guys are interested in applying to Purdue go check out their website purdue.edu if you need help with your applications you know you can hit us up at prepwithscore.com and I'll see you next week.
