    A cold bath is purported to stimulate white blood cell movement throughout the body, supposedly improving immune function and imparting some sense of refreshment or invigoration, as you mentioned, Agad. The process may feel painful but the result is beneficial, which may be Sir John Simon's point in saying so about chess being a cold bath for the mind – a mental labor but beneficial and invigorating in its aftermath.

    Sir John Simon's best-known quote may be, "He (David Lloyd-George) has sat on the fence so long that the iron has entered his soul".

    Marozy bind is just not as good when you exchange pieces with white

    If this was Anish, he would have been playing for the draw from the get got. But this is MVL, looking for draws is not in his dna. That’s fire 🔥🔥🔥

    The english expression giving someone 'a cold bath' means taking someone's ego down a level. Which is exactly what chess does, it humbles us with its insane complexity- which arises from apparent symmetry and simplicity.

    Always a fan of MVL just brings it sometimes to disaster and sometimes like this. He did not need to win but you want a Sicilian, sure.

    Refreshing and invigorating. Nordic peoples like to go from saunas to cold-water baths, and it causes beneficial proteins to be manufactured, causing the mitochondria to make more energy.

    Maybe Magnus underestimated MVL….again😂

    #BotvinnikvsTal1961rematch

    Hey, agad, long time fan from Greece here. Could you please analyse the WC rematch of 1961 between Tal and Botvinnik where Botvinnik effectively demolished Tal (I know it's not an elegant thing to say). I can't find an analysis of the series anywhere and I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you very much in advance for considering my suggestion

    It's nice to see MVL back to the top of his game.
    After the Covid Candidates, it felt he had a really long dry period where we didn't compete as much with the top players.

    Qxc4 disastrous educative analysis ❤ thanks.

    It’ll be Great if Magnus MVL battle it out in the Grand Finals Magnus defeating his opposition in the losers bracket MVL defeating Alireza Hikaru winning

    For me, chess is not so much a cold bath as it is a hot mess.

    bruh im not used to hear "and in this position magnus carlsen resigned the game"
    mvl is such a monster

    4:11: He means a tactic to win the Rook, not the Bishop. Antonio needs to slow down and take a breath.

    3:16: It's NOT a Rapid game. It's Armaggedon. So, not only did you forget to change the R for an A, you're also confusing yourself and your listeners in the process.

    I found the pause the video move without pausing and I am extremely proud of myself, I think this is maybe the third time I've ever solved one of those without pausing.

    "Chess is a cold bath for the mind"
    I don't relate to the quote either…
    I cold shock to the body isn't appealing to me.

    I do not want to research why Sir John Simon likes to think of Chess like a "cold bath"…
    Maybe Sir John Simon is trying to say Chess is a "rush" for him…in an odd way.
    A cold shock to the body sounds risky to me…

    MVL playing out of his mind 👏👏🙂 really nice game 😊

    The Beast vs the Best, never disappoints.

    MVL's Najdorf and Gruenfeld Sicilians are godly

    Shock to the body or refreshing, invigorating??? Who really likes a cold bath/shower?? Yet how would we benefit from it?? Usually when we want to cool down our body/fever which means… hot heads are soon humbled if ya ask me! Mentally, chess is humbling, imo – ask Magmaximus!

    What if Magnus defended with NE2 instead of moving his rook at the pause the video moment? (10:05)

    really dropping the ball on this one. glanced over b4 like it was a normie move and not exploring the lines beyond "resigns". smh

    This is a very misleading title. No one on this planet and the next has ever thought MVL was even close to the best or even top 4… Why is MVL being described as the best? Have you lost your mind? You meant the best at Armageddon or the best at taking a 2-0 lead and letting the opponent take the next two? Are you crowning MVLoser as the proper World Championship candidate… or even in Rapids?

    Shouldn't the little robot say "A" instead of "R"?

    Poor alireza caught a stray bullet😭

    A cold bath can be shocking initially. Only later does one feel refreshed after the shock wears off.

    Wow, well done Maxime! defeating magnus with black no matter what the format is a feat in it itself, congrats bud

    Agad you should make a play list of each tournament you are covering for example if you are covering Croatia chess tournament so make a playlist and than add each video as you uploaded it in the respective playlist so it will be easy for all the viewers to chek the play list they want and enjoy all the games of the tournament in one go.. this will increase your views and will benefit you alot..

    ''Yes, here move 9 completly new game, Fabi vs Alireza end of the game''
    Agad is savage as always 😀

    And it was in this position, upon putting my mind in to a bucket of ice water, that I gained supreme chess clarity and there was nothing more to be done.

    @agadmator you forgot to complete the game this time, I really enjoy when you do that and its been a habit to see you complete the games, please always do that bro – much love and respect. ❤
