Hi, i was wondering if there is any way to see if we did a brilliant move without analyzing our games.
Of course. You'll know them when people show them to you.
Truly brilliant moves are very rare and they knock your socks off.
The people who played them always had some idea of what they were trying to do. Subsequent computer analysis may find flaws but the important part was that there was some original non-obvious concept behind the move.
Like Carlsen's last game queen sac against Karjakin.
They were not played inadvertently. Taking the opposition in an endgame was not considered brilliant.
I worry that we seem to have gotten away from that definition of brilliancies.
I know that chess.com is trying to approach that definition in their computer analysis.(According to Danny Rensch in his State of Chess.com broadcasts.) But as he says, it's very very difficult to program.
Until then, you'll have to rely on your own judgement.
