@@atefahmed2178 I don't see your country winning in chess... And the one you're disrespecting is himself a 5 times world champion and mentor of many indian GMs. Magnus, no doubt respects him bcz of his witty and honed mind at this age. They were given a position...and it might be not as simple as looking if they had to fight each other 😅😂
This format highlights the superior chess understanding of Magnus over his contemporaries. In my view, he is the GOAT of modern chess, even better than Fischer, Kasparov and Karpov, who were phenomenally successful because of their great opening preparation. Magnus, on the other hand, can outplay anyone from any dynamically equal (even slightly inferior) position due to his superior understanding of the game.
You can't directly compare skills of different generations. Of course, modern players know more. They learned from the previous masters!! However, Magnus hasn't been nearly as dominant as Kasparov in longevity nor as dominant as Fischer in skill gap between himself and #2. Fischer steamrolled everyone that was put in front of him in ways that Magnus can only dream about. So no, Magnus is not the GOAT by any meaningful standard other than he's the most recent #1.
Magnus also has acess to superior engine Kasparov Karpov fisher you can't compare era as they never played one another at their peak at each era they were very dominating
Forget other comments....some are stupid magnus haters ( or biased about his power as he PROBABLY is better than Kasparov, Fischer and Karpov and they have these as role model and they can't accept Magnus surpassing their idols at any cost ) . What you said seems very much perfect, at least I am 💯 percent agree with you
@@SherlockRam26 U decide urself Did Hans ever win any big event with tight security/big stream delay? Norway chess,Tata steel,wc,etc?Nope Hans only 'godlike' online+open events without tight security measure He even lost to a female IM in tata steel challenger,a female IM with 400 elo lower than him
The reason is vishy plays positional chess(as it saves having to calculate so much, he calculates only when he feels it's needed but since time was less and sudden complex game was given and he played black in tough position he kinda overlooked), he expected the black to have played in such a way that queen was not trapped, Magnus is young calculates everything!
If you want to put into perspective how ridiculous Carlsen's mind is: Magnus was interviewed after the game. He not only remembered that he'd already seen the position, but he correctly guessed that it was a Steinitz game. He had quite literally figured out that first move years, potentially decades, before this game.
He’s unreal. Memory, understanding of the game, creativity, ability under pressure, longevity and consistency across different formats- he has it all. The way he plays is just so special. People have nostalgia bias towards older players like Morphy or Capablanca- who whilst they are legends themselves no doubt, chess theory has evolved so much since then and Magnus will know more. The goat of chess easily
@@erhhsdhh2099I would have beaten Magnus if this was me. Anand did not play a blunder. He just did not understand his move. Good game but Magnus got lucky.
This is actually a very interesting variation. I imagine Carlsen, with his insane memory, probably knows a lot of these positions, but still. We get to watch them enter into the minds of a different player.
i think they have to include 2 games of fischer random and 2 games of casablanca variation to world championship to determine the world champ…it’s very exciting only 4 games classical, 2 games rapid and 2 blitz
There is at least some logic to including Fischer Random, but "finishing somebody else's game" will always be entertainment, not really serious competition.
I don't get it. If Magnus loses the rook and Vishy loses the knight, they remain with: Magnus: 6 pawns, queen, knight, bishop - 21 point Vishy: 7 pawns, 2 rooks, bishop - 20 points Why resign in that position?!
it's not about material at that point. it's already dead lost. black has literally zero development and not even a good way to start it. some lines you'll also lose the rook on f8 e.g. after dxc exd cxd Be7. white also has all kinds of mating ideas e.g. Bf6 - obviously you can't take, and if you don't take, well queen is still coming and it's just hopeless.
thats bcos in 3=3 always. value of pieces is dynamic 3 pawns is not equal to say a bishop or a knight when things get critical. U can sacrifice ur queen for pawn that is spawining a new queen at the other of the board on the 7th row. so now that pawn is equal to 9 points already and with much better position may be.
How does he see the lines? How…..? this is infra red that sees at night where your enemy thinks the darkness is their cover, only to find themselves seeing the flash from the muzzle? WOW…!!
10. Rd1 Bb6 Now this is a exellent opportunity to "measure" the advances in chess over a time-span of 135 jears; 11.dxe5 Qg6 played by M.Chigorin vs W.Steiniz game 5 1889; White played this position in a straight-forward manner, winning a pawn and chasing the Queen away. Magnus C. vs V.Anand treats this position in a side-ways manner; 11.Na3!? Na5 - ignoring the position in the center, for the moment - 11. Na3 exd4!? (Rybka). 11.Bf1!? exd4 H.Nakamura vs A.Bassem ; Hikaru retreats his Bishop in a unfathomable manner.
crazy to see that loosing in chess always remains a bit painful, regardless whether you are a world champion or a total beginner like me. I feel compassionate with Vishy Anand and hope he will have an opportunity to beat Magnus soon.
i find this concept even better than chess 960, it could be very competitive, a random equal position picked by an ia with at least 6 pieces (not counting the king) that would be great to follow
It is amazing that game position which was played more than 100 years ago puzzles top players even in 2024 .It is not easy to find the way to win or find the way to hold . I like the format , they probably would not play Evans gambit if they start from initial position
Didn't understand why he resigned? Material was still similar? Yeah yeah I know I am missing out something basic. Will be great if someone can explain a little
@@acgamerx1005 Bishop? You mean pawn? And where is that piece down?! If Magnus loses the rook and Vishy loses the knight, they remain with: Magnus: 6 pawns, queen, knight, bishop - 21 point Vishy: 7 pawns, 2 rooks, bishop - 20 points

really love this kind of chess, probably because i'm a lifelong amateur 😅, to see the best players in the world be given a game they need to play out, engrossing on many levels. on the other hand, would it be possible to have better technology to be able to hear them after the match?! i mean, we can put a man on the moon...
I prefer things like this and fischer random to regular chess, the whole preparation especially with engine or even a team just defeats the fairness and spirit of the game.
Not only is Magnus a great player but he also has that psychological hold over his opponents, Vishy played this game much worse than he'd normally play it against any other player. Same with Magnus' record against Hikaru, they already lose the game in their head even before the start of the game.
If I had to explain. All he had to do after the Queen Check, Anand had to trade Black Knight for Magnus White Bishop. Then Magnus would either Trade with Queen or White Knight. If Queen, Anand could have Forked Magnus Black Knight and Rook with Queen on b2. However if Magnus Traded with White Knight instead, Anand would have to move Queen to e2 while threatening the pawn. Magnus will move his Knight on d2 with the Knight and Queen protecting the pawn. Then Anand would have to force Bishop on b7 off that square because that is the strongest piece in position. Even if Magnus threats the Queen with Rook that is on d5, Anand can move his Queen to a7 and she will be safe.
Mangus is quick with his moves. How quickly you can take a wiser decision is all about chess. Vishy lost it again. That is why Magnus is number 1 player in the world..

Clarification - in the original game, black was the first chess world champion "Steinitz", not Stannis from Game of Thrones.
