Jeez He was paired with many of the best players of the freaking planet! Is logical to think he's playing bad because of age but mayyybe he didn't prepare for the tournament , problems at home etc
@@LuisAlonsoVillalobos No the point is chess wise he was doing great... He finished on 7/11 same score as Arjun and many other strong players.... But the time pressure against the best was just too much
Thank you so much for providing the extra information & putting this loss, & his intense emotions, in context. I was definitely wondering what was going on...perhaps even significant outside stress with illness in his family, a recent death, etc.. You know, I've always been a fan of Ivanchuk, & this expression of emotion causes me to like him & admire him even more because it is totally clear just how passionate he is about this great game, how much he loves it, & how important it is for him to do well & still compete at a high level. When others his age have retired or play more for fun, he still seems to give it his all & really care. I hate it when people discount older competitors in any sport/game.
Utmost respect to the timeless chess legend, Ivanchuk. At 55, he continues to compete fearlessly against opponents decades younger, proving that passion and determination know no age. Watching him fight with such conviction and shed tears of raw emotion reminds us of the beauty of resilience. His journey is a beacon of hope for those in their 40s, 50s, and 60s who may have doubted their own potential because of their own age. You show us, Ivanchuk Sir, that it's never too late to dream, to fight, and to believe in yourself. This is not the end-this is just another chapter in your extraordinary story. Rise again, Sir. Keep fighting. Keep inspiring.
Indeed! Players like Ivanchuk, Anand, Korchnoi, and Smyslov show us that its possible to perform at a very high level despite age. In other sports I can think of Elliot Kipchoge setting marathon records in 40s and George Foreman winning the heavyweight boxing match in his 40s. Human potential truly knows no bounds!
Totally heartbreaking. But for those saying this shouldn't be posted, this game shows how much it means to the players. How important this one in particular meant to Ivanchuck. Heartbreaking but that's chess. It's more than just a game. Wishing the best for Ivanchuck.
@@theobvuyou shouldn't need permission to record and post a game that coccured in a public forum. Cameras are allowed here and companies like chessbase india have already gotten permission from the tournament organizers to record whatever games they want live. This includes any emotions or gestures expressed by the players. It's the entire point. I disagree with you that this makes ivanchuk look bad. If anything I have more respect for him seeing just how much he's passionate for the game.
Huge respect to danya as well. He didn't move just for Ivanchuk to calm down. Both are gems ! Love and respect to both. Ivanchuk at this age is still in love with chess.
If you see when they were both playing during the time scramble, they both looked so stressed that even Danya needed some time to settle and calm down his nerves when it was over
Most horrifying chess video I have seen. Ivanchuk is such a legend, and honestly the guy needs a hug. Man has got nothing to prove, he will be considered among the top 10 chess players of all time. The final time scramble with Naroditsky and Ivanchuk blitzing out moves with their whole body is an image I'll not soon forget. Class act by Danya not to try to celebrate, and just calmly walk away.
@benjamindillard2391 he is definetely top 10 in terms of talent, other top players always considered him as a genius, but its true he is not top 10 in terms of accomplishments, probably due to lack of emotional control and time managament throughout his whole career., just like in this video unfortunately.
I really appreciate how Daniel Naroditsky showed repect for Ivanchuk by sitting their silently after the game ended. He also did not feel good about winning against Ivanchuk.
lol , he stood there for the memes and the youtube views he did not say a word or tried to comfort his opponent, in this case you should stand up and leave chucky alone, kid is a true dirt really , pest
Yeah but u r thinking too much ........but I remember once tal beats young Kasparov at 55 same age as ivanchuk right now in same blitz championship 1992 💀💀
To be fair & to make you feel better, Ivanchuk has always been EXACTLY like this (top players are on record 20 years ago saying Ivanchuk is a highly emotional player which causes him to perform badly in critical moments), so I doubt he’s crying because he’s getting too old or whatever people think - he’s a bit of an eccentric ‘romantic’ type, which is why he’s so interesting. He is known to wear his heart on his sleeve, and isn’t embarrassed by it. I think every top player has felt exactly like this when they lost, probably even Danya after he lost the rapid world championship just a few days ago after being the sole lead, it’s just that Chuck is less concerned what others are thinking.

Sending love to Vasily Ivanchuk from Armenia. You are an inspiration, a true legend, a king of the game, and the love of all the fans around the world are the jewels in your crown.
It is incredibly difficult at a deep level to know you are still so good but just your body can't keep up. A game you've dedicated your whole life to, a body now betraying you with. Vasyl you are a legend of a rare breed.

*There is a lot to appreciate here.* All the wonderful things people are saying about Ivanchuk and Danya are commendable in themselves...considering the Internet culture today. So, kudos to everyone who posted with compassion.
Ivanchuck is a legend. How he found all those moves when he was under attack to maintain his advantage - in seconds - shows how incredible a player he is. God bless him. Which one of your "legends" do you think will be as strong as him at his age? I'll wait...
Do not get misled by his white hair. He is only 55 years old. But yes, he is still very good for his age. Vishwanath Anand is only about nine months younger than him and he still features in the list of top 10 players in the FIDE classical ratings. They are legends, both of them.
Nice to see that the old lion still have the passion for the game. I hope players of today will have the same zeal as Ivanchuk when they get to his age.
@@lanagrossman489 Regardless if he was distracting or not, you'd still lose because you are nowhere near the level of these guys. Don't assume you know what they would do, since NOBODY reported Ivanchuk anyways (which tells you that you're alone in your opinions).
@@volcanogamer6758 You know what really pathetic. The dude commented everywhere. He had a huge hater boner for this 55 years old for some reason. He talk about manner, and throwing a circus. While acting like a bitter no class 5 years old. But he just want everyone to know that he really really really hate Ivanchuk.
One of my favorite players, true legend this meant the world to him and the frustration runs deep for whatever reason to him, highly emotional still a legend
What a gentleman Narodystky is, he did not run away instead he kept solemne attitude, looking down, staying in the moment, accompaining the feelings of chuky
@@sliceserve234 He pointed at the clock because Ivanchuk had lost on time but didn't notice If you dislike chess players "pulling faces," you need to watch more footage of live games. Kasparov made all sorts of goofy faces while playing. Loads of other players do the same Just say you dislike the guy. No need to try to intellectualize it
@@sliceserve234 Yep. I do appreciate the honesty. Judging from your other comments, you seem to just dislike the chess players who are popular in more mainstream circles
@@ghostwitch644 it does seem that way sometimes even to me, but i do think there is a method to my madness. Jan Gustaffson, Maurice Ashley, Ginger GM, Leko, off the top of my head several that I do love. It IS possible!
That's just heartbreaking. We simply love you, Ivanchuk! Thank you so much for all the years you've dedicated to this game without ever losing your passion.
It might seem funny to look at grown man crying but just remember that guy spent many hours of the day for many years dedicating his life to the game. Respect to Ivanchuk for showing his true passion and still competing at this age. He is a true inspiration to me and many others. Hold your head high legend!
Danya is such a kind person. This is truly heartbreaking. We can only imagine the feeling on the back of a brilliant career, coming to terms with slowing down.
Wow! A passionate cry is an epic human experience, one that graces us with its rarity. Watching Ivanchuk sit there, crying stands as an inspiration personified.
Thanks, this shows how tough and brutal chess is 💔♟️. It is not only about losing the game, the cry reflects the frustration of Ivanchuk the legend 🙇 has with his deterioration of gameplay with age!!!!
This is why we love Chucky so much. His love and passion for the game truly is worn on his sleeve and those of us who have followed the game for long enough, know how much he has dedicated to chess. I hope he recovers from this loss quickly, to play some more fabulous games again soon 🙏
I am nobody and not rated but i feel really bad and demoralised whenever i lost in chess due to time. I carry it until i sleep, how much more with these GMs like Ivanchuk who has a deep passion about this game. Respect!!!
chucky has always had nerves and emotional problems after losing critical games, even during his youth. I used to remember the 90's manila interzonal where he thought he was going to be the interzonal champ only to be overtaken by gelfand in the tie break
Its very hunting to watch . For that age he played so well must be proud not crying because he did so good almost winning at the end but the age that makes him slow that's why he maybe felt so bad 😢😢😢.
Man, this is really heart breaking 💔 he played such a good chess and just lost because of time pressure it's so unfair because I can also feel his emotions 😔
Ivanchuk's play after Bd4 to survive and prove the advantage is incredible. At 9:36 putting the rook on f1 and then sacking it on f3 to promote the pawn is so hard to find in a time scramble like that.
Good point, wanted to say something similar. That was So hard to play. But didnt saw this nice idea. Thinked that after both sack a rook. The second White pawn wins.
This is the most emotional moment I have ever witnessed in chess for last 50 years. I cried too, because I know mind and body don’t work together as they used to at this age..
Yes . He is almost certainly crying because of the realization that he is becoming old and that his cognitive capabilities are decreasing (an inevitable consequence of the second law of thermodynamics that will happen to all of us) and that there is no cure nor even a prevention for its worsening. Maybe for someone who lives a mentally passive life, the cognitive declines that come with age strike them as less psychologically devastating than the physical ones, but imagine those like Ivanchuck who dedicate their lives and build their entire self worth around activities where you need to think presciently and quickly; he was in a winning position here but lost because of time, and he had lost to other opponents because of the time in this tournament too. This particular game knocked him out of advancement. This is as psychologically devastating as an athlete getting a career ending injury in Father Time. The pain he feels is amplified further by the fact that he was world number 2 in his prime and that if he had the mental speed he had then he would steamroll this opponent.
Couldn’t watch it to the end. Feel so sorry for my country man and legend Vasyl. Chess is truly an incredible and very cruel game. Thank you to Danya for the respect he showed at the end.
Ivanchuk will forever be a legend. Immortalized for creativity and his cunning attacks over the board. He contributed a humanity and relaxed nature that was sorely needed in professional chess with his whimsy and jokes. Truly one of the most naturally gifted ever. He could retire tomorrow and still be considered among the greats. Few players with a career as long as his could still keep up with the worlds elite. I hope Chucky realizes he's cemented himself as a legend and has nothing to prove. We should all thank him for the countless inspiring & entertaining games
Ivanchuk é um apaixonado pelo jogo de xadrez....ele sente como ninguém as nuances do jogo, vibrando e chorando por cada lance. Ivanchuk eterno! Sempre terá meu respeito e meu carinho. Parabéns Chuck ❤
Ya la tenía ganada la partida pero se le fue, fue triste verlo llorar así, se nota que ama el ajedrez y lo importante que es para ellos, en un momento pensé: no debería ponerse así que mal, pero luego he comprendido mejor la situación. Grande Ivanchuk, es una leyenda viviente.
Vasyl ... buddy .. i loved your passion before and i love it even more now. No shame. That was a crushing way to lose a game. We've all been there after a painful loss. Im a fan forever now. Takes a real man to wear his emotions on the sleeve that way. I can only respect it. Still lots of chess for you to play yet sir. Grind never stops.
And yet we have Nakamura complaining about brain not functioning well due to his "old" age of 37. For comparison, Ivanchuk is 55 and still swinging hard, not complaining about anything.
@@lanagrossman489 Again, I'll keep responding to you since you seem to spread rude information. Nobody complained, expect for you who ISN"T event playing.
Once a man, twice a child. The game of chess you loved as a child once brought you to tears when an older opponent defeated you. Now, it brings tears again-this time, as a younger player outmatches you. Yet, the love for the game remains, and the child within you is still there-it’s just grown older.
Ivanchuk will always remain a supreme talent, he alread won Gold the World Blitz Championship in 2007 and World Rapid Championship in 2016. besides a lot of other olympic medals. In 2013, Gawain Jones called Ivanchuk "possibly the most talented player ever". When asked in 2012 to name chess players she considered geniuses, Judit Polgár named only Ivanchuk, Carlsen and Anand. Also class act by Danya, he handled the situation perfectly, Ivanchuk is probably one of his heros, and to see your hero in a situation like that, one might get nervous and act foolishly out of awkwardness
We feel for Chuky but these emotions show how much the games mean to them and make sport great. So, I see nothing wrong with posting this video by CBI.
This video shows that after show Carlson put with swearing now everyone is going to come out with some bizarre behaviour and officials will do nothing because people don’t want to see chess they want to see scandals
@@lanagrossman489 Delusional, nobody is going to replicate what Ivanchuk did (which is an emotional breakdown) on purpose. For the third time, you are not a doctor, he does not need medication. Go back to your office desk job or do something productive.
One reason a lot of top players, from Fischer to Morphy to Kasparov and probably Carlsen quit at the top. The thought of losing to some relative patzer at an advanced age is too much to bear.
can we also talk about the game itself, of how resourcefulness Ivanchuk is here? the relentless attack of Danya, and we saw a very brave king of Ivanchuk
Ivanchuk had 7/10 going into round 11, and to get into the next round you needed a 9 out of 13, meaning he would have had to get 2 points out of the next three rounds, so a win plus two draws or two more wins would have done it, albeit against strong opposition. Doable but not easy.
He has already been a rapid and blitz world champion in 2007 and 2016 respectively. I initially thought that he might be upset that he'd never be a world champion but that's not the case.
Chessis his life and in this moment he felt that it's becoming impossible for him to play at the level he was used to. He basically felt his own mortality.

@@aliburhan2888 what’s wrong with crying? You shouldn’t criticize a person for crying for u don’t know what’s happening in Ivanchuks life
@@aliburhan2888 clearly you've never been passionate about anything in your life to come up with a take like that
this was the most emotional chess we got in a while. Without drama
kudos to Danya for matching emotions
Sending love to Vasyl the GOAT
The Passion for the Game cannot be matched.
Ivanchuk has always been so close yet so far.
Vasily you will always be the true legend for me and for probably the most players who watched your games. Love from Croatia for you gentleman ❤
Nice to see that the old lion still have the passion for the game. I hope players of today will have the same zeal as Ivanchuk when they get to his age.
@@lanagrossman489 Regardless if he was distracting or not, you'd still lose because you are nowhere near the level of these guys. Don't assume you know what they would do, since NOBODY reported Ivanchuk anyways (which tells you that you're alone in your opinions).
@@volcanogamer6758 You know what really pathetic. The dude commented everywhere. He had a huge hater boner for this 55 years old for some reason. He talk about manner, and throwing a circus. While acting like a bitter no class 5 years old. But he just want everyone to know that he really really really hate Ivanchuk.
Naroditsky never thought that the saddest he'd ever feel at the chessboard would be after winning a game.
Ivanchuk is old enough to be his dad, I imagine for Danya it wasn't that different than seeing dad crying.
@@Sugarman96 Ivanchuk is old enough to be his grandfather 😉
@@sourcejuma6669 Ivanchuk is 55 and Danya is 29, so not quite
Legends don't lose, they simply win hearts..
well said
Still, I find this display pathetic.
Very touching to watch. Ivanchuck is a legent and much respect to Naroditsky for showing such class and respect!
Even after few decades playing at top, still have that passion.
Nothing but respect to legend ivanchuk
Chess in its purest form. Thanks for uploading with no music, no commentary
One of my favorite players, true legend this meant the world to him and the frustration runs deep for whatever reason to him, highly emotional still a legend
@lanagrossman489 He needs medication about as much as you need a functioning brain.
@@lanagrossman489 And so do you - Final comment.
What a gentleman Narodystky is, he did not run away instead he kept solemne attitude, looking down, staying in the moment, accompaining the feelings of chuky
nah, he's a freak and acted like a freak like freaks do. pointing at the clock. pulling faces during the end of the game. i can't stand the guy.
@@sliceserve234 He pointed at the clock because Ivanchuk had lost on time but didn't notice
If you dislike chess players "pulling faces," you need to watch more footage of live games. Kasparov made all sorts of goofy faces while playing. Loads of other players do the same
Just say you dislike the guy. No need to try to intellectualize it
@@ghostwitch644 fine, I dislike the guy. He is yet another chess freak who does not reflect well on our game. Happy now?
@@sliceserve234 Yep. I do appreciate the honesty. Judging from your other comments, you seem to just dislike the chess players who are popular in more mainstream circles
@@ghostwitch644 it does seem that way sometimes even to me, but i do think there is a method to my madness. Jan Gustaffson, Maurice Ashley, Ginger GM, Leko, off the top of my head several that I do love. It IS possible!
Respect to danya for how he handled the end
I cried with him. Nothing but love for you GM ivanchuk
naroditsky showed class (and utmost respect) to a living chess legend...
A fridge.
Ivanchuk could win this if not take d6 pawn and go king to c7
@@Mary-dx4vqI beg to differ. Sitting in silence was a display of respect and compassion.
What do you think Hans would've done in place of Dany?
@@Golem.8088 He supposedly said, "Chess speaks for itself."
I can imagine how that feels. Strength to you, Vasyl!
chess is brutal!!! but vasly my friend you are a legend.......this just shows how much you love this game. люблю тебе мій друже.
That's just heartbreaking. We simply love you, Ivanchuk! Thank you so much for all the years you've dedicated to this game without ever losing your passion.
Grande el maestro Ivanchuk como siente el ajedrez, es un verdadero león y un ídolo. El ajedrez es muy duro
It might seem funny to look at grown man crying but just remember that guy spent many hours of the day for many years dedicating his life to the game. Respect to Ivanchuk for showing his true passion and still competing at this age. He is a true inspiration to me and many others. Hold your head high legend!
This is the fallbacks of being only good at one thing in your life. Take the L stop crying
@@sIeepstudy man speaks 7 languages. he is genius, still not enough for your high standards????
it might seem funny? to whom?
I have never seen anything like this 😢@@xoranginho
Also, he's crushing Danya here...
You know anand said i don't miss being on the stage because its painful and people suffer there.
people who don't play the game don't understand its incredible potential for cruelty
@@sliceserve234how true.
Danya is such a kind person. This is truly heartbreaking. We can only imagine the feeling on the back of a brilliant career, coming to terms with slowing down.
Love you Ivanchuk, you’ll always be a legend and inspiration to me ❤
Wow! A passionate cry is an epic human experience, one that graces us with its rarity. Watching Ivanchuk sit there, crying stands as an inspiration personified.
Thanks, this shows how tough and brutal chess is 💔♟️. It is not only about losing the game, the cry reflects the frustration of Ivanchuk the legend 🙇 has with his deterioration of gameplay with age!!!!
This is why we love Chucky so much. His love and passion for the game truly is worn on his sleeve and those of us who have followed the game for long enough, know how much he has dedicated to chess. I hope he recovers from this loss quickly, to play some more fabulous games again soon 🙏
Naroditsky’s reaction was total class. A true gentleman.
I'm crying. This is so sad.
Seriously??
@@lanagrossman489 Oh, and get reported since apparently you can't handle emotions.
@@lanagrossman489lol
We still Love you,Vasyl. You're a beautiful human being,no matter what.
wow
That hurts !!
its okay Chucky you are and will be a legend in our hearts
I learned some of the most crucial middle game strategies from Ivanchuk games. A genius like him is a gem for the chess world. Always a legend ❤️
I am nobody and not rated but i feel really bad and demoralised whenever i lost in chess due to time. I carry it until i sleep, how much more with these GMs like Ivanchuk who has a deep passion about this game. Respect!!!
chucky has always had nerves and emotional problems after losing critical games, even during his youth. I used to remember the 90's manila interzonal where he thought he was going to be the interzonal champ only to be overtaken by gelfand in the tie break
Its very hunting to watch . For that age he played so well must be proud not crying because he did so good almost winning at the end but the age that makes him slow that's why he maybe felt so bad 😢😢😢.
I love Ivanchuk. He's a pure soul. The pain of getting old is real.
We feel you Vasyl Ivanchuck For the Love of the Game Chess♟️😌♟️💞
Man, this is really heart breaking 💔 he played such a good chess and just lost because of time pressure it's so unfair because I can also feel his emotions 😔
Ivanchuk's play after Bd4 to survive and prove the advantage is incredible. At 9:36 putting the rook on f1 and then sacking it on f3 to promote the pawn is so hard to find in a time scramble like that.
Good point, wanted to say something similar. That was So hard to play. But didnt saw this nice idea. Thinked that after both sack a rook. The second White pawn wins.
This is the most emotional moment I have ever witnessed in chess for last 50 years. I cried too, because I know mind and body don’t work together as they used to at this age..
Yes . He is almost certainly crying because of the realization that he is becoming old and that his cognitive capabilities are decreasing (an inevitable consequence of the second law of thermodynamics that will happen to all of us) and that there is no cure nor even a prevention for its worsening. Maybe for someone who lives a mentally passive life, the cognitive declines that come with age strike them as less psychologically devastating than the physical ones, but imagine those like Ivanchuck who dedicate their lives and build their entire self worth around activities where you need to think presciently and quickly; he was in a winning position here but lost because of time, and he had lost to other opponents because of the time in this tournament too. This particular game knocked him out of advancement. This is as psychologically devastating as an athlete getting a career ending injury in Father Time.
The pain he feels is amplified further by the fact that he was world number 2 in his prime and that if he had the mental speed he had then he would steamroll this opponent.
The audience enjoying the ending just to realize the Ivanchuk has started crying. The smile on every face went away like it wasn't even there.
Couldn’t watch it to the end. Feel so sorry for my country man and legend Vasyl. Chess is truly an incredible and very cruel game.
Thank you to Danya for the respect he showed at the end.
We may be living longer than we did a thousand years ago but getting older is still getting older.
He lost a game, but wins all the hearts of chess community all over the world.
Ivanchuk will forever be a legend. Immortalized for creativity and his cunning attacks over the board. He contributed a humanity and relaxed nature that was sorely needed in professional chess with his whimsy and jokes.
Truly one of the most naturally gifted ever. He could retire tomorrow and still be considered among the greats. Few players with a career as long as his could still keep up with the worlds elite.
I hope Chucky realizes he's cemented himself as a legend and has nothing to prove.
We should all thank him for the countless inspiring & entertaining games
Ivanchuk é um apaixonado pelo jogo de xadrez....ele sente como ninguém as nuances do jogo, vibrando e chorando por cada lance. Ivanchuk eterno! Sempre terá meu respeito e meu carinho. Parabéns Chuck ❤
Зачем я это посмотрел? Душераздирающее видео. Не могу успокоиться. Василий Михайлович легенда!
You guys have recorded a piece of history. Have recorded a memory for the humanity to come
Ya la tenía ganada la partida pero se le fue, fue triste verlo llorar así, se nota que ama el ajedrez y lo importante que es para ellos, en un momento pensé: no debería ponerse así que mal, pero luego he comprendido mejor la situación. Grande Ivanchuk, es una leyenda viviente.
Vasyl ... buddy .. i loved your passion before and i love it even more now. No shame. That was a crushing way to lose a game. We've all been there after a painful loss.
Im a fan forever now. Takes a real man to wear his emotions on the sleeve that way. I can only respect it.
Still lots of chess for you to play yet sir. Grind never stops.
The thing is that Vassily means Chess, the chess is his life, so it's painful to him.. we are with you Vassyl!!
And yet we have Nakamura complaining about brain not functioning well due to his "old" age of 37.
For comparison, Ivanchuk is 55 and still swinging hard, not complaining about anything.
Hate watching is pretty pathetic dude.
Poor Ivanchuk 😢 its sad to see him like this wish it gets better ❤
Unfortunately, it does not get better as you get older.
This man is my hero and still fighting with the top of the field, it's brutally competitive..pure inspiration
This goes to show how much Ivanchuk loves the game of chess.
Losing hurts but losing when you should have won hurts the most.
Because of your explanation all players start to scream and cry and create a circus. ???
@@lanagrossman489 Ivanchuk didn't create a circus. You must be really fun at parties.
@@lanagrossman489 C'mon who hurt you? You're replying in every comments. You're the one creating circus.
@@lanagrossman489 Again, I'll keep responding to you since you seem to spread rude information. Nobody complained, expect for you who ISN"T event playing.
shut up @@lanagrossman489
He didn’t storm out, nor wear jeans to an event respect ✊
Once a man, twice a child. The game of chess you loved as a child once brought you to tears when an older opponent defeated you. Now, it brings tears again-this time, as a younger player outmatches you. Yet, the love for the game remains, and the child within you is still there-it’s just grown older.
Ivanchuk will always remain a supreme talent, he alread won Gold the World Blitz Championship in 2007 and World Rapid Championship in 2016. besides a lot of other olympic medals.
In 2013, Gawain Jones called Ivanchuk "possibly the most talented player ever". When asked in 2012 to name chess players she considered geniuses, Judit Polgár named only Ivanchuk, Carlsen and Anand.
Also class act by Danya, he handled the situation perfectly, Ivanchuk is probably one of his heros, and to see your hero in a situation like that, one might get nervous and act foolishly out of awkwardness
We feel for Chuky but these emotions show how much the games mean to them and make sport great. So, I see nothing wrong with posting this video by CBI.
This video shows that after show Carlson put with swearing now everyone is going to come out with some bizarre behaviour and officials will do nothing because people don’t want to see chess they want to see scandals
@@lanagrossman489 Delusional, nobody is going to replicate what Ivanchuk did (which is an emotional breakdown) on purpose.
For the third time, you are not a doctor, he does not need medication.
Go back to your office desk job or do something productive.
For some people chess is just a game but for this kind of people chess is passion. Your one of the legends sir Ivanchuck salute.
OUCH!! Vassily was winning until time ran out! This must be devastating to watch his emotions.
no he was actually losing when time ran out
@@Alexander-dt2eqwe was fighting off the attacks well and had the upper hand but made a mistake. Did you spot it?
@@idlewild yes he should have made a queen
Of all tthe incidents that occurred in this tournament, this one is the most human and sad. Here's hoping that Vasyl is feeling better.
This made me tear up too, chess is such a ruthless game
One reason a lot of top players, from Fischer to Morphy to Kasparov and probably Carlsen quit at the top. The thought of losing to some relative patzer at an advanced age is too much to bear.
Man... See such a legendary Genius like ivanchuk losing like this is heartbreaking...
Pure Passion for Chess !! It means everything !!
can we also talk about the game itself, of how resourcefulness Ivanchuk is here? the relentless attack of Danya, and we saw a very brave king of Ivanchuk
Ivanchuk was doing so well until round 11.
He probably knows it is very unlikely he will have another chance like this.
Ivanchuk had 7/10 going into round 11, and to get into the next round you needed a 9 out of 13, meaning he would have had to get 2 points out of the next three rounds, so a win plus two draws or two more wins would have done it, albeit against strong opposition. Doable but not easy.
You are inspiring mr Ivanchuk!!
He has already been a rapid and blitz world champion in 2007 and 2016 respectively.
I initially thought that he might be upset that he'd never be a world champion but that's not the case.
he just loves the sport as you can see he still playing at his age
Former olympiad gold board one, tier for first for world junior championship, runner up to Fide World Championship in classic (during split title).
Also former world number 2 in classical rating.
what?? the 2016 winner was karjakin
Chessis his life and in this moment he felt that it's becoming impossible for him to play at the level he was used to. He basically felt his own mortality.
