Sagar, for a new chess player like me, your commentary has made all the difference in making me see a different side of chess and appreciating the game so much more. Kudos to you sir 👏
Stupid commentary, too much talking, do predictions on separate board, in chess there are many combinations but predicting only a few combinations doesn’t make sense.
Giga gave a strong fight and even the world champion felt it tough. Giga was giving pressure on the clock and on the board but magnus carlsen fought even tougher than Giga in the endgame. The endgame was fascinating and it was an extraordinary commentary by sagar. Thank you very much for giving a clear idea on this fantastic game.
@@BillMurey-om3zwyess even I have started listening to songs at 1.5x for songs 2x seems a lot faster it kills the vibe though if I watch 2-3 videos in 2x before listening to song then 2x is also fine for mee
i dont play chess but like watching most high level sports and competitions. The commentary of this guy is what makes it understandable for non chess players.
Well executed of commenting everymove by these professionals it’s easy to understand what about to happen and what will happen. This commentator from India is amazing, please keep up the good work and stay sharp on every move. Love it!
Like many other comments have said before. The commentary is amazing. I guess for more experienced player this might be happening in their heads. But for a noob like me it makes me 'feel' the game more so than just watching it. Super entertaining!
the analysis, preparation, timing, energy and editing are what make this commentary amazing. You see it is not live commentary from the time gaps while he speaks continuously and builds tension by describing alternate and optimal lines from the pre-done analysis. A true professional that has set the bar as high as it can go for post game commentary. He has made a very significant contribution to the great game of chess. These videos should be shared and promoted as widely as possible. Respect. 🫡
If someone has watched this game thoroughly, please tell me why didn’t giga advance his pawn to the other end to convert it into queen at 14:58. He moved his king to counterattack the bishop instead. That was a sheer blunder 😢
No, it wasn't a blunder. Both of Giga’s pawns are temporarily disadvantaged because their queening squares are easily defended by Magnus’ king and light-squared bishop. That gives Magnus a winning advantage since Giga does not have his own light-squared bishop and no way to control those squares. His knight cannot compete with the bishop pair, and his own dark-squared bishop is almost paralysed, blocking the pair of black pawns from advancing down the board. Give me a sample line from the White perspective and I will tell you how Black can defend against the pawn advance.
@@chinmayaprakash I completely understand that giga’s bishop is paralysed blocking the 2 Pawns from converting, my point is giga shouldn’t have traded his knight with Carlson’s bishop instead advanced the pawn although it was 2 squares away from carslen’s king and that would have surely diverted carlsen’s focus as he was running out of time. One shouldn’t offer a trade when the opponent is running out of time ⌛️
I wonder if the guy doing the commentating can play well against Magnus. He certainly does a great job of predicting and explaining the tbought process of the game
@@whatthat607yeah and he is also an im so he can basically understand what is the logic behind every move even though I am close to 1800 I was able to understand every move because it's hard to find the actual best move or game plan in the game but its easy to understand while watching it
What I noticed about Magnus that is unique to his endgame style. It's alot like Capablanca. He seems to give up some tactics for past pawns and he plays his endgame with trying to get as many pass pawns as he can. I studied Capablanca so my endgame style is to kill all the pawns and give no chances for a queen to appear.
This is peak commentary the play by play actually made it very exciting to watch.
Sagar is incredibly charismatic when providing commentary and this is a shining example of that.
yeah great job
Comms were fantastic!
He ruined it😊
@@Khiangte-Farm No, this is the best exciting commentary 🤩
Sagar, for a new chess player like me, your commentary has made all the difference in making me see a different side of chess and appreciating the game so much more. Kudos to you sir 👏
GOAT commentator. Best commentator out there in the Chess world. FIDE should pay you. Please commentate the Sinquefield cup!
Love how Magnus is more concerned with his name badge and how neatly the chess pieces are aligned than the game clock... now that's confidence!
That's OCD not confidence
@@Artificial_Dopamineit's both, bro has been the bes for like 10 years
I am also a big fan of this commentator, he's very good at bringing the excitement but still remaining very informative!
Kudos to Giga for his play :)
Yes, Giga put up a real multifaceted attack on Magnus.
What a commentary sagar sir keep it up 👍👍👍👍
6😄😁😁
Good but do your predictions on a separate board. 😅
Stupid commentary, too much talking, do predictions on separate board, in chess there are many combinations but predicting only a few combinations doesn’t make sense.
Keep predictions! They were insightful. If you cannot think of other moves watching while he comments, then mute it. Problem solved.
Then you go and do commentary stupid @@SreeramReddyB
Amazing commentary Sagar.
Giga brought a fight wouldn't be surprised if he won that match. He is definitely a strong GM
Giga Is Rated 2476 😅 and you are saying he is a strong GM 😂😂
My guy has Giga in his name so what less is expected 🗿
😅ldwp😅😅jl😅😮
Else was expected from you
9:50
There was a knight fork maybe :c
It removes the bishop threat :c
Giga paradise lol
This commentator is a genius, he almost knows what the next move for both players will be 😂🎉🎉
Because it's not real time commentary.... he makes a script after the game and simply narrates
@@shubhamrawat9248I don't think so
@younesssahoui3913 there were many timeskips. It's scripted.
@@JoshuaGeow yeah I noticed that thanks
He might be using a chess analysis tool
Giga gave a strong fight and even the world champion felt it tough. Giga was giving pressure on the clock and on the board but magnus carlsen fought even tougher than Giga in the endgame.
The endgame was fascinating and it was an extraordinary commentary by sagar. Thank you very much for giving a clear idea on this fantastic game.
I was watching the game in 2x speed and the commentary made the game way more intense , hats off Sagar Shah❤
Same
How the hell can you even understand anything going on at 2x speed during a speed chess game? Lol
@@3piecespicycards930 once you watch everything at 2x, anything at normal speed seems like a sloth talking.
@@BillMurey-om3zwyess even I have started listening to songs at 1.5x for songs 2x seems a lot faster it kills the vibe though if I watch 2-3 videos in 2x before listening to song then 2x is also fine for mee
I think hes face to face with stockfish. Or else hes more brilliant than magnus 🤔
12:30 What A Beautiful phrase "Magnus pown point understanding the position" and of course ground breaking commentary.🙏
play not point
Commentary is world class. Wish NFL was this exciting with the commentary.
Best chess commentary I've ever heard. Very exciting!
i dont play chess but like watching most high level sports and competitions. The commentary of this guy is what makes it understandable for non chess players.
I was actually on another device and I signed in just to say that the commentary was amazing.
This guy really is the best commentator in chess.
😂😂

If one can handle the accent. I find it very difficult. It takes my concentration away from the moves.
Naah.
@@johnwest7993yes also he is showing moves that also irritates
Sagar is the best chess commentator! Brilliant brain, monster enthusiasm!
9:40 most iconic word ever spoken, gets me everytime

Sagar shah also having a great contribution toward indian chess as his comentator skills is superb
It make boring game such amazing
Brelient
Chess videos are supposed to be slow and boring. But thanks to the commentator, I felt like watching a F1 race.
They aren't boring if you're actually interested in the variations lol
I feel the same: tremendous commentary, like a suspense movie: makes chess alive.
these blitz and bullet matches are not slow
This commentary is unprecedented. This guy was so hyped the entire time.
I watch this for the narrator. Your enthusiasm is off the charts!
The commentary got me interested
Well executed of commenting everymove by these professionals it’s easy to understand what about to happen and what will happen. This commentator from India is amazing, please keep up the good work and stay sharp on every move. Love it!
That commentator deserves an award!👏👏👏
11:26 Magnus should've played bishop to h4 . that was a briliiant move that sagar and magnus couldn't see.
Your commentary is enthusiastic and very entertaining. This will be my one chess channel subscription.
Bro, the commentary is high level man. Keep it up!
Great handshake / respect from Magnus to Giga :) And what an amazing commentary. Congrats!
Like many other comments have said before. The commentary is amazing. I guess for more experienced player this might be happening in their heads. But for a noob like me it makes me 'feel' the game more so than just watching it. Super entertaining!
The force Magnus used for the handshake at the end tells his opponent that u should not play that fast against the world no. 1
The commentator was knowing all the top variations even before they were played actually on the board 😂
Magnus always calculating his move
The best and strongest strategy 💪
New sub! Great commentary and chess explanations!
Great game, great commentary. Made the stratergy understandable.
The commentary is on point 🙌🏽🙏🏾

Great commentary from my chess hero sagar....Thank you sir.
I like the commentary. It's interesting because the commentary has clearly been added later but it seems like he's commentating live on the game.
Best chess commentator of all time! Thought for a moment I was watching the last lap of the Indy 500! Not really, but seriously, amazing commentary. 😂
Bro that was so freaking entertaining, great commentary hahaha

IM Sagar Shah's commentary is second to none.
yea the commentary is actually best quality of all time. This guy can make a snail race seem exciting (not saying this game is not exciting by itself)
Came for a chess game. Stayed for the commentary. Omg. Amazing 😂
Magnus is the king of end game.🏆
wow awesome commentary, I didn't know chess could be this exciting!
Love the commentary!! Good job
Wow. The best game commentator I've ever heard! Awesome

I subscribed to the channel because of how good the announcer / commentary is.
Hands down best solo chess commentator
wie knapp und welch ein Druck! Großartig!
I agree with everyone. Some of the best commentary for chess I’ve ever saw! Well done

Love listening to your explaining the throughout the games. 👍✌️
From USA.
Giga was left in shock towards the end 🤣🤣
Great game and commentary!
Are we sure the commentator shouldn't be world champion? My bro was seeing stuff that no one could 🤯
The difference is that he had more than 15 minutes, and had access to chess engines lol.

This narrator could narrate grass growing and I would be excited
Idk why I get more excited about chess matches like this than a football game or something. Just seems weird lol
The commentry makes it so much more interesting.
Best Chess commentator. PERIOD
