Nepo defending fabi with “you had low time” and “its hard to see” really show how much of a great human he is
Nepo showed real class in that moment
Actually gained a lot of respect for Nepo. When they left the board the last thing he said to Fabi was "I'm sorry"
I am not a Nepo fan, but definitely gained a lot of my respect with how he handled that. Not only the situation as a whole, which is obviously tough -- but to go out of his way to lift up his opponent. Good guy Nepo.
Timestamp?
Man has carried himself well win or lose.
"I feel like an idiot". Very heartbreaking.
"and i am happy" - Levon Aronian
He should. He’s no 2 in the world and choked with a +5 lead
when did he say that?
At the beginning
Beginning beginning @@agustincai
Oh god.. the prolonged suffering for both
Ian's been there before lol. That interview post-blunder against Magnus is still probably the toughest one he had to do.
@@Tyrantofthewind Yes. I can still remember those long questions after he defended the 120+ moves against Magnus in the queen vs 2 rooks end game. Those are just crazy.
It's just another day for Ian
@@abhisheth588 Not two rooks. Queen Vs Rook + Knight + I guess 2 pawns.
More for Fabi!
“After this game do you believe in destiny” how much more insensitive can you be. I wish chess interviews weren’t this painful.
I was thinking the same. Why in the world would she ask something like that to such a great player.
She has been terrible the whole tournament. "I guess you guys just are destined to play second fiddle your whole lives, tough luck, huh?"
These press conferences were horrific, couldn't agree more at how terrible that question was!
@@firebug3256 LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Idk why they bring this old granny for such crucial interviews .. she should stay in home looking after her grand children
Nepo's reaction when she asked Fabi how he felt was perfect. He barely kept himself from saying "how the f**k do you think he feels?"
And Fabiano's smile.. The last year gave us so many dramatic moments in terms of the WC title
well its just a board game
@@KatoYutobe in the same way your office job is just moving some paper around. It's not just a board game to us.
To add fuel to the fire, Nepo appeared to be struggling to contain himself from breaking into tears since the beginning of the press conference, and Fabi's smile gave out an "Are you SERIOUS??" kind of feeling.
@@smwg4187 Well, his office job probably has a deeper purpose. Playing chess is solely for our entertainment, just like any other sport (just not watched as much as other sports).
Ian can't even look at the camera. His body language is hiding his face and he only looks over to Fabi. Both players are exhausted and still show up to the press conference.
Are they even allowed to skip press conference after a draw ? I might be wrong here, but I feel like there is no way they would show up unless they are forced to
@@sergeykostrov7948they have to as part of their agreement
You're right. Most sports have mandatory media responsibilities for players and they get fined for skipping them.
@@sergeykostrov7948 They probably have a contract to do interviews, but I think they could allow extenuating circumstances. Asking them to analyze the game in this moment is pretty shite if they don't want to.
He just wants to run and hide under a bed at this point but cruel media persons wont let him ☹️
Undefeated Ian Nepomniachtchi
Nepo had more than a fare share of try in WC. Nw he is done🤩🤩🤩
Yes
Undefeated, but also unwinning
@@kendrickpadillabtbf he won a couple of times. And draws are part of his strategy
Gukesh was undefeated but his blitz 😅skill entered the chat against alireza
7:18 "But it's amazing not to win this position." Fabi will regret this game for so long.
That's why Magnus is at another level compared to Fabi et al. He would never miss that.
It's one of those "if that was I puzzle I think I could have found it" but being in that position after 14 days and 5 hours... man. So rough.
Would have only been a tie-break which he probably would have lost anyways given how good Gukesh was playing.
His whole life probably
Ok
"I feel like an idiot"
"It's amazing not to win this position"
Caruana's clearly suffering here, and it's hard not to feel for him.
Also, "Do you believe in destiny ?"
Why would you possibly ask something like that after what happened ? Is she trying to imply they were never meant to win ? Who comes up with such questions ? Whoever it was, needs to be fired for that alone.
I thought the interviewer was awful. Also interjecting their own analysis while 2 super GM’s are analysing back and forth, just no.
Having read your comment I can't watch......
this PR person is horrible in every press conference
I mean of course there’s karma and destiny but he lost world championship and now candidates because he’s weak in blitz. Hopefully he’ll take some responsibility and try to fix his weakness.
Why so harsh? She is only doing her job. It's pretty tough to interview the players after such an emotional rollercoaster ride, which ended badly for both.
And it's not her fault there are press conferences to begin with.
Mad respect to Nepo for continuing to fight they way he did.
Yeah, especially since he didn't have anything to gain at this point.
There were no realistic winning chances whatsoever.
A draw only meant Caruana doesn't get tie-breaks, but the outcome is the same for Nepo either way.
@@Blinkers2007GameDevthat's exactly what is called "match fixing"
Win like this only will harm your opponent, cause that's something really out of boundaries for sportsmanship
@@vibovitold That is inaccurate for at least 2 reasons:
- There is a 3500 dollars as a reward for the haft point, furthermore begins 4th (which would result in even less prize money).
- Furthermore chess is not blunder proof... And Ian wasn't really playing for a draw, because he had some occasion to dry out the position that he did not jump over... Fabi was in time trouble and a mistake in a complex position is not impossible even for a player like Fabi. And it can help to recover from the tournament knowing you have give it your best.
Considering the money aspect alone, which is not huge but still exist, he has not interest whatsoever in giving the win to Fabi...
The harsh aspect of chess is also that in the end Fabi played really poorly for a player of his strength and did not win the game, period. I do feel sorry for him, but that doesn't help the fact that he did not win, when he could have and basically had to.
Look like some people don't know about sportsmanship
@@Blinkers2007GameDev "hy not just resign and let tie break happen?"
that would be very poor sportsmanship on Nepo's part. a player should always play to their best ability. not throw games because of any external circumstances.
Fabi is so angry on himself that he started laughing, such a sad moment to witness. He will comeback stronger next time
So poor at handling pressure. Doubt whthr he is World champion material
Yes
@@jazzydriven2784kidding? He is incredible at managing emotions, this has to be maybe the second hardest loss in his career
It was his greatest chance as now Indian grand masters who are young gonna dominate the tournament of chess for a long time . We have Gukesh, Pragga and many more are on the way.
@@gus8696 no point in being incredible if u can't deliver when it matters🥰
The "I'm so sorry. It's my bad." At the end of the livestream is the most saddest exchanged I've ever seen. Followed up by Nepo head down on, slamming the table is soul crushing.
can you put the link to that moment of that video?
It's on Chessbase India RUclips channel, their entire discussion post game. Search Ian apologies to Fabiano and you'll get there
Im sorry - Ian
My fault - Fabi
Respect to Ian for giving praise to Fabi throughout this press conference and basically saying Fabi should've won. I hope in the future FIDE decides to get a better Press Officer. Asking at 7:35 if Fabi believes in destiny was such a weird question given the circumstances, and you can tell Fabi didn't like the question.
True
True ... None of the players in the candidates are bad ... All of them are truly exceptional .. especially fabi, nepo and hikaru. But there has to be one winner which is cruel. Anyways congrats to ma man gukesh, truly a gem !!
Incredibly daft question that should disqualify her for the future. I couldn't believe my ears.
Please cut the woman some slack! Even grandmasters blunder. She gave them an opportunity to be philosophical but when they demurred, she didn't badger. She felt the grave tragedy of the situation, asked questions for the sake of the chess historical record, then sensitive to the situation, diplomatically declined to ask more questions when there were no further ones from the press pool and closed the session (~10 minutes). That's professional and all you can ask. I thought she did a great job throughout the tournament.
@@scottedmiston5850she closed the session??, there were no questions for the players and analysis was over, nothing more to do, saying how do you feel at the start, I could rule that as idiotic, but saying is it destiny that you didn't win to the second highest rated player in the WORLD is another level of insensitivity 🙄, anyone with a basic EQ can tell you that this was an awful thing to say.
One of the most insane matches in over a decade. Both of them can hold their heads high for putting on a valiant battle, one that will forever be etched in the history books!
You are damn right about that. This one's going in the history books no matter what. The time scramble and the dramatic scenario won't probably resist the test of time as good, but the game itself surely will.
Nope.Fabiano clearly blundered
@@higherbeingX Yes. And that's why it will go down in History. There is nothing more instructive because the Position was at many points absolutely insanely complex and both players blundered like 5 times because of it.
This is exactly the Kind of position that will, and has to be, studied for a long time.
Nobody studies an easily won position.
@@keizan5132the only reason as to why thsi game is important is tge scenario the game itself is not
@@higherbeingXblundered is the wrong word, I'm sure he'll say he did but not realising that a 3 move tactic is your only win with only a minute or two on the clock isn't a blunder as much as it is a missed opportunity - before time control he played a few inaccuracies which made the position much harder to win and while he gave him some chances, Ian defended very well and would've won had you or I been playing him
Nepomniachtchi could have admitted that he had lost the match and resign. But like a true warrior, he fought to the end
Fabi's fault - he choked again
I mean he probably would've acceped resignation in a normal game, but in this circumstance drawing and losing means little difference. He was playing on to hope a mistake big enough that allows for winning chances was his motivation to keep going.
"The hardest thing is winning a won game".
@@TheSLK66No, "The most difficult thing is to win on equal terms"
Why give up when your opponent wastes all his time? You know that when he has to make 6 moves in 3 minutes with life changing results on the line, you will have the advantage. I really don't know why super GMs let themselves get low on time like Fabi did. There isn't a format where where one player gets 2 hours and the other gets 17 seconds. That is a joke game that someone like Magnus plays when he is drunk and playing against a couple of teenage girls. Why? Because that isn't fair. Time matters, a lot.
they look so done, that was a rollercoaster of a match to watch
no questions... even the reporters were exhausted
I think it was more out of respect for the players. Both of them were devastated after that game.
@@kunjranpura305yes
@@kunjranpura305 100% true
must be the first press conference with no questions for anyone 🤣
Firouzja and Abasov had none either.
I mean it would be cruel to ask them question after such heartbreak.
Yes, the organisers are humane
What's so funny? Everyone could see they were clearly heartbroken 🙄
@@keithstack6321 no one watched it either
This is the most depressing thing I have ever watched. Heart goes out to both
Two chess players drawing a game is the most depressing thing??? You are a lucky person
@@jazzydriven2784 you don't know the context of it. You just see the draw, what you don't see is the storyline that has lead them to this point after years of preparation. Not to mention the game today itself, it was the most thrilling ever in recent history. You are speaking from a point of naivety.
@@chascaljr8415 still, two players drawing a game (following a thrilling game and a storyline of hard prep) is the most depressing thing u hd in ur life so far, fair to say u hv been a lucky person, dear🥰🥰
100%😢
For everyone saying that there are more depressing thing, the op meant that as a chess fan and in the context, what an obvious thing to say there are more depressing things, everybody KNOW
Fabi, you've demonstrated that you are one of the strongest players to ever play the game. It's a joy to watch you, regardless of what title you fight for!
Well all he demonstrated is how to lose a won game. If anyone it is Ian who demonstrated how strong he is
Yes
@@michaelscott1231 can't blame him, with 2 mins under the clock and the pressure + nerves, it's impossible for almost any player to see the best possible moves in that moment, they are still humans afterall.
@@michaelscott1231 Everyone is a grandmaster until they are in the deciding match with 2 minutes on the clock.
@@michaelscott1231 Fabi is the highest rated player in history after Magnus. He is as well over 30 (probably past his prime). He was able to not lose to Magnus when Magnus was in his prime in that WC. and maybe this was his last chance for being world champion. Put some respect to his name.
“It’s hard to win when u want to win desperately” ~ some wise man
Yes... Winning comes when you do your best without expectations
The wise man is magnus
Eu nem diria quando você quer vencer. Mas diria: "Quando você precisa vencer."
@@thecritic3443Wise quote. Some how psychological pressure can prevent one from finding the winning path forward.
7:41 -- "Do you believe in destiny?" -- Seriously, what kind of question was that.
I NEVER understand the point of asking "how do you feel" to someone who just lost the candidates.
Ian, we would have been great buddies. Huge fan of you. Huge respect for your fighting spirit, come back stronger.
I think Fabi will find it harder to swallow. Over the last 10-11 years, he has been easily the second best chess player in the world, the third highest rated chess player in history, and the closest to come to Magnus's level in Classical. After Magnus, if anyone deserved to be the World Champion from this generation, it had to be Fabi. But both Nepo and Fabi are still kind of young and very much in their prime, especially Fabi (31 years). They can still come back and win it.
Meanwhile he has a losing record against Hikaru lol and lost like the last four games in classical that Hikaru played with Black, so him being easily the best is dubious at best lol- Ding, Firouzja, Hikaru, etc., should not be disrespected like this lol- Hikaru was undefeated before his loses to Vidit, Firouzja was 2800+ and number 2 so was Ding, Fabi is not easily the second best lol
@@jessiejess-sj8pv hard to read "lol". Fabi has defenitly been the second best player now for a long time in classical. One look at the rating charts should be enough to understand that. I dont know what your yapping about.
In case of this tournament Nepo was doing excellent from the start though, in the top spot almost until the end, whereas Caruana was underperforming initially and only began catching up later on, scoring 3 wins (and a draw) in 4 consecutive games, which is quite a streak.
So in this sense Nepo's experience was sort of more painful, I imagine. He'd felt like he already had it, and then it slips away again
Until COVID came along Ding did challenge for that.
@vibovitold You are right, tough for Nepo too given how the tournament went. I hope they both return
I feel like an idiot - Fabi :( bad day
Nepo💔 I will always support you, you played a great tournament, Caruana too
Still your heart won't melt for the 17 year old Indian ?
Ok
@@catalanicsurya3089we can support many at once ❤
Hinata chan daisuki ❤
No? Wtf@@catalanicsurya3089
Imagine being so great at a game that you can't help but force a draw in a must win game for both guys. Kudos to both!
actually a LEGENDARY game, very 2018 Game 6-esque - without the engine it's impossible, like all the commentators exclaim the blunder but every single move they suggest is another blunder because it's SO COMPLICATED. Fabi played super well -- honestly the HUGE miss is move 40, such a win but missed a tactic and it became very complicated.
Which 2018 game are you referring to
@@michaelscott12312018 world championship caruana-carlsen
I think if there were no pressure fabi wpuld habe easiky found qe8 and qe2 or eould have hought longer before ka1 which was very weird not to think there
Complicated is one thing, but these guys are playing for hours (I believe the entire game lasted for like 6 hours, or close?).
They're both exhausted towards the end.
Had that game been adjourned half-way through, and resumed the next day - like they used to do decades ago - the accuracy would be very different.
Its actually move 41* after the time control!!💔
Ian literally became the best defender overnight
One of the saddest press conferences in the history of chess tournaments. Lots of love and respect to both the players, played like warriors.
Props to Nepo. He defended like the grandmaster he is. Fabiano also was finding accurate moves when it counted until the end and could not close the deal.
thx to the crowd for not asking questions in the end. it was a bit painful to watch them
Must be insane hearing all the cheers for Gukesh. Just adds salt to the injury
Don't make much sense if someone else have won people would have cheers for
I think Gukesh is a good person too. Only one person could win. There was no gloating, and the only off comments were by the interviewers who didn't know what to say, never having been in similar shoes.
This game is The Game of the Candidates ❤
I'm so so so so sad for both.
Heart breaking.
this game was LEGENDARY. a classic with INCREDIBLE DEPTH very similiar to 2018 game 6
Yes legendary, we got the youngest Candidates winner❤❤❤
Which 2018 game is it?
@@michaelscott1231 Game 6 from the magnus vs. fabi world championship match
@@jazzydriven2784 at this point we don't care, yes congrats to gukesh but people don't have to brag that their favorite "prodigy" won, these two are renowned players already that's why it's just devastating to see both of them lose their opportunity again to become world champions
@@isuck6049 time for the renowned players to gracefully leave so that the new gen gives a fight for Magnus... Very clear Naka, Fabi, Nepo cant dethrone Magnus... Nw let Guki, Nodirbek, Pragg, Keymer et al give a try🥰
I was there when they came outside after the draw, Nepo had Red eyes. I feel his passion about the game. He was crying inside. I want to say him 'Thank you' for defending well as Indian perspective. But, I went blank when I saw him in that moment. I don't know, how the last night went for both. But, it was the moment. Feel sorry for them.
Stay strong Fabi, and respect to Nepo. Hope both guys are back for at least one last candidates crack
I wish it was vishy who did interview as he would have been more impactful. Maybe +1 with Anna. Anna did a gr8 job thank you for everything
he wouldnt have been talking about them being fated to not win
i had a queen + 6 pawns vs queen + 2 pawns today in my tournament. obviously completely winning but felt for a cheapo and lost due to tactical oversight…but now that i see fabi game I dont feel as bad. chess is hard. sometimes you have a million way to win but finding the only one to lose can happen to anyone…sigh
Chin up, you’re winning tomorrow
The people saying that Nepo should’ve resigned are horrible people. Nepo played his best and you’re saying it’s useless. There was a money reward for placings. Fabiano would’ve been in a horrible chess scandal. All his further victories would be without legitimacy. He would get horrible impostor syndrome. Nepo did the right thing, but it was still a horrible outcome.
Also he was also playing for win, maybe Fabi can blunder & he gets the wi, he sets up a few traps at the end.
they drew but both lost
I consider Fabi to be one of the strongest not to win the World championship. He was close to winning against Magnus and so unlucky so far. My heart goes out to this amazing player.
In terms of absolute playing strength he might even be THE strongest (because modern players obviously have an edge over the players of the past).
But even if we account for that difference, he's still in pretty good company. Rubinstein, Geller, Bronstein, Korchnoi, Ivanchuk. Chess history isn't only world champions.
Magnus had that match under control, knew he could draw the classical games and win the blitz, as he did. Magnus never had Nepo under control and was almost down 2 after the first few games. Then Nepo cracked, but he was a huge threat in a rematch. Sometimes A beats B, B beats C, C beats A, which is strongest? But Nepo was the biggest threat against Magnus for sure. Maybe Fabi would have had good chances against Ding, although he could not handle Magnus.
Kudos to them for showing up for press conference and thoroughly analyzing their moves after a long chaotic game, they are gentlemen and their sportsmanship will really make happy all chess fans
Nepo is such an incredible person tbh❤
Poor lads, what a fight. Incredible players, both of them.
Fabi is a class act and heartbreaking to see him so devastated. Love Nepo..... lot of crazy events conspired to create history! Hope Gukesh carries on to win.
I saw live the whole match, pretty intense in every way
Nepo always came across to me as Arrogant rude person but yesterday he showed empathetic side of him. Him saying sorry to Fabi, defending Fabo was appreciable. 😢
rly, ive always tthought the opposite
@@WigSplitters you're thinking about hans. Ian is a good guy :)
@@radscorpion8 ?
I feel so bad for nepo 💔💔💔
Nepp had no chance though. Fabi had several penalties but missed.
@@henrykaspar3634 He was leading the entire tournament until the last few rounds which is why he would be upset I think
On top of playing a bad game
Honestly Nepo had more than fare share of shots at WC... He is just someone who was not destined to be ❤❤❤
@@xboxrules3787He was not the sole leader though.
Gukesh has always been together with him in the lead.
Also in last candidates nepo had great chances to win against ding but he ruined it
God bless these two men, Fabi and Ian. Chess is brutal, especially at the highest level.
Fabi knows. He knows he missed a huge win and this is going to haunt him for a long time.
"Oh Queen e2 now, OOFSHH " Nepo at 10:01 is just a mood :) . He knows caruana missed a sitter and he is thinking wow.
How is it that all of FIDE's interviewers are terrible at choosing and asking questions? "After this game do you believe in destiny?" The hell?
"Thanks Ian Nepomniachtchi". -Gukesh
"Thanks caruana" √√ gukesh
'was it destiny for you to lose in a cruelly heartbreaking fashion?' wtf kind of question
Complete moron, surely that's not the best interviewer they can find
9:28 "It says #28" lmao
"Yeah, i can read" 😂
One of the most intense and beautiful match. it was bliss to watch both of them fighting 💖
When u use 'one of,' use plural. Not match, it should be 'matches'
@@jazzydriven2784Brother this yt dont be a nerd here 😅, as long as you get the context of what he is trying to say it's fine lol
@@garvittiwari6266 dear, do not be adamant that we should not learn new things... U don't hv to be a nerd to understand basic English grammar🥰🥰
Nepo trying to be nice Fabi definitely had a win here and Nepo took it from him. Good on him, hopefully he improves his game over the next 18 months and comes back to get the world champ in 26.
watching fabi in that game is like watching a fire die out. Seriously if he was a cat he used up all his 9 lives in that match.
This must be the craziest game I've witnessed considering the stake. There has to be a guardian angel protecting Nepo from defeat😮, truly a fighter
Have to appreciate Fabiano's composure
Nepo is a boss for surviving that though
I could watch Fabi and Ian analyse all day. Absolute professionals of the highest quality both in terms of playing and discussing
People saying that Ian could just resign are such jokers... Do we really want make chess so unsportsmanlike, where people will resign just because their chance of winning are low? Fabi had so many opportunities and he failed all of them. World champion of chess cannot just scramble +4 or +7 lead because of time pressure, in fact, his king move was 30 minutes and he made that move like in 30 seconds. Ian fought and fought so it ended as a draw. Happens. Let's see how Gukesh is gonna play against Ding. Gonna hope it is gonna be really fair and qualit!
After so many years, Nepo will now have to get reacquainted with the feeling of having to compete to qualify for a candidates tournament.
Looks like his chances are over...
I mean anyways , that qualification rule of WC runnerup is removed from on coming candidates cycle.
@@jazzydriven2784 he is literally one of the strongest player, I think his chances to qualify for candidates are extremely high, same for fabi
@@jazzydriven2784 I would add hikaru to the list too but he hardly plays any classical so that's lowers his chances to qualify, but from pure strength perspective he has still got it
Got a feel for them.... Two warriors
Such a heartbreaking match for the both of them, I can only imagine what it felt like to play knowing the draw throws away both of their chances. Great sportsmanship and respect between them, Ian kept fighting and even felt bad that Fabi couldn't convert under time pressure, and Fabi also knew he let it slip away.
They both played to win. A must-win game is always filled with beginner-like mistakes. They both played professionally and did not wanna compromise. Gukesh is ahead deservedly. The game of chess is the most dignified and chivalrous game thanks to Nepo and Fabi, and all the other players playing in the Candidates 2024. Best tournament
Damn, their body language says it all. They look so bummed, and deflated. Would've been great for either of them to make it, bummer about the tough draw.
Oh no!! Did u do the draws?? Go easy next time
Yes
Preparation prior to an interview - so important, Mrs. Burtasova.
They both fought well, great job Ian and Fabi ❤❤❤
Amazing game, thank you!
10:51 great audience and reporters. Understanding their pain and letting em go❤
It's like mutually agreed destruction, except both sides bombed themselves
Ian felt bad. He didn’t want to draw but he also couldn’t ethically make knowingly bad decisions or just “try for a win” when only a draw is possible. You could see the pain, he didn’t want to once again be known for a decision to make a draw. He actually tried this game. The ways things played out pushed him on this path
They are both champions in my heart, but I am also very happy for Gukesh.
Vishy Anand became a champion for the first time at almost 40 years old, he "pushed the car until it finally started", before and after he plays incredible chess as he does today. So guys, keep your heads up, you're still young, there will be many more opportunities!
Nepo may draw the game earlier but he pushed for win in all ways that helps fabi winning at the end fabi unstable due to time and endsup a draw...fabi resilent nepo a warrior.Its always onside happiness and another side sadness but here both ends with sadness.
Seeing Fabi like that is heartbreaking. He deserved the win more than anyone
Of course, winning is not for chokers😊😊
@@jazzydriven2784 why so rude to people sharing their commiserations? Fabiano had a tournament performance of 3600 in the first 7 rounds of the Sinquefield cup 2014. He has won many, many, many tournaments. He's been 2800 for longer than gukesh has entered the top 100 of chess players. Even if gukesh wins, we have yet to see Ding lose. We will wait for the results of norway chess in may, where ding, along with fabi, magnus, and hikaru, and pragg, play.
@@imnoobplshelpI feel like in candidates mostly the top4-6 people on the table are similar in skills, talent and ability. From there it's a lot more about your mental and physical tenacity and luck. Gukesh showed mettle at 17 that both Fabi and Ian couldn't with their blunders. I am not saying he is better, it's just that there are no ifs and buts. Gukesh win fair and square
@@imnoobplshelp absolutely Fabi is an amazing player and fantastic gentleman.... Never being a world champion or a candidates winner is going to take any of that away 🥰
@@purushottam_paramdharma i feel like ding is very, very glad gukesh won. since he beat him in tata steel 2024, where he absolutely demolished him despite being out of shape. fabi should be good for ding too, since ding has a 6-0 record against him ever since he reached the world top 100. everything will be clear as to if ding can hold it after norway chess in may where he plays magnus, fabi, hikaru, etc.
You guys are top tier entertainment.
Thanks to you both!!
It’s crazy that Nepo was challenging to make his 3rd straight candidate’s tournament victory. That would certainly have been unprecedented
Two legends. Rooted for both
The endgame is really the part of the game where computers shine so far above humans. We look at the evaluation and wonder how these guys could blunder so bad, but in the moment, after several hours of play, with queens on the board and both players with somewhat open kings, the game is just immeasurably complex. Even the game's best are basically swimming in chaos at that point. You can't blame them at all, and that's to say nothing of having the pressure of your entire career on your back.
also thats the last game of a 14 round tournament with so much pressure and stress, its unimaginable
Aren't computers rated like 3800? They're 1000 points stronger than players. It's pretty obvious that the computer would provide the best answer even if the players aren't exhausted, pressured, or stressed.
Insane fight, became fans of both these warriors❤
i both rooted for these men, well played Ian and Fabi
I'm an Indian so obviously I'm happy that gukesh won
But c'mon it was heartbreaking to watch Fabi lose.
I think he deserves to hold the world championship title. He's clearly the second best
Would much rather see Fabi and Gukesh play each other
Winning is not for chokers😅
@@jazzydriven2784scum
Yeah
01:23 nepo soul goes out of his body
Nepo is such a class act ; I’m surprised that people find him arrogant he’s just a normal dude who sometimes can be too frank for some people. Saw his interview with Gotham where he was talking about feeling bad for ding and now he’s trying to make fabi feel better this just shows that he is very empathetic
Bro I have alot of Respect and Love for both the Players , They both Played very very Good
Destiny did a great mockery out of these two gentlemen. Made them fight with each other's throat till the bitter end just to keep them as much alive as to see that they have gained nothing out of it.
lol wtf u good
Yes, very well said
Wow. On point

Keep fighting Caruana! The greatness come to those who can face defeat and use it as a great learning opportunity!!
Seldom seen such decent reporters. Instead of asking nasty or annoying questions like in other sports to get some kind of reaction for headlines, everyone refrains from asking questions because they know that the two of them absolutely don't feel like asking questions at the moment. Thumbs up.
7:40 is genuinely the worst question I’ve heard asked to anyone in a chess press conference (and there’s been a lot of bad ones in the last 4 or 5 years, for some reason especially at recent WCC related event). Look at how Ian reacts when she interrupts them to ask a question relating to Hikaru’s opinion of destiny rather than THE GAME THEY JUST PLAYED, and frequently interrupts them thereafter. No taste, not about the chess, just cheap and unprofessional.
They should've replaced her after day one. Literally zero tact in interviews. But then its FIDE, so of course they kept her.
@@santoshk1983 I mean truthfully, to hire her (contact, agreements, etc.) and then immediately get rid of her would be even more unprofessional, and to be fair I’m certain she tried her best. It’s more on the organizers and/or FIDE for not finding the right folks for the job. I remember during the 2018 World Championship we had Daniel King doing the press conferences and he was fantastic. Even the 2016 World Championship the press conferences were great, and you’d only expect silly questions or lack of perspective from the journalists. It’s frustrating because there must be more out there (like Daniel King, prime example) who are simply better suited for the job. Even Tania Sachdev, who from what I remember of the last 6 years has had some silly questions herself, would’ve likely been better. I think even Levy Rozman would’ve done a better job, and I’m not partial to him! I mean no disrespect to anyone but it’s just so frustrating to listen to and see the game essentially have a mockery made of it, especially at our most prestigious events
With an engine, everyone is a Grand Master
ian you're one of the reasons why i watch chess you make it so much beautiful .. ian fabiano magnus hikaru dubov rapport ding and many others these guys will be the best chess players i have ever watched and IF fabiano hikaru magnus or ian stopped playing chess i will stop watching chess.. everyone of these 4 deserve to be a world champion its just they're in magnus era

Geez have some respect to this 2 gentlemen....
OMG i can feel them during this interview😢
7:00 and at 9:50 You can hear the cheer when Gukesh arrived in the area.
Gukesh wasn't there in that moment, he came back after they left, I was outside, the cheer that you hear is from someone that was making a videocall with someone from India, I didn't know who was but Indians were cheering.
Must be samay raina made the video call with Sagar Shah they uploaded the video on the channel
