    Out of all of them he actually takes the time to smell the flowers. A man who's enjoying life and loves living in the moment. Classic Ivanchuk. Would love to play this man a game of chess. Would be a dream come true. I'd lose in about 45 seconds but still, lol.

    There is only one Chucky - crazy, brilliant, temperamental, and unabashedly passionate about chess and life. Unlike most top GMs he doesn't appear to give a damn about his rating and will play anyone, anywhere, anytime. On his bad days, he'll crash and burn spectacularly, but on on his best days, he will crush any player alive. This was one of his best days! Congrats to GM Vasil Ivanchuk, the new World Rapid Champion!!

Derin bir nefes alırken yine çiçeğini koklamaya başlıyor. 2:52

      Basic knowledge. You'll find it back in the ancient philosophy, when they discuss the difference between a human and an animal. Or between a human and a barbar. And in the eastern philosophy too. F.e. such a behaviour at a Go-World-Championship is unthinkable.

      Not possible. Because it's not "my" theory. It's basic knowledge. It's better you and Magnus start to thought about the importance of good behaviour in a competition. It's important for the society or in case of Magnus for the image of chess.

    They are playing draughts, also called international checkers, though on an 8x8 board instead of the usual 10x10. The flying king at the end makes it clear. Ivanchuk has been known to play in official draught tournaments, I would assume he is quite good at it. I've played it, but being used to traditional checkers, I have found international checkers quite difficult.
