I'm watching this in 2023, after finding this out in some comments of fabis interview, where he mentions that kramnik's interviews are bs. Damn this is gold 😂
For those wondering: Eval after white is "much better" with a "serious advantage for white" at 0:29 : +0.6 Eval after the first analysis at 0:55 : +.1 Eval after second analysis at 1:10 : 0.0 Eval after the "not so bad" position at 2:27 : -2.0 Eval after Kramnik is doing "quite well" at 3:11 : +0.3 Eval after Ding says black is better 4:11 : -1.6 Eval after Ding corrects Kramnik with Nxf2 4:23 : -3.7 Eval after Kramnik's very strong position at 4:36 : 0.0 Eval after "white can only be better" (with many easily drawing moves where black can only press, Ding correctly laughs) 4:58 : 0.0 Eval after an "easy technical win for white" 5:55 : 0.0 Eval after "Nf5 is winning, of course" 6:02 : 0.0 Eval after b4 7:08 : -2.0 Eval after "white is winning, no doubt" 7:26 : -3.4 Hilarious stuff, if I had all day I'd continue. Nearly all of what Kramnik said was wrong and nearly all of what Ding said was correct.
What I get from this is that Ding is (maybe was, sadly) an absolute legend, great genius of this game but it seems that Kramnik's overenthusiastic evaluations don't affect his results this badly. He went 6.5/14 (while Ding went 7.5/14) in this candidates tournament. One could consider it as a poor result until you consider the fact that it was an extremely strong candidates tournament, with an average rating of 2786. So going -1 against such a field isn't that bad
kramnik´s position evaluating: +0,3: white is completely winning 0.00: white clearly better -1.00: only white can play for a win -2.00: position is unclear, but of course white has chances...
+0.30: Kramnik wins the candidates 0.00 : opponent resings -1.00: white is clearly winning -2.00: white is much better -12.00: position is about equal but only white can play for a win more like this
Another game in which Kramnik is "so winning", "completely winning", "clearly winning", "it would be just stupid not to win (this position)", "so much better", he's "the only one playing for a win", has "a big advantage", while his opponent "has absolutely no chance, not even counterplay", he "had a very simple win", he is "so solid he cannot loose in anyway", "no doubt"... I mean, only a heart attack would prevent him from winning this game! Yet, he still manages not to convert in victory.
It's also amazing how he goes from “its just completely winning” to “okay, uh, maybe it's a draw but there's some winning chances and its imbalenced” once Ding gives a very logical move.
I heard somewhere that in worse positions, you have to be a little bit optimistic about your position to the point of delusion, since if you don’t want to play your position, you might as well just lose kramnik is taking this advice a bit too seriously
The press conference reportoire of Vladimir K. - already clearly better - clear advantage - his position is already awful - should be clearly winning - somehow by miracle didn't find a winning line - play just this and basically resigns - i have mating ideas - white/black (kramniks colour) is the only one playing for a win - i'm sure this is already big advantage - just no chance for white/black(opponent colour) - should be already won - (opponent says something) - yeah but x,x,x and this is just nothing
Not true. Svidler would but he quietly withdraws to Kramnik's analysis... too much respect (Anand-Svidler conferences in 2014, 2016 stand out to me). The really outrageous thing is that we don't have the Kasparov conferences from the 90s to properly judge players today... all they recorded were his games.
I think I agree, Kramnik's confidence is bordering on arrogance and claiming he is completely winning in a drawn position is getting ridiculous and disrespectful to his opponents. Ding is very humble, that's good.
I remember watching this interview years ago and thought how nice it must be to never ever be wrong. Now with the recent events, it has aged like fine wine.
Ding doesn't suffer fools gladly! I was waiting for him to say something as his body language and his tone was just like "are you serious?" and he didn't dissapoint. Legit G.
03:50 Kramnik "White is clearly better, Im completely winning blablabla ... " Anastasia "Are you agree about the evaluation ?" Ding : "No." ha ha ha ! (same at 08:30)
dec So what? How does my fide rating makes a difference about the fact of kramnik being arrogant? Do I have to be 2700+ in order to express what I think about a chess player? Anyone can share his opinion kid, and of course I am trash compared to kramnik and to all these these super gm's, but that doesn't change the fact that kramnik is being absolutely arrogant in the press conference, denying to admit that he was outplayed by Mamedyarov and by Ding in some points of the game. It is part of being proffesional to admit your mistakes and kramnik doesn't do it, at least in this tournament so far.
Kramnik should be careful not to get ridiculous in his analysis. he sees himself always winning. and the way he states how good his positions always are can be seen as very arrogant. that being said - ding played a great match and the only one who maybe was having an adv in this game was him
Kramnik: This is just a terrible position for black. Ding: Gives five more moves, showing why it's not, helping Kramnik with an intermezzo and final retreating move that he didn't consider along the way. Kramnik: Okay, maybe it's not SO bad, but... Kramnik, 5 years later: Everyone who plays better than me must be cheating.
Kramnik's press conference: 'I was clearly winning". Score: Lose or draw Congratulations to Ding Liren for making him swallow some variations, and show him that he sometimes says bullshit even if he gives the impression of always having seen everything.
he didnt say he was winning and the variation is good for white lol. I bet you are a under 2000 fide player who doesnt have a clue what he is talking about
dec Kramnik: "white is clearly playing for a win here, black cannot win absolutely no chance only white can win. actually I thought I was completely winning" *everyone laughs at him*
Now looking back on this, it was just a hint of things to come. He is completely winning, everyone is cheating. He has the facts. Whenever someone disagrees, he just moves on. Shades of reality.
I want to see this confident, mentally strong and stable, yet patient and humble Ding back. This is prime Ding. I also remember how Kramnik was overconfident in Norway chess 2017 analyzing the game with Aronian. He was still winning not losing in his all analysis 😅
I agree, it sucks he lost two because i think he had the best chance against Carlsen... but this was fucking hilarious. Actually the last one was even better when he said 'no but this move solves things', opponent suggests a move, 'ah yes, i saw this' changes the position, rinse repeat about 10 times (honest).
Yes I agree, he is a bit arrogant for past two rounds. I am not defending him in any way, I just commended his attitude to fight till the last second and not take the easy route.
I am a relatively poor player and obviously cannot analyse at this level but according to the engine, only black was ever better in this game. In this context, Kramnik's commentary in the press conference plainly seem compete nonesense.
If you exchange Vladi's "It's a little strange" comments by '"I am actually not sure, whether I am better here", we might get a slightly more objective analysis ...
Kramnik : I am clearly better , black has no chance here , white is just winning , already very happy with such a strong position , black has no play at all , white is so better , so winning , just completely over , black absolutely no counterplay , this position also so winning , it is so obvious , black plays this and clearly white winning here too . ...and white so solid , never losing , always better position for me , and there is big problem for black , and a I draw whenever I want , black had no chance in this game , white never at risk , I miss one little move and somehow black gets draw but clearly white better throughout this game , blah , blah , blah ........
Ding was better throughout....taking on e4 with the pawn was the drawing mistake by ding. Kramnik is so subjective in analyzing his own games. Bad Analysis.
It was actually pretty good game from both sides, even if not the most memorable. There were no clear blunders, except for matine's move 27... Bd7, but it's hard for a human player to calculate that move, so I don't think it's necessarily qualifies as a blunder. Kramnik could have played 32. Rc3 instead of Ne3, but it's still drawish, though Rc3 led to lines where black had plenty of room for making a blunder while after Ne3 black has easier time playing the position.
Kramnik rewriting the game and pretending he was better all the time. Yeah, sure. Instead of this pathetic excuse of a player, MVL should have been given the wild card.
wow, just wow, I had heard before magnus statements but this is just ridiculous, is just him and his same delusion, poor guy, but how can anyone take him seriously, since when he has this takes, di he became wc aided by his delussion or despite it?

This goes to show how much you can get away with when you know something and people don't. Mr. Kramnik grew up without engines and is bs away. For me is a trait of a bad person. But that's just me. The guy can be awesome.
It's not so uncommon that chess players disagree about the position, even at the highest level. I trust Kramnik's analysis more, he's a phenomenal player, but I guess he was frustrated, and doesn't analyse with his normal accuracy in the press conference.
I haven't seen anybody as hard a player as Kramnik. He never loses his spirit. In candidates, of wjich this interview is, he was the oy player who was not playing for draws. He would play for hours to have some result. He is an absolute legend.
