I agree with Joe. Rivalry is not really the right word. Magnus always respected Anand, but he also knew he was going to be his successor, and more, because even then he knew he would dominate for at least ten years. A rivalry is more between equals, Anand had his prime before Magnus had matured. When he did, it was pretty much clear to all how things would go.
Human confirmed.... excellent way to address. It's always pulsating to see these legends play. As usual your analysis are excellent thank you for the video
Thanks agadmator. You reinvigorated my interest in chess. Im now 35 and hadnt played since i was 5. Ive learnt a lot but i see you miss a lot too... i can't in good faith watch anymore. Good luck and thank you
I love this version of magnus,his early stages,he has his hair loose everywhere,middle stages he has combed but without any beard and now this?!n o i c e
i just love those, "try to imagine what you would do," parts! Also, can you imagine how fried your brain would be after playing chess as much as these pros; competitor, after competitor, after competitor? I play about 5 small sets of games a month and I'm reeling after each bout.
I don't understand the king move. It did not do absolutely anything, it was like passing without making a move, it would have the same effect. Please explain 13:00. Wouldn't for example bishop to h2 do exactly the same?
Hello everyone ! I don't understand why the line with the king move is so good for carlsen (at 13.20), because the move doesn t change anything for the bishups later...
Can you please tell us about the time controls at the beginning of the match? This really helps put things in context. If they're making brilliant moves in blitz that's different than a super long game or whatever. It just helps provide meaningful information about what's happening.

around 13:13 can someone explain why they leave so many pawns hanging but they don't go for it. black can take with the knight the b5 pawn and Carlson can take the queen then the pawn it is guarding with the bishop. they seem to treat those pawns like nothing I don't get it.
check if the video has a strange video format. maybe there are some driver/codec issues with this particular format. you could also update your vlc and or graphics driver if this error comes up more frequently.
Well, can't see that in comments, so let me ask: how does Kf1 force black to exchange queens? Would the move just be any silent move wasting a tempo and the will to exchange? Kh1, Kh2 or even Bf3 are not the winning moves but Kf1 is? What is the idea in this specific f1?
Hey agadmator, I and many others are beginners or atleast not at an over 1300 level. If your goal is to make chess big I think if you spent some time teaching principles of chess. Sometimes I just don't understand why a player makes a move. I would love to see you teach it, since you are an excellent explainer and likable
The idea that is mentioned at 13:00, why do we needto move the king fron G1 to F1, the whole sequence would still be possible if you make any different move...can someone explain why exactly is king being moved
0:00 -- Carlsen has grown up into a downright handsome bastard with movie star charisma. 10:36 -- A move is shaved off if the queen just goes to a1. 10:42 -- Carlsen should have just moved Nb5 right away instead of Qd1 here. Why? Because it takes Anand longer to threaten the knight at any given location than it does for Carlsen to move it, thereby gaining relative tempo. (Carlsen is up half a point before Qd1, but nearly dead even afterwards.) 10:50 -- Why Anand doesn't go Na5 here is puzzling. Sure: Carlsen's knight is a nuisance -- but that's all it is. He should just ignore it if he otherwise has everything defended. Na5 threatens the pawn, and lures the light-square bishop off g4 (where it is currently pinning Anand's other knight) to defend it. The engine favors White again after Ncd8. 11:04 -- Stockfish10 has to crunch all the way to depth 31 before it likes Kg1 better than anything else. 11:10 -- Even though it undoubles Carlsen's pawns, exchanging his crammed-in bishop for the Carlsen's powerful knight on b5 is actually Anand's best move here. In a cramped game like this, knights are better than bishops (as Carlsen's knight is currently proving). Nc7 (played) is a blunder, and the engine rates White quite favorably after Bf2. 12:55 -- Any king move (aside from Kf2) would have worked (and Kg2, not Kf1, is the best). 13:07 -- The queen trade is not forced after Kf1; instead, Black could shove c4, and leave it to White to trade queens. Sequence of play (after Kf1) is c4, Qxd6+, Nxd6, Bxe5, Nxe4, Bf4, Nc5, and Black is doing about as well as can be expected in a NN-vs-BB endgame where the enemy bishops have a little more breathing room but no immediately clear advantage with eight pawns still congesting the board. 13:25 -- Nc7 isn't forced. Na7 is much better, and the knight subsequently maneuvers to c6 and then d8 to protect the f7 pawn. White is +1.5 or so after Na7, but up +3 if Nc7.
What goes wrong if, on move 56, Carlsen takes queen d6 instead of going e2? Force the knight to take back, eventually take e5 and push for advantage on the king side?
But, in the variant after 56.Kf1 (instead of 56.Qe2, played by Carlsen) ...Qxd1 57.Bxd1 Nxb5 58.Bxe5+ Kc8 59.Bxe2, Black would NOT play 59...Nc7, which allows a winning exchange Knight/Bishop on this case, but rather 59..Na7, could White technically still force the win in this endgame of 2B vs 2N.?...
Maybe it was important to NOT move the Q to get to the engine line, but what is the significance of placing the K on f1?? Wouldn't ANY king move do as this zwischenzug... Also not sure why exchanging queens is "forced".
@12:59 king from g1 to h1 .. in the explanation following, what was the significance of this. king did not influence the play nor was g1 square used by another piece... What am i missing?
"Every chess master was once a beginner", but Carlsen and Anand were beginners when they were 5 or 6 years old.
Exactly! which makes the whole quote redundant
That's sad, because I'm 15 and I am just starting.

Except that he takes a new shirt out of it's packet and wears it without ironing. LOL it's de rigeur for an eccentric genius
It's an Indian thing, you know...
Vishy has the most beautiful style of chess. Carlsen the most incisive. Kramnik the scariest.
I guess these days, Carlsen, Caruana and now Vishy have started practicing with engines..
Love you Anto.. Love from India..
Yeah, it's obvious and sad. And ugly, so ugly...

Amazing analysis as always. I am sure people must tell you that time flies while listening to your videos.

Becoming a Norwegian viking legend
That's true

More like square faced Justin Bieber
I was waiting for this!!!! Thank you so much. Much anticipated battle
Carlsen couldn't see: Human confirmed

Nice video Agadmator ! Can you also explain more about the king moves so that beginners also understand why that was done? Thanks in advance.
Anand soaking up pressure was quite impressive. Patient
Hello everyone ! I don't understand why the line with the king move is so good for carlsen (at 13.20), because the move doesn t change anything for the bishups later...

Enjoy the footage, you should do it more often, I follow you channel and this is the first time I’ve seen this . Good job by way .

Anand moves are outstanding. He calculates steps prior to the situation.
Bro addicted to ur channel. Love from 🇮🇳
at 6:51 when black moves Rook to h8 why cant white grab the free pawn left undefended? is it only to keep control of the h file?
0:00 -- Carlsen has grown up into a downright handsome bastard with movie star charisma.
10:36 -- A move is shaved off if the queen just goes to a1.
10:42 -- Carlsen should have just moved Nb5 right away instead of Qd1 here. Why? Because it takes Anand longer to threaten the knight at any given location than it does for Carlsen to move it, thereby gaining relative tempo. (Carlsen is up half a point before Qd1, but nearly dead even afterwards.)

It was in this position the white walkers resigned the game as hot pie to winterfell is coming.

Its the law
What goes wrong if, on move 56, Carlsen takes queen d6 instead of going e2? Force the knight to take back, eventually take e5 and push for advantage on the king side?
That's our world champion
Winning dead drawn position
Drawing totally winning position
closed same material position =/= winning position
@M I have no idea how da f you'd find that move anyways I was baffled how the hell that was the winning move of all things.
Totally winning position? You are out of your mind if you have one.
Positionally, this game was amazing.
one of the two greats in today's chess tournament
"With zero point but exquisite games and a deadly stare, he is Vincent the star of the show" lol
In the alternative scenario. Why not Kd8 instead NxB5. That move could centre the king for a nice endgame
Carlsen is just the best, really enjoyable to play, somehow original and these days looking so fresh :) Anand is brilliant player as well :)
13:10 how about c4? protecting the pawn on b5
Maybe because after black king moves from b8, at some point Nd6 will fork c4 & e4?
Can anybody tell me what happens at 2:31 when Carlsen gives check to the black king? He doesn't remove the check, then how does the game goes ahead?
But, in the variant after 56.Kf1 (instead of 56.Qe2, played by Carlsen) ...Qxd1 57.Bxd1 Nxb5 58.Bxe5+ Kc8 59.Bxe2, Black would NOT play 59...Nc7, which allows a winning exchange Knight/Bishop on this case, but rather 59..Na7, could White technically still force the win in this endgame of 2B vs 2N.?...
What's the point of Kf1 on 12:56? Or is it just wasting a move?
Maybe it was important to NOT move the Q to get to the engine line, but what is the significance of placing the K on f1?? Wouldn't ANY king move do as this zwischenzug... Also not sure why exchanging queens is "forced".
Watching Magnus and Anand is always glorious
What an intense Game. Too good !!!!
Very well played by both and the tiger showed his claws and defended successfully!

Bro what about Manipuri chess scene ,are they also interested in chess?
would u plz analyze anand vs karpov 1998 world championship
10:33 why not instantly Qa1 and then Qa6 so that the plan can be executed in only 3 moves? Why Qd1 first?
Because he has to protect the knight in d7
Do you have any footage of the beer? I'd enjoy that more.

At 13:36 instead of Kd8 if black plays Nd8 would white still be winning ?
can someone explain why is the move with king nescecery? it doesnt look like it has something to do with the next moves
At 13:35, Black can easily play Nd8 instead of Kd8. I don't see how White can win from here. I am afraid I dont see why Kf1 is such a good move.
Andy Ang yea I was wondering the same. With the knight on d8 you get double protection of the e6 square.
