I actually find it rude when someone in a losing position doesn't resign. At my junior level it's more acceptable since blunders are very likely, but at a grandmaster level you're just wasting your opponent's time. The polite move, in my opinion, is to accept that you've lost, shake hands, and end the game.
I always like matches between Magnus and members of his prep team, mostly Dubov and Van Foreest, because they know each other so well especially when it comes to opening shenanigans.
@@Peterdecz lol yeah it's obvious to the higher level players but it's still very rare to see these days at such a high level. Maybe I should have ended "This is why we love Dubov"

@@raylopez99 it's an old running gag from the channel. Agadmator covered the tournament and showed the standings many times, both in relation to that and other discussions of involved players, particularly Tal. Consequently, it became a joke for him to show the results as much as possible, even if it wasn't needed. For example, if you watch some of the videos he published after his coverage of the tournament sometimes he'll show the standings even if the video is about a totally unrelated game between two players who didn't even play in the tournament.

Antonio i have a question so please answer me! Every time you say "sorry about that" and you bend over and catch something, what the hell is this thing that falls all the time?😄😄
What was with all the do-si-dos with the night in the bishop on D5? After fighting you get the night to D5 what changed to make it move without obvious provocation and the bishop to take its place? Now I know the night went back because the queen was on E7. I just don't understand why it moved in the first place.
Ok, can someone clear this up please. En passant. Does it only work if a pawn takes a 1st move double jump pawn. Or can any piece take a pawn when it’s 1st move double jumps? Still learning the game.
I think it is difficult to compare players across eras and say that one was definitively greater than another. I consider Carlsen to be one among five players who utterly dominated their generation, along with Morphy, Capablanca, Fischer, and Kasparov.
Morphy to Capablanca: ~60 years Capablanca to Fischer: ~50 years Fischer to Kasparov: ~30 years Kasparov to Carlsen: ~15 years If history is an indicator, we should expect the next great dominant chess player after Carlsen to appear any day now!
Kasparov is the GOAT of Chess ... he won the World Chess Championships (WCC) more times than any other player in the known universe 😀 Carlsen needs to win the WCC two more times to be the GOAT if Chess 🤪
#suggestion please watch tata steel india rapid day 3 press conference and review arjun -nihal game . Insane prep by arjun till move 32 . Vishy called it one of the most beautiful lines he has seen
Agadmator, that swirly action you did for the checkmate at 8:37 was a bit too zany for me to handle. I'm not used to such things. Are you trying to give me a heart attack?
I still don't understand why the black rook on e8 wasn't used to capture the knight on f6. The queen covers the rook and the white bishop is still hanging on c4. Somebody help me here.
10:47 he has won so much more than everyone else but even he hasn't completed the set as the 960 and world cup are missing
ปีที่แล้ว +1
well no one has completed anything, for example no one besides magnus has WC title in this generation , and if we count kasparov anand etc they are missing lots of stuff also you cant count chess960 as its not the same chess, has no rating points. it's like atomic chess, side variation
World Cup is not that much important though it's just one of the qualifiers for candidates, which is the only qualifier for wc. Hence: Standard World championship>> world cup. And as for 960 wc, now that he has given up standard title probably he can now start focusing on gaining a 960 title as well. But given the history of chess, still classical wc> 960 wc, but I am sure even carlsen wants atleast one 960 wc title as well.
@ 960 is a test of adapting to a random position with no opening preparation and so far wesley so, nakamura and nepomniachtchi have performed better than carlsen
@@apoorv219 of course the world championship is bigger than the world cup. But the world cup is still a prize carlsen is yet to win. And 960 is so underrated - adapting to a random position with no opening preparation is tough
Tarjei could ad world no 1 since he was 19 and junior, 2800+ since then, 2882 peak, and mostly 2850+-. So, when people say a new Magnus when new prodigies pop up, they should ask: Can he/she copy that?
In any other era, Ding, Dubov, and the rest of the top 20 would be worshiped as chess visionaries...but with MC, they are mere second fiddle. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but MC is on another level.

Cred to Dubov for giving Magnus mate on the board 👏👏
But he could have played the best defense instead of a mate in one.
Even I allow the same 😢
I'm glad agad dressed up for the occasion of such a professional tournament.
I don't see a tie though🤔

Respect to Dani for lettin him get the mate
Respect to me for always letting my opponent have it

So, En passant is a pawn counter move, and only works as an immediate counter to a pawns 1st move double jump.

I missed the history of this, but what's with the reach-under-the-table accompanied with "Sorry about that"?
I think Kasparov was GOAT in the pre-computer era, and Magnus is the GOAT afterwards. A lot harder to remain #1 in today's global competition, imo
Most impressive was that Magnus was eating his dinner throughout a few of the games.
Ng8 was my first thought but no forced mate. Nice win by MC
Why Kh8 after check and not QXh6? Can someone explain ?
It's a double check from the knight and the bishop on c4 (discover check) so black kings has the only option to move
9:20 "now I'm gonna spoil the result"
Do you think we did not read the quote above the board?
