I don't see the reason why gukesh is so underrated. Even in newspaper( TOI) the headline was Praggnanandhaa forces Firouzja to split points in big bold letters whereas gukesh was mentioned later. In my opinion Gukesh deserves as much or even more praise than pragg. PS I have been rooting for Gukesh since Norway Chess 2023
@@harshrajjadhav940 At top level it's actually gukesh who has played more top events... But yes pragg's game against magnus did catch a lot of eyeballs
Just a matter of time period. Pragg has been famous since his childhood. Gukesh is a relatively late bloomer. Ofcourse he is just 17. But everyone remembers seeing Prag as that genius 12 year old child.
I offered prayers for Gukesh to win before the beginning of the Candidates tournament...I wish he wins the tournament and probably I will be the happiest fan ❤
0:29 "Gukesh has arrived early" I know Sagar meant "arrived to the board", but quite an interesting double meaning there. At just 18 years old and challenging for the World Championship, Gukesh certainly has ARRIVED early!
Gukesh and his team have researched all Pragg games extremely thorough and always Guki has the best answer to all Pragg nuances... Pragg has to do some special preps to beat Guki...
Gukesh ❤ is more of an instinctive, ON THE BOARD innovative player while Pragg. is a well tutored player. Unfortunate that even when Gukesh beats Pragg. people condemn him with faint praise!
@@IndiaTides We tend to forget that GUKESH is just a 17 year old kid! As you say his composure will improve with age. Wish him - and all the Indian players- the very best👍✨
Pragg should have came dancing to the room.. When he dance,he dominates and gukesh showed why is indians no 1 currently.. What i feel is hikaru and pragg both came to the tournament to play out of theory games
Prag's deep preparation was resisted and outlasted by Gukesh's deep calculation. It was a match that would go into chess folklore. Prag will do well in the remaining matches of candidates. I am worried about Vaishali. I am afraid she will end up at the bottom of Women's Candidates event.
Vaishali's time management is truly terrible, she always end up in time trouble while her opponents have all the time in the world. She ends up making a blunder in an equal position in time trouble and lose. She needs to win today with white against Salimova to stand any chance
11:50 Gukesh was about to kill that black guy for continiously moving his head and pretending that he is chill exactly covering on the top of the board the whole game.
I'm new to this can someone please explain where they keep going between the moves? are they using the toilet? are they not allowed to see each other's moves?
They mostly go around watching other games. If you are fighting an uphill battle, you stay in your seat. This has been my personal experience playing chess. I do not think they go to the toilet and they bring refreshments like orange juice with them.
I am new to chess. Can anyone explain to me why in the last Pragg couldn't move his queen to d8 to give checkmate? Is that not allowed for queen to move diagonally to end of other side , is there any rule I am not aware of ?
If this happens,black simply play his rook to f8 preventing check and it's a discovered attack to white queen and then also white will be in check and white queen cannot be moved...so ultimate white will loose his queen and loose the game...!!!!
Please sugar what is the reason pragg he can beat all strong gm as abdusatrov hikaru vidit but he can’t beat gukesh i suppose gukesh understood his techniques am i right if you believe like me put like in this comment also you can suggest what you believe reply
also because pragg whent into gukesh's strong zone, gukesh is very very good in on spot calculation, logic and solving for from complex position but is very less experienced compared to pragg
@@MJ-qr5xw I learned this from northern guys mainly from punjabis , delhi and mumbai sports guys always hype their states and cities. Never mention india at all.
@@chinninaveen000Doesn't mean you should adopt that. Moreover Gukesh is Tamilan with Telugu Parents. Stop attaching states first its north south after that telugu tamil😐
@@rjesh2062 what did I do wrong? I just said his origin that's it....i learned it from proud northern athletes, You come up with all that tamil telugu stuff ..
4:58 how come Pragg can Castle?? Because of his king got checked with black bishop at 4:02 According to the chess rules king can't castle if he got checked with opponent piece Can any one explain!!
There can be several reasons. They may want to use the restroom or just stretch. Players are allowed to leave their seats but need to stay within the building.
@@Mrsaysaw The time keeps ticking but the players can be at the board or elsewhere. They only need to be at the board to make their move. So say Gukesh's clock is at 11:00 minutes and his opponent's clock is ticking. It means his opponent needs to make a move. Gukesh goes for a walk and his opponent makes a move and hits the clock. Gukesh's time starts counting down from 11:00. Gukesh is back at the table after walking for 2 minutes so his clock is at 9:00 now. He thinks and makes a move. Remember, these guys are GMs. They don't need to look at the board to analyze it. The position is in their head so even in his "walk", he's actually analyzing the position and thinking about what his opponent can play and what he can play etc.
I've lost faith in Praggs ability to win, After all these years, his time management is still poor, which makes him lose so many games. With his solid style, his journey to win this years candidates is almost over until some miracle happens. He now probably need to win at least four or five games. Nijat will lose to Fabi twice most likely, So 9 .5 will be winners score.
I don't understand why people being like Gukesh is not treated fairly and all.Dude shut up, they both are equally loved, respected and awesome. Stop comparing and shits All the best for next matchs pragg and gukesh❤️✨👍🏼
So there will be less possibility that the candidates from the same country will be challenging for the final spot, much more entertaining & elements of drama 🎭

wow well played both, good fight by both . Super Gukesh, good defense
1:30 so it is BANANA🍌here...
it was RED JUICE 🍷in Vidit vs Hikaru game ... Keep going SAGAR 😆
at 13:42, instead of queen g5, imagine if pawn e7 was played, the probabilities which come out are wonderful ?
Pragg’s head-to-head score with Gukesh is puzzling - he seems to make more mistakes with Gukesh than others.. hope that trend ends soon
Yeah that's weird gukesh is praggs kryptonite 😂
The math equation a>b>c works different in chess analogy. Gukesh > pragg > sarin > erigaisi > vidit > gukesh. It's a chain cycle on h2h.

Well done Gukesh. Pragg also played well. Gukesh played very cool.
In Prague it was pragg that was winning.
~ Sagar Shah 2024
I see you 😅
my two favorite players.
Gukesh and his team have researched all Pragg games extremely thorough and always Guki has the best answer to all Pragg nuances... Pragg has to do some special preps to beat Guki...
Special prep made him lose by sacing 2 pawns
Just before pragg resigned.. How about queen d8 giving a check... Any kind of perpetual possible?
Gukesh ❤ is more of an instinctive, ON THE BOARD innovative player while Pragg. is a well tutored player.
Unfortunate that even when Gukesh beats Pragg. people condemn him with faint praise!
So truly articulated
I think Arjun and Gukesh are better players. They don't have nerves for the big games. It will improve. Gukesh's ambition is too serious.

Balancing the pressure of contest as well as the camera focus both are so difficult...well adjusted to everything 👍🏽

Woow Oh my God, Gukesh nice defence, Sagar shah excellent commentary, much thanks.
Pragg always gives a dead fish when he shakes hands. Someone needs to teach him.
What if the cameramen accidentally drop the camera and mess up the board?
😂😂😂😂😂
Camera is far away from the board
Intrusive thoughts be like:
Pragg looks like he is 15 year old but gukesh meanwhile looks like he in his 20s
Hope to see Gukesh against Pragg play world chess championship someday
15:13 I think pragg should play Ne7😅😅
Ne3 was perfect move
Prag's deep preparation was resisted and outlasted by Gukesh's deep calculation. It was a match that would go into chess folklore.
Prag will do well in the remaining matches of candidates. I am worried about Vaishali. I am afraid she will end up at the bottom of Women's Candidates event.

Why one player is going somewhere every time..
Do they need to play another game simultaneously??
Or just taking break ??
Gukesh very safe moved 😊

Yeah!!
11:45 where pragg over thinked , but still Indian won the game 😅😅😅😅

Pragg lost because of going for the win. He miscalculated his chances.
also because pragg whent into gukesh's strong zone, gukesh is very very good in on spot calculation, logic and solving for from complex position but is very less experienced compared to pragg
At 9:42 , after BishopC8 can't gukesh take the knight as pragg cannot recapture it as it is pinned??
No. If Gukesh captures the knight, then pawn takes would come with a check.

Pragg to lose today from vidit, pragg will get many chances in future but vd may not
Is it sagar who commentating😅
Why Gukesh did not take R×f7 when pragg's queen was pinned by gukesh's Bishop
because PxF7 is check and White can protect it's queen.
If you took the night i could take the pawn then your king would be check that’s why he couldn’t take it
