The dysfunctional camera thing is a deliberate running joke, at this point, right? Please tell me it is. It’s got to be a message we’re trying to send the world, as a community. « This is chess. We have a historic phenomenon; a player who plays better than anyone ever has. It’s 2020, the internet has been around for 30 years. Let’s make sure we never, ever, ever produce a decent stream. *Chess : It’s Not Worth it.* » That would make some sense, at least. In a meta kind of way.
In general all aspects of chess24 except its reputable representatives are subpar. The board looks cheap and feels slow with weird color mismatched arrows. The brand name and logo also seem cheap. The good news is that these things are easily fixed and in doing so chess24 would easily become the most successful digital chess platform due to their connection to Magnus Carlsen.
@@juliusable I will watch wherever Magnus Carlsen is doing banter blitz. Chess 24 is flawed but it is good enough for me as I am a compulsive viewer of these banter blitz sessions. Are you from another platform such as Lichess or Chess.com?
Having watched Magnus many times now playing blitz (thank you chess 24), i believe that one of the most important things he does is "constantly remain in focus" and "actually thinking about the game throughout the whole game". He remains up to the task for the whole game, he does what he is supposed to do. It's not long till distractions hit when i am playing and i believe this happens to a lot of people and in order to improve, it should be corrected.
@@oasistimes You know what brand of mic he has or if it is a cheap one that requires an upgrade? Is it a laptop integrated mic? What other factors effect sound quality? Room echo? Electrostatic Noise? External noise? Computer quality? Software? Internet lag? Are you a sound technician or computer tech? To me, it sounds like he has echo from walls as it's a about a 3 Hz out of phase interference echo IMO but also he had intermittent lag, image break down and sound discontinuity. Are you suffering from the Dunning - Kruger Effect?
Thanks Magnus. It is a real privilege to follow your train of thought and try to improve as an amateur. I think that rarely has a world champ made himself as accessible as this. Much appreciated and enjoyed. All the best from Paul in Cape Town.
" I had this position in a candidates tournament against aronian in 2007" wow Magnus your memory is really something else! I can't remember the chess game I played a few hours ago..
1:10:00 Magnus could have played Nc6xA5 attacking white's queen on b3 so the rook capture would not be possible. Knight could then return to c6 on queen checks to re-defend rook.
The game against Indian prodigy GM Nihal Sarin (Elo 3009) was a must-see type of a game. Starts at 1:38:46. Magnus is brilliant in his natural imperturbability! A true World Champion. And always modest and gentlemanly gracious. Excellent English and rich vocabulary. Such an enjoyable and very instructive show. Thank you, Magnus, for education!
1:10:07 what prevents him from capturing the knight instead of playing rb4? He doesn’t loose the rook, because the queen hangs and if qb5+ the knight goes back to c6. Am I missing something?
That happens when you're only good because of tactics. Against the world champion, you will get crushed more quickly if your positional understanding is deficient.
At 24:17 Carlsen had a Queen pin with the Bishop to B7. His Queen covered the D5 square which is the opponent's only counter to block the pin by the opponent of Knight to D5. Would win the Queen in the resolution.
That Qe2 thing I saw in the 60s in 'The Soviet School of Chess'. I played it a couple of times. Once I had a winnng game and stuffed it. But it is useful as a change against the French. Fischer sometimes played a kind of system like this, sometimes in some of the US Champs.
@@jeffghant4760 first of all, to become number 1 of the world ( which would never happen for me ) and I would share my knowlegde, like Magnus does with Bantzer Blitz and would write books, give lectures etc..Sharing is caring right?
Magnus proves again to be the Greatest Of All Time, improving from 3381, itself super-great, towards the highest ever, which I know to have been at least 3438, and likely higher. The level of instruction here is so edifying that one should listen carefully. Magnus, this is so much the better you than on other website personalities, i.e. Dr, Drunkenstein, that you become immortalized with this Banter, which you rightly connect to the past, such as to Chigorin and to Steinitz. Would it be too much to ask that you also look closer at Lasker, my second favorite to you now, with this Banter Blitz, for the next one? More than the openings though, I expect that you will like the calculation and logic. Be blessed forever, and thank you for representing the West.
Dear Magnus, for frame of reference I'm asking this to get your opinion as both and Elite Grandmaster and one of the greatest individual chess players of all time. When you play online, does it bother you when people in a losing position sit and let the clock run out rather than "going down with the ship" or "fighting to the bitter end?"
Kasparoffs ultimate Rating in Blitz was 1998 as „Raffael“ with 3400 on Chess.com. I recorded his last game. It was a wired pawn-endgame. Absolutely mindblowing!!! After that he excommunicated himself. I think, he was „exsqueezed“ seeing everywhere pink cows 🤪 Now it’s a 3400 revival! But it’s another level... Carlsen makes 3400 with a smile and making jokes simultaneously. „Look the unlucky knight on a8. I am not a welfare company!“ And! He is WITHOUT ANY NERVES!!! Just playing with his Oma...
32:30 Magnus did not want to crush the oponent by bishop d5-f7 check which would lead to queen takes queen? I assume he did not want to demolish the oponent but just to chill.
Saveliy Golubov is an excellent blitz player. www.chessgames.com/perl/chessplayer?pid=139537 This session was highly instructive. The Sveshnikov, Ulvestads, the Pianissimo, the Cochrane gambit, Evans gambit, all played at a very high level.
The opponents need time odds based on their level. Magnus gets 5 minutes but the opponents get extra time. I would rather see the complete game to checkmate rather than a flag.

Evans Gambit by Magnus at 34:30.

After watching Magzy, I always go and play online chess, even though I suck.
Incredible to have this resource. Thank you.
“Reading a book about Chigorin yesterday...”. As one does.

@@Robertl-xz6yl Creating theory by identifying deep thematic ideas is one thing - refuting specific applications of theory is another

1:10:00 Magnus could have played Nc6xA5 attacking white's queen on b3 so the rook capture would not be possible. Knight could then return to c6 on queen checks to re-defend rook.
that doesnt work dumbass, Nc6 x a5 then Qb5+, Ndc6, then king takes rook, and if pawn c6 then queen just takes a5 again
He got his rating up to 3421. That's somewhat impressive.

One of the best session until now. Love you man!
Magnus Carlson: Chess skills = Jedi master. Camera skills= Ja Ja Binks.
We are not in the charity business xD
57:23 Black pushes h6, White queen takes on h6, Black pushes on f6. No checkmate, for the cost of a pawn.
"That loss was by no means a walkover." That's a tall compliment.
I love this series ♥️♥️
Thank you so much Chess24
26:42 We’re In The Empire Business
The big fold at the top of his nose has started to flatten out
1:10:07 what prevents him from capturing the knight instead of playing rb4? He doesn’t loose the rook, because the queen hangs and if qb5+ the knight goes back to c6. Am I missing something?
If Magnus plays a million of these sub 1600 rated games he should lose one even when trying. But I can’t believe it.
dlldll He wont, why shoud he?😅
1800 did better than the 2400
That happens when you're only good because of tactics. Against the world champion, you will get crushed more quickly if your positional understanding is deficient.
New accounts start at 1500. An 1800 player could be a a GM but not registered and incognito having only played about 10 or so games on Chess24.
Great games! Thank you for sharing these!
1:10:03 isn't Nxa5 winning?
Turn on the english subtitle while watching will create more joy....😁😁
Another Evans Gambit by Magnus at 1:38:35.
Great Final!
Full of blunders. Best end you can imagine!!!
Steinitz and Chigorin played the Evans in their match. I think that, in one line the unlikely looking Bd6 is good. Instead of Ba5.
Let's donate a camera and a mic for our homeless champion guys #Help_Magnus
At 24:17 Carlsen had a Queen pin with the Bishop to B7. His Queen covered the D5 square which is the opponent's only counter to block the pin by the opponent of Knight to D5. Would win the Queen in the resolution.
mattoversea d5. Magnus knows best.
At 1:10:03 doesn't nxa5 simply win the knight (Qb5+, Nac6 protects everything)

10:57 magnus can win a piece here by removing the knight on e5 that guards the other knight but he misses it :(
Diego Santin he didn’t miss anything. the queen will take back and then take the undefended knight on d4 and if rook d1, queen takes bishop on c4
+1 for his excellent commentary.
