As far as he's concerned. Winning one match is all that's needed. Having fantastic Draws for the rest of the match would be a good fight, and create interesting games. He won the tournament in the first Win. The other wins were needless (given how they played out) and only make Nepo look bad tbh.
This is just the proof that sometimes, even the best make mistakes... to err is human :) It's just a shame that Nepo collapsed like that after the marathon game 6...guess that one was too much for him and pushed him overboard (even Magnus said he was too tired as well to fully calculate after the following games, which says something)... :(
Game 6 just tore up the accumulating tension. Ian often got better positions, but since he did not make sharpening moves, all his advantage was quickly reduced to a draw and even he himself had to defend. In game 6, sharpening and breaking the structure of pawns, exchanging rooks for a queen ended in defeat, after that he simply lost his style, did not understand how he should to play, began to change smth and just started blundering.
Honestly at first, I was always saying that Carlsen will destroy Nepo and that's it, but now that it happens, a part of me is like "satisfied" with tha fact that it was true, but I also feel really bad for Ian, so much pressure and tension, it just wasn't his day, I'm really concerned abt what he's feeling right now..
Game 6 crushed him mindstate, too bad because before his game 8 blunder, he is performing better than I expected. But 2 amateurish blunders in a row, thats unbelievably bad.
This came up in my suggestions and I was confused about the board position and then I realized it was from a year ago and just a different massive blunder by Nepo
Far behind ? Carlsen was leading 5-3 at the moment and needed 2,5 points to win the title .Kasparov was 5-0 behind in 1984 and came back to 5-3 before match was canceled by FIDE president Campomanes. He needed 6 wins to win overall and started his desperate effort from zero ! Korchnoi was 5-2 behind in 1978 against Karpov and came back to 5-5 during 4 games ( 3 wins and 1 draw ) He needed 4 wins to win the title .They did not win respective matches , but they did not throw towel in either. But of course both were fighters. Nepo just gave up fighting after loss in 6th game.
That was a noob mistake. Again, Ian can beat me with his eyes closed. Im not saying that to hate on him, it just shows that the loss of the 8 hour game really messed him up 🤦🏻♂️ I feel bad for him, cuz on the first matches he was doing really good, but after the 6th one it just went downhill 😕
That 6th game was so long that it became the longest in both time spent and number of moves played in the history of the WC (7hrs 45 mns, 136 moves) -the previous holder was game 5 of the 1978 WC Karpov vs Korchnoi, which had lasted 126 moves and had to be adjourned twice, all of that for...a stalemate. ^^ It's incredibly tiring to calculate and think during a whole game like that, even if it doesn't look like so...Maybe that day it was just too much for Nepo... :(
@@lucasng4712 That's missing Omar's point. Black could have played c6 sooner but one reason it's potent in response to c5 is that you can no longer defend the bishop with Nc5; i.e., on top of being trapped it can't be defended. White can actually play Nc5 immediately after black plays Ra4 because even if he then takes the pawn, you can force a rook trade with Rc3 for an even position.
0:24 He realized immediately and then double checked to see if he missed something. Amazing how much information you can get just by paying attention to them.
The only reason why Hikaru wasn't angry like all the other super GMs is because he's not currently playing classical. He didn't have his chance at a WC invitation yoinked by Nepo like all the other supers. I doubt he would have been as angry but he would have definitely been very very unhappy
Ian is a nice enough guy, but his play during the second half of the championship was simply really really bad. If he had been in time troubles, if he had calculated inaccurately in complicated positions - all fine. But he basically threw away games by not even bothering to spend time on calculation.
@@yunikage He was mostly angry with himself as he should be. A GM who is not upset with himself after making such an elementary blunder has no right to call himself a GM
World Champion Magnus Carlsen is scowling, knowing his friend, and a great player, GM Nepo has just blundered. A person with humility, not having pride, does not mock or laugh at the other person's mistake.
Hikaru instantly changing his face from laughing to surprise. _"wow blunder"_ me as 1200 rated player pause the vid and try to find in 10minutes : _"where tf the blunder was"_
Well, not before black has retreated their knight. I think the reason c5 is uniquely bad though is that it blocks white’s own knight from coming into c5 and defending the bishop in some lines (also creating escape square on a6)
Of course I don't doubt that Hikaru and Giri would have seen c6 on the board as a response but I find it kind of ridiculous to comment with the eval bar that is telling you what to do and then to be so critical of the players' moves. Even both Carlsen and Anand both missed that famous Nxe5 in game 6 in 2013
If you watched that Anish clip, he literally saw that a minute before the move is played and said “you are not worried about you bishop being trapped?”
I really don’t understand, how can Nepo made such an obvious blunder, even for ordinary people who play chess, or just an enthusiast viewer like myself, it is obvious, does not need a national master to analyze it, that the bishop was dead right after his c5 move and black answered it with c6
What you actually do not understand is that mistakes after long time of concentration and stress can happen, even in top tier. I would like to see you after hours and hours. It is easy to judge from the home seat, get into the war by yourself and than lets talk.
@@whatthehirsch7385 I do understand, and yes that is true, if we are talking only about chess, I will be wiped out anytime by those guys in seconds for sure because I am not a chess player, only a spectator. But what I mean is that, Nepo is a World Class chess player and, so the resilient endurance and concentration have to be intact all the time during the championship match. I do hope to watch exciting world final game of chess, because in terms of quality, experience etc, they are at the same level. Blunders did happened all the time but blunder like that must be disappointing for many people including myself
@@hendarinfb Ian was mentally (and physically) exhausted, that's it. Game 6 was played for over 8 hours, that's extraordinary even with top players, so I don't blame him.
@@whitelion204 I agree, I don’t blame him either, that’s the factors that separates champions and the rest. I don’t blame him either but still disappointed
I don't watch chess usually but I heard about this blunder and was curious to see reactions and wow. I haven't seen one likable person reacting to this. All these guys seem so arrogant and pretentious. Is everyone who is into chess like this?
Maybe is you knew the personality, knew the game better, etc, you wouldn't see it as such. But I understand how it can seem that way. I mean if a basketball player made a layup on the opponents basket, people are going to react in a particular way.

We look at Ian, we feel bad. But when we look at magnus, we laugh
the continuation of magnus' reaction is even better

Lol. Magnus was freaking bored, playing with a 2200 (as per Fabiano)
I'd be bored getting only 1.2 million euros too.
@@xplicitmike Until the marathon game, it was the most accurate match in history. I think Nepo was playing great and then just hit the wall. Stamina.

Well there's always next time.

I think he must have completely exhausted himself, nothing left in the tank.
Nepo's infamous blunder turns the bishop into a trapped soul behind enemy lines.
For those who don't get the blunder
Pawn to c5 prevention the knight to go to c5 square and protect the white bishop.
Who doesnt??? I am a 1200 and i spotted it immediately!

hikaru is happy that magnus did not lose somebody else.
The fact we had tons of blunders like this in this years championship just shows how crazy it was.

Hikaru looks like he as a little schadenfreude : )
Nevertheless Ian got a lot of fans during this championship. His attitude was great even after such painful losses.
He did? I've predominantly seen people ripping on him
Ian is a nice enough guy, but his play during the second half of the championship was simply really really bad. If he had been in time troubles, if he had calculated inaccurately in complicated positions - all fine. But he basically threw away games by not even bothering to spend time on calculation.
And then he lost all of them for acting like an angry baby.

1:25 watch it 5 times atleast
Hikaru is like a child lol😂
With so much money on the line with chess now, it’s hard to know if these games are being thrown.
Wouldn’t c6 by Magnus trap the bishop REGARDLESS of Ian moving his pawn? Or is the thought here that he should have retreated the bishop away?
No because he’d still have the c5 square for his knight to protect it
i hope he becomes the world champion, he deserve it
Hikaru's laugh always make me smiling 🤣
Yeah i can imagine hikaru will also be disgust if he's in his peak like 2013 but now he's retired he's just chilling
People asked me who to bet on, and I said duh, Magnus. Hopefully someone put down some cash lol.
I wish this duo could cover this year's WCC on his channel 😢
Not like Bobby Fischer never blundered a bishop before....of course he did go on to win the title, but still, even the best blunder.
As bad as it was, was still nothing compared with this year's (2023) mother of all blunders
Wauw, thats a very good one in the description. In that case I wonder whether he really abstained from wine or fermented drink before the match.
I dont fully get it, after f3 wouldn’t …c6 happen anyway?
Well, not before black has retreated their knight. I think the reason c5 is uniquely bad though is that it blocks white’s own knight from coming into c5 and defending the bishop in some lines (also creating escape square on a6)
used to take medications daily against depression.. now I only come here everyday :)))
Remember when hikaru cried at the board against magnus?
Hikaru is living rent free in your head
@@kevin-7091 i love seeing him cry. So i guess yes? Its a hilarious video
Can someone pls explain why this is a blunder?
the bishop is trapped....with the simple pawn push for black, whites bishop cant go anywhere and it cant be defended

Who's watching this after Nepo loses a second championship?
I was after the other GM Benjamin.
"Nepos massive blunder" right now, you have to be more specific
Yeahh ofc that's a blunder! But where i dont see it! Where the god damn blunder!?!!
C5 like Magnus
History repeats itself, today Nepo lost a game after he made a HUGE blunder against Ding Liren
Well sh*t
Of course I don't doubt that Hikaru and Giri would have seen c6 on the board as a response but I find it kind of ridiculous to comment with the eval bar that is telling you what to do and then to be so critical of the players' moves. Even both Carlsen and Anand both missed that famous Nxe5 in game 6 in 2013
The difference is ian thought for 5 mins and them for 5 secs. Plus it's just a 2move tactic it's not exactly the hardest thing to see even in a min
If you watched that Anish clip, he literally saw that a minute before the move is played and said “you are not worried about you bishop being trapped?”
They all would find that easily. Hess and Anish saw it instantly. Hikaru was away from the screen.
I mean , i thought Hikaru wouldn't care...
Remind me how many world championship matches Hikaru has played?
If the format was Bullet instead of Classic Hikaru would be champion.

Hikaru, you blundered your bishop against Magnus even worse than Ian did. Maybe have some class?
True, but there's a huge difference between blundering a bishop in a blitz game and blundering in a classical world championship game
Who cares about Hikaru? The real question is what does Gary Chess have to say? He must be plotting to kill Nepo after such a blunder in his game.
Wow
"It's just inexcusable" yet Hikaru isn't the world championship challenger. What a clown
Isn't the description should be her?
To my knowledge Nepo identifies as male.
Lol what
