Magnus Carlsen takes on the Vishy Anand quiz! Phenomenal memory!

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 พ.ย. 2019
- The Tata Steel Chess India Grand Chess Tour is the strongest chess event ever in Indian chess history. Because the event is in India and because Vishy Anand will turn 50 years old in a few days, we decided to hold the Vishy Anand challenge.
We selected 9 of Anand's most beautiful gems and gave those positions to the World Champion Magnus Carlsen. The challenge was to guess who were Anand's opponents in each game and what was the move that was played!
You have to check this video to see how Magnus fared! All we can say is - we are IMPRESSED!

3:45 Giri stealing some spotlight is epic :)
First to see you reply 😜😜😜 post more Tal game man ♥️♥️♥️♥️ love from India 🤘
agad i think i've seen that first game on your channel a few days ago
😂🤣
Love from India👍
Inner Worlds I would like to corroborate your thoughts on the subject as I believe that is how I found chessbase India as well. I believe he plugged them in the mysterious queen sacrifice video or the one just after that in his apology about getting the PGN incorrect(for what it’s worth this is a complete shot in the dark and I am not sure if it was that video but in the spirit of this video with Magnus’ incredible memory, I wanted to test/push my own not so amazing memory).
Carlsen: *gets 8/9 positions correct*
Giri: It's embarrassing!
Anish would make a great indian mother :D
Daymmmm 😂😂😂🔥🔥
Call him drawgiri 😂😂😂
@@sahilverma7045 ouch!
Hot damn! BURN warning!
Anish representing India? I mean ik his ethicity.. but when i saw Nakamura reacting to top 10 chess player stats from 1800 to current, i saw Anish currently in rank 3 but the flag was not Indian.. Vishwanath on the other hand was having Indian flag on the chart.. just asking..
Carlsen is almost 100 elo point ahead of Giri OTB. But Giri is 200 ahead of him in trolling. 😂
lul
Lol
They have a rich tradition of trolling each other!
Lol what's funny is that you can tell that Carlsen is trying to come up with some comback or rebuttal, but Anish just spits out the digs and leaves before Carlsen can come up with anything
Lol I’m not so sure. Carlsen trolls on the board. Have you seen the openings he plays these days?
wow. unbelievable.. i am leaving chess now.. i cant even remember my own last game.
edit : i thought i am the only one😂😂
Oh man. You don't need to leave chess because of magnus has great talent. He's naturally talented, and he choose chess to prove his talent
I don't believe in natural talent. Let me ask you something (probably your answers will be "no"). Have you clearly set the goal of retaining your most important matches in memory? Have you reasearched how to possibly do it? And most important: do you breathe chess 24/7?
@@mfigmac Of course it's no. But I can guess your thoughts. And it's probably, that we breathe oxygen to live, and magus need chess to live. And i didn't mention that carlsen love chess and he dedicated his life to chess, and that may be reason of our argument.
@@videography1677 that's right!
I can't remember my last meal...
Also Magnus: “I don’t think I have a particularly good memory”
If he’s right then I must be already suffering from alzheimer's...
He has a almost perfect one for chess.He doesn t have this kind of mdmory for everything
Yeah I also
Same here
@@Andrew-kh7rz na still he learned all flags and names of countries by 5 and is among the top players in fantasy football too
Mashallah tbark Allah alhamudillah inshallah better astgfrallah
"You studied it?" "Yeah, I came across it."
After two WCC against Vishy... yes!
For people wondering how Carlsen remembers all these positions.
1. Carlsen was Anand's second during 2010 World Chess Championship
2. Carlsen faced Anand in 2013 and 2014 World Chess Championship
3. He is freaking Magnus Carlsen who memorized all 356 Norwegian municipalities by the age of 5.
I bet you cannot even remember game you played last week
or rather test you prepared for last two years
@@hammedibraheem654this is so unnecessary 💀 tf you so hyper for
Wow was Magnus Vishy's second? Didn't know that!
He was not his second, he was there in the team , team shared the ideas with to see if he could refute it or not
Magnus has had 2 world championship matches vs Anand. With months to prepare he will know his games inside out.
I bet he knows most games from super GMs or TOP20.
That's true man
In one interview he said he can remember 1000 game
@@kavyanshagrawal5279 not 1000, but 10 000 games he said
Still, his memory is astonishing
Who could ever dislike this video showcasing the incredible memory of the world champion? Probably stockfish, alpha zero and other engines
Giri with 21 different youtube accounts... :)
What do you mean, engines have an even better memory ;) It was probably some salty opponents that he crushed in blitz tournaments
Rumor is Magnus disliked it, he wanted to go 9 for 9.
@@davidking4838 you got it..
@@davidking4838 I liked your comment then i saw the no of likes. I liked it again.
this isn't memory, it's real familiarity, like hearing a few bars of a song and knowing what it is and being able to sing the whole thing. He feels games on an emotional level and can recall them like we recall names of people
Very interesting!
That is a great analogy ! These notes dont fit any other orchestra so he knows who is playing... Still a crazy memory no matter how he does it !
I didnt know that you were carlsens psychiatrist
I like the analogy but still, the sheer number of games he recalls must be in the tens, if not 100s of thousands if he was able to know so many of these. I probably know the lyrics to a few dozen of songs and I can recall maybe a couple hundred peoples names. I still find this pretty darn impressive.
@@tee4222 when Manus was 2 he could Solve 50 pieces jigsaw puzzle .
By the time he was 5 he has memorised the names of all the countries , theri capitals and population .
I just loved that interview. You can obviously see what a tremendous chess enthusiast Carlsen is. Even though he and Vishy were rivals during the World Championship Matches and they still compete against each other on a regular basis, Carlsen doesn’t want Vishy to stop playing because he respects him so much and is thankful for everything he has done for chess in the past and still does nowadays. This video perfectly captures Carlsens immense understanding for the game and just when I thought it couldn’t get any better a wild Giri appeared and trolled Carlsen. Thanks for that video-gem!
Love Magnus face after Giri's "It's embarrassing!"...
Mix of "Oh no. Not that troll again!" and "Be calm, Magnus. Be polite. You're on camera!"
his memory also has some drawbacks. when his wife says "I told you to bring out the garbage" he cant say "oh sorry I forgot"
If she didn't give him the position where its going...then its fair to ignore and forget
divorce in 2 moves

Deeply unfunny. Pathetic bourgeois geek.
1:56 = The difference between 2400 FIDE and 2800 FIDE.
IM Sagar Shah: This is an anti-positional move.
GM Magnus Carlsen: It's not an anti-positional move. It shows wonderful understanding of the game. You need to prevent h3. That's the point.
I was looking for this. Thank you.
Do not forget the Grin Carlsen had when explaining this
Dear Carlsen
I have history exam on 2nd of December. Could you appear on my behalf.i would b great ful 2 u.
Use memory palace, Carlsen good in memorzing games, because his GM. This is professional memory. I sure Magnus dont know how to help you. Try to log in Art of memory forum best memory athletes will help you. Good luck!
@@andrejlykov6408 Thanks for the tips!
@@andrejlykov6408 r/woosh
Oh man 1 year completed ...how was that
I’m gobsmacked. Carlsen’s memory seems to have no “best before” date.
lol 😂 underrated comment
His memory is crazy good !!
Loving the coverage of this tournament!
That's insane! And for those of you saying "oh he had to study his games when he played him for the championship", can you remember that much detail about any test you studied for 6 years ago?!?
And he remembers then instantly. Looks at a near endgame and immediately knows it arose from the Naidorf (whatever that is).
@@yidiandianpang 😊 just so you know: Najdorf variation is a very popular line from the Sicilian defence (the one that opens as e4 c5). Najdorf has a6 as a key-idea for black after the main line exchange of pawns on d4.
You must be a noob to think it's insane
Any decent 2200 can remember the identity of any chess game they've ever seen if the game is of some significance obviously
@@Phurngirathaana "remember the identity" is very different of what carlsen did in this video... are you blind or what? I'm 2215 and I cant remember the correct order of the moves even of my recent standard games
@@lostblue5651 but do you not know the moves of Morphy vs Count of Isouard?
What a champion. We're living in a privileged time. So much good content being saved now for posterity, which was not the case even 20 years ago. And to have a deserving champ and possible GOAT like Magnus is a treat.
@@nicbentulan Wesley is a contender for sure! And having a great year!
How on this world is possible to remember the game, year and next move played by another chess player..Magnus world champion for a reason!
Can't you remember the year and the director of the movies you like? With chess is not that different... he just loves chess and knows a ton of games. It's not like he is studying random games, Anand is a top player and he played against him twice in the WC... he had to know Anand's games very well.
@@alexandrefreitas9295
Yes, the difference is we have pornographic memory and poor Carlsen has only photographic memory..
The top 20ish players could probably all do this, to high degrees of accuracy.
I remember football moves, players and year even time I watched the game !! This is not genius lol
@@karthikbtechit LOL
For us it's crazy moves, for Magnus it's deep understanding
this guy is genius, I mean this is what dedication looks like
2400 IM: This is an anti positional move
Magnus..smirks almost as if to say “yeah...this is not for mere mortals. This is why we (2800s) have a deeper understanding of the game”. Phenomenal memory and definitely a genetic marve
Do you think it's genetic? Magnus doesnt seem to be a savant..
@@mfigmac
Of course he has some genetic advantage. Not necessarily autistic photographic memory, but his memory and brain capacity can not be average, otherwise he wouldn't be a world champ. He is not the only hard working chess player who has been playing since they were little, there are thousands and thousands of those who'd never beat Magnus once. Was it at age 9 or 12 he drew a game with Kasparov? Definitely not your regular brain.
@@sebaba001 so everyone who is the best in something has a genetic advantage? He may have an evolutionary upgrade (that would go with Darwin), but it's not a fact until proven. There are many factors that lead someone to world Championship, (like team management, study methods etc) besides genetic. i don't think it's so clear, but could be. In science, we need proofs beyond "if this, then that".
@@mfigmac
OH there's plenty of proof that not one human is the same to the next. Look at height, look at reaction speed, look at IQ. We are all different with different capacities. That'd be like asking for scientific evidence that LeBron is indeed more apt for basketball than your average 5'2 Asian female. Obviously Magnus capacity for remembering and quick puzzle solving at the very least is above average. Again, you won't find an average 5'9 guy ever being the best basketball player in the world, hasn't happened once in history and might never happen. Claiming Magnus is probably just average is an insult to the amount of hard working chess players and coaches there are in the world. No matter what team you have, a 12 yr is not gonna draw kasparov if it's your regular kid, and no matter what team you have when you're playing blitz and bullet which Magnus is still #1 in the world. If you play a lot of chess and actually try to get better and see how complex a game it really is you'd realize no one becomes a world champ for like 6+ years simply by working hard. You need hard work, talent, and on top of that a good team/being brought up with chess. Even then you might just be a regular GM which no one thinks much about. There are levels to chess.
@@sebaba001 It must be confortable to live in a world where everybody who is always better than you has a genetic advantage. We are different from one another, but not necessarily better. Stephen Curry is only 6'3", which is above average, but a low height for a NBA protagonist. I don't think these guys work harder than anyone. Maybe they found a way to work better.
I don't care who you are, this is crazy impressive. Magnus has studied hundreds of thousands of games, but to remember Vishy's games, when, against who, and what moves were played next.... This is off the charts!
How the heck he remembers all those positions, I don’t remember what I ate for breakfast today😬😬😬
Cuz he prepared for WCC so he prepared
Well it’s his job to remember :)
@@kavyanshagrawal5279 He's also a genius with a 190 IQ.
Not only does he remember the positions, but also the year and place it was played and the opponent.... Incredible!
Magnus is a savant.. that's pretty much all there is too it.
Great, to see Magnus in India.
Lots of love, from the people of India 🇮🇳 🇳🇴 ❤️
I am both inspired as well as intimidated.
It looks like these super GMs have some special SD card in their head where they can store all these chess games! 😲
Edit: I make chess videos in Hindi do check them out 😁
It's awesome, at the same time not so much because i know many crazy fans of cricket, football who will tell you ball by ball any game of their favorite team.
Truth be told, SD card cannot retrieve data this quick when stored millions of entries. Probably a really big L1 cache with O(1) read time?
2400+ rated player memorize a lot of games , too
ıf you work a lot of you can do it
@@crazyim5 A clever hash and retrieval algorithm and it is only one single access to the drive (or maybe a few). So an SD card should do just fine.
sare purane tricks h kuch naya lao
Never had doubt that aliens do exist among us earthy creatures.
Vishi is also an alien then.
We need more of this with more gm's, this was so good, I cant believe his memory
Lmao Giri is such a clown. Magnus vs Anish chess boxing
I swear, Giri must have wired Magnus just so he can pop up and troll him when Magnus is most vulnerable.
@@syonnain Magnus &Giri:Am i a joke to you? Why do you using your sense of humour just to troll others?
Giri is an idiot
Yes, agreed. Met him in S. Louis in Aug 2019; Giri = snob
In chessboxing Magnus wins ez
5:25 "Do you have any Vishys for him?" Hahaha, I'm still laughing as I can't believe how he knows so much!!! It's amazing!
I think this magnus guy is going places. He could probably beat the kid in his chess club.
Why don't he try professional chess 😂
he is world championship already two times you idiots what are you talking
@@bilbocosby5310 Joke, your head, etc.
@@albertojaimes2985 is everyone here brain dead (from alcohol, weed, etc, ) that i dont understand what your saying, speak normally
@@bilbocosby5310 It was a fucking joke, of course they know that Magnus is the world champion. It's pretty presumptuous to assume that everyone is braindead when you can't understand basic fucking grammar.
No idea if you're a troll or not, but I'm responding as if you aren't
Most depressing thing to watch for a chess aspirant
🤣
Magnus is so lovable in this interview. He really understands and appreciates Vishy's games on a deep level
A champion appreciating games of another champion.
"Wish his not done yet!"
-Carlsen2019
He reads the board faster than most humans read words 😅, really amazing
What a great player he is so telented and Sagar sir I am excited for all the video coverage for this great chess battel. Thanks for your hard work.
1:52 just casually remembering games he barely looked at.
Giri arrives right on cue..."Shame on you!" LOL!!!
He looks at Anand like we look at Anand.. A LEGEND.. He gets better by studying his games..
he had 28 world championship matches so ofc he knows him well
And thats entry level requirement to be world chess champ
Excellent interview idea! Great way to keep the geniuses interested by the interview ! so much better than the stupid redundant questions that are frequently asked.
Need more videos like this! It's awesome!!
He is really deserves to be on no 1 player in chess from such a long time... Great person also very humble towards everyone
It just gives me a great feeling when I see this guy Magnus carlsen everytime he just some different phenomenon
this guy is so humble for all his talent... love him so much
Great video, now we need Magnus to solve studies :) these are the best!
this man has awesome memory, one day he will be a great chess player
He wished Vishi a happy birthday, but when Anna Rudolph asked him to wish Fabi a ahppy birthday before the 2018 World championship, he said no. lol!
Fabi had to know that he will not give any gifts
How is this possible? Memorization of an entire game I can grasp but to recall positions from games you may not have thought about recently is incredible.
That is freaking UNBELIEVABLE! No wonder he always knows the best move, he remembers every game ever played!
Chessbase is questioning database(Magnus) wow!
Sagar shah sir always have something interesting to ask 👌well done its pleasure to watch chess base india growing
Thanks for these interviews.
Thanks sagar for nice interviews and questions
Humility humility humility, and respect for others, absolute gentleman, Maggie i love you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Well, in some press conferences Magnus clearly shows when finds the questions boring or annoying, and then he is no longer so respectful. But I think Sagar is a really good interviewer, and the idea with the quiz is great: Perfectly suited for Magnus and his phenomenal memory, and I guess he really enjoys it; and the quiz is interesting as well as for many of us viewers.
@@eltamin1966 you cannot reach such a level if you dont have such good behavorial values?, And if he says he is bored that is not disrespect at all, and didnt you hear when he says to.sagar that it is not an anti positional move but a move which shows great understanding of the game, in previous interviews also he has said good things about vishy, he knows how to respect legends❤️
@@satviktripathi7263 I think you misunderstand me here. Magnus is very respectful to his colleagues, of course. And to Interviewers like Jan Gustafsson and Sagar Shah as well. What I meant is that he can be less respectful towards interviewers if he doesn't like their questions. But I don't criticise that, Magnus is very Independent, and does not care much what people think of him. Daniil Dubov once said that he learned from Carlsen in that respect, to care less about "what people say".
@@eltamin1966 someday i will also become a gm and beat magnus 😂❤️❤️
@@satviktripathi7263 There are certainly easier goals in life 😉. But without ambition nothing is achieved, so why not try 😎.
Fan of chess. Fan of Carlsen, Anish, Fabiano, anand. Wow. They are in my Town.
This guy is incredible. Not only this video, but the one of him playing against three players at the same time, while blindfolded.
Very interesting series, please continue.
I've heard that Magnus knows 100,000 games in his mind from the 60 minutes he did about 8 years ago. The man is awesome
magnus is amazing. its a great time to be a chess fan
He is simply a GOAT, Magnus, as humble and modest as any expert can be....lucky to have met both of them ..... lifetime memory for me......
Absolute amazing. These guys are geniuses, and Magnus most of all.
I m Indian
N i feel like a shame
We are not selfish right sagar
Whomsoever comea to India
We speak about hari, Anand, vidit, Pragg
But that man standing in front of you
Is a current world champion
And undoubtedly greatest of all the time
So can't you ask single question about his journey to the greatness that he achieved
Yes exactly. He was the one who deservedly snatched the crown from vishy and yet some of his personal insights in the interviews are missing. Hope the interviews are not so biased towards the indian gms, nothing against them.
When we analyse an interview, we have to see the content and intent of the interview, here it's obvious that the intent was to see how much Magnus knows about Vishys game. And it pretty well served the purpose and I thi k anyone who would see this video would be awe stuck with Magnus the Genius!!
lmao
This Magnus guy is a genius and worthy of respect. We need to honor the fact that he is the greatest chess player humanity has ever seen. He remembers the positions, next moves, players name and the fucking year.
As an Indian I do appreciate Vishy but Magnus is greater and bigger.
Agreed..
This guy is the honestly the greatest player I have seen. Such a talent. Magical.
The best thing is , he doesn't care how good he already is. He still practice and keep improving
Amazing. I don’t remember google even has a similar photographic-referential database to give immediate answers like Magnus did.
Magnus Carlsen is my idol and I definitely want to meet him once. Hopefully i get a chance to see him at the London chess classic in December as I live in London
too bad
Sagar , make the same video with Anand recalling Magnus's games ...let's see how that goes !!
Anand will do even better
Really
I showed my Dad this and he was impressed that he could remember his old games so well. He was shocked when I said they were someone elses games he was remembering.
This is incredible. Thank you for sharing
jeeez, I don't remember what I ate last night
If your job was to remember what you ate last night, you would remember. Probably, Carlsen doesn't remember what he ate either. his mind is not on food.
@@mfigmac Carlsen eats GMs for dinner.
Symptoms of dementia....
Don't worry, Carlsen remember what you ate last night...
Amazing memory!
Genius !
Seriously what dedication towards passion looks like
So many comments are talking about Magnus' ability of memory. Personally, what I got from this video is that Magnus definitely has a deep respect for Vishy and his games. Very nice to see.
Photographic memory 🤔
What a gem of person MAGNUS is😍
"I hope he's not done yet"
Vishy didn't disappoint at all
For me, the most impressive is that he remembered year and tournament - those are details quite irrelevant to the studying of a chess game yet he got them right.
I can't even remember today's date unless it is a birthday of my family's member and I get a remainder in the calendar :)
It makes me think that we do not belong in the same species... Damn!
They should show him his own banter blitz games, I bet he doesn't remember any of them, lol
This video is gold.
Wow, what a memory, that's what is required from a world champion, truly amazing.
I thinks he might have played Anand for some important title so he needed to study his games all of them.
mmhh but I cant rembere what that was, somthing champion....
Let him talk..you have given him the puzzle so have patience and listen.
The conversation was fine
What, this interviewer is great, knows his stuff and keeps the talk flowing
Sagar Shah is a nice guy, a fellow Indian. I like his passion for chess journalism BUT he is over enthusiastic and crosses that line bit too often for my liking. He has to tone down a bit, that's my feedback and constructive criticism.
I
It was just a test. Don't expect words of wisdom
It was nice to be reminded how incredible humans can be.
speechless... its carlson's dedication to chess 🙏🙏🙏🌻🌻🌻
This kid kind of knows his stuff :0
This might be the most impressive thing I've ever seen.
One of the greatest photographic memories I’ve ever seen.
Wow...Truly a Great Chess Champion...Phenomenal Memory Indeed...What a unique guy
When he said "I'm seeing this game now", it confirmed that there's a secret computer in Carlsen's head 😂
Interviewer: Do you have any wishes for him?
Me: I Vishy him An Ant.
fuck you. You annoy with your senseless dialogues.

@ they have their friendly banter going, but i dont know if friends-friends. Anyway, judging by Magnus face I think Anish went a little too far there.
Magnus' answer to the comment in 1:56 is an awesome lesson (albeit very short) to all viewers of this video.
Everyone loves Vishy, that says a lot about the man
