Nakamura mentioned on his stream that the position was drawn when the eval bar was showing close to winning . It was a difficult endgame to convert but Ding in his element was able to do it .
It is equal only under the condition that one side plays certain moves that are sometimes extremely hard to consider for a human. That is why you should look at the actual position instead of the engine evaluation. The player with the more comfortable position is likely to win.
@@aronuchukwuezugo615 that's like saying where was Alireza 2800 cos he lost matches. Ding is not having a great tournament but that happens that's chess Even magnus can lose, Fabi went from 2800 to 2780. Chess isn't just simply about rating, it's also about consistently showing who is the best like magnus does
@@gffg387 I am not saying he doesn't deserve his Elo rating. But the reason why he won Duda here is not necessarily because he is 2800. If that was the case he should have won Nepo with engine lines also, and because Nepo is 27xx Apart from Magnus, if you ask me I think these GMs have their days. Sometimes they are on fire, while some other times they struggle. Being 2800 Elo or 2700 elo makes no real difference
I've been craving for another video since last night. I am really grateful to those who contribute to the channel and make it easier for us to watch it free. When I get up financially I will be a member. And thank you Agadmator. I used to be so so and very inconfident about chess. Your videos have definately had a great influence on me and made me a chess fan and also made me happier in difficult times of my life. Though I know I should be trained professionally, I have leared a lot and got much better in chess ONLY watching your videos.
If chess were an anime First Act: scrawny, helpless King disappears into the safety of the castle Second Act: the heroes grow restless as King is MIA and their numbers dwindle Third Act: King reappears at the critical moment, with muscles and confidence, ready to exert dominance over the realm
'This is a somewhat uncommon move, played just once, by Genghis Khan v Simon the Cobbler in the Ulan Bator Masters, in 1367. Of course, that was without the help of engines. Genghis went on to lose that match, with the white pieces, and as a result, invaded Chile.'
looks like ding is steady and slowly recovering his best shape in this tournament.. if he can win the next game caruana and nepo should be seriously worried
About the photo shown, it can be noticed that the players sit on different kind of chairs. Dudas chair seems fairly dominant with such large profile compared to Dings chair.

I instantly thought Bishop h5 since it's the only safe square for the bishop, but you said it was a crazy engine move so I assumed it had to be a sacrifice!
Ding Liren is tied for third place after round 9 with 4.5 points. Ding is the sleeper in the tournament. In his next five matches he opens with black 3 times and white two times. He needs to win all five games.
I am amazed how fast (less than 2 minutes) i found Bh5 and i was really sure about it even tho its always hard for me to find pause the video movies in the classic format. Congratulations for me i wasn't here just to enjoy the show.
At the pause the video moments, once it is stated that the move is bizarre/ugly/strange engine like, it becomes easy to find. In this case, the only defence against the obvious threat was the Bh5 move, so it has to be looked at even if it seems strange, and it turns out that it sorts out the other problems as well.
You said you need "huge Engine Depth" for that Rook to e4. When I scanned the position* and asked the engine, this move was the first to come out. *If you don't know: There are apps, chess position scanners, with which you take a picture, and you got them on board and can share with other apps.
@@Anfoplach But my phone calculates locally. I can feel how hot it becomes if I let the app running. I have set it to show me 4 best moves and continuations. It took 5 seconds to came up with Rook E4. Then it took some 30 seconds to start showing Eval for 4 best moves. It settled to Rook to e4 +0.3, then +0.1, +0.0, +0.0 before I stopped.
9:47 white can advance that pawn to a7... if black took takes it, next move is a double check with the knight (king and rook of a7) So white wins!!! if black rook doesn't takes the pawn on a7, next move castles...
Wow, Fabi is losing to Duda , the brilliant move f4 from Duda won the game for him, grabbing the free piece, the bishop, Fabi won't resign probably but he can't hold it, and Nepo is very happy now. Also brilliant win for Hikaru , he did great.
Ding always seems to win with cool king walks to the other side of the board to help push his pawn to victory. He has recently done it against even Magnus twice where Magnus was reduced to just shuffling his king or rook back and forward in total passivity.. same as duda(but Magnus position was even more hopeless, Duda was at least not in zugswang and could push pawns still lol). Seems like this is a motif of ding's, and how he wins vs super super GMs at the highest level if they don't make any outright mistake or blunders and fall prey to tactics or an attack in a miniature.
@@monstermagnet3150 wherever theres a will, theres a way. I get it that he wasn’t so hot in the first half but now that he has his first win, he can catch on fire.
I'm starting to wish that Magnus gives up the title. a match between any two of Nepo, Fabi, Ding and Nakamura would be better than anyone of these against Magnus. edit: It would also be fun to see Magnus in the next Candidates
I’m happy to pay a nice price if you are willing to do so. Or I can even mail a chessboard to you to sign if it’s too much of a hassle for you to provide one. Thanks!
Agad: Try to find the disgusting engine line that the superGM could not find, while I give you a couple of seconds.
Me: I think I'll pass this one.
😂😂 good 5 year old funny comment
Me with my 1000 elo, "Now this looks like a job for me!"
@@s0ulweaver bro the comedy cop
I feel like it’s quite obvious based on what he says I’m only 1600. It’s much harder when you don’t get the hint that it’s a weird move
It’s the same with puzzles. 1600 can easily do like 3000 rated puzzles cuz they know it’s a puzzle but in game they miss quite a lot of chances
Knowing Magnus, that android, he would've found the "disgusting engine line".
When Ding walks the King, you simply resign

Radja, Ding and Alireza got their first wins of the tournament. Now only Duda is left! I will be rooting for him until he wins one game ❤
But he should not win against Fabi
What about after that?
Let him win against Nepo if they are yet to play
Same felt really bad for Duda but I also wanted Ding to win hopefully Duda wins his next game
Rooting?
It was really impressive how Ding outplayed Jan in what the engine claimed was an equal engame. That's 2800 level for you
It is equal only under the condition that one side plays certain moves that are sometimes extremely hard to consider for a human. That is why you should look at the actual position instead of the engine evaluation. The player with the more comfortable position is likely to win.

When the King is walking then the Ding must be winning
Ding walk.

Agad analyzing game of Ding. That’s what i called chess heaven
❤
I was so excited to see Ding's King start on his Victory Stroll!
I wish ding wins all the remaining games. It is very unfortunate. Actually he played very well. It is unfortunate he could not win some matches.
Wow!! In my humble opinion, the best game of candidates .Ding is a beast!
looks like ding is steady and slowly recovering his best shape in this tournament.. if he can win the next game caruana and nepo should be seriously worried
Even though the morrow is barren of promises, nothing shall forstall my return.......LOVELESS
Thank you Antonio for always letting us enjoy a nice photo for a few seconds with our friends in the bar or the library!!!
About the photo shown, it can be noticed that the players sit on different kind of chairs. Dudas chair seems fairly dominant with such large profile compared to Dings chair.
I really hope Duda wins his first game. Dude(a)'s a popular guy in Poland which has led to many increase in the number of chess events in Warsaw.

Wow, I actually guessed the pause the video moment for once. Maybe i'm not so bad at this after all 😂
That King walk was spectacular, like something from Lord of The Rings =D
Alekhine's gun and a spectacular King walk... this is epic material 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Not exactly the gun
Amazing dingwalk in the endgame.
That FFVII: Crisis Core reference tho
Killer killer game. I love the ended checkmate chances. Great job. 👍
A LOVELESS quote from Crisis Core? And Elden Ring titles? Agad seems to be playing a lot more than chess!
Came to see if anyone else caught it. Love it!!!
I was wondering if anyone else remembered that quote from crisis core
"Crisis Core?" Seriously?!? This has been uttered for over 5000 years and pertains to Isis.
"The Wandering Soul knows no rest..."
@@thequalitones171 I don't think anyone cares about Isis, if you google the quote all you get is final fantasy
Another Ding King walk!
Still hoping for Ding at the championship... Such a nice guy.
The only way this channel could get better: final fantasy quotes!
It’s amazing how wonderful Player Ding is but yet he’s not a fan of e4 at all.
After a number of Elden Ring quotes for his video titles covering the last games, agad hits us with a curveball from the past with a Crisis Core line
I instantly thought Bishop h5 since it's the only safe square for the bishop, but you said it was a crazy engine move so I assumed it had to be a sacrifice!
12:17 was the most elite dadbod shuffle in recent times
This has to be my favourite introduction to the game till now..
These titles crack me up 😂 thanks agad!
Nice battle. Always exciting w Duda and Ding
The guy who won classical World Cup is at bottom of table, this is really tough
the only candidate who qualified by defeating Magnus

Why I watch agadmator videos:
20% content
80% video titles
The wandering King knows no rest.
agad after telling us exactly what happened in the game with less than a minute of video: "lets not spoiller too much..."
Another grt king walk by ding.
You find the pause the video because it's the engine's choice. I find because it looks the most badass.
We are not the same.
06:49 he always forgets to prepare the one that he prepared 😂😂
INCREDIBLE knight sacrifice by Rapport against Ding! #suggestion
Notice the photo!! Ding has another model of chair again! "As I know you like this kind of stuff."
Just amazing chess all round to be honest 👌🏽
Id really like to see either hikaru or fabi get the chance to play magnus.
The king walk, spectacular

In this case, the only defence against the obvious threat was the Bh5 move, so it has to be looked at even if it seems strange, and it turns out that it sorts out the other problems as well.
For those who are asking why 4.b4 is a bad move... it is because it gives black a strong battery in c-file and allows black to control the c4 square
Fantastic king walk
Engine moves wow 😯
Cheers to Ding🥂🎯
I always forget to prepare the new one I prepare
"So not to spoil too much" i think we cross that like already 😆
You said you need "huge Engine Depth" for that Rook to e4. When I scanned the position* and asked the engine, this move was the first to come out.
*If you don't know: There are apps, chess position scanners, with which you take a picture, and you got them on board and can share with other apps.
Maybe it is becouse when certain position is being analysed in the big depth, the engine will save it to own database?
I think that move was a bit weird, but certainly one of the best move available for the long run...
@@Anfoplach But my phone calculates locally. I can feel how hot it becomes if I let the app running. I have set it to show me 4 best moves and continuations.

"I always forget to prepare the new one I prepared."
not sure why but at 8:02, I thought Agad was going to say “and here comes the .. [Boom!]” which is a lyric from a Nelly song.
#suggestion Round 10 Duda - Caruana, watch that one!
Agadmator writing a book Or something, damn the titles of the videos these days. Really loving them.
Ding Liren: Hah! Is that the best you can do?
Its funny when agadmator is really trying to no spoil to much of the game 😂
#suggestion DUda vs Fabiano Caruana FIDE Candidates 2022
9:47 white can advance that pawn to a7...
if black took takes it, next move is a double check with the knight (king and rook of a7)
So white wins!!!
if black rook doesn't takes the pawn on a7, next move castles...
This man Antonio is the real legend he never sware he never talk bad abouth anything true gentlman
The title is a LOVELESS reference from Final Fantasy: Crisis Core
Wow, Fabi is losing to Duda , the brilliant move f4 from Duda won the game for him, grabbing the free piece, the bishop, Fabi won't resign probably but he can't hold it, and Nepo is very happy now. Also brilliant win for Hikaru , he did great.
Nice 1st win!
The ugly moves are always the most beautiful... It's all a matter of perspective
11:52, or 1...Rf8 2.Rb6 and Rb8+.
Going in to watch chess, contemplating on the meaning of beauty.

...We seek it thus and take it to the sky.
OMG... It's amazing how fluent and easy to enjoy the game is when Antonio doesn't show dumb engine lines. Love it!!!!❤️
I'm here to listen to Agad say "Ivan Šarić".
That is all.
Alas the many predictions are true, computers & engines are beginning their deleterious campaign v the amazing human mind

That FF7 Loveless reference tho.
FUSIOOOONNNNN
Alieza let’s go! I know this game wasn’t on him but like before, I would love seeing Magnus and him play for the title.
No way he is going to win, Nepo, Caruana, Naka and maybe DIng have chances
