If giri had won the candidates, he would have become world champion. Because , he would draw all the games and take it to the Armageddon game. If he would have got black pieces by chance, then he would become the world champion by drawing it.
I know that by now WE all know who won. But the spirit of the documentary was "who will win to face Magnus". And then at 12:33 the headline on the screen reads "How Karjakin Won the Candidates Tournament"...
"Anand, Karjakin, and Caruana are in the leading group. However, Aronian, Svidler, and the King of Draws, Anish Giri, still have chances of snatching victory." 21:00 Lol. Whose the cheeky mofo wrote this doc?
This is incredible!!!! so well thought out. I work in sales and marketing. This is a expertly designed program that brings to the for front the joy of modern chess that can be enjoyed by everyone new and old to the sport. The company that now has the exclusive rights to the world championship is doing an amazing job in energising and breathing new life into chess as a spectator sport in the way it promotes and engages with its viewers. I was conserned at first when I heard one company would hold the monopoly on the sports viewing rights. Now I am a convert. You are breathing new life and energy into the sport, and are the best thing to have happend to chess since the Bobby Fisher played Boris Spassky. Thank you so so much for your hard work
What do you mean "he deserved to win"? To win, you must win the tournament. He deserved to tie for first and play additional games with Karjakin. Even then, I'm not sure why do you think that it's so obvious that Caruana would win that. Karjakin had a strong tournament as well.
I worded my comment wrong, I meant he deserved another round with karjakin because the tie breakers was absolutely unfair, giving him black and making him HAVE to win the game to win the candidates while karjakin had the exact same score. But in comparison, all karjakin had to do was draw with white... So unfair. That's like making someone have to run 3 km first to win a race while only making your opponent run 2 km...
***** Dude That is not unfair! You start good then! Good luck next time! Everything is deserved and fair! You can argue then that Magnus Carlsen also was just too lucky to win candidates to fight Vishy Anand just because Kramnik Lost!
I haven't even seen Karjakin play this year. It looks like he has slipped to #17 in the world and is only #26 in rapid, which has been the most popular time control since the whole Covid thing started. Is he still playing competitively?
Thanks anyway for this documentary but I wish you guys could spend more time an polish the presentation a bit. For instancet 09:14 when you say Karjakin and Anand met before, common practice is to insert footage or picture of that event! Makes the whole experience more enjoyable. The voice is also not working at all for this.
Did you know that the Mathematician and Poet, J Bronowski ( 1908 - 1974 ) and the Composer and Philosopher, John Cage ( 1912 - 1992 ) were both brilliant chess players?
@347 Giri estate must manage their image..thou can only film sopiko if its done right. You get on the phone with Mariah Carey, she knows how to get them to make the best pictures (from the best side)
Pakistan has also very good chess players but alas we have to play without any support.moreover Pakistan sports board spend a large portion of sports fund on cricket.
PLEASE!!! TAKE NOTE. The presentation of this Candidates Tournament was terrible. The presenters were terrible and did not no what was going on and what is with all the sketches??? Seriously this was awful to watch please sort it out before November.
Ugh, this is indeed a bad documentary. There is pretty much no substance. Also it's funny how probably half of the people at those events have no idea how to play and are just showing off and lounging.
Well Carlesen had never beat Giri in a classical chess match until Bilbao master this year, which it was after the candidates match, so we wasn't lying after all.
Quite on the contrary, as is somewhere mentioned in the clip, she s a good player herself. Netherlands not being ehm generous, i do we say this nicely, wel then dont, like Bangladesh women get emigrated a lot, its a small average and odd language-ed place (south African white language is ours for instance)..anyway its rather usual for players here, to have putzfrau or childcare wife. Dont take offense, just matter f factly. Like Italy or India lets say. This Giri couple can be considered a modern emancipated thing. Not that GM is a normal job , this said aside.
You would think there is no luck in chess. However, as we all are humans, our concentration fails from time to time. It can happen to anyone at anytime. So if your opponent suddenly has a blackout in a winning position, you are somehow lucky that his mind decided to fail in this game at this very moment.
Yes, it somehow is. You can have an Elo of 3000 and still lose due to some stupid blunder. No matter the skill, you can decrease the probability for such a blunder, but you can never erase it.
Elite IQ event?.... Most people with so-called "high IQs" actually believe in the magical China illness, stayed away from other humans, and wore masks. Definitely not intelligent people.
"Giri tries to break his streak of draws, plays aggressively against Caruana, but the seven hour game ends in another draw." Lol.
If giri had won the candidates, he would have become world champion. Because , he would draw all the games and take it to the Armageddon game. If he would have got black pieces by chance, then he would become the world champion by drawing it.
That's a lot of IFs...
Yeah,of course. Ha ha :-)
Actually, the whole chess community including giri himself is disturbed with the fact that he has drawn forteen matches at a stretch.
Anish Drawi
FreshHas absolutely right :-)
A few minutes into watching and this documentary has captured my attention. Very nice visuals and informative to the right depth!
I love how they gave everyone an introduction except... "There's also Fabiano Caruana" 1:24 :-D
I know that by now WE all know who won. But the spirit of the documentary was "who will win to face Magnus". And then at 12:33 the headline on the screen reads "How Karjakin Won the Candidates Tournament"...
Nice catch. I missed that.
Very nice documentary! Kudos on the production value! I'd love to see more of these.
This is a great documentary.
meantime Carlsen is playing football
For the morons in america: "sóccer ball"
Soy Cuba is a wonderful film full of innovative camera work and directed by a Russian film maker.
For the retards outside of America, football.
Giri is going to go to the guiness book for most draws in international chess.
Yes, he is a modern day Karl Schlechter.
Peter Leko is up there as well
Man! This was so good
6:58 Amrutha from Chessbase India :)
"Anand, Karjakin, and Caruana are in the leading group. However, Aronian, Svidler, and the King of Draws, Anish Giri, still have chances of snatching victory." 21:00 Lol. Whose the cheeky mofo wrote this doc?
Wow. Keeping score on a chalkboard. They still do things old-school in Russia. 18:30
This is so good. Well made
This is a good standard documentary
What's impressive is the new design of Staunton chess pieces. Yes, knights are weird looking but by the end of film I needed to own one.
Are there any horses left in India? Their knights end up looking weird, often like dogs.
I thought this video was well edited & great!!
17:09 lol xD

Anyone else think this is an extended product placement for the World Chess Championship chess pieces? They're in just about every shot!
Nakamura (can recover pretty well)
Plot twist: 12:11
(no offence).
00:48 final boss room
A vacuous piece of film, more like an advert than a documentary.
Caruana deserved to win tbh, the tiebreaker wasn't even mentioned in this documentary, so unfair for him
What do you mean "he deserved to win"? To win, you must win the tournament. He deserved to tie for first and play additional games with Karjakin. Even then, I'm not sure why do you think that it's so obvious that Caruana would win that. Karjakin had a strong tournament as well.
You are absolutely wrong! Karjakin beat Caruana nicely in the last game! and you get what you deserve not desire! Understood?
I worded my comment wrong, I meant he deserved another round with karjakin because the tie breakers was absolutely unfair, giving him black and making him HAVE to win the game to win the candidates while karjakin had the exact same score.

Exactly. The circumstances which decided the course of the final game were not highlighted.
I haven't even seen Karjakin play this year. It looks like he has slipped to #17 in the world and is only #26 in rapid, which has been the most popular time control since the whole Covid thing started. Is he still playing competitively?
Yes, Karjakin played the russian superfinal in december and finished #2

I hope youtube recommends this to more Indians.
Chess is hard!
Of course! Board & men are made of solid wood!

John Cage was American. But no I didn't know that.

Well isn't this documentary about chess?

I wish karjakin will be the one facing carlsen..
Mike Marsh He is
And he lost
Sejdr shocking, right?
He did and he lost.

Games should be 30 minutes with no bonus...

Same in India, we're lucky to have vishy, although he played and learnt chess abroad IMO.

She is the Georgian IM Sopiko Guramishvili, Anish Giri's wife.
PLEASE!!! TAKE NOTE. The presentation of this Candidates Tournament was terrible. The presenters were terrible and did not no what was going on and what is with all the sketches??? Seriously this was awful to watch please sort it out before November.
Well...I totally agree. Very general comments and the voice is awful. Also please stop with the constant music.
what are u expecting from russians!!
Paul Morphy yea , sketches were kind of distracting and not much substance.
You all sound like spoiled, angry children.
Spoilt and annoying kids
1:31 Why do they still make them write their moves down by hand, when they have a DGT board, so presumably the moves are being recorded automatically?
Ugh, this is indeed a bad documentary. There is pretty much no substance. Also it's funny how probably half of the people at those events have no idea how to play and are just showing off and lounging.
Sure, the president of Armenia is surely one of those people.
Sorry but there is no way chess is the most played computer game.
Yes it is. What then, Tetris?? lol.

Carlsen has beaten Giri... they lied. 1:19
Well Carlesen had never beat Giri in a classical chess match until Bilbao master this year, which it was after the candidates match, so we wasn't lying after all.
oh
They meant in an official tournament game. W/ official time controls.
If giri can have a wife like that there is hope for everyone.......
giri did lose to magnus..

Sopiko be like He always goes for the Missionary.. but sometimes when required, he does goes for doggy !

I look a bit like Magnus Carlsen.
I've been told me look capablanca. ish.
You more like a stegosaurus.
Women in chess are so damn hot
Well, not all of them are hot. Sopiko is though. Not sure how Giri landed her. He's such a nerd.
Karjakin is such a cutie
Очень не хороший человек!
"Bad luck" is such a misplaced statement in chess...
You would think there is no luck in chess. However, as we all are humans, our concentration fails from time to time. It can happen to anyone at anytime. So if your opponent suddenly has a blackout in a winning position, you are somehow lucky that his mind decided to fail in this game at this very moment.
That is not about luck.
Yes, it somehow is. You can have an Elo of 3000 and still lose due to some stupid blunder. No matter the skill, you can decrease the probability for such a blunder, but you can never erase it.
True. There's no luck in chess. No random chance, with dice, cards, etc. That's why I love it.
@@Paivren That's not luck. It's just taking advantage of the situation.
Fist.

13:29 what's a woman doing at an elite IQ event???
And I thought my comment about the heritage of 'American' chess players was contentious!
She's one of the top women's chess players in the world and is married to Anish Giri, who was playing in this tournament.
Elite IQ event?.... Most people with so-called "high IQs" actually believe in the magical China illness, stayed away from other humans, and wore masks. Definitely not intelligent people.
That woman has more IQ than you clown 😂😂😂
