Congrats Arjun! Kudos to Sagar for such an amazing interview. Very level-headed guy, it really belies his age. Keep entertaining us with your wonderful and dynamic chess! You will be winning many more super tournaments in the future and also will be a serious contender for the world title. Keep improving and stay focused. All the very best!
@@sandybhar Exaclty, when magnus reached 2890, there were 3 or 4 2800 at the time, including Giri and Fabi. Also neither Gukesh and Arjun have proved themselves to be nearly as good as Magnus was at 23. If Gukesh maintains the Olympiad form continuously for a year then maybe we can say he is on the track.
i think the audio issue is due to the echo as the room is not meant for interviews, i dont know much about microphones but i think rode makes good microphones(they ones that cbi uses)
@@gatikgoyal8553 honey even their editing is shit. Like even basic noise cancellation which comes into most editing softwares can make their voices much clear. Its really easy to do that too
Hello @Chessbase India, I realize that many chess players were above 2800 at one time and Magnus reaches above 2880+. Then, what happen which take all of them down? . Why there are only 3 players today? Did they cut the ratings of all or all of them loose the rating at same time period? Please attend it. Thank you.
people win and lose chess matches often and their elo fluctuates, people also have peaks and dry patches for eg ding is loosing a lot of elo and he has not been performing well recently, i think it is also contributed by the fact that gaining elo is much harder than loosing elo as vishy sir lost almost 30 rapid elo during the gcl but gaining elo takes a lot of time. arjun dominated this tournament but as he lost a game in the bundesliga his net elo for the month is negative hope i helped you understand!

This guy is so down to earth, humble and sweet.. 🥰🥰
Arjun is my favourite among current crop of players
Nice Humble Guy
Wish him Greater Heights
El presente y futuro del ajedrez son Argun y Gukesh.
He deserved to 🏆
Still Arjun is treated as underrated player and that is the secret of his success, let them do its doing good for Arjun…
Congratulations Arjun.........
congrats Arjun
Congratulations 🎊
Winning tournaments >>>>> random elo achievements. 2800 is nice to have but it should not be seen as a goal.
I agree with Sagar, 2nd game with mvl was of the highest quality!
Arjun and Gukesh will go to 2900
Not technically easy.. any player who wants to touch 2900 will need more players in 2800+ category to win against. That is not easy.
2830 will be more practical

I hope Gukesh wins the world championship,and then Arjun takes the title away from his fellow countryman,goooo Arjun.
All the best, Arjun Erigaisi. You earned it! 👏
I had a weird dream yesterday night. i was talking with arjun on phone call and congratulating him
🇮🇳🇮🇳 champions 🏆🏆
Congrats arjun🔥🏹
Gukesh - Arjun World Championship 2026 will be so epic if it happens❤
Ajjju Bhai respect button ✅✅✅✅
What's Ajju?
Future WorldChamp Contender 🙂
Hope for better audio quality 🙏
last question was personal
What is the Chennai grandsmasters tournament lineup?
bhai please have better audio, it is not good
I wonder why. A good recorder isn't that pricey too
i think the audio issue is due to the echo as the room is not meant for interviews, i dont know much about microphones but i think rode makes good microphones(they ones that cbi uses)

As a former member, Sagar you need to setup better audio for your videos especially the ones that aren't live on the field.
He can reach through fide circuit and also as top rated as he is top 4
What sagar bhai? we wanted don shah
He needs to play qatar masters to replace his lowest score of 7 in fide circuit.
He is playing Chennai Masters in December.
Arjun body hair < arjun rating

Sound quality not up to the mark
'It's not so much important to for me reach 2800' - Spoken like a true Arjun. Jai Shree Krishna
What does WR stand for?
@@Badissweet : Wadim Rosenstein, Founder and CEO of the tournament sponsor.
I think arjun and alireza are only two who can dethrone gukesh if he become WC
Arjun's hand full of hairs😅
Sagar didnt even cover single match of arjun during gcl and now milking views in his name ..
W
Sagar has always been equally supportive of all indian players.
Prag vs arjun
Vidit vs arjun he covered both lop
Bro thinks Sagar is some robot, who can cover everything.
all that hair in the arms means he isn't a coomer and retains his life force and uses it towards greater purposes.
🤡
Brother, honestly, rethink ur life a bit.

sigma ahh comment
interesting that there is rotary phone on the table behind. is it kept for antique or still being used?
