"Obviously, none of this is obvious."--Fabi...we need this t-shirt
Yes. Yes we do.
I love that at 44:53 Cris is like:
This IS the decise blunder of the match....
And Fabi's like: Oh boy... if only knew what's coming 😅
This was the explosion of tension Fabi promised.
I reiterate, better delayed than premature. 🤭
@@kc910 edging?
premature attackulation
@@erickLguzman ?
@@Russianboyz95 precisely.
Fabi was like a disappointed father watching his sons just blitzing away moves
Fabi is the legend ❤. Hoping you to be back next wcc
It was so funny seeing Fabi vs the Eval bar on the commentary, every time the commentators thought they got the winning move the eval bar would be like NOOOPE. I felt sorry for Fabi lol was a tough day at the office but he calculated some crazy lines.
He spotted nxg6...D5, where ding missed it
@@Sough He spotted a few things that the players missed, but it was just super complex game
Yeah, helps illustrate just how complex the position is.
Fabi was called the machine for a reason. Magnus always said, fabi excels at complex rather than simple
@@Sough he spotted it because no tension plus having the eval bar makes things a lot simpler, honestly hard to say if he would have spotted it in an actual game
“Great success!” Also Fabi saying “He got his prep, but a tempo up somehow” made me laugh
By far the best recap on TH-cam!
lmao shots fired GM Caruana is like "Bro, he was playing at a very low Elo. I won't say just how low, but it's lower than you think I'd say."
Fabi is a great teacher. I learn so much from watching these recaps. thankx guys.
For real fabi is the best at explaining moves better than agad and hikaru tbh at least at explaining moves
"obviously none of this is obvious" lol
Fabi playing 4D chess while we're still on 3D
Have been waiting for the recap for hours

Really my favorite chess podcast / analysis / content right now !
Same here
Interesting factoid to hear Fabi is running an engine with depth 51!
Fabi and Chris, Thanks a lot for your great analysis. Very instructive lesson.
Ian was playing at the end like 1660 ELO player.
Fabi's "I got messages from people..." was hilarious. These two are great together.
Really enjoying the analysis and discussions on this new channel!
11:45 THANK YOU for your expert opinion(s) on Nepo's ...Bd7, ...Bg4! Excellent explanations!
I always wait for fabi's recap even if it comes late.
Funny how Fabi reacts after hearing that "amazing statistic" . 1:07:30 Also was hilarious - "Kramnik followed his prep and was dead lost... It will never happen". Same thing happened to Fabi in the Covid Candidates against Ding, super complex game (prep) and -2 evaluation.
Oh man I was gonna start a chess training/study session then this came up -- now time to procrastinate chess for more chess
Anxiously waiting for the best recap and as usual it’s spot on! You’re just too good giving us 1h recaps we don’t deserve this much guys 🥰❤️ the depth of knowledge Fabi has is mesmerizing!
fantastic explanation for Be7. Thanks for the episode!
Nepo has shown that if you hang with him through the clock pressure he puts on you, he'll eventually give you chances.
Love your work, Fabi! You’re an amazing commentator for the world championship.
Today’s Nepo and freezing Ding in time trouble, so heartbreaking.
Yes. Absolutely. … But. I feel like Ding’s mental collapse is very unusual.
Whereas “played too hastily & simply blundered a world championship match” is something Ian has done before. :(
Ian did not freeze he played wrong move. And after that whatever he played was checkmate. Ding had good position before but he really froze
I'm starting to think there's more than tension and nerves at play - perhaps what we're seeing is actually in fact a glimpse of the effects of having been infected before with a certain pathogen that's all over the world now.
Just like when you’re playing a competitive video game. When you’re getting blasted you stop thinking and go with instinct.
Fabi "I don't want to be harsh"...proceeds to say the harshest thing possible :)
It'll be interesting to see who comes out of the next candidates cycle. Radjabov and Hikaru got really close, with Fabiano having one of the strongest starts.
I know you guys have other things to do, but can you think about continuing this kind of analysis after the world championship for interesting or important classical games?
Best commentary on the championship matches by a huge margin. Thank you!
Fantastic job as always guys 👍
Love Fabi’s analysis!
I was gonna cmt that we need 2 Fabis, one for the live stream and one for the hour-long recap. Then I saw this. Wat a treat!
That stat comment was a worse blunder than the F5 move
Can’t help but feel that whoever wins this world championship, Fabi will be licking his lips for his chances to be fighting for the title in 2025
what a game! great coverage y’all … dings got this!
Fabi is the goat commentator
Colle is Belgian, so Fabiano's pronunciation is likely closer.
"Great success!" 🤣
It does happen with Nepo though, c5 c6 , against Magnus. The shocker of 2021 , now f5 is The shocker of 2023.
One expects somebody to collapse if you're defending a difficult position or chasing the leader (ie, Ding), but not if you're winning the match and have a winning position in a game.
Finally, it drops. Grabs popcorn…
"Obviously, none of this stuff is obvious" Fabi - I enjoyed that one
Great Channel!! ❤
I found the game Kramnik-Giri that was mentioned like 6-7 into the video.

Thank you very much!
Fabi is the man
Fabi says it's strange the play went from so precise to so poor. I don't think so.
Fabi must have seen so many of those Short vs Kasparov games where Short played beautiful attacking chess and had Kasparov dead and then began to miss easy tactics once he knew he was winning. He even stated the one game he did win was because he didn't realise it was winning till the very end.
Knowing you are about to win be World Champion can do very strange things to a guy who very deep down might not believe he deserves it.
I'd still consider this less amazing than the way GM Svidler collapsed in the World cup final a few years ago.
Definitely a crazy game!
great commentary today, mr caruana
This was a crazy game
Fabi checkmated even the statisticians😂
Was waiting for your analysis since 2hrs. Finally uploaded much love, GO DING!!
I have a suggestion, not only for this, but other chess channels:
You should indicate the move number! That way we can all have a reference point to discuss the best moves given a particular position
Which Kramnik giri game are they talking about?
Thank uou for your effort!!
Eric Lindros was a prominent NHL player who in his Junior years absolutely dominated because of his size and natural ability. Because of his size in junior he didn't require the most important fundamental at the elite NHL level. Keep your head up. He was always looking down at the puck which resulted in him receiving of the most brutal hits ever. Nepo is the same. He is so talented and skilled that its clear he has never learned to slow down and evaluate a position in key moments in his youth. He has never developed patience and methodical analyses. If he could play the grind it out strangulation that Magnus can do Nepo, I think, would be a little better than him. But he is so far away from that. Its almost a Shakespearean tragedy
Lindros had an ego issue. Not similar to Ian at all.
1:02:00 I want to see Fabi do guess the Elo.
1660
Fabi the next wcc challenger ❤
Love yall!
Fabi with the Borat drop
World Chess Championship for make benefit glorious nation of Kazakhstan!
@@xCupressocyparis official title drop
Can't spell chess without Hess. Caruana hot as a sauna. GM Cris almost gave Hans his fist.
Anyone have a link to the Kramnik-Giri game with the colle system?
wow his engine runs at depth 51 (12:05)
Rxe6 looks crushing even if he didn't play f5. It looks like maybe he needed to play Qe6? But he definitely needed to calculate there really bad timing to rely on tactical feel.
If you sac the rook on e6 after say ..a5, you can't anymore take on e5 when black interferes with ...fe, d5+ Be5.

This type of game Fabiano would win I think.
Great series
How confident is Fabiano in makings candidates 2024 given it is unlikely he ll qualify via the highest rated elo or circuit points? It appears he has to end up top 3 in world cup or top 2 in grand swiss? However it appears the highest rated elo is for player not yet qualified via other avenues. Perhaps he might get it but can't rely on it. It d mean Firouzja, Naka., Giri and So qualified via other avenues. Provided Magnus doesnt play or cares about qualifying.
He's one of the best players in the world - top 10, maybe top 5 (I'd need to check). He has excellent chances, as good as anyone else.
@Thomas De Quincey I hope he makes it. Great guy too. Here is my ideal final 8: Ding, Caruana, Giri, Mamedyarov, MVL, Nakamura, Radjabov, So. All in their primes or slightly past. For many last chance or one of. For his own sake Nepo better win wc match else I fear for him. I d think Ding d recover better come back stronger. Magnus has done it all etc. Aronian, Grischuk been there done it few times and underperformed. Youngsters have plenty of time. Rapport and Duda got time too. Karjakin no comment lol although he is a worthy opponent in classical top 10 for sure at his best. Who do you want to see in next candidates?
Nice hair cut Christian. Great breakdown gentlemen.
Nepo getting stressed, Ding Chillin'
Christian is a nice guy but he needs to chill and just let Fabi talk.
Premature Attackulation almost happened again😂. .19:05......Circum....
I am attempting to hit the like button, but nothing happens...
Don't worry about the stat comment lol it was stupid af but all g
You gotta feel for Nepo❤
Very late. Was waiting all day for this 😂
I would enjoy these recaps more if the thumbnails didn't give away the results 😔😔😔
Danya always pronounces it call-e. Not sure if that's right or not though.
If Colle was from wallon family as his surname hints, then it propably should be pronounced in the french way: th-cam.com/video/bNqU2Pis6qk/w-d-xo.html [Cəll]
I wonder if Fabi is suggesting that the match is rigged, and Ian is throwing on purpose.
If Magnus doesn't participate in the next cycle then Fabi/karjakin should be the next world champion. They've shown the best nerves and discipline in their matches with Magnus.
Fabi yes. Karjakin no waaaay, he is a silly Putin troll.
@@sneakyvictorsneakyvictor7658 it's not about him being a troll. It's about his chess over the board.
@@chessking29 Sport has no place for Putin sympathisers and instigators on social media
@ftk Silly Russian troll. Putin helped nato expand lol
14 draws
Borat!

Who was getting the European phone call?
Not rooting for any player but the WC title was held by Russians, Europeans and 1 American. It would be awesome to have a Chinese champion.
You forgot Indian.
@@omyadav7367
You're right, the great Anand. I shouldn't have tried to enumerate the countries or regions, putting myself in a position to forget some.
All I wanted to say is we've never had a world champion (open, not women only) from east Asia and that would be great. Hope I'm not forgetting a champion again! I'm no expert on the subject.
It is pronounce "Ka-Lee" like the type of dog.
Blunder nepoed!
There is no chance whatsoever Nepo wins this title. Absolutely no chance.
Not even a sliver of a chance?
@@A51838 Is it?
Normally when I watch super GMs play and think "wait isn't that a blunder?" , usually I am the one who is wrong and missed some clever tactic. f5?? is incredible for a world class GM at the height of his powers.
You were late this time, so i had to settle for The Danny King recap - But your recaps are must-see viewing so here I am 👍👍👍
Late according to what schedule? 🙂
he's not russian palyer, he's FIDE player
Ian deserved this for his Qh4 bluff.
I would prefer if the analysis of the match was shorter and more compressed. But anyways, good job.
Watch at 2x speed. (Non)Problem solved.
I disagree. The game was too complicated and every subtlety needed to be discussed for a complete understanding of the choices of moves made and their alternatives. Important details are missed out with too much compression.
These recaps are the best because they cover everything at the highest level. You really get to understand the game. If you want compressed, watch any of the other recaps...please don't change this format
Blurst
Fabi would have beaten either of these guys
First comment !
Idk is it just me or Fabi needs somebody else to commentate with. This Christian guy asks questions worse than press’ question at wcc
