@@GukGukNinja rn he is busy in GBs of something

@@GukGukNinja nah dubov just keeps talking about porn

1:50

@@EricLatios Timestamp people in the comments saving the day.

I think he said "of course to lose to me you need to play better", that's what I hear? He maybe wanted to say "to WIN against me you need to play better"? But it's not "be bad"

@@hgrowling of course not

@@hgrowling No, he said: "Of course, to lose to me you need to play bad for sure..." 😅

4:10

Lol thats poetic 🤣

Grischuk is much more Drawish than Giri, he should receive that fame xD

@Brandon Isaac ive seen these ad-then-positive-reply chain before, not gonna fall for it guys

​@@erlindaalba1682 ikr, especially in this comment section that has nothing to do with anything which mean they're bots

@@kzeriar25 even their names are the most obvious bot names that could be, trying to replicate a normal persons name, like this isnt the internet

he improves your day, the same way he improves his position in chess

Also Dubov is becoming baby Sasha

Gangsterischuk 🤔✍️

What do the other letters stand for I wonder

The G in Gangster stands for Grischuk.

Whats up with your name lmao

😂😂😂 I thought of the same thing

Hello

👑Sasha is the best!💚🍀✨💪🏻😎💪🏻👍🏻

Why? There's still one round.

@@31redorange08 Ian nepomniatchi is the declared winner, he is 1.5 points in the lead so no matter what outcome comes tomorrow (unless Ian is caught cheating and kicked out or something crazy like that), Ian is the winner.

@@morgancaudill1649 That's not true. He's 1 point ahead. Had he lost, he'd be just 0.5 points ahead. And had Giri drawn, they would be tied. So it was not at all a must win for Giri.

@@31redorange08 its a must win because if he just drew this match then nepo can just draw the next game which isnt hard for a super gm, in that situation, nepo woulf have to loose and for giri to win in order for giri to qualify and considering how in form nepo has been, loosig is very unlikely, so this match was basically a must win.

@@31redorange08 @equi this secured nepo as the winner because he defeated giri earlier in the tourney so if they tie then the win goes to nepo.

Lol, "can't catch a break", Ding, Wang and Caruana all gifted him wins, how many breaks does Giri need?

That's sport for you bud.

@@timogen1970 "Gifted" Lmao don't be an idiot

@@Ash-1803 It's you that is the idiot. Ding and especially Caruana were pressing hard for wins (in games where they would normally go for boring draws) in the late rounds knowing that was their only chance to win the tournament. Giri calmly sat back and accepted these gifts. And as for Wang Hao, anybody that watched any of his games clearly understood that he did not want to be at this tournament.

And winning rating points, maybe more prize money and the feeling of doing something good.

That's on giri really. You have to be careful with everyone not just the favorites

@@jonathanandrianavalona5384 and most of all he helped Ian Nepo win the overall tournament, a fellow RUSSIAN

@@one-to-one-ratio That's not really important to Sasha.

@@one-to-one-ratio In case of Sasha and Anish being a draw, Nepo only needed a draw in the last round.

Exactly 😂😂😂😂🤣

Nah disagree Zlatan is a bit of a loser while Grischuk has a good sense of humor

@@akorthouwer agree i mean they have the same way talking

@@akorthouwer i think you are russian

@@chimi9759 same way of talking? They're complete opposites - Zlatan is a self-worshipping narcissist, while Grischuck is self-deprecating and never misses a chance to laugh at this own expense. "of course, to lose to me you need to play bad" - that's anti-Zlatan. Or, saying about yourself after winning a game while knowing you tournament is over regardless: "some people who are not relevant they decide the outcome" - that's the opposite of Zlatan

Search youtube for thug life Grischuk videos

Nepo wants to play in Sumo

He better prepare well otherwise nepo will fuck him

@@khann2159 yep.. I think he knows that Nepo is not a joke.. Either we will see amazing fight or endless draws

Physical preparation and mental profilactic is part of his winning recipe! You will see that fat ass Nepo not be able to keep with Magnus.

@@khann2159 nope, it's the other way around

you need to play *bad* lol

He didn't want to show up to the press conference.

During this press conference Anish is in his hotel room trying to come up with the impossible plan, how to lose with white against Alekseenko. Spoiler alert: he succeeded!

I'm looking for an ethos. They teamed up against something. What did they team up for in the first place? Let's start there.

I don't think they're about much. But I'm not that curious anymore. See how easy that is?

His Name is Alexander, but in russia you can Tell all Alexanders also Sascha xD

You are in the tournament, but we do not grant you the rank of the challenger! (Freely after master Mace Windu)

Yes and no. the candidates tournament is supposed to select the best challenger for Magnus. Objectively, Alekseenko would not stand a chance against MC. No disrespect. just facts. Wesley So would have been more relevant (in terms of chances of beating MC), but he did not qualify... So apparently the system is flawed. Round robin with questionable eligibility criteria and wildcards...

@@panda4247 Wait a moment! What is flawed is the assumption that the selection procedure guarantees to select the objectively best guy. No, it is just a system which selects a guy who will play the match, and this system involves playing some chess, that's it! The system also involves politics, and the organizers wanted their man in the tournament, hence Alekseenko. Had FIDE declined a single national federation to assign a wild card, it would certainly be better from a sports perspective, but never underestimate the political side of big sports. And, to reiterate, my point was simply that the candidates tournament is not meant to select the most ideal opponent for Carlsen. Just to select an opponent. It has done the job. Hurray!

@@u.v.s.5583 :) I was replying to the OP, apparently my reply took long enough to type that you typed your before.. so it may seem as if I replied to you. anyway. "the candidates tournament is not meant to select the most ideal opponent for Carlsen. Just to select an opponent" --> That's exactly the problem. It is supposed to select the best opponent, and in its current form it only selects an opponent. The politics side of is another thing... Russians did everything to ensure a Russian would win (implanted Alekseenko, did not postpone the tournament in March 2020, so Radjabov withdrew and Ding had a terrible 1st half...). but I am not talking about the politics here. The whole round robin system is inherently flawed just to select A challenger. Not THE challenger. Knockout matches would have been much better.

@@panda4247 In knockout format a guy named Ponomariev once became The World Chess Champion. He was not the best player. He was just the player who won the KO tournament called World Championship. Hence KO systems are inherently flawed for the same reasons, only much more so. Of course, this too is just an opinion. Peace out!

That has been tried and all players agree it is a nonsensical system for chess. Draw is a normal result in chess, you shouldnt force players to do inferior moves to avoid the natural outcome of the position.

A bone? Resigning in a lost position is now throwing a bone?

Without playing it out, yes. Look at any other world class GM. This is not normal.

@@aritradasgupta4461 Why would he play it out?

@@jonathanandrianavalona5384 Maybe you didnt understand. Wang literally handed the game to Nepo on a silverplatter. Grischuk, having no chances of ever facing Carlsen could have done a "Wanger" and allowed Giri to go through to face Nepo for the right to face Carlsen. But instead he "terrorized" Giri and created a draw, which means Giri's chances are over.

@@Corteum Handed the game to Nepo? Right... Believe it if it makes you feel better.

But worthy

6:20 is long? =\

That's what she said. 😂😂

@@vishaldubey7276 😂

Bruh, there was a synopsis at the start if it was too long for you.

Nah, I think she just found what he was saying to be funny. I don't think she was laughing at him, but with him.

I think the press pack in the room also laughed, but you couldn't hear it well due to the close microphones.

As a slavic person, I think he appreciated them for sure. We are built different, much more open than Westerners.

Also these 2 know each other. Anna has been working with chess tournaments for a Long time. She is also a chess athlete, if i'm not mistaken..

@@8jimmyjazz, Far-Westerns like myself concur with you.

lol

Lol no watch his previous interview. He always like that.🤣🤣

You don't know grischuk lol

Damn someone has never seen Grischuk before
