Met someone from my local chess club (that I didn't know existed), we both agreed you were the best chess youtuber. Love the lessons with the kids you would have been a great school teacher. The stories and the background to games and tournaments is something nobody else does, nor could do. Great memory and sense of humour, an invaluable member of the chess world.

Mad props to Vishy for being back in the world top 10 again at age 54. The only other player born in the sixties in the current top 100 is Gelfand at #76.

In two of these crucial positions, my thoughts of the move were the ones Anand played, so I am thrilled I could lose like a grandmaster.

India actually has amazing hotels for great prices as long as you find the right ones. I was also in Chennai (around 2016) and my hotel was great. And yes, I did get sick right at the end of my 3 week trip. Flight back to US was not fun. Barely made it back into my house before fainting.

It’s funny to hear about adjournment. I had a league game adjourned a few days ago because the building was about to close. Kinda strange how I can analyse the game with other people and with the engine and it still counts for FIDE rating.

You have to be in an amazing mental state to get back from a situation where you were equal the whole game and then you made one mistake and now you're completely lost. )I wonder what would happen if Anand was a bit more aggressive at the beginning of the tournament. Not to rely on his end game technique but on his attacking skills. Maybe he was worried that he couldn't compete with Magnus who was much younger and had more stamina. The best part is, when you look at just the score, you almost feel like Magnus crushed Vishy, which really wasn't the case. Even so, this championship (and many other tournaments) have definitely shown that Magnus is or will be one of the greatest of all time. Thank you, anonymous, for sponsoring this lecture.

Must feel terrible to make such blunders in such games. It's odd how Vishy was winning and just threw it away so many times. I understand he was older and stuff but wow.

so this third game is where "never play f3" and "always play Bf1" come from. Anands attack looked very scary. I was quite new to chess then and didn't notice how unimpressive Carlsen played compared to his peers Caruana, Karjakin, Anand and even Nepomniachtchi until that one had a mental breakdown after taking some unnecessary risks giving his rooks for the queen.

Magnus Carlsen by GM Ben: Not as dominating as other world champions. Magnus Carlsen: Punishing world champion's "near" perfect play, by only one single move mistake.l, in his own land. I mean, how would Morphy/Fischer/Capablanca, etc., outplay Anand otherwise? But mainly etc.

iirc Carlsen played one of his worst blunders in that match.

@vigilante8374 2 ай бұрын

The press conference after one of Anand's losses had this gem: Reporter: "Did you calculate these variations to the end, was that even possible?" Anand: "No, I was thinking what to eat tonight." Still not as hilarious as the Carlsen-Nepo press conferences, though. Just when you think the questions couldn't possibly get more ridiculous, someone asks Nepo if he had cut off his man-bun because he wanted to emulate the practice of samurai when they had dishonored themselves. (If I were Nepo I would've replied "yeah I was thinking about committing seppuku after that blunder, but unfortunately Staunton bishops just aren't pointy enough.")

Anands biggest blunder was playing endgames against the best endgame player of all time between 2010 and 2020.
