bro magnus fixing his pieces after the time has already started in a blitz game is just so badass 💀
@@CZcams_Stole_My_Handle_Too Magnus signals him to go ahead and start it
@@hatemail69 You are right. I'm sorry.
Magnus always looks confused but still continues to play the best moves... Love this guy🥰
the more you know the more comfused your e
It's his psychological plan may be. To look very confused so opponent thinks you are loosing and commits mistakes 🤣🤣😂😂😉😉
so accurate 😆
To force queen exchange, can't move out of it, otherwise the rook on h8 bye bye
Is not confused dude… is just a thinking process of a monster mind
I always love it when they analyze the game afterwards moving their hands around.
same :D
me too
czcams.com/video/4JH322-hqxw/video.html amazing double sacrifice. M Hewitt vs W.Steinitz 1866

Battle between the Generations!!!
Respect for both!!!
Gelfand is one of the very few players over 50 still going strong.
GM Benjamin Finegold begs to differ! lul
@@seekthe9 go ben!
@@jumbleofwords but stay here!
why did I read Gandalf lol
@@myms9681 Gandalf is 3000 ELO my friend
It's amazing how gelfand is still going great even @ 2022
Magnus has the ability to attack while at the same time maintaining a perfect defence. Amazing!
CAPABLANKA AND ALIEXIN SIMULTANEOUSLY
or fischer+karpov@@georgbest337
What a Chess genius , so glad I lived during the best eras, Fischer, Kasparov v Karpovs, Anans, Kramnik and now the best so far MC. Thee ambassador GOAT.
Don't you love it, playing Blitz chess and spending important time to have his pieces in order
I love it, a spanking from the start
Magnus always plays so brilliantly and makes it seem so effortless, notice anytime in any game and you'll find that all of his pieces are protected by some other piece almost every single time.. Just crazy!
That's really what I admire about his game. He may be a bold player, but he isn't reckless. I've become a better player by focusing on this aspect of play.
Omg that ending! Just wow!
I watch a lot of grandmaster's games and I analyze them sometimes. But when Gilfand chose to queen side castle chose to be defeated like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. The queen side had two pawn islands, and him to castle on that side also delayed the development of his rook. So it made it easier for magnus to calculate, you can see how comfortable he got after Galfend castle on the queen side.
Exactly what I was wondering. Also made a brutal mistake to open E file for the rook to enter at the end
If he didn't, it would be another boring defensive game, 3 minutes should be always more dynamic but sometimes some nice games like this rise from the grave just because of a different variation, even if its castle, but because it was castle. I think it should be an incredible 15 minutes match.. anyway, against carlsen the end game is always a nightmare..
Exactly 👍👍👍👍
I don't like publicly criticizing chess masters, but I was thinking the same thing. Carlsen had both rooks ready to roll and those files were wide open.
@@sgarg7588 that was more time constraint error. Queen side castle made him defend the rest of the game
Me - *thinks of next move for Magnus*
Magnus - *makes the move you thought of*
Me - "Am I a Grand Master? o_O"
😂
@more tests in chess clubs and tournaments will show ...
Don’t know why he castled queen side. Left him so vulnerable and open to attack
Gelfand's 0-0-0 is the most surprising decision I have seen in a while. Expected 0-0 for black.
???
@@hellopleychess3190 0-0-0 is long castle and 0-0 is short castle.
yes I am a chess grandmaster@@letmetakeyoufaraway7035
Boris is known for his defense and counter play, but unfortunately that comes with a drawback as well, because it can be very passive and monotone at times.
I love the "Eh, what are you gonna do?" "Yeah, what are you gonna do." exchange of glances at 8:25
The way Magnus shifted his attention to the kingside just when Gelfand was reinforcing his queenside only to allow for weaknesses to show on the e-file is quite something!
Queen side castle was suicidal
Broke him down like a gangster
It's well known that winning from a single weakness is very hard (the side can focus all their pieces to that weakness), so you typically need 2 weaknesses in such endgames to win.
Wow. Gelfand is such an amazing positional player. But Magnus took him down to the wire in this one. Great stuff. Two legends.
8:18
I think playing f6 to f5 was best for Gelfand
Why?
It would be better, because black is looking for a closed fortress where white cannot break anywhere through, despite of room advantage. But would probably still be won for white and Gelfand probably already saw the hole in the fortress and desperately tried something else, while his mental was already given up
@@gandalfswitz After Rea3 it will be an extremely passive position and white can go h4, h5, Kh4 to enter that way. If black doesn't take the pawn then Rah3 eventually and he enters through the h-file. Gelfand would probably not want such a passive position, especially considering that it's a blitz game, meaning he will have little time to calculate if the threats are actually worth dealing with.
That guy is not prepared to play in that category, he makes totally disastrous plays, I don't know why the champion didn't beat him in the middle of the game.
If possible please show the threats on digital board because sometimes I don't understand properly 🤣
Battle of two Legends...
Only one legend: Magnus!
@@JohnSmith-un9jm nope!
You need to read more about Gelfand
I love the mini talk at the end!
"Playing chess is very simple, but playing simple chess is the hardest thing there is" Magnus Cruyff
Still I can't understand why the great Gelfand went Queen side castling?
No way you can push Carlsen to an endgame, mr Boris. Carlsen has the ability of squeezing stone to bring water in endgame. (Magnus Carlsen =Fischer + karpov)
Best way to display a game
Who won?
Can someone explain why carlsen didn‘t use his pawn to get the bishop but his queen instead? (At 4:10)
I keep asking the same questiom
@@a.law87 because he went into a much better endgame by taking with the queen. HOW does taking with the pawn helps???
8:26 the moment when u know, u messed up 😂
3:34 Wouldn't that be touch move by Magnus? Unless he mouthed "adjusting" before he touched the pawn.
Can anyone explain why at 04:09 he took bishop with queen and not with pawn
to force the guys to use/give his queen as well, problably magnus had a strategy where the use of queen was not necessary and thus he "sacrificed" it to aquire the oponent queen.
He had a column with his queen and rook so he didnt want to block that column in first place. Also he didnt want to isolate his pawn in c3 and e5, it would be 2 weaknesses. Black was pushed to get the queen, because that.
Magnus was trading queens and opening the center of the board for the bishop lines on the king. He was basically taking queen away from defending.
His pieces were set up well to start an attack but he needed queen out of the way.
The move I thought was brilliant was when he moved king to h2. He was three moves ahead at that point, and it kept him on the attack.
@@curtish2541 gelfand pushed the trade really.
@@bastiantkd I don’t think so. Gelfand’s queen was defending that whole side of the board and Magnus wanted it opened up.
Magnus was trying to say "I know you're better than that and just got "unlucky". Smth like that, u can see it in handshake as well
Si alguien habla español, que me explique por favor porqué el Sr de lentes no siguió jugando???? Evidentemente soy nuevo pero pudo seguir jugando, porqué se dió por vencido? Ni siquiera estaba en jaque, no lo entiendo gracias
The long castle was dubious
Another masterfully played game by Magnus Carlsen. Magnus is truly one of the greats in chess and someone for us all to play just like.
HAHA! Thumbnail looks like Magnus sayin’ “that move is BULLS#%T!” and flips the table over. 🤣
Has anyone noticed the combination
1- the girl which is on white side is wearing a black shirt and the girl which is on black side is wearing a white shirt
And 2- Magnus wearing white shirt and having white side and other player wearing black shirt with black side 😄😄
0:05 this girl in love
I could able to find boris next moves but unable to find kalicharan''s move except rook a1 placement to open file. Magnus is a beast !!
Who won? And why?
Ah yes! Great Tutorial
I learned to play chess Thanks
Who won???
how can you play Bxe5? Bishop for knight in such position where you only have 1 result draw if lucky.. thats how Magnus win everybody scared..
How do you get the videos of these games?
Magnus is outclass player. Both played well..... Fantastic war. 🤗
Magnus focussing more on the girls than his game😀
Carlsen should not have lost to adbusattarov he is crushing everyone else
What an awesome dark-squared bishop on c5!
Why he could not take with pone ?
Why was the game stopped at last.. surrendering ,and magnus won !??!!!????
I am new to the game and I think it's weird the way you take the opponent's pieces. First you remove the piece, then you move your own piece to that square. It should be the other way around. 🙃
That's the professional way though kids play the way you suggest
@@kctiwari5067 So I can remove a piece from the board and wait a few seconds to decide which piece I will take it with 😀.
@@davidpax That is a good idea which even I didn't think of but professional chess involves time management so we shan't waste much time on deciding the piece
@@davidpax no. You do not pick up a piece and then decide which piece to take it with. Some pieces cant take other pieces because of the way they move. You make your decision. You pick up the piece you want to take. The replace it with yours. Always remember, the pieces all move in different ways.
They didnt hand shake , so it should be cancel..
I'm not a chess player but I'm familiar with the moves a piece can make. I admit it, I don't see why it was over. Can anyone explain why Boris yielded.
His rooks were attacked.
Carlsen win for time
6 seconds left and he was about to lose a rook
lose a tiv
7:39
Nunca vi aqui no Brasil jogador como ele ou que se aproxime do nível dele.......
intuição pura
mequinho
Magnus, ele tem raciocino rápido, bastante estratégico também, muito bom
Magnus touched the pawn but played the queen!!!
So you get bishop in exchange for rook... Then why to resign?
Black is pretty much hopeless after 1...Rd7 2. Bxb8 Kxb8 .3. d5. Two rooks is mighty force , cooperate very well and together with centralized white king they just massacre black kingside pawns and promote one of their own pawn . Being very experienced grandmaster Gelfand just did not want to go thru all this torture and humiliation. To resign was smart decision .
Black will be a full rook down means 5 points down after white bishop captures black rook. And then it's simple win for white. At GM level it's a simple win being piece up.
@@Anant0909 Yes even a pawn down at this level is game over if you are positionally weak
@@stagna1959 Smart or not, was the only decision left. At that level, +2 points is enough to go for a win.
He knows that his opponent is best in the world to convert that endgame effortlessly, there is nothing to do except resigning
0:06 me imagining how my crush should look at me...😂
@ 4:00 Magnus could have won this by playing D4 to E5
I don't undersand why he didn't...
My guess is that Carlson wanted to get the draw to avoid playing someone in the tournament because he is a magnificent talent
@@BrianOzuna26 What difference does this makes? pawn whould have taken it.
@@TheDataArchitect If you play it out after this move there are several possibilities where Carlsen could have ended up in a much better position where I'm confident he could have mated. Those possibilities depend on how his opponent reacts to the dance that would follow after making that move
Why Magnus did not take bishop with pone ?
How does that help???
No handshake?
boris did nothing but defending ...
Gelfand didn't stop the timer so is it a resignation or a draw? I am very confused after looking at some comments
Gelfand resigned, he resigned because he's about to drop an exchange
lost
lose,sry
Superbb😍😍
Why do they each leave a bishop off the board?
They didn't. The two extra pieces you see behind the clock are Queens. They have them in reserve in case a pawn gets queened while they still have their Queen on the board and they need the extra queen.
Cause they are atheist.
wonderful game!!!
What should Boris have done after Re8?
At that point it was too late and his game was lost but to prevent MC’s rook from moving to e8 he should have captured fxg5 1 move earlier and after white’s recapture fxg5 he should have played Rd8 but MC would have still been able to maneuver and gobble a few of black’s k-side pawns and win the endgame
at 4:10 why magnus didnt take bis with pawn, he taken bis with queen. both queens gone why is that happened. is taking with wrong move or he didnt realise there is pawn to take that, can anyone clarify me on this
He wanted an endgame because of better pawn structure.
Good... opponent he was best player
...g6 is inaccurate, better is ...e5. Gelfand's pawn structure was demolished.
Жаль , что когда то Гельфанд упустил стать чемпионом мира в последней партии с Виши Анандом. . Я вообще перестал бы играть в шахматы. Но , он до сих пор играет...
Ghét cái thời gian, đối thủ vẫn ngồi đó có đi đâu đâu mà cần gì thời gian. Vì nó mà ván đấu trở nên vội vã và không chất lượng
I think the Bg4 is good for black
Why there was no handshake???
there was
Did magnus win by time-out?
Yeah he did
No. Gelfand resignd.
@צבי ב see the clock
@@Reaction5408 The clock was on 3 sec when Gelfand resignd
@@zvibtm1
Resigned because his time was over
Black Should have played more aggressive
What’s the name of the chess clock?
Norman
@@Tidoublemy thanks!
why magnus not capture black bisop by pown🧐🧐but capture by queen
I do also want to know
@@a.law87 because taking with the queens gets into a much better endgame. Taking with the pawn helps NOTHING, except limit his own bishop!
Bhai Bhai kya chal chali
Who won? I genuinely do not know.
Are you serioius?? Or BLIND?? Can't you see when Gelfald RESIGNED???
@@TheRomanianWolf I am new to watching chess. But I really appreciate the consideration...
@@arthurmorgan6703 as a rule, look at the end of the video: if both players put kings on white - white won, if they place kings on black - black won, kings on different color squares - draw
This is how passive players get demolished
What a game
Why the use the mask when they walk away? I’ve seen that all over the places, super wierd
This game is a classic amazing torture.
Superb game
who won, i get so lost. does that mean that the older man resigned the game? Sorry im a total noob
Yes, he resigned. Carlsen won!
2:27 what a shitty move by black !!
The pawn is no longer safe😂!
*reads title*
That's what she said!
@@vm_c137 its a meme
Magnus is too overpower
Why didnt he take with the pawn
What happens if boris move his alfil to D7 to atack the white tower?
What timestamp?
I cant even tell who won the game haha
Boris time is over

Magnus is obviously showing that he's not all that bright by wearing a facemask (despite being good at chess).
Grandios Magnus
No handshake at the start!!
that was smooooth
