The fact Robert spotted that tactic with ease is utterly disgusting. GMs are just on another level
It's a well known trap (at that level at least)
I don't remember the players, but there was a GM game from last year where this exact tactic got played, so I am sure Robert recalled that game. There is a relatively well known game in the Trompowsky which may have been the first time this tactic was deployed. I have no doubt Fabi knew about both games.
True, but he said he had a little help from the engine since he saw white was winning after bishop to e4, and then searched for the winning moves by process of elimination.
Can’t be that well known if alireza didn’t spot it 🤣 I didn’t know it. Did you?
@@daeuriAbasov vs Someone
Fabi expression the moment Firouzja took the rook absolutelly kills me 😂
What time broooo
@@ChessAscension 4:08
"... what? did i miss something? Did I blunder or did he? Do i really get to play this insane combination now? "
True
He went pikachu face lol
When Fabi sacrificies two rooks he's a "genius" and "#3 player in the world" but when I lose both rooks in under 10 moves I'm a "disgrace to my family?"
Why does this comment feels so personal?
Well he's name is fabiano
The only difference is that you didn't go on to win the game.
disgrace to my family 🤣🤣🤣
Reads like a Viz Letterbocks entry lol. 'Once again it's one rule for the elites of the chess establishment and another for the rest of us.'
Commentators predicted wild combination, two rooks got sacrificed, two brilliant moves and win in 9 moves. Truly legendary stuff. Waiting for the Gotham chess to drop a video on this
HE SACRIFICED THE ROOKS
If that isn't the title I'm unsubbing from that wannabe GM's shenanigans.
He did the same variation few days ago ig
Robert and David are the best duo now
gotham chess lame lol
Gotham has a video about it from a previous game. Something like 2500 Elo loses in 7 moves. 2023
Fabi's smile always makes me smile. I don't know why but his happiness looks like pure joy and I love that for him
Yes
I feel like its because it shows us he may actually be human. He's always so serious and robot faced, but when he inevitably breaks, we can actually relate to him 😛
gay
Good words.
Do you get off on him watching him smile? Weirdo
I really enjoy both these players tremendously. Look at the quiet, quiet, but oh so satisfying but subtle grin on Fabi's face. Priceless.
Alireza disagrees. He said in the post-match interview that his smile did not feel subtle and quiet at all.
@@sciencecubicle That's nice considering how Alireza reacted with the Hikaru drama in the Bullet Chess tournament
Rez is such a little bitch. How could you like him. You must not know him at all
@@sciencecubiclethen alireza is a fcking baby. Youre allowed to smile when you win a game
@kurosakiichigo7475 and especially when you win this way
This is equivalent to the throbbing mate but for super gm’s
THROBBING!!
Robert deserves the Prophet title from this point on.
GP@@geoffreymak000
@@Em4gdn1m juicy
Fabi's happiness is so pure I can feel it through the screen.
It's not often that winning a game makes up for losing the match but this is an example where it is. No one's going to remember who won the match-up or the tournament but Fabiano slaughtering a super GM in 9 moves will be remembered for a long time!
We wil remember that ali won at the end of game🙄
Alireza casually almost 2900 rating, 110 rating above fabiano
nah, i will always remember who smoked who in armageddon
@@mavenofmacau6391 Nahhh 9 moves mate vs a super GM is immortalized for sure. An armageddon quarterfinals win? I'll bet you have better chance of remembering what you ate a week ago than Ali's win lmao.
@@RaizelLi armageddon game was actually a game. this was nothing
The best part is Fabi smiling for a full minute non stop. And managing to not choke on his drink.
Then got up to go laugh
@@mrpatzer probably laughed in most evil way
HE SACRIFICES, THE ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKS!
this one got me, well done
I heard people say Firouzja spent 2 and a half minutes on Bxh1, but the clock indicates it was more like 55 seconds. That's still more time for calculating than a purely impulsive decision.
It’s pretty shocking because I don’t know what he was calculating where he thought Fabiano would give up the rook. As David said, you should smell a rat when someone offers a whole rook like that.
This was bloody amazing. Great job to the commentators, made this moment even more epic.
Fabi had too much fun with this one 😂😂😂
alireza's disgusted face at 4:20 and fabi immediately afterwards cracking a smile just gets me somehow
Isn't this the famous game from abasov against brunello sabino?
Yeah
Yes, which was in turn based on an unplayed variation from Carl Schlechter vs Julius Perlis from 1911.
Brunello didn't take the rook (he played Nxc6 instead), which is still bad for black, but not nearly as bad.
@@Richard_Stroker Well yeah, Brunello saw the threat that Alireza missed
I remembered this game, but I didn't remember the players. Thanks 👍
I can watch this video over and over. The commentary is priceless making this game truly historic.
Man, Robert deserves a huge shoutout for this call. What a commentary!
I love the excitement in Roberts face and voice when alireza took the rook... He couldn't believe what he was witnessing...
The next time I lose in ten moves I'm going to say, "Well, at least I didn't lose in nine moves like Firouzja did!"
And that's why we recall the famous phrase “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
doomed*
@@fumuso if you say doomed you're only implying it's likely to repeat the past, but when you say condemned it's saying you are for sure sentenced to repeat the path. I think using the word 'condemned' is actually more appropriate for this quote, but I do know that the typical way is to use doomed instead.
@@fumuso That's the joke
@@snared_not true. Doom is a superlative, condemn isnt
Alirezja must be like “go ahead bro, i’m gonna call ur bluff”.. n Fabiano must be like “there was no bluff”.
Fabiano is like, but I’m not playing poker I’m playing chess lol.
5:45 FABI! Good of him to go off-screen to do his happy dance, and flex.
LEGENDARY!
fabi went from hanging rooks to sacrificing rooks real quick
Firouzja's face after Fabi's 2nd rook sacrifice...oh man...
I'm equally in awe of Hess for spotting it just as quickly
This is a trick from 100 years ago.
Alireza was pissed cuz fabi smiled and laughed after that trap worked. But I don't think fabi was necessarily laughing at Alireza. Its just an instinctive smile you get on your face when the trap you set actually worked.
I'm pretty sure they don't see each other.
@@notyourdad I think they do and can see each other.
It doesn’t matter,Alireza had the last laugh 😊
The players don't see each other.
anyone loving chess would have tremendous joy in his situation. well deserved, Fabi! 🖤🤍
"Oh no, I lost both rooks! Oh no...! Checkmate..." - Fabi Caruana
Funnily enough, this exact thing happened between Nijat Abasov and Sabino Brunello. Gotham Chess covered this in a video about a year ago called 2500 Elo, Lost in 7 moves. It's insane to see this happen again.
I thought Robert was narrating what was actually happening. To find out he actually predicted the entire game is incredible.
that cheeky smile from Fabi 😁
Fabis blunder in the fifth game gave Firo a sweet revenge 😂
what blunder
Fabi's laugh at the end costed him the match though. Firouzja, on the question of how he bounced back after such loss, mentioned in the interview that once he saw Fabi laughing, he got motivated more than ever to beat the guy and that's what happened.
lmao hes obviously just saying that because he didnt like fabi laughing.
Who actually believes things like that change a match outcome lmao
@@kurosakiichigo7475it does if you hate to lose more than you love to win
@@kurosakiichigo7475 Mindset is essential. I know for a fact such a thing could drive a person to try harder.
@@kurosakiichigo7475 he did get motivated and won the match bc of it. Fabi is a nice dude but his laugh came off condescending. Lmao.
@@playlikerorygolf609 dude, it was a genuine laugh not condescending.
He probably didn't even realize how giddy he got when the trap worked.
Fabi deserves such a fun win
I love how I just watched levy's video on "GM loses in 6 moves"
This is the same line that Abasov found against another GM a year ago and he won in just 7 moves. Crazy how even GM's fall for opening traps.
With 100% accuracy is crazyyy at this high level
What a series of moves, and great job by the commentators making it so engaging. this is exactly what we need in televised chess to make it interesting
wholesome but god tier commentary, the premonitions damn! 🔥
Winning with 100% and 2 brilliant moves in a RAPID match against a super gm is unseen. Bravo fabiano 🙂↕️
I’m not sure what’s more impressive the sacrifices, or the fact that Robert spotted it so quickly
David needs to take back that comment on Firouzia's 'poker face' - he was totally obvious to it!
Oops...and please no '"Fabi being disrespectful" nonsense. Genius!
Well Alireza did say seeing Fabi laugh motivated him more, and Fabi lost the match.
@@drdoom5499 Fabi won the match lol it literally shows the end of the game in this video...
@@aytyoutube-clashroyale2327 Fabi lost the match in the Armageddon. Don't you know the difference between a game and a match?
@@filipe10messiyou Mate, firstly, it's called a playoff. Secondly, you liked your own comment 🤣
@@aytyoutube-clashroyale2327 laughing when you are just factually incorrect. Ignorance is bliss.
Bro like this is Levy's most viwed short or even Insta reel how does Alireza not know that😭🙏
This is just like what happened in the Nijat Abasov game. It’s cool that this same tactic has come up in two separate games.
now firouzja knows how I feel when I fall for these traps😢
Spot-on commentary here - great stuff!
that game shows just how important development in the opening is
Robert spotted it fast and David made the finishing touch by hoping for it to go all the way right before Bxh1 happens.
new respect for Robert Hess.. and his reaction was so funny.. haha
Firouzja got humiliated so hard on this one.
This is why we play chess. To one day play an immortal game like this. The elation of winning like this must be the greatest thrill.
3:48 this is CRAZY
I don't know what's more impressive, the fact this actually played out or that Hess spotted it mere seconds after cxd5 was played
Very modest of David to include himself among the best players in the world. :)
Im a big Alirreza fan, but this was epic anyway. David Howell and Robert Hess are the best commentary pair out there. Their reactions, and Fabis smile - just priceless stuff. Happy Alireza won the match still. Will it be him against Magnus again. Anyway, fantastic content. Thanks guys.
this is why you watch your Levi Rizzman content
The smile in Fabiano make my day good 😎
love the commentary! 😂
Happy to finally enjoy and appreciate such videos! My chess level is way below this game but high enough to follow the commentaries and the astonishing game. Poor Alireza, that must have felt awful at his level
Levy grozman predicted the furure
This is a trap that a GM pulled in a classical game, GothamChess covered it.
This exact game happened between Nijat Abasvo VS Sabino Brunello a year ago. Gotham made a video on it
This is a famous pattern, it's much more a terrible firouzja blunder rather than fabi's brilliancy
If a GM leaves a rook hanging, I'd be having alarms going off in my head like crazy. I guess Firouzja thought Fabiano was betting on him smelling a non existent rat and letting him keep developing pieces, or something.
This video is also a great example of how useful it is to see the eval bar, even for GMs. The reason Robert found this tactic so quickly while Firoujza couldn't was mostly because the eval bar told him that Be4 is still good for white. Therefore, he figured white doesn't need to save the first rook, which allowed him to find the 2nd rook "sac" too.
This was also played by Nijat Abasov
Levi’s new post: Fabi!!! Fabi!!! Fabi!!
One of the craziest sequences I’ve personally witnessed
this is something we're gonna see in the chess books 50, 100 years later as a weird trap that worked once against a GM
old gotham chess video "gm lost in 7 moves"
I enjoyed this game "live", and the interview with Firouzja afterwards. Great kid, great player, and great game for Fabiano!
That was playing like Michail Tal 🤯
Incredible. The fact that Robert Hess predicted before the bishop had even moved makes him the real hero
Wow! I can't believe Hess found the winning tactic in a matter of seconds while commentating. Insane!
The fact the commentators saw the whole combination ahead of it happening is outrageous 😂😂😂
Agadmator also cover this, and it’s pretty hilarious 😂
''What an idiot, that guy sucks'' - me with a 500 rating
Sick tactic, 2 brilliant moves, 100% accuracy, won the game. Absolut perfect game.
”okay, let’s do the procedure”
The Cry of Robert Hess after taking the poisoned rook thats an experience of chess that never will be forgotten
GM Hess spotting that sequence so quickly! Incredible video from start to finish. C8=R# is legendary.
Thank you that even super GMs are only human in the end.
bro played with accuracy of 100%, bro is not afraid of stock fish but he is stockfish
how can a super gm like AF miss this but?
New title: "How to Make Fabiano Laugh"
OMFG, this is the best thing I think I have ever seen!! Drama? Who needs drama??? We're herre for the stand-up comedy!
Amazed how calm Fabi looks setting up the trap, I know I wouldn't look like that. Brilliant!
Firouja eating a booger at the end was the cherry on top, lmao
This is one that will make the rounds for a while. Alireza got his revenge tho.
Fabi chuckled at Alireza's blunder, thinking, 'I can't believe he fell for that trap 😂.' An absolute gold moment.
Amazing Poker Face from Fabiano before playing the moves. ❤❤❤
It happened again 💀💀💀
Smile on David's face when we was listening to Robert unfold the brilliancy is simply amazing.
brilliant commentators! huge props
Commentators are the real G😂
Fabi just pulled The Rozman
I swear this is known theory... How does this even happen
I just saw this variation in levy's video of abdusuttarov few days ago....😂❤
As a beginner can someone please explain this to me? I don't see how this is forced mate. What happens if you take on c6 with the bishop for example?
This game happened before Fabi knew it for sure
