My name is Greg Mustreader, I am a Candidate Master in chess, an entrepreneur and host of several podcasts.
In this channel, I interview top chess players (my guests include Nepo, Fabi, Aronian, Dubov and many others - the unreleased podcasts will be published in January-February), play against chess AIs, analyze the most interesting chess games and combinations of today and of the past, as well as show you my path in chess and the way I work on my chess improvement (including recaps from the tournaments I play).
I live in Almaty, Kazakhstan and travel the world extensively (been to 50 countries). I'm 30 years old, I have a girlfriend, two dogs and two cats. I speak English, Russian, German, and a bit of French and Chinese.

Do you agree with me? Who do you think will be the next World Champ: Gukesh or Ding? And who will be the one after that?

unless Ding quits chess before the World championship, he is losing. Ding ain't fit sadly. I really like Ding as a person tbh. I mean who won't. Nepo lost his world championship match cause he seemed to take Ding pretty lightly. He was ahead twice in the match and in both times Ding came back. The Nepo we see in Candidates never does that. Plus if you go back and see Nepo's body language back then he was a little snobby underestimating Ding since winning the Candidates back then by a mammoth margin of 1.5 points. Its like Nodirbek did in Prague (1.5 margin but not the snobbybpart) and everyone was telling Nodirbek missed out on the Candidates. But Nodirbek and Guki alongwith Giri and Wei Li were joint first in the Tata Steel after Wei Li clinched it in the Tie breaks beating Nodirbek and Guki (who beat Giri) just before the Prague masters. If you observe Guki, he never underestimates his opponent unlike Nepo has a habit of doing. Caruana, Hikaru and Carlsen all have a habit of underestimating their opponents, which Gukesh never does. He respects all opponents and fears probably only Carlsen (I mean who doesn't fear Carlsen). That's why Guki will win unless Ding forfeits and Hikaru and Guki has to fight it out.

I have a slightly different take on this. If in 6 month time Ding regains his health physically and mentally he won't be a cakewalk as some are suggesting. It will be one hell of a fight. I will watch Ding closely in upcoming Norway masters esp how he tackles Carlsen.

Gukesh
Already predicted the winner, Gukesh was so good this tournament, btw cute kitten 😁❤
Loving the content on this channel! What a welcome addition to the chess podcasting scene you are! Your English is fantastic, by the way. I agree with everything you say in this video. The Fabi/Nepo exchange was absolutely heartbreaking. Like watching two samurai warriors strike each other down at the exact same moment with swords. What pathos! Though my respect for those gentlemen couldn’t be higher, one senses their time in the sun is over, and that the new generation has arrived in force. A fascinating era in the chess world has begun.
"Im sorry" . "No its my fault" 😢 ohh man, what a heartbreaking scene that was even for me who is an Indian and supportive of Gukesh
I told you 😅 Congratulations Gukesh ❤
If Gukesh is this good at 17, imagine him at 30

I doubt it. He will slowly start focussing on Rapid and Blitz and may lose a bit of rating here and there. He is a human being plus a kid. As a society we must protect him by not hyping him much. Last year after he crossed 2750 folks hyped him and he lost about 25-30 elos in Sinqlefield Cup and everyone started telling him off. People are calling Arjun of farming when all he is doing is trying to play tournaments. Let's protect all these kids, Nodirbek, Arjun, Guki Pragg so that they don't lose focus and inspire us all in the future.

Yeah, but chess is too competitive these days. I am a big fan of Gukesh and Arjun Erigaisi but it is very hard to say which star 🌟 shines brighter and when it shines brighter. Just remember the the vertical rise of Firoujza after he crossed 2600.

True, Ding may get back his old form in this meantime and then he is a difficult bone to chew, if you are not careful your throat might fail to take breath
I agree with everything you said. Especially about arjun . Where top players don't play open due to risk of losing rating. Whereas Arjun is not only playing them but also gaining ratings. Crazy guy!!. Just one thing that I disagree is that I think 2026 world Championship match will be held between Gukesh and Arjun.
man kitten is bonkers❤❤❤❤❤
It’s Arjun Erigaisi time. He should reach next level with his exceptional talent.
How cute is the CAT
“His childhood dream” and he’s still a child 🔥🔥
Beautiful upload on a interesting topic. No guesswork , all evidence based. You made my day ,so thanks. I also agree with you Gukesh 's play in the 2nd half,was by a distance, the highest level achieved by any player in the tournament right after that unfortunate loss to Firouja. Carlsen too might have found him hard nut to crack. Ding Liren will have a terrible fight on his hand defending his title in 6 months time.
Arjun is better person to look out for than Abdul Sattarov
I was expecting more fire works from Prag, but spot on about Arjun Erigaisi. he narrowly missed candidates, with Prag in w.c and to Gukesh in fide circuit. It seems like atleast some of them are going to be consitantly above 2750, or may even reach 2800. Gukesh certainly energised the young lot. My next candidates includes Nodirbek, Arjun,Prag again. The other 5 could be the mix of old guards, middle and new guys. players like Wei yi, Vidit, Vincent, Parham, le quang liem, may also have a chance along side the old guard. But then 2 years is a long time
Absolutely enjoyed your take on the emerging players, who will usher in a new and exciting era in chess. Also love the cat !
This video is the most complete overview of gukesvs win & reasons behind it. Wow. & it's better than Sagar's previous videos which is like winning an award because he is literally the best chess youtubers when it comes to coverage. Wow 👏❤️ not only subscribed but glad i found you. 👏🙌
Did he just sleep on your shoulder? 😂 ❤ You should rename him mittens 😉
Nice commentary on the young conquerors.
Great summary, Happy it has reached Chess world 🎉
Gukesh vs Nodirbek World Championship This is what the beautiful game deserves
I love your analysis again. Nodirbek Abdusattorov is one of my star too and under the guidance of Kasimdzhanov we can be sure that he'll be one of those we'll have to look at. There is Essipenko too that i love despite the fact that we don't see him as often since the conflict. In one of the future candidates tournament we are gonna see Gukesh, Prag, Abdusattorov, Keymer, Firouzja, Essipenko, the phenomon Abhimanyu Mishra (15 years old) who won againts Ivanchuk and i put an empty space for the 8th candidate ... There's so many young monster that we don't know yet. Kitty is cute, however i would like to see the bigger cats that were on the last video.

Hi there, cute kitten! By the way, in your last video predicting the results of the candidates you told us that we could come here as say: "I told you so" in case you were wrong. So, well: I told you so. I do agree with your prediction about Abusatorov though.

Match between Fabi and Nepo was like them making draw was like surrendering chess to the next generations which both of them didn't wanted to do. I guess Nepo would have been much happier if Fabi won. But still its Fabi's fault he played very bad chess there can't win that position being a Super top player.

I wouldnt call it new era as long as Magnus is playing.
Gukesh D wants to become the king of pirates I mean the king of chess players
Let him become champion first, then proclaim a new era.

I won't say Guki played the best chess but rather he played the most solid. I think Nakamura had some beautiful games which he won and loss too. Firoujza's game with Nepo was a brilliant one by Alireza. And I think the best match of the tournament was between Nepo and Fabi, the last match of the tournament. The longest match of this Candidates and that King to a2 move that Fabi missed. Agadmator said it right. It was a 3000 elo move. I think the top seeds didn't anticipate that someone other than them can get +4 in this tournament. Nepo and Fabi didnt push enough with Abasov (Fabi drew with Black and same was Nepo) and same against VD. Naka lost to VD twice which definitely affected his chances even after he picked up pace in the second half. What Guki did in this tournament is what Nodirbek (in both Tata Steel and Prague) or even Carlsen does in these type tournaments, beat the comparatively weaker opponents with any colour and draw out the stronger ones. Giri and Pragg over does this. But Guki did it absolute correctly.
In between pragg and gukesh we are forgetting arjun. He is barley getting support from the state government. Arjun needs more support

Keep your feet on the ground young Greg. There's an ocean of unknowns between what is n what will be.To forecast the demise of the 'older gen' is to come in your pants. Totally premature. Predicting is nothing more than 'a parlour game'. And as in all gambling "you win some but you lose more often". Assume at your peril. All the best🎉

With the social media distraction gukesh will lose with Ding liren in November ..because of his social media distraction ....
New era has not begun ..it will if he becomes the world champion in November.. but he and his father and team is getting carried away on social media ..by sagar shah and chessbase India..story may be sorry in November..sagar shah is finding a girlfriend for gukesh on social media ..is it true ..
What I hope is that chess seriously gaines in popularity because... The world... Or should I say the western world is getting more moronic year after year I feel. People have to learn to use their brains again.

The deluded arrogance that's developed from India largely copies the US.
Sorry but the world championship is not really a WC. It is an asterisk event. Edit: it’s really unfortunate to not have Magnus back at this stage because until he reliably loses tournaments to these players, it will rightly be concluded to be the second best player championship.

These young guys will surpass Magnus. That's how it has been all through history. On the world championship - it has been the most prestigious title in chess, and Magnus chose not to compete. The game is bigger than any one person. If you do not play you don't get the title. I feel Magnus is doing what some boxers do - get to the top and try not to fight any new commers. I am glad none of the old guys won. The youngsters will get stronger, and eventually Magnus will not have an option but to play.
