@@startupeco2257 Half true. Alireza down in time first, but he's much more comfortable with it since he know he's better and can play faster in tight time control. So i don't think Alireza is in real "time trouble" and Gukesh fall into his hand by allowing himself immersed and lost time trying hard to take advantage.

Peter Leko saw the checkmating pattern right away at 8:50. He may be retired but still calculates like an engine. That knight jumping around was effectively what we got, just with the rooks in a different position.

@@WhoTookQuwhu The seniors he played in France to qualify are frequent members of closed grandmaster norm tournaments in Eastern Europe, where they are obviously paid off to lose games, which is something Nepomniachtchi and other grandmasters called out for years. I am rated 2200 FIDE unlike you and even I could buy myself a grandmaster title for 20.000 bucks very easily as I live in Slovenia. Magnus was privately coaching Praggnanandhaa and Gukesh in Norway. He stated multiple times that while Alireza is the most talented of his generation, he certainly doesn't have a comparable work ethic like Keymer, Abdusattorov, Gukesh, and so on. Alireza is literally a fashion designer and retired chess prodigy, however more importantly, an insecure brat who doesn't want to miss out on anything even though he puts in no effort. Remember the last Candidates? Alireza was behaving like a child, played 100 bullet games at midnight, and lost the next few games in the event. Remember the 2019 Blitz WCC in which Alireza accused Magnus of cursing him in Norwegian, causing him to lose the game even though he threw several pieces of the board, then filing a complaint that looked like a toddler wrote it about a very well-known tournament rule? I do, I met Alireza in Madrid, and unlike literally any other Candidate, he never spoke even one coherent sentence to a fan or spectator. Hikaru, deserving his spot in 2022 like four times more than Alireza, took two photos with me and didn't mind talking for a few minutes. I don't think Wesley So would be such a disappointment as Alireza is at the Candidates now.

Blitzkrieg from Alireza, very entertaining to watch! Also, Robert is a great commentator during time pressure!

Gukesh should have known better that time scramble with Alireza is a bad Idea.

I’m a huge Alireza fan and I watched it live, getting absolutely excited at the end. Then I watched the last few minutes of the match again this morning and when I saw Gukesh’s reaction at the end, I had tears in my eyes. Such a gentleman, and such a big heartbreak for him. I hope he’ll make it up in the second half of the tournament.

@IAyala1010

Ай бұрын

Tilting is the worst attribute of any competitive career. But so relatable. Godspeed Nepo.

What I hadn't realized until now, perhaps because classical chess without a 30 second increment is relatively rare, is that FIDE rule 8.4 says that if players have less than 5 minutes left without 30+ second incremenet they no longer need to record moves. This seems to bring into question why players record moves at all: I thought the point was to be able to determine when there's a 3-time repetition, or the 50 move rule should be invoked. Clearly the bonus time is awarded based on the clock, not the score sheets.

The bad thing about being in a time scramble like that before making time control is that the timer would reset after move 40 and if you made mistakes, your opponent will eventually have enough time to find it.

Exactly. It favours people who play for boring draws. Whatever people say about Alireza, his chess is never boring. Like Giri said about him, when you're playing Alireza you don't need to try to create chances, Alireza will always play moves that aren't boring (paraphrasing)

Gukesh should learn to handle stress. He always screws up under stress.

Oh, I see it now 👀

Same thing happens in tata steeles against wei yi. Gukesh cracks with limited time. Hope he bounces back.

Gukesh should have played b6. Tough loss.

Alireza not resigned a high level move.

bad blunders happen in time trouble 9:34 Too bad Gukesh he did not choose check Leko suggested before 1...Rd2 +2. Kg1 b5 3.Rf3 Kg8 and all of a sudden white has huge problems with connected black passers and quite vulnerable king . White has to defend now Like mr .Howell always says : check your checks and captures first. Black did not have good captures at 9:34, but had life saving check..

Alirezas such a gentlemen I respect him as a man he has good style, and is humble I respect that very mature also so is Gukesh their great I respect both
