this was the last round in the tournament and the players are not seem to ve tired. brilliant players.

Simply wonderful. Thanks so much for posting.

Note the one time Svidler makes a move, his piece falls over, and he hits the clock *before* he adjusts the board. This happens all the time in Blitz, but here Svidler throws up an apologetic hand in recognition of the breach of etiquette. I love how Svidler hides his face behind his hand as soon as he is losing.

Magnificent game! Well filmed, you can see everything that's going on. Thanks a lot for the post! :-)

great video

Cool how they talked it out at the end, no bad blood or anything

i love how that dude just stands right in front of the karpov/grischuks board at the end, completely oblivious...

That`s the typical Svidler mood when he plays; usually the players analyse after the game.

Today Magnus swept the floor with Karjakin with black pieces. Impressive to bounce back so quickly after a big loss.

amazing.

@Volumep Off course age is important. Like in anything else, you gain experience the more you play. As you play the more you pick up and learn, both with your chess game and mental game. Magnus Carlsen is alot better chess player at 18 than when he was 16. He will also be better suited and probably master the game even better when he is 21. Age is definately a factor.

javilack, the time controls for this year's WBC are 3' + 2" instead of 5' flat. Not sure if the players voted on it or not, but it's a much superior rule that eliminates the debasing final-seconds time scramble. Remember Krush flagging in the US Ch. blitz playoff when she enjoyed a time advantage of seven seconds to two? I don't blame her for being pissed. These guys, though, move very precisely and respectfully, and that continues til the final seconds.

@adhdboy699 the time controls are: you are controlled by the time you live in. it is out of your control to live in a different time. if you cannot make anything happen in this time, then you have no self-control over activities that distract you from making things happen now.

Well done, Carlsen ! Very good ending !

Carlsen wins by 3 points ahead of World Champion Anand.Reminds me of Fischers dominating performance in the 1970 Blitz event.

Awsome! Thanks for posting.. You think Magnus Carlsen can win this? Dude isnt more than 18 years old.. Remarkable!

@Fupper16 If black takes with the queen, white can take the pawn on d3, and if black takes with the pawn on g7 instead of the queen, there is no king protection anymore.

@bajen3 Yes, that's Karpov... Man, was he good! He was a world champion! Also, he's running for FIDE president 2010.

I love the way Carlsen always looks so totally bored at the introductions and how he always playes around with the taking chess bits at the side of the bored lol Carlsen rules

@MagicianPugh Yes

You can see a player who was good in the 1980's. Hes name is Karpov

muito bom

А что произошло у Магнуса и Свидлера я так и не понял. Объясните если кто понял.

dont worry they coming i am working on them.

Its just a sign that he didnt resign but just kicked his king accidentally ...

Magnus can win anything :)

I don't get why magnus didn't play a6 instead of b5 in the last few moves..he just complicated things more

d4 was probably wrong?!

4:19 Illegal move? He didn't queen his pawn.

gracias tu si sabes como grabar partidas de ajedrez

lol at the glare off the chess boards xD Might as well be playing on floodlights.

despues svidler se tenia que meter justo en medio para que no podamos ver la partida de karpov jajajaj

ur a legend

Magnus Won?

Click here to bypass the initial irrelevant comments -----> 1:12

I thought it was funny at the end when Svidler got in the way and the camera man just has a quick zoom in on his arse!

at 6:37 why not Kf6?

sorry i might be drunk when i wrote this

g5 looked desperate, and the Rb8 chasing the bishop only to attack it with Ra8 is a waste of a move. Why not let Carlsen take on a6 and play an attacking move like f5?

JESUS H!!! These guys have Ph.D.'s in chess. I'm still working on my Bachelors. DAMN!

Despite seeming bold, I must say these guys play endgames quite poorly. For example, at 7:28 Carlsen plays Kb6, letting the black's King reach the pawns and stop them, instead of playing h5 which wins easily. He is won anyway, but thanks to the subtlety that his King prevents black's Bishop from getting to e4 stopping the h pawn. Otherwise Svidler would have been able to capture on a5 and stop the h pawn on h7. I don't think Magnus had seen all this, though.

@niconude In chess age isn't important.

A6 doesn't win run it through an engine

@eeeeeriickkkkk a6 white win

@adhdboy699 3+2

annoying how so many of these blitz videos have a full minute of nothing at the beginning
