And it was in this position that I stopped everything I was doing just to watch another Agadmator video. What's the idea behind this move? Well, the idea is quite an interesting one, so feel free to pause the video and guess the idea..

I have the theory Magnus is avoiding all common openings because he does not want to reveal his preparation for the WCC I believe he retains his title though

thanks for the video! nice one!

#suggestion Stumbling upon your videos is the reason I got back into chess. It would be helpful for those of learning, or are rusty, if when you post a game that reminds you of a study technique that helped you improve, that you shared it with us. You've mentioned that you don't study the openings, but love to analyze, so I've got that tip already :) You may have done this from time to time already, however, I just found your channel 10 days ago, so I haven't watched all the videos. I thank you for your channel!

Why would these GMs play the game out to the end? Don’t they usually see far ahead and realize it’s even. Of course most of us wouldn’t know and that’s where the superior video content comes in. Once again, thanks for education AND entertainment!

very nicely explans thanks thanks agadmator chedss channle you are the best genius

This last simetrical endgame position fits as an example of capablanca's chess book chess fundamental : king and pawn ending

10:56 the king can go forward and block advancing pawn. If king goes back obviously the pawn will have at least one square advantage.

Nice video, netherless would be good explaining how to draw with black if white does not stalemate (have a feeling only by reaching c8)

Can someone explain to me the situation at 13:54... If white king were to then move to h6, what options does the black have left? Just stumbled on this video somehow, and don't know pretty much anything about chess.

I am pretty sure Magnus doesn't want to reveal his preparation against Fabi's Petroff defense. Fabi is also in his best form. I think it's gonna be a hell of a match. I believe Ding Liren will the next champion.

I love a good " captures, captures" 7:14

Loved the endgame analysis. Have you ever considered doing some tutorial videos on the different chess openings? I would be really interested to learn the classical variations and the apparent weaknesses and strengths.

Very interesting, thank you

Congratulation, you are an excelent endgame player. he says this in every video :D

2:27 Why develop the knight to e2 instead of f3? It always confuses me when players develop knights to d2 or e2, and agad never mentions the reason, so I don't have that information available when I'm deciding where to develop my own knights to.

I believe svidler misplayed that endgame he should have took off for the other pawn at 13:44 and the Blick king will have to waste 2 moves to capture ur pawn, this will be enough headstart to capture the black pawn and also stop the black king from entering the position

Hello, I have a question. I know the very very basics of chess and I don't play it, but I enjoy watching high level chess and love watching your videos for the breakdown and other possibilities that could hav happened or why something didn't! But for my question, on the last move where they agreed to a draw, is there a rule or something about white moving their king to H6? Would black not lose the game since now they can't move?

Last move Svidler played kh6, then it was a stalemate and a draw😅, in the pgn in the description you wrote it down, but you missed it in the video. 😃

I think instead of pushing the pawn to h7 in the end game svidler could of started running to the other side to capture the A pawn just before magnus gets to arrive

Now THAT is an endgame.

13:09 If Black advances the pawn protecting it with the king, it's a queen vs pawn endgame=draw.

What do you mean, "it's the end-game; you have to use your King"? How does this rule work..? When is end-game determined?

Carlsen doesn't look too fresh this tournament, meanwhile Caruana was a beast in the olympiad. Looks a little worrying for his title.

That feel when any move but one leads to a draw and you choose the one that loses you the game. No wonder why Im losing every endgame with only pawns left on the board.

Only gonna watch one more at 4am .. “hello everyone”

Thanks it was a nail bite'er

searching for bobby fisher is an amazing movie, that last game move was 1000 iq

what is time control? and why is it after the 40th move?

I wasn't listening at 0:56 and immediately looked up after hearing "taking a shot" in a chess tournament because it sounded like quite the great time 🤣

I believe in "Searching for Bobby Fischer" the King also was in the same diagonal, with check

"..not really sure what she meant by that but.. apparently it was really crazy!" Is #agadmator the best or what? XD

I looked at the losing move long enough to figure out that white promotes first, then went for the "push the white king up against the wall" technique to force a draw. I would have been very very surprised if there had been a win for black, because of the positions of the kings being closer to the black pawns than the white pawns.

Can I have link to the Carlsens photo on the board

At 11:05 it is simply possible to capture both pawns with the king. And eventually force a win with superior material. The double first move with a pawn can simply be captured by king to g6 and then h6 or h5 depending on Carlsen's move. Did you miss that or am I missing something?

@goldenjackal9662

5 жыл бұрын

When you go to capture the h6 pawn then he plays g4 and you must capture with the bishop

Very2 beautifup game

Isn't king to H6 winning by stalemate? Why the draw?

On move 54 , Kf5 , what happens then? Seems like black does't have the time to capture h5 and go back to a8 !!! What's it that I missed ? :p

Subtitles are disturbing and unable to concentrate on the video. They are covering the white pieces

At the end of the game it could have been interesting to play Kf6 and not h7+, you gain one time but it's not winning because the black king can go to c8

I am worried that your right side obliques are getting much more work than your left side. Try some planks to even it up.
