He did once. He missed one move and resigned thinking he is dead lose, while he was like plus 3 if he found out that one bishop move other moves just loses the game terribly.

imagine being a happy 2090 20-years old non titled player, happy with your tournement performance to find yourself sitting against Ivanchuk in the final round

I would be thrilled! Chances to play a serious classical game against a legend, 1 on 1, not some simul thing, when you're 2000-some are extremely rare.

There is a club of players such as Ivanchuk, dubov, nezhmetdinov and of course Tal that are just so entertaining to watch

Playing against non other than Vasyl Ivanchuk, this tournament was worth it for Oscar Pollack! 😁

Another Great coverage by Agadmator!! Loved it!!

thank you!!!

This man is just brilliant, Kudos Sir 🙏

Coolly castling after sac-ing the rook... Legend!

Neat game. Thanks for another nice video. All the best from the US!

Ivanchuck making everyone’s day as usual.

Thanks for finally mentioning his origin in the header!

Now that's an elegant game. Ivanchuk is a fun player to watch, even though he won't go down in history as one of the top dog players of his era I think he will go down in history as one of the most creative and exciting super strong players of his day.

As you say Chucky wins again what a great player and they're both courageous you know because that's such a high-level of chess you know. It's like from my point of view I'm like why didn't he take that pawn there's an intermezzo like times three or something it's unbelievable

On move 22, couldn't white have played Bg5?

Bringing out the queen too early and isolating it on the far side of the board away from your own king is a very bad idea. And yet again a game ended with a player who never got one of his rooks into the game.

the French defense being french

I think chuky was just trying to be a good senior encouraging the new generation. I’m sure he could’ve played to a draw but she did find that knight move.😅

Poor 20 year old. He got the scare of his lifetime!

When you see that Ivanchuk gave you 2 pawns (i.e., not because of some brilliant tactics or some strong attack from your side), you know it's time to resign.

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Resigned? You mean accepted a draw right?

6:15 here's something that eric rosen would call a "funny line" why does black "throw away" the f-pawn ?? why not just ... Rg8 ? Q g7 !!

5th: Hans Niemann = next Bobby Fischer - Wesley So = current Bobby Fischer - Bobby Fischer's ghost = old Bobby Fischer - Beth Harmon = Bobby Fischer in another universe Each of these 4 'is a prodigy, had a rather dark childhood and is American'. Speaking of Wesley So Hikaru's (the rapid WFRCC) wife almost beat Wesley So's (the classical WFRCC) girlfriend! 2023 USCC - Indeed Carissa Yip won and thanked Wesley So as her secret second in the 2023 USCC closing ceremony speech. But in Carissa vs Atousa, Carissa was losing most of the game. Atousa just blundered in the end. move 54 for black is an 8-move equality puzzle it's so sharp [Variant "From Position"] [FEN "1Q5k/3r1rn1/p3N3/Pp1p2P1/1q2p3/1B2R2P/5P2/6K1 b"] 1...

I play with the French often. Isn't there a famous chess quote stating how they would never play the French because it is so boring? I forgot who said that.

Antonio, wouldn't a fairer but less spectacular title be "Ivanchuk demolishes a much lower graded player". The French has been trusted by top grandmasters for a hundred years. The great Ivanchuk would demolish him whatever he played.

No, not these days. With young players player well above their rating, even GMs have to remain steadfast. A win is not guaranteed.

4th: What's it like in a parallel universe where 9LX is standard chess, and Garry really is Garry chess? 1 - People are praising Wesley So, Ian Nepomniachtchi, Bobby Fischer & Anatoly Karpov. Agadmator & Levy are talking about Wesley & Nepo all day long. 2 - Garry really is Garry chess here. Switch Bobby & Garry dates of birth. (Bobby's last name here is probably Nemenyi.) Meanwhile Garry Kasparov invented something strange called 'chess1' aka 'Kasparov Deterministic' where you have only 1 SP. Garry quits the 1975 classical WCC Vs Anatoly Karpov, is arrested in Russia (instead of Japan), immigrates to Iceland and dies in 2008. 1975 is not a big loss. In fact, it's better because Bobby Fischer takes over. 1978 is Bobby vs Anatoly match of the century in Baguio, the Philippines! Idk what happens in 1981, but then 1984 Eugene Torre wins the candidates and faces Anatoly/Bobby! In 1976, I guess Eugene still beats Anatoly. Either Anatoly or Bobby. (Trivia: In our world, Eugene almost beat Bobby in 1992.) 3 - Bobby is still alive in 2024. Bobby, Anatoly, Sergey Karjakin, Wesley, Nepo are on Lex Fridman's podcast while Magnus, Garry & Hikaru aren't. 4 - In the 2019 inaugural world Kasparov Deterministic chess championship (WKDCC), Magnus beats Wesley in 3 classical chess1 games in a row in but no one cares. Fabi is still the top 4 in the 2019 world chess1 championship but the top3 is now Liren. Nepo has never played a chess1 game, just as in our world Liren has never played a recorded 9LX game before 2024Feb. 5 - Wesley/Nepo doesn't quit the 2023 classical WCC. Nepo/Wesley wins 2022 candidates and no one cares about Liren. Wesley So Vs Ian Nepomniachtchi is the biggest rivalry in chess, far exceeding as well as succeeding the next biggest rivalry Bobby Fischer vs Anatoly Karpov, like Better Call Saul to Breaking Bad. Wesley, & Nepo are both considered GOATs along with Bobby & Anatoly. There's no distinction between GOAT & MTOAT. There's a slight bias towards Wesley because Wesley is Bobby's nephew. 6 - Chess' popularity in the Philippines & Norway are inverted. 6a In our world, Bobby had radio interviews in the Philippines. In this world, Garry has radio interviews in Norway. 6b Then Prospero Pichay Jr is imprisoned and the Philippine chess federation is free from corruption. But Wesley is still American. Huhuhu. Oh, in this reality, Magnus' parents are evil and then Magnus gets adopted by religious parents who are friends of Garry, so it's like Magnus is Garry's nephew. The 2019 WKDCC is still like a pseudo - Bobby vs Garry, and it's billed as battle of thei nephews. 7 - But still no one actually really cares about chess1 because no one wants to have a headache over studying the same boring SP again and again. Also its top players Magnus & Garry are still cheaters. But well ok maybe in rapid & blitz chess1 is picking up. (Same as our world. Fiiiine Magnus is right about keeping regular chess for rapid & blitz.) So there's still a 2022 rapid world chess1 championship, half a century after the 1972 REGULAR match of the century. This time Hans Niemann wins beating Hikaru Nakamura on tiebreaks. This time Hikaru accuses Hans, but Hans still sues both Hikaru & Magnus. Ches***m is not sued and is just as good as lichess. Hans is still considered the next Bobby Fischer / Anatoly Karpov while Wesley & Nepo are still considered the current Bobby / Anatoly. 8 - In 2024Feb, FIDE still cancel their 2024 WKDCC, but Wesley & Nepo host a rapid chess1 championship but don't invite Magnus & Liren. Hans isn't a cheater but has still has beef with St Louis Chess Club and so doesn't play that due to scheduling conflicts, but Magnus & Hans are still going to eventually defend the, resp, classical & rapid world chess1 championships. 9 - In general, chess doesn't have that many cheaters, cheating incidents, baseless accusations, etc and has very little corruption, discrimination, treason, politics, etc. FIDE is hailed as 1 of the cleanest sports/gaming organisations. Chess is an olympic sport. Bobby/Anatoly are FIDE officials. 10 - Tiebreaks are settled by armageddon w/ auction rather than lower time controls, so Sergey & Fabi still lose to Wesley/Nepo in resp 2016 & 2018. But no one calls for change of tiebreaks to rapid time controls. Lol. Also, pre-arranged draws are so rare. 11 - Sergey isn't banned because Sergey only privately supports Putin because chess doesn't make people go insane unless they the players want to stick to 1 SP only, like Garry. 12 - Actually here, Bobby has very neutral feminist enlightened political views and is a true patriotic Jew & American ( in politics in addition to still being such a patriot in chess ) while respectfully criticising both US & Israel along side condemning Osama bin Laden / Al-Qaeda & Ismail Haniyeh / Hamas. So Bobby is still against Iraq invasion. 13 - Most importantly, no one cares about Garry, Magnus, Hikaru or Liren. Specifically, in this world, they care less about them as compared to Wesley, Nepo, Bobby & Anatoly in our world. 14 - Paradise. --- Ok back to reality: --- PLEASE agad it's been 4 months! 2023 USCC - Atousa almost beat Carissa Yip, the eventual winner! Carissa was losing most of the game. Atousa just blundered in the end. It's Hikaru's (rapid WFRCC) WIFE vs Wesley's (classical WFRCC) GIRLFRIEND. #suggestion #womeninchess #uschesschamps #uschess #uschesschamp #uscc

This game reinforces my general impression of French defense as being unplayable at top level despite its rich history. e6 opening move just hampers queen’s bishop development, unlike Caro-Kann’s c6.
