My friend who's a category B chess player would remember the entire derivation for a fluid mechanics problem(which is 9 pages long) from what was written on the blackboard in class. Chess Grandmasters have a far deeper memory than you can imagine. If a category B player is this good with his memory, imagine a 2700 rated chess player.

You can argue there are better or greater players in chess, for instance Kasparov. But he hails from a nation where chess was already flourishing. On the contrary, Vishy was one man who made an entire country learn chess and follow his footsteps. Now that's called greatness. One person, uniting an entire country.

Yeah Annand isn't the literal best ever of course,but at worst hes what top 15 all time I mean for the whole world probably, not to mention his legacy in just India, hes in a good place guys an awesome grand master.I do find it surprising how youth seems to be an advantage even in chess, obviously it makes sense in physical sports but apparently in chess exceptions aside youth is 99 percent of the time an advantage, like Annand right now at age 50 is obviously without question still top top world level grand master elite can still hang with anyone in chess even now,and can still on any given day/tournament potentially beat just about anyone as well,but it does seem that he will never be as good as he was say at age 30-35 ya know, but you'd think in Chess that if not get better with age you'd at least not necessarily lose anything ya know, and yet apparently that is the case,Id have to assume its something to do with just aging process in general like maybe slower neurons firing in the brain/reduction in thinking speed/efficiency and etc,and of course you do gotta be in good physical condition in some ways as well like Carlsen for example has good mental and physical agility/stamina as well can play at a high level even after like a 7 hour game ya know, but anyways regardless even a 50 year old technically post peak/prime Annand is and will likely remain a top level elite world player and again can on any given day more then hang with/draw/beat just about anyone at any given tournament/event etc.and Legacy wise hel go down as obviously the best from India ever in history,and I think at worst in the whole world at worst top 15-20 all time.

It's pretty amazing how even Kramnik and Anand were throughout their careers. Their head-to-head record is 31 wins to 30 wins with 138 draws. Kramnik was champion from 2000 to 2007, Anand from 2007 to 2013, and both have a peak rating of 2817.

You want to be an artist- what a line Vishy. Gem of a man.

6:50 hearing him explain this super long line that he saw to get two connected passed pawns is insane. That sequence is so many moves. Ridiculous.

I don't understand many moves ..But I love watching him

He is a Gm in chess and in sarcasm too... "Discussing next few draws" 😂😂

Brilliant insights. The way the legend goes down the memory lane and discusses his games is incredible to watch. It's natural to remember one's own games at this level but to remember all those thought processes, and stories related to the game... hats off!

The Beliavsky part was my favourite ... he is a good story teller , I'll definately get that book

What an enjoyable interview i could hear vishy talk about his games for hours and hours, i can notice all his passion for chess when he talks.

Back here after his 2nd place performance at Zagreb GCT. His game against Nepo was extremely amazing. Even at 51, he moved to 5th in Blitz and fought against so many younger players.

6:15 Stockfish: wow!

How can you not love this guy.

I could listen to Anand talk about his games and his stories all day.

Beautiful video! Was wonderful to hear the thoughts of someone who has faced the best players from multiple generations.

There may be greater players like kasparov and carlsen but I don't think anyone will reach the legacy and popularity of Anand. Every quiz has a question about Anand. No chess player has that . Legend of all time , Vishy Anand

Amazing.... Sheer genius. Best Sportsman India has ever produced..... Happy Birthday Vishy ✌️✌️

Great job Sagar Shah. Most interviewers ask the same old questions and the viewers get nothing memorable. Your preparation was as impressive as Vishy's games.

Vishy vs Beliavsky - when Sagar mentioned none got it right, Vishy understood the thought process. If you check the Carlsen video, he exactly says so. They understand each other so well. :)

Vishy is a bigger icon than Tendulkar for me no contest . Although we have many Indian players now. No one has peaked as much as vishy . He is a legend not just in India but in countries like Russian Armenia etc .

I was standing in front of this board at the 2017 Sinquefield, the last game reviewed here. I'll never forget the buzz in the room that game created and the look on Vishy's face right after it was over.

Great interview of the legend Vishy who makes us so proud for his great decency, character and of course, genius. Nice to see interviewer also so knowledgeable and excited.

0:20 is that Wesley So and his mom in the background?

Vishy in his prime was supreme.

AMAZING interview !

Vishy is truly a class act. Great job, Sagar! Greetings from Norway!

I just wish they give him Bhatatratna as soon as they can #legend #vishy🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Now I'm forward to getting the new book they mentioned! There are many other candidates for great moves by Vishy. Off the top of my head, I enjoyed his Bxh7! against Karpov, which came after repositioning the bishop from from f3 via e2 to d3 only to sacrifice it immediately. It was a purely intuitive sac against Karpov, playing also against Karpov's time trouble. Another one was his counterintuitive Qb6! simply exchanging queens against Kamsky to initiate a positional crush. Then there is the beautiful queen sac against Joel Benjamin which was very instructive because he took an Ivanchuk novelty in the Catalan (an opening he never plays) and used it in a Sicilian Richter-Rauzer! Only Chucky besides Anand understood where Anand got his idea from.

Greatest interview of Anand sir.

A True Legend for Chess...Always admire you sir.

A god amongst men

Another excellent interview, thanks.

more than the games he played, i wonder how can he remember all the moves though it seems to be 25yrs ago.....How is that even possible ? .. :D #ThalaivaVishy Great...!

Proof that Computers killed creativity and romance in Chess Had the honour of meeting this great man twice and my friend got lucky and played him in a simul. I was jealous but glad that I got to play Leko for 6 games because I turned up early that day. Leko smashed me like a cockroach all 6 times...Incredible how they evaluate positions. That’s my story for the day 😁 Had the honour of getting my Chess board signed by Karpov, Leko, Anand, Xie Jun etc.

"Those days we played these moves on intuition. Happy times." Yes. Happy times. I wish I could live in those times and feel the things he is talking about. When it comes to everything not just chess.

Great interview!... Thanks!

A genius at Chess and an epitome of humility in his demeanor, Vishy Anand remains simply inimitable !! He has proven himself to be timeless as even now, he gives his opponent a run for their money.

Monsieur Vishy. Respect!

My top 10 games of Anand 1) Aronian Vs Anand 2013 2) Anand Vs Nepomniachtchi 2020 3) Anand Vs Lautier 1997 4) Karjakin Vs Anand 2006 5) Anand Vs Gelfand 2012 6) Ivanchuk Vs Anand 1992 7) Anand Vs Kasparov 1995 8) Anand Vs Caruana 2017 9) Kramnik Vs Anand 2008 10) Anand Vs Bologan 2003

Such a great Person, with very good Memory ...

amazing interview.

Thank you very much Chessbase India for this video and reminding Vishy about his amazing and glorious years! Yesterday I saw his interview where he was absolutely disappointed and was completely disheartened. Even Jenifer and Svidler felt the emotions and it also struck me quite badly! After watching this video I am really relieved and wish that the maestro of chess in India never retires!

wow ......after watching this.......i want to start plying chess again....Thank You Sagar.....and Many thanks to Vishy Sir.....

I've seen many GM's but the way Vishy talks about notations it's faster thn any other GM's, Kramnik also said that.

I keep on visiting this video in every 2 weeks

Love & respect for FWC GM V.Anand But I wish :: Someone could interview STOCKFISH , KOMODO , LEELA , Ethereal , Alpha Zero , etc as well I can imagine how esp. Stockfish & Komodo would be analysing those badass moves.....& Tactical sequences.....

I was playing chess just before watching this video. Can’t remember a single move.

Legend!!

He is the living legends.

it's just shocking to see how Magnus and Vishy think alike... first the understanding of the Ivanchuk game, Magnus understood the same concept which Vishy executed. Then finding the opponent of the beliavsky nadjorf game from the clues which Magnus tried the same, eliminating by seeing his nadjorf rivals. No wonder my Magnus thinks Vishy has an incredible natural understanding of the game.
