Yasser, despite what he may say, was a skinny little wimp when it came to sports or self defense.

"I was so angry it cost me two minutes to calm down" The full two minutes!

"I havent recovered." So good!

Yasser seems very kind, but also very, very intense at times. I absolutely can imagine him being pushed over the edge and clocking Kasparov. You don't become #1 board for a chess power without being a ridiculously competitive person. Love the guy.

He expresses himself beautifully.

Ironically Yasser's worst moment is more about Kasparov behaving badly

Wonderful story! I can't help but picture Karpov and Gulko raising their heads and with a 'what-the-f...' look in their faces only to find Garry apologizing to Yasser just in time to avoid being square-punched in the jaw! LOL!

Yasser is such a great dude haha.

i get this angry every night on lichess

I was no fan of Kasparov and never will be. He always make fun of people who plays sidelines and beat him. If the opponent plays the mainline of course he beats them because his strength lies there (with Russian gms all helping him). He played such a bad manners to disturb the opponents so he could win on the board. These days people would complain to arbiter who can verify it with the camera and take some disciplinary action towards them. In my view he is not a chess legend. Just a chess bully! Luckily we got some good World Champions who are humble (Anand, Magnus) loved by almost all the opponents. :)

It seems all the funny disrespect stories are coming out since Hans Niemann is on the radar. Because all chess players know now there is always someone who had it worst.

Great Story Yasser

i mean, if you knocked over the board on 3 tables, isn't that an auto-loss? or at least give extra time to the other player lol

Who’s the female commentator?

If I was playing a guy and he did that I would end up ejected from the tourney. I would have also probably been banned from tourney play.

Never heard of Mr. Kasparov throwing such a temper tantrum (assuming the story as recounted is true). I would have thought that high level chess would have very strict enforcement against any such extreme behavior - it sounded wild. GK had to have been picking a fight for some reason. That it also had disturbing effects on players at adjacent boards is crazy. Maybe GK was drugged. Hard to believe that no physical altercations happened right then and there.

3:32 My thought as well. As horrendous as Kasparov's behavior was, Yasser had a clear and immediate attempt at recourse that he chose not to use. That's on him.

It's good to remember that back in his hayday, Kasparov got away with some extremely unsportsmanlike behaviour, just like when he cheated against Polgar. So anyone who accuses Magnus of being unprofessional in the Hans saga should find someone else as a shining example of everlasting perfect behaviour (hint: there are none).
