No One REALLY Understands This! || Gukesh vs Praggnanandhaa || Superbet Romania Chess Classic (2024)

Just for clarification, we study the end games after dinner, not before breakfast. Before breakfast we practice the openings.

It's been 2 3 years watching you. All my best wishes, brother. Watching our players seems so good. Cheers mate.

Take a shot (of water) every time Antonio says "opposition"

#suggestion: Hi Agad! not sure if you are aware, but Faustino Oro from Argentina is currently playing the "Cerrado IM de Barcelona" and just needs 1 point in the last 2 matches to get his last IM norm. Today, if he wins (or at least hold a draw and another one tomorrow) it will become the youngest IM player of history, but even if he doesn´t get the norm, he is the youngest player on reaching 2200, 2300, a NM title, an IM norm and also on reaching 3000 on lichess on rapid (I think - or bullet). Would be awesome if you can cover some of his games, i.e. yesterday he won a game where he was 100% accuracy on his firsts 21ish moves!!! and he didn´t finish 100% since he went for an end game where he can exchange quicker. It was round 6 against Alex, Villa Tornero - Thanks for your time and content, been following your channel for some years now. Cheers!

After following this channel for 5 years and following Magnus for 7 years , I realized nobody plays Catalan like Magnus Magnus quite often gives his Catalan bishop and attacks on queen side

Fascinating stuff with the kings wandering around at the end

Fortunate for Gukesh Pragg did not find the moves he needed to win this game reminded me of a game during I believe the candidates where it looked like Pragg had an advantage in the endgame I think it also was a 3 against 2 pawn endgame in which Gukesh was able to draw the game India should definitely be proud of these two great players

Yes the Catalan may explode to horrific complications and that's where I lose.

Hey Agadmator. This seems to be a very complex version of "Opposition". I would say it should be included in books that talk about opposition and Triangulation! As a very special case.... What do you think??

The quote is clearly a nod to the discussion Yasser had about the meaning of the word Initiative during the commentary for yesterdays games.

Suggestion Boris spassky vs Bobby Fischer 1992 Match

Wow! Thanks for the interesting game. It's hard to believe except we saw it.

Thanks for the commentary - snd all the others over many years. 5:57 "You don't have to think twice about before centralising your queen" - Gukesh apparently has one thought every six minutes 😄

11:14 so that h5 move right away, because first thought was opposition. I guess neither saw it because clocks were low and they were under a lot of stress, and that leads to errors. Another great video, and another great game.

Shocking how badly this endgame was played by both players.

49th viedo on Pragg One more game to make half century Pragg is star in this channel 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Your strategies are so simple yet effective, it's amazing🕶

that made my stomach upset that prag missed the win :(

Nice
