Something a lot of people don’t realize is that most older players, especially geniuses like Kasparov, don’t really lose much playing strength with age. What they lose is stamina. So in a single game, a great master from the past could hold his own against today’s champions, but after 50-60, it’s much harder for them to maintain the pace of a long match or tournament. Also, I wouldn’t read too much into Gary’s mannerisms. He has always been expressive, rolling his eyes, shaking his head and running his hands through his hair (back when he had hair). He probably felt that this was a pretty run-of-the-mill closed Benoni type position, the type he had played thousand times before. All he had to do was watch for tactics, exchange, and the draw was pretty certain.
Certainly there is some truth to this, but I still don't think it is very accurate. Players lose significant playing strenght as a whole with age, young Kasparov would absolutely dominate todays Kasparov even in blitz or bullet, where stamina isn't nearly as important.
@@sam2725 Agree, old Kasparov is much worse but a much worse Kasparov is still enough to get a draw off of Hikaru. Always nice to see an old dog doing well but explaining it away as some physical stamina thing is very untrue.
i mean yeah, at the end of the day its just a board game, if you really play and study chess, you will see that you can usually find the best move by just remaining calm and trusting your chess intuition! A GM is not a god like some people fear or think, they can all be defeated, patience, strategy, and calmness!
Chess is not just a game, it's a beautiful art of strategy and creativity that never fails to challenge and inspire us. Who else loves the thrill of the checkmate?
The great Chess legend Bobby Fischer believed it was more about memorization than actual creativity. He believed there wasn't much creativity involved in chess at the high level.

The reason a legend like Hikaru didn't see the opening with the queen is because Kasparov does what he does. He makes so many variety of moves using the entire board that even Hikaru was overwhelmed by having to scan the entire board for threats as opposed to being to focus on one area and missed a seemingly obvious opportunity.

@@justiniansu4642 Kasparov was the number one player in the world for nearly 20 years at that point.

It's ridiculous that people hold on to that draw vs Kasparov in Norway. You could do the same thing with Kasparov swindling Carlsen a little while ago in some online event too. That is perhaps more significant cause Carlsen was at his absolute peak around that time. But those are individual instances and it's unfair to compare the two like that.

He drew against Gary and has beaten magnus several times...hikaru is easily one of the best in the world right now but he loves streaming so he doesn't take it too serious
No Gary was almost defeated bye magnus when he was 12 but magnus was low on time and made a draw and in thenext game when he was 1§ kasparov won but magnus is still better than kasparov
The GM’s take it serious and find it painful when they have done it a million times. You are a bum who isn’t even close so relax and take the game of chess not so serious.
It is a fork. If you fork the queen and king of the opponent but you will be checked by that opponents piece behind the king after he moves his king it was still a fork.
A stage in chess when either white or black always wins.....no draw, nothing ....just one of em always wins... probably white....all the permutations and combinations.....how much ELO it will be?
Despite what the commentary says, it has nothing to do with immobilising the knight. Qb5 lets Hikaru’s queen infiltrate on c6 which forces a queen trade or else black loses their queen in the following sequence. The pawn then pushes and Kasparov has to sacrifice the knight to stop promotion and Hikaru is now up a piece.
I thinked about it too. The stacked pawns are weaker than 2 normal pawns. But idk. If you play a game both options are fine. You wont lose if you play the pawn take neither the trade. But trade is slighty better since if you take the pawn. Other pawn can push and black bishop can get activated(dont take my word tho im half decent)
I love how it seems like every time one of them makes a move the other is completely shocked to their core about it
That is rare, most of them usually agree on what are the best moves, sometimes one misses somthing but its rare.
They're living in an anime
Like poker
I would be if I was playing either of them 😂
Thats just psychological warfare and creating some doubt to the opponent.
Kasparov: still on the plane flying to hikaru
Kasparov: already starts shaking head
I just imagine kasparov shaking his head the whole flight, car ride, and flight back and even his sleep
It was actually pretty funny imagining that
Yes, he sees all the future life possibilities, and that gets him nervous
Even after all this time in retirment from chess, Kasparov is still Kasparov.
