To anyone who doesn't get it - the kid had to take white rook but had only one second remaining at his clock, at first he took the rook but didn't put his rook in the right square ( here e8 instead of d8, because he probably went really fast ), his opponent call the arbiter and claim illegal move. Then the move has to be played again, the player playing white starts the clock and the kid loses on time, they get up from the board but then the arbiter says that he was the one supposed to start the clock, so they sit back and replay the move again ! except this time the kid makes the move with two hand, which is also illegal ( probably cause he would lose on time making it with one hand only ) at first the arbiter just wants to give the kid a warning, but his opponent insist that he has to make the move with one hand. Finally, they replay the move one last time, and the kid loses on time, not managing to capturing the rook with one second. Not perfect english, hope everyone got it !
Thank you✌️
it was actually good summery
Just a small correction the cheating kid is the one who complained to the Arbiter that he was supposed to hit the clock and then the arbiter lied to the other opponent saying he told them he was supposed to hit the clock when the f****** idiot already walked away from the board. Corruption at its best the Arbiter probably wants to undermine the clock cuz he feels Blitz isn't real chest like classical is and the kid is f****** Street Hustler with his sleight of hand grabbing his opponent rook and putting his on a more advantageous Square.
Kid should have stood his ground on having the warning administered. Appears he was bullied, as were the arbiters.
Kid be like: .. Okay this is how flagging works
Sometimes I feel like chess players are trying to make any social interaction as awkward as possible.
Right you are!
its just bound to be awkward, they are awkward, they have to talk in whispers, they are mad at wood pieces etc xd
They don't have to try.
When the streets come to live chess tournaments, I'll begin watching. I want to see some smack talk and some mental games. Not some ASMR boolshyt.
it's even funnier than that, they are doing it without even trying
The player that complained about the young boy playing with one hand and pressing the clock with the other is correct. This is a very clear rule and it is part of competitive chess.
he still comes off as an asshole.
True, yet - it also is illegal to start the clock on your own, and just like an illegal move the opponent get's additional time. Problem would have been solved. Poor handling of the situation when a kid is involved. White seems like a bully.
I agree you can not use two hands, the hand you use to move or take the piece is the hand you must use to hit the clock with!
And then they laughed when the kid lost, what a couple of buffoons.
@@waschkarte3989 White is not a bully. They had reached a position where Black had one second on his clock and it was his turn.
On this turn, he has to make his move completely with all pieces in their proper spots, and press the clock, and do it all with one hand only. The boy didn't do that task. The first time he tried it (in the original game), he didn't place the pieces in the right spots. The second time he tried it, he used two hands instead of one, to save precious time. When he was finally asked to do it with one hand and do it right, he knocked pieces over. All this demonstrates that he should've rightly lost on time in the original game.
If you're down to one second in your game, you have to deal with that first. You don't get a pass.
All White was trying to do was recreate the original situation exactly, down to its last detail. That's only fair.
The arbiter stands there like a doofus for 30 seconds and watches as they reset the pieces before he says, “I was supposed to start the clock.”
this is the real BAD THING of this video
It's amazing that the players remembered the right position of every piece when they were asked to re-do it.
That's pretty standard for decent players, and definitely at this level
That’s what I said. I was like, “now they have to stop the footage to see a screen capture of the board…” nope! Lmao!
Ultimately, it's for the arbiter(s) to ensure the position is reset correctly, not the players.
1800fide here. Can recall entire games from memory that I have in 90+30 format no problem, mention to mention a specific position like that not a minute later. It’s really not an issue once you get to be moderately good at chess and the time control is long / match is important
@@technoskin3962 I agree somewhat, but it's very hard for me to remember entire positions and games because I lack photographic memory and even may suffer from aphantasia. That said, thanks to the board notation, I have used the letters and numbers to play entire blindfold games and win against weaker opponents that were looking at the board and pieces; however, it is a serious mental chore for me every time, and remembering the entire game I think I've only done a couple of times. Do you have photographic memory for that to be easier for you, or do you use the same method as me?
2:19 - that's probably the most intense SHH I've ever seen in my life. The eyes man...
Yeah right 😂
Even I quit talking after that shhhh.
@@Harvestersz every human would follow his orders christ alive
Dylan Tobak would be impressed by that shush
Yes even Dr. Evil would have been impressed by that shhh!
So much tension built up then it ends like a comedy movie at 4:30 , even the arbiters couldn’t help but laugh.
Kkk lol.i really laughed hard at that
Karma is a bitch
it's not funny though. the whole incident was pure torture for both players. only fun had the arbiters.
@@akawojo It is quite funny actually - an insufferable and dishonest kid gets taught a lesson early in life. Better know what karma is sooner rather than later.
hahahahahahahhahah
If someone make a movie about chess in future, this scene should be included in it for comic relief...
The guy on the left is Kovalev who waited Magnus for 7 minutes to come to the board))
2:30 of playing time
And got wrecked, karma
This isnt that guy who broke Niemman's King?
@@MeetSnorto why it's karma? He also asked the arbiter to wait, but they didn't accept
@@PierReVesper And they started the clock because MC didnt arrive in time (maybe waited 5min, i dont know what are the rules), so not only waiting 2min
The kid knocking down the pieces at the end is comedy gold.
absolutely priceless LOL
Plus this comment is on point! (and made me lol)
Timestamp??
@@pratickbhowmick6409 4:28
It was literally the perfect end to all the strangeness.
If you leave yourself with only one second to make a move, then this sort of scenario can easily happen. Bizarre things become the norm in a time scramble. I watched a game where a player had a few seconds to make the time control. He picked up his rook, and swung it over to the other side of the board, and it slipped out of his hand onto the floor. He picked it up just in time, and put in onto an adjacent square than he'd intended, which was a game losing move. Use your time wisely.
excelente explicación
It blitz you don't get more time. So the situation is different. I look at the kid's face and it seems to be that he knew he lost, he was ready to get ready for the next game, but is frustrated with all these adults forcing him to do all this weird s***** over and over.
@@danielch6662 He could have just shaked hands. I feel kid is stupid it is clearly seen he is going to lose the match 1 sec to make move, moreover so many illegal moves and arbiter should get standing ovation for the circus he has created good for content.
After allllll that, the arbiter starts dying laughing after its over.. I love it, cuz no one else laughed, especially the players who were pissed! It almost felt like a moment on "The Office"... hahahah
did didnt it? was hilarious when the kid knocked over the pieces
Laughing at the end , total disrespect...it is not a laughing matter.
It is a total laughing matter. Its hilarious! @@nevillerobert318
2:17 I liked it how he shushed the kid away
lol he really stared him down
@@jebbush3130 yeah, like how do you give illegal advise to someone who has 1 second to take a rook and tap on the clock(?)
So soo funny. Told him like being back at school 😅🤣
🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫
Disrespectful kids, I'm glad he's doing his part putting them in their place.
Lol adhiban always comes to enjoy these controversial funny moments he is too funny guy ..
@@jire9831 lol😂
What makes it even more funny is that Rxd8 is a terrible move because it loses to Qxd8+ followed by Bd4 threatening checkmate (as also pointed out by Adhiban). Very easy to spot for these players if they're not under time pressure. So by the time Uskov had to repeat his move Rxd8 everybody already knew that he would lose no matter if he would manage to execute the move in one second or not.
Another fun fact: When they reassemble the pieces at 2:08 Uskov confidently puts his king on h7 which would be a safer square, then at 2:20 Kovalev puts it on g8 where it actually was.
if Bd4 there is Qxf4+
That's a gold observation!!
@@antuamigo8905 But then 2. g3 Qd2+ (Qf2+ is not playable due to Bxf2) 3. Kh3! wins
Yeah I think here the Kid really outed himself.
Sorry but if there is one thing you don't forget it's where your King was in a critical position because you always have to look for checks and you will always keep them in mind.
I was pretty neutral but with that observation we know that the Kid tried to cheat at least here.
At least that's unbelievably unlikely. He would have had to have a complete mindslip. A very convenient Mindslip.
Edit: Now I watched a second further and the Kid tried to cheat again. Moving with one hand a pressing clock with the other one is an extremely obvious rule that even beginners are Immediately taught on their very first day.
Breaking this rule will make any chess player furious because it gives a clear advantage and every chess player obviously knows it.
The Kid tried to cheat multiple times in a row here. He is a kid so it's fine but just let that be clear.
Hahah I missed that. What a sneaky bastard! And the other player was like "No, you're not doing this kid. The king goes HERE".
New Challenge:
¶Take a rook with a rook
¶Using one hand
¶1 second in the clock
¶Press the clock as faster as you can without messing the pieces up
Rules are rules. If you can't do it, you lose. Simple as that.
Online chess with premoves: laughing in the corner 😅
@@technicaltips2891 that's why otb chess and online chess are separeted
Arbiter was talking to the kid...I'm Morpheus...I'm looking for you... Neo...
Hikaru should try this in a live stream
Pause it exactly at 1:00 and the facial expressions of everyone in the scene sums up the situation perfectly.
The expressions on all the faces of the people in the crowd too!
I hope this comment will get all the attention it deserves :D
gold
thanks for this post
The kid: 😐
While resetting the board around 2:00 the kid deliberately puts his king on h7 ( to avoid checkmate ) and Kovalev had to put it on g8 to correct the position !?
Yea the kid is a sore loser
LOL
there was no checkmate, black was winning.
Black has extra pawn, but position doesn’t look very promising.
There is no immediate win for white. A lot might happen.
This is the third video of issues with the kids in the tournaments. This kid was apparently screaming behind towards another game.
Prodigies. He's 2400. The kid would cream most of us in his sleep.
Both Russian kids lol
@@danielch6662 lol prodigy without common sense....we have hundreds of prodigies like them but with common sense
Nerd Alert !
@@danielch6662 Why did you go with cream? That just sounds wrong
This isn't chess; it's prestidigitation !! It's a game. It's part of the rules. The younger players lost on time . Full stop. And thank you, Elu, for an excellent summary.
Adhiban was having fun...
Lol
That other boy defending his friend and becoming a collateral damage in the process lol. Reminds me of my school days.
That "other boy" appears in his own controversial video here
ua-cam.com/video/OUfUwXo8NEs/v-deo.html&ab_channel=ChessBaseIndia
4:30 was the funniest thing I have ever seen in chess!
You're right! I had to see it several times. 😄😄😄 Kinda feel bad for the kid though.
@@Arctic_Dude if you think it was the funniest you clearly haven't seen this ua-cam.com/video/e1ftkDt11Rw/v-deo.html
Lol
the arbiters laugh was pretty good lol nothing you can do there

I think getting really good at chess is bad for ones mental health.
i cant even begin to imagine the Tetris Effect going on in their heads all the time.
@@AysarAburrub Tetris effect?
@@KurtG85 its when you put way too much time doing something repetitive that your brain start to dream and hallucinate about it
That applies to anything you spend a long time practicing. It sort of depends on the person also. Some people can handle it, others can't.
"The ability to play chess is the sign of a gentleman. The ability to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life."
- Paul Morphy
Article 7.5.4 'If a player uses two hands to make a single move (for example in case of
castling, capturing or promotion) and pressed the clock, it shall be considered
and penalized as if an illegal move.'
And the chief-arbiter did/does not know that!? Come on FIDE how did you select completely incompetent arbiters?!
Well this is the first time I've ever thought about the situation of playing with two hands which means I hadn't thought it was even illegal. 😶🌫
That’s the part I don’t miss about playing competitive chess 😂😂😂
No doubt, people trying to break rules to get an advantage is very annoying.
These chess people are serious af. Reminds me of pit bosses in a casino
Bro they are worse. I'm a blackjack/roullete dealer and that arbiter that was saying "shhh" around 2:17 is way more horrifying than my pit bosses 😂😭
Or 40k tournament players
@Alex and it wasn't intended as a joke kid
@Alex you must be as serious as the arbiters eh?
Well it’s professional tournament
So glad this was captured on video. So comical and the Russian accents make it so much better.
The kid should have received first warning when he misplaced his rook and second warning and DSQ when he played with 2 hands. That is it........
He did. But he still has to play his move and do it right.
Correction to my post. I just read that the rules dictate the boy should've been disqualified and that's that. They shouldn't have had to recreate the original situation just for the boy.
I was watching the stream this kid was causing problems with almost every player. He needs to be uninvited until he matures/learns.
His official punishment was, “Try again but don’t cheat for the THIRD time.” Disqualification makes more sense.
In Blitz mode there is no second ilegal move.I. The first one illegal move and You Lost the Game .
It's not the chess play that is weird... this is what I call wtf moment. @ :23 where the guy just go in front of another guy and block his view like he doesn't exist.
Lmao
I go fucking wild when someone subconsciously thinks they're more important
Definitely the weirdest guy
This always happens to me at concerts cause I'm small
@@laurasanchez7105 just grow I guess?
My method is to not go to concerts :)
I love that the arbiter says 'I was supposed to press the clock' but when you watch it back he has no intention of pressing it.
That has nothing to do. The player should wait. But it seems that the older player also doesn't kbow the rules.
lol so true
@@oblio9147 Uhm... "I touch. You press. Then you have to play," he says, less than a second before the older player TOUCHES, then PRESSES...
What dimension am I living in that no one else is living in, where it's like I'm the only one who sees the truth?
Y'all need to clean your ears, or I need to get my head checked.
Why did the kid press the clock without doing a move? That should have given him another warning😂
it should be viral in few months like any other good video this is gold
Yup. Last good one was when the Dude fell of his chair.
To me the most weird incident was when Sam Sevian took Niemann's king and started fiddling with it, really weird, I guess it was US championship.
Also, he broke the top off by accident. It was funny. :D
Hikaru be like: I'm gonna show this Big kid how flagging from this position works..😆
I love the arbiter laugh at him in end. So savage 😂
The last laugh was with the arbitars and both players were real pissed.
3:58 the kid acting like he's the victim loll
Uskov, 12 years, is doing very good at the tournament. Ahead of names likes Van Forest, Harikrishna, Niemman and so on.
Ahead??? Van Forset and Uskov - 7, loser niemman -6
@@Andy_Tucker I didn't see how it ended. What a said was true at that time.
Niemman cheting with device under his skin ofc
@@joaosantos3023 more like in his ass
Sure....sure....
Once a friend of mine was at an advantageous position, and inadvertently he used the other hand to press the watch, the opponent in protest threw all the pieces away.
This is one of the videos we will see again in 2 years and can't believe it has more than one mil. views.
This is so stressful to watch I ain't gonna lie lmao
that's the most scary paper guy on the side. thank you for sharing this guy
The arbiter found it to be quite funny too. Also, he has a great singing voice. He sang a couple of songs for the Norwegian TV journalist. Great guy. The journalist too!
What's his name?
@@funtimefunny2153 no idea, but he's from Cyprus, I think.
Is there a video of him singing for the norwegian journalist?
@@FrejrNA it's all in the NRK archives. But, was it day one, day two, three or...if I can recall - I will tell you.
They sure made this chess tournament interesting, watched more of it than that world cup so far
I feel sorry for everyone involved, especially for everyone who had to watch this.
*I'd say the losing kid is an entitle brat who couldn't respectfully except the loss like a man.* *I would never invite someone like that to my tournaments.* *The other guy had over 2 minutes!* *That bratty kid wanted others to step in for him and somehow miraculously give him the win or something? The kid lost no matter what. So for him to sit there and not accept the lost is idiotically beyond stupid.*
I understand that man's frustration. He just wants to make something clear: He wants it done right. No excuses.
I would feel very pathetic winning like that. What a sad little man.
You have to give them credit for remembering every piece on the board, that is impressive! Probably nothing for these guys though.
no you don't have to. It's a electronic board which keeps the track of the game
@@papasnejk87no they did remember it.
I also always thought I couldn't really do it but then I was asked to rebuild the position when I was verbally analysing after a game and it's actually really easy.
@@sudhramjutun5694 actually the kid on the right conveniently "forgot" where a few of his pieces were and tried to arrange the board wrong before the other guy fixed it.
3:45 is very weird. The ref changes his mind after Kovalev complains. It's like he's improvising. What is the rule? Should a player be forced to redo a move that he's played with both hands or not?
That's the question exactly 💯
I think the arbiter was right at the beginning- you can not move a piece and press the clock with different hand, but it is not an illegal MOVE on the chessboard. Therefore it results in a warning but the game should continue and if he were to do it again he loses automatically. For some reason he changed his mind because of that guy's arguing which is very unprofessional and just plain stupid.
@@matta5749 a warning means that if you do it again you lose automatically.
@@BakedFishy but the move was already played. It is like get out of jail card. You can break the rules to keep playing and nothing will happen to you.
But the guy on the left was irritating. I would just resign as this kid, instead of taking part in this bizarre drama.
I think it was correct for the ref to change his mind because maybe if you did it in the middle of a match then it doesn't matter as much but if you did it on the final second at a crucial moment then that really does matter. It's like in tennis if you lose a point in the middle of the game unfairly then it wouldn't matter as much but if that point was match point then no you have to play fairly
I hope we can have integrity in chess of all things. That young kid knew he lost, more than once. No two hands and no illegal moves. Touch move etc. These are THE rules. He should have resigned
@2:50 - The arbiter when he says 'playing with two hands is not an illegal move' is the cause of this confusion.
If all players could do this, each player will have one hand on the piece to move and the other hand on top of the stop clock at all times during the match and then clock will never run out, especially with a two second increment per move during blitz.
Player with white actually understands the fine details of chess rules very well. Sometimes, the rules are so complicated (unbelievable, I know) that not even the arbiters know how to best handle the situation.
That advertisement at the end was as unexpected and random as the content of the video.
The fighting and arguing is so calm and quiet
I thought I was half decent at chess when I was a kid, but when they just set that board back up exactly the way it was… that blew my mind haha
wow still they know all the positions..
Everything has gone the right way in the end.
Actually, watching it in 0.25x you can ensure that there was much less than 1 second on the clock somehow, after arbiter pressed the button it has to be four seconds on 0.25 but it was not much than 1.5
What? How can you even tell? You’re watching a modified slow motion (that’s what 0.25x speed is) and also have no idea what the FPS used was (which is what actually matters). At this small level of measurement (splitsecond) you need to capture the footage in slow motion to have a true objective measure. Otherwise you can’t know the exact time remaining: capturing something in slow motion is different from merely replaying something in slow motion.
Nope. If it's first/one time try, the kid is totally wouldnt make that flash move
peoples eye will register about a quarter of a sec with really good eyesight and about another quarter to react by the time your hands start moving more than half a sec will be gone.
If you watch the first retry in slow motion it is quite interesting. The kid has 1 second put on his clock, and his opponent starts his clock, the clock ticks to zero almost immediately certainly way less than one second (6 frames in the video if you want to count them). Not sure if it is the way the clocks are designed, but if you are flagged when it shows zero then the kid was definitely not getting the full one second to play the move.
Also was it correct to reset his clock to one second, presumably that was the time he had after the very first illegal move, should they reset to that or the time he had before making that illegal move, which was presumably more than one second?
Also interestingly the final attempt to make the move the kid actually got about 3 times as much time to make the move compared to the first try when his opponent pressed the button (though still less than one second it seems). Not sure if this is because the clock takes longer to start from the button the arbiter pressed vs the opponent's button, but definitely very different length of time for it to click to zero. Given this is a single video of an arbiter putting one second on the clock twice, but ending up with very different lengths of time for that move I think there should be a question asked abut whether the arbiters understand how the clocks work and how to set them.
This is pretty much every tournament. There are the rules, but if someone breaks the rules, the tournament directors are like "So what. Keep playing."
You're not allowed to play with two hands in chess. So @2:37 he has one hand on the piece and one hand on the clock. So if he takes the rook with his right he must punch the clock w his right hand. This is well-known rule that every blitz player knows. Furthermore if you knock down pieces you must set them up before hitting the clock. In the end I guess he has like 1 second on the clock so he loses if he plays correctly.
unless your name is Hikaru Nakamura
He did good but because it was not a illegal but a warning arbitor shoud have given him the warning and move should be considered
@@niichan5635 He already made an illegal move though! and he had 1 second on the clock! What a dirty way to play chess and no wonder this is not a fan sport like more popular ones.
Technically, you can play with two hands if you use one Hand to capture then use the other hand to remove the captured piece from the board while the capturing hand goes for that clock 😅😅
@@cooloutac illegal move in time scramble can happen. in the recent us championship irina krush made illegal move and arbiter gave her opponent additional time. i didn't see any allegations that she is cheating or something like that. your treatment of this whole situation is quite overdramatic.
it is clear that he just misrepresented the board
1. kid took rook but replaced his on the wrong square
arbiter called
2. blonde guy started the clock when arbiter should have
they make them replay the move
3. kid used 2 hands
replay move again
4. kid loses on time

@@hypercubemaster2729Adhiban came up to him and said “you know you are winning right?”, and said some actual moves. The game is still in progress, that’s definitely not ok
@@hypercubemaster2729 Really? If so, why he was whining whole the video? If he knew how to win, he would allow the kid to continue playing
Adhiban laughing in the background is making me smile everytime 😅🤣
This is the «i would prefer if you would be quiet» guy of chess games
He took his rook and placed the piece he used to take it on the wrong spot
So the queen couldn't recapture the rook 😁🤣
I'm like that white hair uncle...just standing... nothing to do with situation
2:05 they destroy the board... And then redo it exactly like they have a photogenic memory ✌✌
"it's impossible" 03:30 wow he can speak english now
Adhiban is like: Entertainment 😅😃
Artem Uskov hits the clock without ending his move.
The boy is 12 years old lol . Even if the boy is wrong ,it might be awkward arguing with a kid in front of that many adults
Did your parents ever reprimand you for breaking rules or did they gave you a pass because you are a kid?
From the same people that defend and justify Niemann's osbcure past, here we have varun reddy.
It’s. Professional sport, they are both playing for money, age is no longer an excuse
He wasn't arguing with the kid though. He was arguing with the arbiter regarding the illegality of the kid's moves
Even if you are a kid you have to play by the rules, if not, dont be at the tournament
There is a video of Kasparov in which he takes less than a second every time he makes a move and press the button.
It's called something like "Kasparov didnt let his clock go down from 5 seconds"
Am I right in suspecting that Uskov tried to cheat? If he takes on d8 but puts his rook on e8, it cannot be captured by the white queen in the next move... so, if he would have got away with that trick, say, because of the extreme hectic, he would have won a rook (and prevented other problems that resulted from Qxd8).
Slow motion at 2:36 clearly showed the boy pressed the clock while still not finishing the moves. Is why the two hand rules is important.
Yes. Otherwise, everybody would just have one finger hovering over the clock all the time.
It proves that it is impossible to compete the capture with 1 second on the clock. HOWEVER, he completed that move earlier before the camera started recording.
This suggests that he actually had more than 1s remaining originally. That was why he could complete the move the first time. Even though he screwed up and left his room in the wrong place because of the rush.
He had 1s AFTER the fumbled move. When the arbiter asked how much time was remaining, Kovalev said "one second" and Uskov (the kid) did not dispute it. The arbiter then proceeded to set the clock to one second, and told Uskov to try to do it again with him watching.
The arbiter set the wrong time on the clock. If they were to replay that move, the clock should have been set back further, to how much time Uskov had the moment Kovalev press the button on his clock. I'm not sure anybody knew what that was.
But that would still have been the wrong thing to do. The correct thing would be to move the rook in the wrong place to where it should be, and penalised Uskov. That would be either a warning or forfeiture of the game for making an illegal move, depending on the rules in effect in this tournament. Continue with 1 second on Uskov's clock, with Kovalev to move.
the little guy was also wrong because he didn't conclude his movement after pressing the clock
2:40 ahah the kid's excuse is like "how can I do it in one second?!"
This isn't even top 10 weird from my own tournament play. I hold the all-time record for a king toss in the Adam's Mark Ballroom (250 feet), plus knight, bishop, queen and rook toss, No one batted an eye. It was a bad World Open for me (they all were).
Ma boi adhiban was having fun~~
That one dude is the Jedi of ‘Shhhhh’, stopped the whole room, most intense shush ever
That's why they should just play Chess digitally or on digital board no worry of illegal moves and timer.
Nothing can top when Sam took Hans’ king lol
The fact that they remembered where the pieces were to reset it up amazes me
Some grand masters remember games they played years ago
That's actually pretty normal for most players that play regularly. Harder is playing a game entirely in your head.
Almost all elite players can remember the positions of all the pieces and every move of a game they played recently. Some can remember the moves and positions years after the game.
Not flexing at all but being a 1750 rated guy, it is very easy to setup the board of the match I played recently. These guys are professionals and can play on 3 board simultaneously blindfolded and make a joke out of a players like us
That clip was enough chess to get me through the next couple of decades.
They have such a good memory of the pieces on the board..amazing
Players at this level have memorized and analyzed hundreds of games and are able to recall them from memory.
For them it is quite normal. Unless us non-players they see patterns on the board.
The arbiters shouldn't go back on their decision just because someone insists a lot. They decided to give the kid a warning and continue from there after he used both hands, then the opponent insists that he repeats the move and the arbiters just concede after the 3rd time he insists with the argument: "no". Makes it look like the player makes the decisions around there by pressuring the arbiters.
True. But what he's saying is also nothing wrong. The kid cannot be allowed to make a move with one hand and press the clock with another to save the match. 10 second increment is already enough for someone to gain back time from that position.
TBH I blame the arbiters for this incident. They should not just give him the warning, when he already was warned about an illegal move minutes before. You can't make every possible mistake once and be forgiven as the type of error was different. Second warning is already where you are defaulted. If the arbiters were adept, they wouldn't even let the game continue after the kid makes the second mistake.
It is sad how many people who do not know rules are commenting. Very poor decisions by arbiters. Firstly, Kovalev starting the clock and later arbiters realized that Kovalev should have not. Secondly, it is true that the player cannot play with both hands, it is illegal, but the penalty for this behavior is not going back to the previous position and letting him to do the move again (in normal circumstances with more time it would be pure nonsense). I don't understand at all why they listened to Kovalev. Unfortunately, Black wasn't experienced enough to protest against it.
If you are a fair Player you should not complain about this ruling as the young kid. Because you made a illegal move and after that you doing another one just to outplay the rules thats just give you a warning because they are not written for the time constraint. If you cant make the move in this time just give up
I think boy couldn't protest because he doesn't know English
@@TheSleepbad "Fair player?" What do you mean by this term? Should I not fight for my rights? Or children do not have the right to complain against bad rulings?
The second move was not illegal. I have no clue what are you talking about. It was a legal move made with two hands, this action is illegal, not the move (two illegal moves are a loss immediately).
Finally, I do not understand Kovalev, why he was complaining that much in a completely winning position. (I think a warning is a fair decision for playing the first time with both hands). Simple calculation: Rxd8 Qxd8+ Kh7 Bd4 Qxf4+ g3 Qd2+ Kh3 and Black run out of check and is getting mated. The only move is to sacrifice the queen for the bishop.
What an ironic comment.
@@funo8325 "Finally, I do not understand Kovalev, why he was complaining that much in a completely winning position."
Because of the principle. If you let small kids play in the tournament, at least make sure they know the rules, then it doesn't turn into the circus. Educate the refs too, so they know FIDE rules. I can live with random people on the internetz not knowing them, but refs at the world championship MUST KNOW the rules.
"I think a warning is a fair decision"
If chess would be played by the way each player thinks there would be real mess, that's why we have common rules. Too bad not everyone knows them.
"The second move was not illegal."
It is.
Rules 7.5.4
If a player uses two hands to make a single move (for example in case of castling, capturing or promotion) and pressed the clock, it shall be considered and penalized as if an illegal move.
+
7.5.5
After the action taken under Article 7.5.1, 7.5.2, 7.5.3 or 7.5.4 for the first completed illegal move by a player, the arbiter shall give two minutes extra time to his opponent; for the second completed illegal move by the same player the arbiter shall declare the game lost by this player.
Qualified ref should've know that and proclaimed the victory to Kovalev right there. That's why Vlad was so frustrated, he had to deal not only with kid, who had no clue about the rules, but with the same ref, two of them actually. Total shitshow of unprofessionalism
Upload the full video please .. i want to know how this kid was rushed into playing Rxd8 ..
Bruh when you got like 2 seconds left and the opponent like 2 minutes , you know you have already lost the game.
That ending is hilarious.
They had reached a position where Black had one second on his clock and it was his turn.
On this turn, he has to make his move completely with all pieces in their proper spots, and press the clock, and do it all with one hand only. The boy didn't do that task. The first time he tried it (in the original game), he didn't place the pieces in the right spots. The second time he tried it, he used two hands instead of one, to save precious time. When he was finally asked to do it with one hand and do it right, he knocked pieces over. All this demonstrates that he should've rightly lost on time in the original game.
If you're down to one second in your game, you have to deal with that first. You don't get a pass.
All White was trying to do was recreate the original situation exactly, down to its last detail. That's only fair.
You can even see the frustration in White's voice. He asks for the original situation and for Black to do the original task with one second, as he was supposed to. If in a game you manage to get your opponent's clock down to one second, it's not fair to have that accomplishment taken away from you. White just wanted those circumstances reinstated, and we play from there.
In the end White got it, and won on time fair and square.
In the end they even gave the kid everything he needed to play on. The original time he had left, and the right to move. It's just that this time they insisted he do it with one hand, and place all pieces correctly before pressing the clock. These are just normal rules that apply to everyone. And you don't get multiple attempts to get this done. You get one. He got one. And he didn't do it. So he lost on time. This is a fair outcome.
Thanks captain obvious
@@leenb7560 If it were so obvious to everybody as you so quaintly put it, then why are there plenty of people arguing on it? Apparently it wasn't obvious enough to everybody here, regardless of whether we know it's true or not.
"You can even see the frustration in White's voice."
Because by the rules, after move with two hands ref should've end the game. Rules 7.5.4+7.5.5. Vlad was upset that ref at the world cup don't know FIDE rules. He tried to explain them, but this people were smoking smth, especially the ref who told him to "press the clock", then fell sleep for two minutes, while they cleared the board, then decided he had to press the clock himself.
The two handed move was made because the kid was 12, and all the adults around him were telling him to make the move in 1s. He's a kid. He tried to do what the adult told him to. If it was me, I would just sit there and look at them in the eye. _Are you kidding me? What is the point of this_ ? Just let the clock run out. There isn't even enough time to offer to resign.
In actual fact, he originally had MORE than 1s. The evidence of this is that he completed the move the first time, even though his rook ended up in the wrong place in his rush. He had 1s AFTER the fumbled move.
The arbiter clearly screwed up. The rook ending up in the wrong square is clearly an illegal move. That results in a either forfeit or a warning. If it is a warning, you place the rook where it should be, set Uskov's clock to 1 second, and Kovalev gets to move next.
If you want Uskov to re-do his move, then you need to set the clock further back, to however much time he had the moment Kovalev pressed HIS clock in the previous move. But I doubt anybody knows what that was.
In any case, calling for a re-enactment is just crazy. In no universe, is there a situation where that is the correct remedy.
@@danielch6662 Nah, he knew it was impossible and said so himself just before his third attempt. He knew the position he was in and was trying to work around it by not following the rules. In a world class tournament and he has to play by the same rules as everyone else. No slack here.
The way that lad kept holding his hands out palms up was SO ANNOYING.
Is he checking if it's raining🤣😂🤣
What a passionate yet quiet scene.
The ending looks like a comedy movie :D
Simply the kid made misplaced his piece on the wrong place after captured the rook. So, it's considered he made illegal move, wasn't it?
When they tell him he has to play the move with one hand, he says "It's impossible..." Yeah, that's why you shouldn't get yourself down to 1 second on your clock. Time pressure is a critical part of this style of chess. Take the L and move on.
2:20 flashback to my elementary school days…
On another note their ability to recreate the position from after after they reset the pieces from a blitz game is impressive.
Exactly bruh! 😮 I was thinking that
Yes but the Kid purposely got it wrong in hopes nobody would notice.
He put his King on a much safer Square.
If there is one piece you remember the position of its your king bc you always check for checks and have them in mind at all times.
So the Kid tried to cheat at least two, more likely three times in a row.
Mark my word. This video will cross millions of views 😂
kovelev desreved that giri swindle
Ngl them putting the pieces back perfectly back in the same position is wild to me and I'm an intermediate chess player. Wow.
