- Africa no.1 Bassem Amin took on World no.1 Magnus Carlsen at the World Blitz 2021. The game is very exciting because Magnus chooses an offbeat variation against the Sicilian Rossolimo and then manages to put his opponent under tremendous pressure. Amin is equally up to the challenge and plays excellently to equalize. But in the late endgame Magnus Carlsen weaves his magic! Don't miss out on this beautiful encounter with IM Sagar Shah doing the commentary.

Magnus 92.1% accuracy
Amin 90.1% accuracy
...in a BLITZ game.
What dis mean?
@@HipHopCantSaveMe It means that a computer engine evaluated the quality of each move and determined that both of these players scored higher than 90%. Quite impressive fo a fast game.
@@JSSTyger Does this mean that based on a theoretical PERFECT chess match, a computer calculated that Magnus made 92.1% of the correct moves and Amin made 90.1% of the correct moves?
@@Whoopdido777 Yes
@@zyrso7073 Wow. That’s amazing. Has a computer engine ever evaluated any of his non blitz matches?
Just gotta say, this announcer is VERY GOOD. No kidding, I've never heard of nor have I ever imagined that a chess game could have color-commentary.. This guy is SPOT ON :) PS Great game, too!
If you liked that check out gm mauruce ashley or chess network on yt :)
I'm usually annoyed with the talking because I understand what's happening but this guy. I have to say this guy did not make me switch the video I lowkey did not mind his commentating lol I know his co workers hate him lol but the world loves him
what is a color-commentary?
Are you his friend, or himself? 🤣

Never has chess been so exciting!
haha like a football comentating
The Commentator is riveting adding even more suspense to a CAPTIVATING GAME!!!
This guy is a professional doctor too
I didn't know there is a league for amateurs doctors ?!! 😂😂😂

All the support for the Egyptian Doctor @bassem , in draw 2 games before with Magnus in the previous blitz world championship
Magnus the Magnificent! Great commentary - thank you.
Who'd have thought chess commentary could be so captivating! Seen a few vids with this chap commentating, and I got to say, it's really fun listening to him!! He's just as quick discussing it as the players are thinking it, and even spotting things the players miss! He must be good at chess :)
As an Egyptian medical Doctor and amateur chess player, I commend my colleague Dr. Amin. Great game!
"amateur"!! Are u series the guy has a peak rating of 2700+ !!!
@IH he's talking about himself 😁
this seriously makes it so much better with the commentary! anyone have any other videos with this dude talking? Helps me follow it so much better...
sagar shah is the best chess commentator i’ve heard!
as someone already commented, the indian commentator makes the game really exciting to watch. this was a close match with both players playing their best. however under pressure Amin made a simple endgame error of allowing Magnus's king to simply walk up the board kingside while white was held back to defensive position. the indian commentator is right in finding so quickly an answer to Magnus's play. Amin could have drawn this game had he followed the correct move order. But any granmaster is likely to miss such difficult challenging move. Magnus appears to be superior in endgame play while Amin managed to prove himself a strong competitor who can also give Magnus real challenges. Notice however how easily Magnus initiates an attack and which he never stops doing till the end of the game. So one important lesson to be learned is when playing Magnus always make sure that you are on the attacking side of the game which will give you greater chances of winning, of course that is assuming that you are a gm who knows the game well. But it seems that in 99 percent of his games Magnus is always doing creative attacking actions, putting his opponents under extreme pressure. The passed G pawn should not have been allowed. Probably a bad choice of endgame play was to have traded pawns and allowed Magsus a passed G pawn. Also bishops of opposite color would have resulted probably in a draw, assuming that all is done correctly and according to theory. When Magnus traded rooks Amin should have paused to think about what is the best course to follow he had two open files to worry about and avoid Magnus's penetration of rook into Amin's camp. Once Amin decided to go on the h file, he should not have relinquished that position. But Magnus then took over the g and h file and both his rook and king went to support the passed g pawn. Perhaps in these rapid games there is little time to think of endgame strategy, but Amin's decision of h x g probably was not the best choice since it gave black's rook mobility and allowed possibilities to attack inside white's territory, which is exactly what happened during the game. already Amin had secured the advantage of controlling the open b file, which was positive for him. Black's only option was to stir up something on the other side of the board. observe how Magnus intentionally protects his pawns on D7 and A4 with the bishop on C6, thereby also securing against Amin's rook penetration into black's camp by way of rook b7, with the bishop also attacking white's pawns on E4, F3 and G2. Amin's endgame problems are quite visible, he fails to position his pawns in dark squares and away from black's light color bishop's aim. actually all of Amin's pawns at one point were on light squares, which basic endgame theory tells you that is a no no to do: in putting your pawns in the opposite color of your enemy's bishop you are both safeguarding against possible scopes of attack and weakening your opponent's power as the bishop can no long threaten them. that is simple endgame logic which Amin should have known prior to entering endgame against Magnus. Finally observe how Magnus manages to keep white's king in the middle of the board guarding the bishop and protecting itself against black's rook check. clearly in endgames you don't want to be in that position. Your kind should be free to move and powerful wherever it goes on the board. For example, Magnus's king does that, it has both the freedom and power to leisurely travel up the board without any worries. Black's rook is assisting in that by both attacking white's bishop with a take and check and controlling the g file. meanwhile black's bishop now is defending a fully passed g pawn. so obviously Amin made some bad trade decisions. white's only hope is its passed f pawn that the black king must watch closely. After white lost its f pawn, all hopes of winning were gone. Black then was in a totally winning position, its king being finally set free from the duty of watching white's f pawn that threatened to promote. Notice also how white's other pawns are badly positioned and attacked, the C4 pawn is wrongly placed on a light square and left vulnerable while the A3 pawn might be taken if left unguarded. Also Magnus's pressure on Amin is so strong over the board that it forces Amin to now rely on his king and bishop for protection against black's rook checks and attacks on the pawns. This of course further weakens white's pieces where the bishop is no longer doing anything useful as a major attacking piece but has been surrendered to practically a pawn protecting white's king while also defending against black's g pawn promotion. When Magnus's king marches up the board to support the isolated passed g pawn, it is all over. Amin's king has been effectively removed from half the board (left on D2 where it is useless and in a hopeless situation) unable to lend any further support to his lonesome rook that desperately tries to stop the promotion of black's g pawn. Personally i do not like Amin's opening choice and the idea of his knight going to A3 early in the game. To me it was clear how Magnus was going to proceed early in the game after he had made the B6 move and instead of his bishop going to A4 a better move was bishop F1 which might have resulted in a better more secure game for him. Bishops of the same color should confront each other, although sometimes they do not and it is up to the players to make them useful in fighting at opposite sides. However, with a player of the caliber of Magnus it is best to keep an eye on his bishops. Magnus's knights were coordinated at one point in the game while Amin's knights were disoriented. Also probably the worst play by Amin happens when he allows Magnus's C pawn to move upward and deeper into enemy territory to C4, restricting white's pawn structure and the mobility of its major pieces while also later threatening to control D3 square with white's knight and pawn operation. one of Amin's best moves was to immediately seize control of the B file with his rook. Yet his earlier move of rook F1 is somewhat doubtful and perhaps a better move could have been found. another move that was not discussed by the commentator is queen x C3?? why such move is good or bad for black? i believe strongly that in order to better understand chess we should consider the what ifs of evolving positions that transform the game with each passing move. Magnus is a very careful and not just calculative player, perhaps that is the secret to his strength and why he normally plays better than other talented gms. He probably immediately sensed the danger of taking the C3 pawn, or perhaps he did not see it at all? I think that he did but realized that his bishop was hanging, although further analysis might reveal whether or not black's move was good. Finally, it is amazing the way Magnus manages to quickly move his pieces in the endgame, and not just moving pieces but making powerful and precisely calculate advances, almost as if a magician was playing with the audience. strong endgame players, like the great genius capablanca played this way, possessing the power to foresee endgame results right from the very opening and middlegame. when Magnus exchanged rooks, that was the point when he knew he can win in the endgame. something to think about in fact. Then threatening to move his rook either from the H or B file to penetrate Amin's prairie fields was part of his endgame strategy. Amin never saw it coming, he was constantly caught off guard and was simply responding to many of Magnus's threats and pressure. So clearly Magnus was the better player in this game. Perhaps in other future games Amin may prove himself a worthy opponent, and no doubt that he is already, just not this time. However more impressive was the indian commentator's quick reactions and how easily and quickly he found the correct move that would have solved all of Amin's problems over the board. Was the commentator using a computer program that alerted him of that move sequence? probably or maybe not, who knows. but he sure knows what he is doing and i doubt that people here were quick enough to find such a move. in the end the players shook hands, Amin admitted defeat and Magnus went home all calm as usual. this game as noted by many youtubers was quite fun and entertaining thanks to the great comments of the indian commentator who ads special flavor and sauce to the sports of chess. it is similar to the commentators of a soccer game when a team scores and he yells goooooooooaaaaaal! nice wonderful video, great job posting this for fans of chess. ok that's all folks! hope you enjoyed my comments. thanks
It took time to read but its great insight!

Guy, this commentating is pure fire
excellent commentary.
Great commentary
hard luck for the best in africa ...Bassem plays well with the best in huminity ever ! .... God bless you Bassem !
The commentary was amazing. Thanks.
Not a chess player, but a fairly good observer.
I notice near the end of games, especially when playing carlson, that hands hovering over various pieces correlates with someone soon to lose a game.
I like indian commentator voice and 2D board. In this game Bassem Amin playes with fear
Balancing chess and medicine is not a small deal😮
Ohh this game also tells us that a small mistake can be done in time pressure that can make a draw position a win position in blets game so its hard to be a grandmaster in blets
Espetacular commentaries

They should put pulse moniters on them so we can see their heart rate during the game
enjoyed the game much!
Best komentator ever that is what we need in this game !!!!???
The announcer played a salesman in the movie THE 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN - he was very good in that acting part and did an excellent job announcing this match.
I love when the announcer goes “Oh my Gawd!” I scroll this his videos trying to find it
I would watch this if it was shown on mainstream TV.
Chrono Trigger VS Alien
That's what a call an epic crossover chess showdown. Only the old ones will understand 🤘
Can anyone explain the move at 5:24
I couldn’t understand it
How did black pawn kill white pawn ?
Is this a rule?
Yes this is a rule.
It is called "En Passant" which means something like "in passing" and let's a Pawn capture another pawn that is right besides it if that pawn moved two spaces last turn.
It is probably one of the least known rules and it is the only way to capture a piece without landing on the exact spot the piece stood before.
I like your accent and your comments guy!!!!many thanks
Watch with the sound off to truly enjoy it.
Nice commentary!
Sugar Shah should be the #1 choice for The World Champion Tournament commentary.
this kind of chess is exciting
Perfect commentary!!
What's the name of the defensive strategy that Amin used in this game? The king almost in the corner having 3 pawns in from and rookie beside.
What an ending, extraordinary!!
Great commentator i see others noticed too.
SO AMAZING
Am I the only who watches till the end to see the handshake and not knowing who won 😂😂
Lmao
magnus win.. amin resign
Watch where the players places the Kings on the board at the end of the game. If white king is on white square and black king is on black square it’s a draw. If both kings are placed on white. White wins. If both kings are on black. Black wins. 😃
@@themexhanic7296 thank you! But why? Because Magnus was getting to get his Queen back and that would make it Impossible for Amin to win?
@the mexhanic what's the name of this case please?

Nice J ......!
I appreciated the commentaries a lot, although they were certainly mainly done for young Indian chess students (and I'm an old German) ... ;-))
What on earth is on Magnus's water? Inmediate release modafinil? Amazing
Announcer is great!!
The commentator is amazing. He should be hired to do these on a professional level.
Great commentator as if watching boxing or football game
I’m new to chess. Why did Magnus win? Because he can just move his bishop around and run the clock down?
At 10:20 magnus was about to promote his g2 pawn to queen. As a result of that Amin has to give up his rook for Magnus new queen.
So, Magnus will be full piece up and his bishop can gobble up Amin remaining pawns,plus Magnus can easily promote his other pawns.
Thus, easily converting the game. As Amin knew this plan he resigned (accepted his defeat) , instead of allowing Magnus to checkmate him.
P.S. These matches have time increment(mostly) with each move, so players can't just forcefully drain down the opponents time for claiming victory.
His opponent misses a draw. Magnus Carlsen's rook is doing more than his opponents. Amin needed to trade them off too ensure a drawn game.
@@divyanshubhardwaj3933 great answer!
@@Greatermaxim but he can't trade them. So, there is no draw.
@@TheRomanianWolf I must have misread the game. Good game nevertheless.

This game made my brain hurt.
You are a great commentator holy smokes

You know the game is over if Magnus trades his higher piece to the opponent towards the end of game...great commentator tho🔥🔥
Best commentator ever 🐐 status
Seems the commentary was retrospectively dramatic.
Same here.
I am going to analyze this game and post in a video, and post it back to my UA-cam channel.
you don’t let it go endgame with Magnus…
A calm video is better.. Thank you
Kindly watch closely or with 0.50 speed ...
how magnus takes the white pawn with his black on D3 when it was on D4 ? 5:20 5:26

وربي فخرررر❤❤
CMON YOU GOT APU COMMENTENTING
This commentator is amazing!
Greatest announcer ever
Yes,is that so hard to believe. I know chess players who r doctors
Muy duro carlsen
time 9:44 the move to A3 is not shown at all on that image! please correct
Great comment!
Magnus Carlsen #1 worldwide
Nice competition in the world
What's your chess rating sagar?
wow 8:48 I would have thoughtlessly moved King g5 and got mated.
Exactly what I thought too haha
Exciting commentator.
I swear, only Indian chess narrator can make this game this interesting to watch
Great
Always touch pieces before gameplay 😎
5:28
idk if I'm just too much of a beginner but the G5 pawn wasn't hanging right? If the Bishop would take the pawn then Magnus could use his bishop to take the knight on A3
G5 wasn't hanging, you're right. In that situation, I think Magnus would have taken the knight on A3
Commentatory is awesome... 🤣🤣🤣
Magnus !!!
Anybody notice at 5:15 he moves pawn next to the other pawn and takes
The commentator is awesome.
I don’t understand why Carlsen would have won. Can someone explain to me? The African champion looked really in advantage
Basset could only move his king and rook at the end. Magnus could move his king, a bishop, and two pawns, one of which was about to get queened. Magnus has the upper hand.
What advantage??? He was lost for 10 moves allready!!! Carlsen will force him to sacrifice rook on pawn and then EASY WIN.
Having absolutely no idea of how to play chess or even what’s happening during a game the ending always so anticlimactic 😂
