Can we appreciate how hikaru himself admits and recognises just how mentally devastating it is to lose to Magnus in this kind of long endgame? Props to him.
Bruh, Hikaru once said that being in the same era as Magnus was unfair to him and other championship contenders
😂😂 The guy really has a different level of respect for Magnus
@@vaibhavsarkate8772 Well, if you look his 1v1 historic against MAgnus you'll understand why he has so much "respect". I think Hikaru is the Super GM with the poorest score agains Magnus
@@lucasmatsuoca yet the have so many amazing blitz and rapid games against each other
@@lucasmatsuoca why did you make it sound like his respect for magnus is fake?. I get that Hikaru isnt exactly a saint but even I can tell his respect for Magnus is genuine.
i think it's safe to say everyone does appreciate hikaru's comments
This is the perfect game to understand why Magnus is the clear number one. Watching live footage of super gm's struggling to understand what he was doing, while playing into his opponents psychological weaknesses was mastery.
also prepration
@@Benzcrimsonitacilunarnebula relax, you can't prep the endgame
Magnus' experience on WWC saved his ass, Nepo crumbled when he saw he was winning.
@@user-qh4dr1vy9d Also being a better chess player than Nepo saved his ass too.
@@Benzcrimsonitacilunarnebula This win has nothing to do with prep. Whatever prep they had, resulted in an equal position. After that it was endgame and purely about Magnus being more skilled at endgames than Nepo.
The only thing harder than playing Magnus in a WC match, is playing Magnus after 7 hrs of chess, in a position you cannot win, in a WC match...
This is the first time I see hikaru talking to UA-cam viewers specifically and not the video being a replay of a stream
Yea, I feel he wanted to really single this out especially as the epic moment that it was. Makes sense to want to have your coverage up on UA-cam for the many years to come when this game will be referred to as one of history's greats :)
@@adamleckius2253 and giving credit to Magnus and talking about losing in similar games. Props to him.
This is part of the reason why I enjoy watching classical chess so much even if there are so many draws, as long as the players have fighting spirit and don't go for instant draws. I love rapid and blitz too, sure, but there's beauty in all formats. It's great to see these super GMs come up with tactics within seconds during blitz games, but the mental and physical fortitude, the engine-like play, the commentaries with deep analysis and variations live during the matches, the excitement to see the next move after 30 minutes of thinking in an important situation, the shock when someone makes a blunder, the press-conferences about single games... these are all things that you don't get in blitz tournaments. I was watching the speed chess championship, and it's also lovely to watch, but there's a position and boom in 5 seconds there's another position, they blunder and the other player doesn't see it because he's low on the clock, and the commentators trying to keep up, barely being able to show a position on the board because more moves are already being played, players flagging, no one ever talking about specific games with brilliant ideas.. I like all formats and I think we should have tournaments for all of them as we do, but it's a bit sad to see how many people are against classical because they find it boring whenever there is a draw.. there are many beautiful games that end in draws, this game 6 could have been one of them. for me, classical chess is defined by it's beautifulness, while blitz and rapid are more defined by their impressiveness. I hope that this game 6 changes some people's minds about classical chess.
Great analysis btw, loved to watch your thoughts on the end game and your streams were also very entertaining ;)
same i agree also i think fabiano was there comentating so thats great also good great betifull moves and longer game endgame
But you have to agree, that they were also playing kinda blitz in the ending part of game 6 as well. I imagine Nepo would have had some more chances of drawing this if he had more time.
Yea except the real stunner in game 6 happened at the point where the increment/rapid time controls started to matter a whole lot more than the fact that it was classical chess. I don't particularly see this as showing classical is all that pretty at all. Kind of the opposite really
I mean its abhard argument to win. It's like comparing football to soccer but to the extremes of both. Soccer is defined by its constant stress of any goal is life or death but nearly every possession ends in no goal. So constant tension but rare payoff. Football is constant excitement any moment big play will happen and back and forth and who knows. Now imagine if ppl only scored goals in soccer every 4 matches. The tension in when that goal will come is earth shattering but you also might spend 30 hours and never see that goal is that worth it idk
beautifulness is not a word. it's beauty
Possibly one of the greatest games in modern chess history. Instant classic.
Filled with blunders (albeit due to time pressure)
@@gena8414 What blunders? There were slight inaccuracies by both players in the middle game, but that happens in every game. This game was basically a theoretical draw through move 130.
@@Duke898 ummm no. Carlsen missed Rc2 and played Rd1 which was immediately winning, with Caruana saying "I have never been so disappointed." Around the same time, Ian missed capture on b4 which was also winning. After the new time controls on move 40, the game went to a theoretical draw before Carlsen squeezed out a victory.
@@gena8414 Absolutely not blunders. Magnus' Rd1 gave Nepo a +1.6 on Stockfish for one move. Nepo's miss on b4 might have netted him +1.8 on Stockfish. Both are winning, but far from certain. Nepo's one-movers in the latter games in the match were "blunders". Those immediately moved the Stockfish engine +5 points in a certain direction. The blunder in Game 11 moved it +11 in Magnus' favor. There's a fine line between a blunder and an inaccuracy. Hell, Caruana and Polger both missed c5 in Game 8 from Ian. They actually thought that was a viable option at first glance before being told off by Hess and Giri respectively. They're GM's and they missed a +4.7 blunder on Stockfish.
@@Duke898 umm yeah, that's true, but Rd1 was still a blunder. +1.6 is winning definitely, especially in the endgame. The fact that Caruana made a blunder (c5) too is besides the point. A blunder is a blunder, doesn't matter if a super GM makes it while commentating and joking with the chat.
I cant believe they played the longest game in world championship history! This definitely changed the dynamic of the game for Nepo.
You know you're next level when you know when you can just break basic chess principles to win the game
When you know that*
@@velzun8075 knowing THAT you can break chess principles is not as important as knowing WHEN you can break them to win a game 😉
@@Requinix17 🤡🌍
@@velzun8075 😒
@@Requinix17 I mean...you could've just thanked me for fixing your awkward to read sentence...
Thanks for taking the time to go through this game, Hikaru. Also, what an inspirational endgame by Magnus, makes me want to study endgames.
I was hoping for an in-depth analysis days later and we get this wonderful one by hikaru with quite a few ideas not explained or understood in other videos. This is the good stuff.
Very good, deep analysis here and very interesting how 2 Rooks are not always slightly better than a Queen!
I just started watching this video and before I knew it an hour had passed! GM Hikaru Nakamura's analysis is a treat!
I'm so glad we're living in this era where we have Magnus, Hikaru, Agadmator, Levy, Caruana, Anand and so many more!
I watched this intermittently throughout my work day. This might have been the most entertaining classical chess game I've ever seen, esp mid game and beyond.
Beautiful analysis thank you for taking the time in making such a detailed review!
I'd say that one was maybe Magnus best game ever? - Absolutely epic and way beyond my limits of comprehension...
Hikaru - your love of the game and truthful admissions show a world class demeanor. Truly a class act and can see why many enjoy watching and following.
Very instructive commentary on one of the games that will cement Carlsen's place in history.
Never go into an 'imbalanced' endgame with Carlsen, even if it is a technical draw.
Excellent analysis, lets me appreciate this game even more
Magnus's brain is wired better than basically everyone else's for the endgame. To the point we might as well call him an engine. Better than that since the engine would play to a draw while Magnus can squeeze water from a rock.
Or in this case, from a rook.
with a little help from his friend nepo! :-)
The reason the engine would play this to a draw is because Black would be an engine too and would be playing perfectly. Nepo makes one minute inaccuracy and Magnus will punish it, but I think an engine would also likely punish Nepo equally.
Yes, a very weak engine.
Quite the opposite actually for the last part of your comment. Engines will squeeze water from the stone while Magnus will play for a draw if he's winning or needs to rest
This video set a number of records including the longest analysis in history of a match and the longest analysis in history of a match with a decisive result.
In physical sports we very rarely see athletes at top level praise each other. Very enjoyable and humbling to see Hikaru praising Magnus.This is heart warming... I love it 🥰 👍🏻
The thing I'm most impressed with is when he shows where it's easy to miss tactics and alternative lines that evaluates as equal.
Very deep and instructive analysis, Hikaru! I have watched this game probably 3-4 times in the last couple of years (I've been hooked by this game ever since I saw this game live). Yours is by far the best we could get. Definitely will come back to this in the upcoming months and years... This game is one of my all-time favorites. 🍍🍍🍍🍍 Thank you, Hikaru & team!
Great commentary! Thanks for the deep analysis for your UA-cam audience
Absolutely amazing!! Not a fan usually, but this is by far the very best analysis of this soon to be classical. Hats off to Hikaru
Great analysis I was confused when I was watching the game your explanation really helped me understand what Magnus was doing! I'm not good at chess but I love watching good players play! Thank you
Thanks for going back to review this game!
Love you humble analysis. Great job!
Loved this analysis! Great and unique content! Thank u Hikaru!
I looked at the length of the video and didn't think I'd watch the whole thing but I did. Excellent analysis and a legendary record breaking game.
Imagine next 200 yrs later, people will be studying Magnus's endgame. He will be known as king of endgame
Chess will be dead long before 200 years.
It will happen in one of two possible ways. 1) Computers will find forced win from first move. 2) Computers will find forced draw from move one.
There will be no way to save chess because computers will be so strong that they can instantly adapt to change of rules. A couple of months after Go will die as well and finally any thinkable board games. At this time people have gotten smarter and they quit wasting time on the worst kind of nonsense.
@@UA-cam_Stole_My_Handle_Too there is a difference between humans and computers you know
@@permanentlybored195 Is there an argument in there?
@@UA-cam_Stole_My_Handle_Too Checkers is solved, it doesn't mean in any way that it's not playable and played at top levels.
Sure, knowing that it is a draw with perfect play kinda removes the magic of the game itself, but I don't think it's gonna effect the game that much in the decades following. One thing is knowing the game might be a draw, the other is studying every single variation to the end
And this considering that chess is way more complex (number of possible lines speaking) than checkers
@@Kebabbing There's no such thing as -top level checkers- in the same sense there's top level chess.
When the strike of the hawk breaks the back of its prey, it is because of timing. Magnus played otherwise harmless tactics against a weary, 'must win' opponent at critical moments and broke the back of Nepo. Gold analysis by GM Nakamura.
Watching this again after watching game 12 of this year's world championship... makes you appreciate how Magnus can just grind games even with almost perfect play!!
After seeing Ding win against Ian, and now seeing how Magnus won, whatthe computer favors is not always the best, makes these games hard is how any human can outsmart the computer if studied long enough. Ian is a hard player at chess and next year 2024 Ian will be world champion.., if like Magnus he specializes in end game tactics.
I loved it when I was watching Judith Polgar and Anish Giri and around move 130 they got excited saying computer gives mate in 47 moves
What I really like is once they are into a very equal middlegame, the eval bar never really goes up after a great move, it merely ever goes down for a player after a poor one.
And, obviously, I realize why since if a move could create an advantage, the engine would already have that baked in. Just goes to show how it's tough for these guys to "play to win", as at this level it's "play to not blunder first"
this analysis doesnt have enough likes, its the best one for this amazing game so far.
Thank you for the explaining.Now I understand better the game 6 .
I love the Godfather reference in the thumbnail, it really fits.
Hikaru! Your stuff is magic. Love your man!
Thank you GM Hikaru for this brilliant explanation, this video is truly the light which help us to see how much Magnus is great.
Thanks. I liked this analysis. I heard the Vishy Anand one LIVE. This is a good recap!
Great job breaking down this game Hikaru!
I imagine Nepo will be a stronger player after this. The excitement of playing in the World Championships. Good luck all in achieving your chess goals :)
nope, It will be very difficult to face Magnus again.
From a 4-1 head to head record in classical to 4-5 head to head record within a week or so must be traumatic. Would be amazing if Ian could muster the remnants of his confidence and come back to give Magnus a good challenge again.
He is traumatized
Bro Nepo is a super gm. He's beaten Magnus before 😂😂
It's just that classical chess in the top levels is grueling. And Magnus is really good at classical otb chess. Really really really good. So I imagine playing him with high stakes in that territory is a nightmare. Doesn't mean Nepo isn't still a strong player. He can beat Magnus on a very good day but this will mess with his head for some time
One thing is to watch others' videos which are really great but it is different experience watching the analysis by a GM. Thanks, Hikaru.
wonderful analysis
What a great video.
Thank yku
52:00 Hikaru says Magneto is the best end game player in the world
also at the end, lots of praise from naka
Obvio jaja
no he does not?
0:57 "Okay, with further ado" hahahahahahaha nice content there bro
Great analysis. What a game it was.
This was a soul crushing game.
Props to Hikaru for openly recognizing Magnus greatness... not so easy to do when you're super GM yourself
Hikaru has a poor 1-14 record against Magnus in classical chess. Of course he recognizes his genius, even if he doesn't say it.
Interesting remarks about the early transposition with g3 to avoid some of black's common responses to the Catalan.
Thank you. Much love from Canada. ❤
Deep analysis and very interesting. I watch Gotham and Agadmator, who are both great in different ways.
thanks for jumping into the game with further ado
this is what Radjabov talked about in a recent interview, commenting on Firouzja struggling in the candidates: "playing like Carlsen" - and he elaborated that Carlsen beats the opponent, not the position, or words to that effect
Beautiful game...whether LIVE, commentated by Vishy Anand then and there, or here..I've watched this quite a few times....it is beautiful game theory!
I now have a better perspective of what preparation means as I follow the Nepo-Ding 2023 match up.
Love this GMHikaru. This is one of your best endeavours if you have some time on your hand maybe consider it😄
This game was the most exciting chess game I have ever watched live. It had everything, time trouble, inaccuracies from both players and an excellent endgame.
It made me appreciate classical chess and even though it lasted for 7.5 hours it was the most exciting show on TV this year.
thanks hikaru for this analysis, v interesting
Love the Hikarunator at the end 😎
Great review
Great video, very watchable even as a chess novice
WOW, ASTONISHING GM.
B4 Wcc nepo owned the all time series between him n magnus...narrative is a funny thing
This corner of the world is absolutely amazing...the UA-cam algo does it again!
Thank you hikaru for the analysis.
Instant classic. For the ages.
Great video !!! Thanks a lot. It’s the best video of this game I have watched.
I understand why Magnus doesn't want to subject himself any of this again, but I hope he plays in the next World Championship. The masterpieces he produced are truly something to behold.
the thumbnails are always so epic
more like this please !
Qe4
Engine: Its draw. Just chill man
Hikaru: VERY BIG mistake
meanwhile the computer's just like "nah man, ez draw"
Wonderful explained ❤👍💪💪👋
53:00 Rd2 has to be one of the most brilliant moves ever played, all things considered. Played after 7 hours with a lot of potential moves left on the board, goes completely against everything you'd expect the position to need, deviates from Magnus' own plan for the last 30-40 moves, holds the position without losing even though it feels a lot looser than the previous setup, *and* it feels like the only way to win.
Great insight
This game shocked the commentators back then and gavecme nightless sleeps from statisfactions.
I call this " Levy without an engine"
Quite funny that Ian is presented as Yawn in the subtitles 🙂 This match was definitely not sleepy 🌙
dang, that was epic, and hikaru made it more epic
Thankyou Hikaru! You really brought this game to life even more :)
game 6 are always legendary.
Love the Godfather image :)
In retrospect I think Hikaru always was interested in 'retrospect'
54:00 "She'll notice." 😂😂
nice very insightful
GREAT THUMBNAIL
Epic breakdown
It's WITHOUT further ado.
Great video
lol the first ten minutes so far and he's talking about all the moves they didn't make
that thumbnail is funny as hell
Naka giving credit where credit is due
Is lateral file a nicer way of saying rank? (40:56)😁
Excellent detailed recap, Hikaru. Thank you.
Appreciate the analysis, but wish we could hear your thoughts on Magnus actually winning at 26:24 when Ian plays Qd6.
This was a problem with the analysis, missed the key error
It is difficult to understand the concept of this tablebase forced win
Look how he massacred my board - Nepo
