I used to think short was pretentious, bitter, and whatever the antonym for "easy-going" is. He really tried in this interview to be relaxed and casual. Ok, maybe he is making some progress.
Thanks I realized that I now can spare some time by watching videos faster and use that time to watch more videos :) Makes long videos Short :) 2 speed is little to fast but 1,5 is good.
I don't totally agree that there's a sell-out in titles. Yes, the new titles, even the old FM-title, are 300% unnecessary. But I also think the level of chess has increased. In former times you absolutely has to have a trainer and strong team. Today it's possible to get to a decent strenght with hard training and internet information available. Endless resources of books, dvds, chess-portals and hangouts with other strong players. There was a time when certain information was only found in russian magazines, not available to the general public in other countries. The internet removes this barrier and everybody has the chance to get it and everybody has access to strong engines (and even trainers). That's the reason I think why the general level of chess has increased. This is also the reason why they have to rework their title requirements.
Zeddicus1976 yeah , for example i always study myself with stockfish and learn things from internet and look to gms games , also play online that helps me so much otherwise i wouldn't even start to chess lol
Energy is found in running and sports like soccer. I would say indoor hockey must be a shortcut bcoz it involves less skills with the ball. So reading the game and grabbing the initiative as well as forwarding the initiative can quickly be practised. For inspiration there is allways light which comes from nature and movies. I think it was Ivanchuck who watched bullfighting before a game. That's where elements as courage and fighting spirit can be absorbed. This means a huge difference between looking for a win instead of a draw. Take a look at 1.5 min long video of a new rollercoaster being promoted and then play. Add on top of that Ac/Dc "Thunderstruck" and within maximum two games u will have performed an extremely mindblowing chessgame. The ideas and build up of a well engineered rollercoaster ride will translate into the game - and u will be able to take your opponent for a spectacular ride. Tip of the day!
My favourite chess player! Such a personality ;) It's always a pleasure to listen to GM Short or to read what he has written. Thank You for the upload.
Gutes, aufschlußreiches Interview! Erstaunlich, daß Short immer noch auf so hohem Niveau spielt. Für Tony Miles war er ein Angstgegner. Schon als Vierzehnjähriger schlug er die damalige Nummer 1 Englands und ich glaube Miles hat in seiner Karriere nicht ein Spiel gegen ihn gewonnen.
Very interesting that he feels it's easier to become a GM these days. I certainly don't see it as an easy task, unless you live in Africa or the Middle East and win a youth champion and get the title automatically.
You could have spiced things up a bit by asking him to explain TDF :) Seriously, I wonder if Short considers himself to be as aggressive as he used to be.
Erm, I euh and euh me euh but erm I and me and erm I am so full of myself, but I erm eeeeuuuuh am actually a very euh void of euh everything. Ha-euh--ha. This is the only person I have heard combining 12 stop words and 17 erms in one phrase. Congratulations for not running away or falling asleep Niclas!
Short is actually tall and Tal was short
LOL
At least this interview isn't short :)

:)
or maybe you were just wrong?
Excellent interview you listen and let the interviewee talk and he opened up well done
its amazing isnt it, how many famous interviewers are interviewing themselves ! you should NEVER say more than the subject of the interview !
A Great player 🤙🏻 with moral respectful personality 💚 Nigel you are my hero 🤗
play it at 1,5 or 1,75 speed
Agreed
1,75 isn´t working (youtube.DE=deutschland=germany)
1,5 is fast enough
I watched at 1.25 and that was fine :-D
Thanks I realized that I now can spare some time by watching videos faster and use that time to watch more videos :) Makes long videos Short :) 2 speed is little to fast but 1,5 is good.
I really enjoy this section! Thank you so much! :)
+Enrique Santorio you're very welcome!

Nigel short the all time British renowned player.Still going strong cool
Hillarious interview, thx, Niclas
Love this interview! I really hope you got some more 🤗
+Schachmalanders that was the last one for now, but I'm sure I'll record new ones soon :)
Short's Immortal vs Timman is one of the best games ever played.
Die Interviews sind echt klasse, vielen
Dank dafür!
Sehr interessantes Interview. Danke.

Im at my very very best first round, those morning rounds destroy me though, man, playing half asleep after 6 rashes of bacon is not a good idea.

How does it feel to trashtalk women in chess and get beaten by them?
So nigel short made up the games with Bobby Fischer. Even Bobby Fischer said those games were a bunch of Bullshit in an interview
Don't ask his biography next time that is boring and mentioned everywhere
Very good player though rather whiney.
