  • This is a 2-hour bullet chess tournament (Lichess Titled Arena April 2020) I provided commentary on. After a few games into the arena, I begin following the games of World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen, who played under the account "manwithavan" for this event. I streamed the tournament at twitch.tv/ChessNetwork. A few new strong players who competed in this arena where Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, Alexander Grischuk, and Anish Giri. Lichess Titled Arena April 2020 is held for titled chess players only, namely Grandmasters, International Masters, FIDE Masters, National Masters etc... Its $1,000 prize pool goes to the top 5 players, with 1st - $500, 2nd - $250, 3rd - $125, 4th - $75, and 5th - $50. This tournament began on April 25th, 2020 at 3:00 PM EST.

    I believe Manwithavan is an account Magnus uses while on the move, playing on his phone. (which would explain both the rating and some of the plays he makes in this video and on earlier Titled Arenas.
    And the Dr. Nykterstein and Dr.Drunkenstein are pretty self-explanatory....

    • @LeominsterFC
      @LeominsterFC 4 роки тому

      kasparov9 His best competition is someone rated hundreds of points lower than him whose only notable victories against Magnus have come in a banter blitz competition (not the most serious play whatsoever) and a Lichess Titled Arena in which the players are matched together with those next to them in the standings? A tournament in which Alireza was nowhere near the top (aka not playing the top players) until about half hour from the end? A tournament that Magnus won so many times in a row that he donates all his money back to the site to go towards the next tournament? You middle-eastern fan boys are some fucking weirdos tbh. Delusional bunch.

    • @LeominsterFC
      @LeominsterFC 4 роки тому

      kasparov9 Also Magnus played him two days ago and adopted him, in bullet. I’d be interested to see another top player get adopted even in bullet, even by Magnus. Especially since you consider Alireza his “strongest competition”.

    At 7.35, when you were assessing the position of one of the Penguin's early games, wasn't. ...Bxb4 an option for Black? If axb4 then Qxa1+ and after the king moves to f2, White's Q can go to f6 to defend the mate threat with a block. I know this is bullet and hard to analyze too deeply however would this sequence have worked? Love your commentary btw Jerry! David from Australia. 😉👍
