That was really great, showing pictures before the video to get into that mood & vibe, I suggest must share the players handshake & venue as well in the start of every video
No, that's not it. He plays alot bcuz he is trying to make a name for himself. He is young and the future generation of players. He has to play many many games in order to catch up to the big dogs of chess.
Gukesh is a beast. Messy game but that’s the point. Wouldn’t bother me to see Fischer Random become the standard way to play tbh, it breathes so much more life into all phases of the game rather the first twenty plus moves being theory!
Gukesh yet again proves that he's worthy of that candidate's spot. It absolutely wasn't luck. He also proved to magnus that inviting him for this event was not a bad idea too.
It's beyond my understanding how people say he won a whole 2720 rated super tournament on demand..on LUCK! Also Anish and Wesley were invited, they declined. What shall Gukesh do? Leave his last chance to candidates for the sake of some unemployed jerks. He also proved himself in tata
I really like the organization, location and the idea behind it. They try to make the player as pleasant as possible. Except for a few starting difficulties, great tournament. It's a shame that Nakamura and Wesley are not there ... there are already 2 players from the USA. Magnus had made a good choice. So the youngsters also have their chance. Keymer Nodirbek and Gukesh probably have a great future. Well they are already top 20. Freestyle because classic and 960 mixed? great idea
In a parallel universe where 9LX is standard chess: 1 - People are praising Wesley So, Ian Nepomniachtchi, Bobby Fischer & Anatoly Karpov. Agadmator & Levy are talking about Wesley & Nepo all day long. 2 - Switch Bobby & Garry dates of birth. (Bobby's last name here is probably Nemenyi.) Meanwhile Garry Kasparov invented something strange called 'chess1' aka 'Kasparov Deterministic' where you have only 1 SP. Garry quits the 1975 classical WCC Vs Anatoly Karpov, is arrested in Russia (instead of Japan), immigrates to Iceland and dies in 2008. 1975 is not a big loss. In fact, it's better because Bobby Fischer takes over. 1978 is Bobby vs Anatoly match of the century in Baguio, the Philippines! Idk what happens in 1981, but then 1984 Eugene Torre wins the candidates and faces Anatoly/Bobby! In 1976, I guess Eugene still beats Anatoly. Either Anatoly or Bobby. (Trivia: In our world, Eugene almost beat Bobby in 1992.) 3 - Bobby is still alive in 2024. Bobby, Anatoly, Sergey Karjakin, Wesley, Nepo are on Lex Fridman's podcast while Magnus, Garry & Hikaru aren't. 4 - In the 2019 inaugural world Kasparov Deterministic chess championship (WKDCC), Magnus beats Wesley in 3 classical chess1 games in a row in but no one cares. Fabi is still the top 4 in the 2019 world chess1 championship but the top3 is now Liren. Nepo has never played a chess1 game, just as in our world Liren has never played a recorded 9LX game before 2024Feb. 5 - Wesley/Nepo doesn't quit the 2023 classical WCC. Nepo/Wesley wins 2022 candidates and no one cares about Liren. Wesley So Vs Ian Nepomniachtchi is the biggest rivalry in chess, far exceeding as well as succeeding the next biggest rivalry Bobby Fischer vs Anatoly Karpov, like Better Call Saul to Breaking Bad. Wesley, & Nepo are both considered GOATs along with Bobby & Anatoly. There's no distinction between GOAT & MTOAT. There's a slight bias towards Wesley because Wesley is Bobby's nephew. 6 - Chess' popularity in the Philippines & Norway are inverted. 6a In our world, Bobby had radio interviews in the Philippines. In this world, Garry has radio interviews in Norway. 6b Then Prospero Pichay Jr is imprisoned and the Philippine chess federation is free from corruption. But Wesley is still American. Huhuhu. Oh, in this reality, Magnus' parents are evil and then Magnus gets adopted by religious parents who are friends of Garry, so it's like Magnus is Garry's nephew. The 2019 WKDCC is still like a pseudo - Bobby vs Garry, and it's billed as battle of thei nephews. 7 - But still no one actually really cares about chess1 because no one wants to have a headache over studying the same boring SP again and again. Also its top players Magnus & Garry are still cheaters. But well ok maybe in rapid & blitz chess1 is picking up. (Same as our world. Fiiiine Magnus is right about keeping regular chess for rapid & blitz.) So there's still a 2022 rapid world chess1 championship, half a century after the 1972 REGULAR match of the century. This time Hans Niemann wins beating Hikaru Nakamura on tiebreaks. This time Hikaru accuses Hans, but Hans still sues both Hikaru & Magnus. Ches***m is not sued and is just as good as lichess. Hans is still considered the next Bobby Fischer / Anatoly Karpov while Wesley & Nepo are still considered the current Bobby / Anatoly. 8 - In 2024Feb, FIDE still cancel their 2024 WKDCC, but Wesley & Nepo host a rapid chess1 championship but don't invite Magnus & Liren. Hans isn't a cheater but has still has beef with St Louis Chess Club and so doesn't play that due to scheduling conflicts, but Magnus & Hans are still going to eventually defend the, resp, classical & rapid world chess1 championships. 9 - In general, chess doesn't have that many cheaters, cheating incidents, baseless accusations, etc and has very little corruption, discrimination, treason, politics, etc. FIDE is hailed as 1 of the cleanest sports/gaming organisations. Chess is an olympic sport. Bobby/Anatoly are FIDE officials. 10 - Tiebreaks are settled by armageddon w/ auction rather than lower time controls, so Sergey & Fabi still lose to Wesley/Nepo in resp 2016 & 2018. But no one calls for change of tiebreaks to rapid time controls. Lol. Also, pre-arranged draws are so rare. 11 - Sergey isn't banned because Sergey only privately supports Putin because chess doesn't make people go insane unless they the players want to stick to 1 SP only, like Garry. 12 - Actually here, Bobby has very neutral feminist enlightened political views and is a true patriotic Jew & American ( in politics in addition to still being such a patriot in chess ) while respectfully criticising both US & Israel along side condemning Osama bin Laden / Al-Qaeda & Ismail Haniyeh / Hamas. So Bobby is still against Iraq invasion. 13 - Most importantly, no one cares about Garry, Magnus, Hikaru or Liren. Specifically, in this world, they care less about them as compared to Wesley, Nepo, Bobby & Anatoly in our world. 14 - Paradise. --- Ok back to reality: --- PLEASE agad it's been 4 months! 2023 USCC - Atousa almost beat Carissa Yip, the eventual winner! Carissa was losing most of the game. Atousa just blundered in the end.

2 games per randomization or 1 randomization per day for all games? How far in advance do they see the pieces? I think these are the biggest considerations in the format.
3rd: WC1 - Who'd Bobby Fischer consider the REAL world champion of 2019Nov - 2023Mar? -Wesley So, classical WFRCC - also Bobby's nephew via Lotis Key's older sibling -Hikaru, rapid WFRCC -Magnus, classical WCC --- Notes: 1 If Nepo had won the 2023 WCC, then I'm not sure who Bobby would pick between Nepo & Wesley So as real world champion for 2019Nov - 2023Dec. Also, I'm not sure Bobby would choose Nepo over Wesley So as the top player at the end of the 4 year period. I just know it's not Hikaru or Magnus. Lol.) 2 In 60min FRC games aka classical 9LX games Wesley So - played the most games (14) - drew the most (8) - won the most (6) - lost the fewest (0) and was the only player to never lose. Hikaru - never won Magnus - lost the most games (4) - lost 3x in a row LOL. - Magnus is on the receiving end of the 9LX version of bobby fischer's double 6-0-0 in the 1971 candidates -The last time someone lost 3x classical in a row in the finals of FIDE or PCA world championship was vishy anand vs alexei shirov 2 decades prior. 2 whole decades vishy's record stood until wesley so vs magnus. 3 Wesley So, Bobby Fischer & Hans Niemann have NEVER done ANY of the ff evil things in chess as adults. Magnus Carlsen, Garry Kasparov & Hikaru Nakamura HAVE done EACH of the ff evil things in chess as adults. Evil : -Cheating -Baseless accusations -Discrimination (eg by cheating or baselessly accusing people mainly of a certain ethnicity or citizenship) -Treason Re treason: - Magnus betrayed fellow Scandinavian-descent Hans by baselessly accusing Hans - Hikaru betrayed fellow American Hans by baselessly accusing Hans. - Garry betrayed 2 fellow Jews Judit Polgar & Alexei Shirov by cheating them. --- WC2 - Who'd Bobby Fischer consider the REAL top player of 2019Nov - 2024Jan? - Magnus, top classical chess player - Hikaru, the top rapid 9LX player ( who was ranked lower than Wesley So in the 2023 9LX ) - Wesley, the top classical 9LX player & again Bobby's nephew via Lotis - Nepo, who's top 2 in all those 3 categories (Nepo not Magnus is top 2 classical 9LX player in score) Fine. I'm not sure it's Wesley So as of 2023Dec, even though it was in 2019Dec. But I know it's not Magnus or Hikaru. Lol. But Nepo, Wesley, Bobby & Hans are good. Liren, Magnus, Garry & Hikaru are bad. --- P.S. Wesley So on Lex Fridman xcdhgq P.P.S. Interview while imprisoned p1w4Rr-1Uk Pablo Mercado: So what is your advice to the Filipino chess players? Uncle Bobby Fischer: My advice is to give up chess and take up Fischer Random. - 2004Oct11, 15 years before nephew Wesley So became the inaugural WFRCC in CLASSICAL time controls.
There has to be some problems with fischer random where some opening setups allow for either white or black to force a win or even force a draw from the opening move (which is still degenerate). Unless Stockfish analyzed all the starting positions for maximum depth and found none. Is this the case? Update: found a reddit that explains this, and there are some positions that favor white heavily in stockfish analysis, but not enough to force a win/draw.
Would it be possible to include a code to copy and paste into an engine to get the position and/or moves to do analisis on our own too? great video btw, hope you cover a lot of this tournament!!
#suggestion hi agad, if you show any games from this tournament, I’ll be more than happy to watch it as this format is something new and keeps us guessing who will win in the end. There is no opening knowledge, no predetermined lines, makes it interesting from viewers. Please try to cover as many games as you can. Thanks
It's the number of ways to arrange 2 rooks, 2 bishops, 2 knights, a king and a queen, where the bishops must be on light/dark squares and the king must be between the 2 rooks. Without the latter restriction it's 4 * 4 possibilities for the bishops and 6!/(2! * 2! * 1! * 1!) for the other pieces (multinomial formula). This overcounts by a factor of 3 since for every choice of 3 squares for the king and 2 rooks, only one of the 3 permutations of the king and rooks is legal. Thus we get 4 * 4 * 6!/(2! * 2! * 1! * 1!) / 3 = 960.
4th: Hans Niemann = next Bobby Fischer - Wesley So = current Bobby Fischer - Bobby Fischer's ghost = old Bobby Fischer - Beth Harmon = Bobby Fischer in another universe Each of these 4 'is a prodigy, had a rather dark childhood and is American'. Speaking of Wesley So Hikaru's (the rapid WFRCC) wife almost beat Wesley So's (the classical WFRCC) girlfriend! 2023 USCC - Indeed Carissa Yip won and thanked Wesley So as her secret second in the 2023 USCC closing ceremony speech. But in Carissa vs Atousa, Carissa was losing most of the game. Atousa just blundered in the end. move 54 for black is an 8-move equality puzzle it's so sharp [Variant "From Position"] [FEN "1Q5k/3r1rn1/p3N3/Pp1p2P1/1q2p3/1B2R2P/5P2/6K1 b"] 1...

I'd say the opposite is true. One of the things Fisher really believed is that chess shouldn't be about who knows the most about chess theory, who memorizes the most and who plays the most games. This is exactly the same as regular chess except all of a sudden Magnus isn't guaranteed to win on an opening he knows
#suggestion Levon vs Nodirbek game from round 1 was absolutely crazy! Commentators were certain one was going to win and had to change their mind 2 or 3 times during the game! Had sacrifices, time scrambles and it was only fair it ended with a peaceful result.
13:03 "And it was in this position, on move 58, that Magnus Carlsen resigned the game, as there is nothing more to be done here." You don't hear this often.
Very soon, mark my word, the computer will scramble the pieces out so it will take the players straight to the end game with a slight unbalance skipping all theory, boring middle games etc. Sad day . We are seeing the last human generations of great chess players until it is all over. When they connect the human brain to AI, that'll be the end of it. R.I.P chess
5th: Nice job Gukesh & Nodirbek for proving Magnus is a TALENTLESS patzer who crumbles without opening prep. Liren too. Magnus & Liren are cowards for not having Wesley & Nepo in this tournament. I had a feeling Liren would suck because back in 2023Aug Liren never played and also in general Liren supports Magnus, Garry & Veselin over Wesley, Bobby & Vlad Kramnik. Proof: kTGBSAR-lxE Also, Hikaru sucks for never winning a classical 9LX game. Also, Garry sucks. Bobby hated Garry. Garry cheated Vishy in 1995 PCA classical WCC. Proof: aaTUJFjMfyI Also Vincent sucks for blacklisting Hans while Nodirbek rules for beating Wesley & defending Hans. More info: XNHWbgAsZnA Vishy, Wesley, Bobby, Gukesh, Hans, Vidit, Nepo, Nodirbek, et al RULE while Magnus, Hikaru, Vincent & Liren SUCK. Generally, chess players are more evil than 9LX players: p1w4Rr-jr

Yeah, when your opponent has two knights while you have none, you better leave the board before falling for any nasty fork. Just disgusting, while beautiful.
Here in this move 0, we have a completely new game.
😂😂
It would be cool if the middle game somehow transposed to a game from regular chess history, e.g. after castling.
@@jamesyoung9311 that's not possible
not really. in chess 960 there are 960 different starting positions. it is possible that some other games got this position before.
I like 960 chess. No rote learning of tedious openings, or known drawing lines. You're on your own and brawling from the first move.
That was really great, showing pictures before the video to get into that mood & vibe, I suggest must share the players handshake & venue as well in the start of every video

He is also the kind of player who wins or loses a lot which is entertaining. Not a rock solid type player.

Notes:
1
If Nepo had won the 2023 WCC, then I'm not sure who Bobby would pick between Nepo & Wesley So as real world champion for 2019Nov - 2023Dec. Also, I'm not sure Bobby would choose Nepo over Wesley So as the top player at the end of the 4 year period. I just know it's not Hikaru or Magnus. Lol.)

In 60min FRC games aka classical 9LX games
Wesley So
- played the most games (14)
- drew the most (8)
- won the most (6)
- lost the fewest (0) and was the only player to never lose.
Hikaru
- never won
Magnus
- lost the most games (4)
- lost 3x in a row LOL.
- Magnus is on the receiving end of the 9LX version of bobby fischer's double 6-0-0 in the 1971 candidates
-The last time someone lost 3x classical in a row in the finals of FIDE or PCA world championship was vishy anand vs alexei shirov 2 decades prior. 2 whole decades vishy's record stood until wesley so vs magnus.

Wesley So, Bobby Fischer & Hans Niemann have NEVER done ANY of the ff evil things in chess as adults.
Magnus Carlsen, Garry Kasparov & Hikaru Nakamura HAVE done EACH of the ff evil things in chess as adults.
Evil :
-Cheating
-Baseless accusations
-Discrimination (eg by cheating or baselessly accusing people mainly of a certain ethnicity or citizenship)
-Treason
Re treason:
- Magnus betrayed fellow Scandinavian-descent Hans by baselessly accusing Hans
- Hikaru betrayed fellow American Hans by baselessly accusing Hans.
- Garry betrayed 2 fellow Jews Judit Polgar & Alexei Shirov by cheating them.

WC2 - Who'd Bobby Fischer consider the REAL top player of 2019Nov - 2024Jan?
- Magnus, top classical chess player
- Hikaru, the top rapid 9LX player ( who was ranked lower than Wesley So in the 2023 9LX )
- Wesley, the top classical 9LX player & again Bobby's nephew via Lotis
- Nepo, who's top 2 in all those 3 categories (Nepo not Magnus is top 2 classical 9LX player in score)
Fine. I'm not sure it's Wesley So as of 2023Dec, even though it was in 2019Dec. But I know it's not Magnus or Hikaru. Lol. But Nepo, Wesley, Bobby & Hans are good. Liren, Magnus, Garry & Hikaru are bad.

Any math majors like to clear up the combinatorics of the number 960 please
It's the number of ways to arrange 2 rooks, 2 bishops, 2 knights, a king and a queen, where the bishops must be on light/dark squares and the king must be between the 2 rooks. Without the latter restriction it's 4 * 4 possibilities for the bishops and 6!/(2! * 2! * 1! * 1!) for the other pieces (multinomial formula). This overcounts by a factor of 3 since for every choice of 3 squares for the king and 2 rooks, only one of the 3 permutations of the king and rooks is legal. Thus we get 4 * 4 * 6!/(2! * 2! * 1! * 1!) / 3 = 960.

#suggestion the game Geller vs Smyslov is a masterpiece, one of the best games ever.
Is it true that they let Magnus choose who is going to play in this tournament this year? Some notable players are missing (Hikaru, Wesley So etc.).
I'd like to see Nepo playing this tournament or Hikaru. After all they were WC finalists (with Hikaru winning in Armageddon)
Wow, what a photo !
Fischer random requires more creativity and Magnus relies on remembering lines so this is more equalizing and the true spirit of chess
I can't believe Gukesh is 17. Unreal.
in this positerino agadamatorino
Description is wrong
Shoulda showed more lines after Qd8 because that was what would have won the game for Maggio
bro played commentary from the future
4th: Hans Niemann = next Bobby Fischer
- Wesley So = current Bobby Fischer
- Bobby Fischer's ghost = old Bobby Fischer
- Beth Harmon = Bobby Fischer in another universe
Each of these 4 'is a prodigy, had a rather dark childhood and is American'.
Speaking of Wesley So
Hikaru's (the rapid WFRCC) wife almost beat Wesley So's (the classical WFRCC) girlfriend!
2023 USCC - Indeed Carissa Yip won and thanked Wesley So as her secret second in the 2023 USCC closing ceremony speech.
But in Carissa vs Atousa, Carissa was losing most of the game. Atousa just blundered in the end.
move 54 for black is an 8-move equality puzzle
it's so sharp

Poor Ding..😥😢..he is def. not chilling..🥶🥶
I’m still trying to appreciate normal chess and so I cannot watch this
Same here
I'd say the opposite is true. One of the things Fisher really believed is that chess shouldn't be about who knows the most about chess theory, who memorizes the most and who plays the most games. This is exactly the same as regular chess except all of a sudden Magnus isn't guaranteed to win on an opening he knows
We are noob...for this version !
This freestyle version can only b adventurous for this GMs 😅
Ok get lost
Because you like memorization lol
Fischer Random is the best chess
#suggestion Levon vs Nodirbek game from round 1 was absolutely crazy! Commentators were certain one was going to win and had to change their mind 2 or 3 times during the game! Had sacrifices, time scrambles and it was only fair it ended with a peaceful result.

Ding losing all of the games, what a surprise
I came back after 3 years to your channel.. where is your dog? I dont see him in the background.. 😢😢
Wow Magnus isn’t really good at chess960. He never had a good showing in 960 events.

Gukesh was the youngest person to beat magnus.
Wow!!
How *DARE* they interrupt our favourite chess UA-camr with their frivolous commentary!
I hate laud Taniya
Indirekt #suggestion
I just noticed i never saw a fischer random chess game of fischer.
Gukesh jest dobry.
Sound
wow nice!
nice outro xd
When are they going to fix the nonsensical castling rules?
CHYESSSSSS 960 !!!!

Wow Gukesh destroyed Magnus in this one!! From a position that seemed slightly weaker (at least for human lol)
gukesh
1 loss against alireza
3 wins - magnus ding and levon
13:03 "And it was in this position, on move 58, that Magnus Carlsen resigned the game, as there is nothing more to be done here."
You don't hear this often.
Not 1st view but first 2 min view 😁😁
Very soon, mark my word, the computer will scramble the pieces out so it will take the players straight to the end game with a slight unbalance skipping all theory, boring middle games etc. Sad day . We are seeing the last human generations of great chess players until it is all over. When they connect the human brain to AI, that'll be the end of it. R.I.P chess
5th: Nice job Gukesh & Nodirbek for proving Magnus is a TALENTLESS patzer who crumbles without opening prep. Liren too. Magnus & Liren are cowards for not having Wesley & Nepo in this tournament. I had a feeling Liren would suck because back in 2023Aug Liren never played and also in general Liren supports Magnus, Garry & Veselin over Wesley, Bobby & Vlad Kramnik.
Proof:
kTGBSAR-lxE
Also, Hikaru sucks for never winning a classical 9LX game.
Also, Garry sucks. Bobby hated Garry. Garry cheated Vishy in 1995 PCA classical WCC.
Proof:

Also Vincent sucks for blacklisting Hans while Nodirbek rules for beating Wesley & defending Hans.
More info:
XNHWbgAsZnA
Vishy, Wesley, Bobby, Gukesh, Hans, Vidit, Nepo, Nodirbek, et al RULE while Magnus, Hikaru, Vincent & Liren SUCK.
Generally, chess players are more evil than 9LX players:

Uncle Bobby Fischer: My advice is to give up chess and take up Fischer Random.

Yes
i dont like this kind of chess..
gg
Yeah, when your opponent has two knights while you have none, you better leave the board before falling for any nasty fork. Just disgusting, while beautiful.
Magnus lost again?, get ready for the accusations, Gukesh
Carlsen lost. OH! His opponent surely cheated...
