@@muzza2743 Magnus has god-like abilities. Aint no denying it. But in my mind Old man Kasparov is still the OG. Its also worth remembering that Kasparov mentored Magnus in Magnus's early career. Kasparov saw the genius in Magnus and knew he had to encourage it and help bring it out. And I think he did a magnificent job of helping Magnus become the absolute monster that he is now.
Yeah this was really good. Im only a 700 (just started 6 weeks ago after not playing since I was 8 or 9) and the commentator made it really easy for me to follow along and have an idea of what both players were doing.
If you actually watched this event live, you'd see that this is exactly what they do. They only use the engine for very complicated positions, but most of the time they can't use it since these games go by so fast and they cover like 6 of them at the same time.
0:35 was a unnoticed bit of sportsmanship. Gary forgot to wait for Hikaru to tap his clock and just made his move, and Hikaru said it's fine and just gave him the entire move on his own time.
25 years older and way past his prime, grew up learning chess from books, no internet, no engines, no tech what so ever and he just defeated one of the best chess players in the world , Kasparov is the greatest of all time.
You are so right. Before computers, chess players invented moves. Today Grand Masters test moves with computers. And the computer "invents" the best move. Chess has gone from almost being an art to being a fight between two people and their ability to remember the chess moves their computer has calculated. Chess is still an amazing game but another kind of game compared to the games of Kasparov, Fisher, Morphy, Capablanca, Korchnoi, Karpov, Larsen, Tal. Without computers I doubt that now a day Grand Masters would be able to fight the before mentioned players

Daniel is the best commentator for me! He manages to make everything sound exciting and his amazing skill let's him analyze the game on a superior level.
Amazing game and commentary. Great to see Kasparov still playing at the highest level. I remember watching him in the 80s as a child when chess used to be shown on British television!
Well, it is chess. It is not like a physical sport where players decline a lot with age. Chess is a lot more forgiving than physical sports for older players to keep playing and continue to be competitive even against younger players. Especially in a situation like this where it is just one game. It is not like he is being mentally exhausted in a big tournament type setting, that is where being older can take its toll.
WOW amazing game!! Kaspy winning against one of the top blitz/rapid players in the world today is just... amazing to watch!!! Danya also showing his flair for entertaining descriptions of games. Well done for sure.
I was given a kasparov electronic chess set as a kid. I had no idea how to play. I learned by playing on lvl 1 and eventually I got better. Fast forward 20yrs later and I'm still playing. I will always remember you mr Kasparov and I appreciate you for the countless hours of fun(and headaches) the game of chess has given me over the years. You were the best then, You're the greatest now.
GM Daniel Naroditsky has honestly been the biggest reason why I want to try and play chess. He makes these games sound so exciting. His commentary is insightful, concise, and animated. I feel like I know what's happening even though I have absolutely no idea.
The Kings stays The King. The commentary made the game so much interesting. This felt like watching a formula one or Horse racing.....honestly. good show.
So happy for Kasparov - keeping his cool against such a formidable player. Not many can outwit Hikaru when time is down to mere seconds. Kasparov Anand Hikaru Ivanchuk Pragg Sarin......the players I enjoy the most.
i’m not sure if you realize kasparov was world champion for years, you make it seem like gary is the underdog, while his name has more influence in professional chess that hikaru
@@bigerrol6943 im pretty sure it's not the name nor the influence that is being discussed here. it's the skill. today's super GMs have surpassed the garry kasparov when he was the world champion, and it's not even a matter of debate.
@@elmagnificow8494 I disagree, yes they have more "accurate" games but they all play safe and I feel the older gms have more tactical awareness and dynamic mastery than today's grandmasters (but yes in the computers eyes they are better)
is it only me when i hear Kasparov name i think of a very very special man and a historical character that should be mentioned for the students in the future
Honestly I don't think age is limiting his chess prowess, I just think he is done with studying 12 hors a day after so many years on top. Keeping up with the theory must be exhausting for professionals.
@@ninjaxd9050 I suspect it would still limit him in longer time controls -- not because of any reduction in his ability to think, but in his endurance. Playing top-level chess for 6-8 hours is not easy on the cardio, as anyone who has played Magnus in a drawn endgame can attest!
Chess is not a physical game, nor is it a fast instinct game (although it does help) but what is more important is building knowledge and intuition on the moves, which means the longer you played chess, the better you will be at the game. Age is not as big of a factor compared to other sports.
@@missionpupa Look at the FIDE ratings and you'll see very few older players at the top. Chess players usually peak at 30-35 years old, which is not really different from physically demanding sports like MMA, boxing, Judo.... Chess is a physically demanding game in that you have to keep going for hours and hours, and if you are not in good shape, if your back hurts, if you get low blood sugar, get sleepy.... you underperform, which at the top level means you get slaughtered. Guys like Kasparov and Anand who remain competitive in their later years are extremely rare, and even them... they were absurd monsters in their prime who now look quite human. Old Gary would crush the field, by a wide margin. Now, he can still win the occasional game, but he is lucky if he doesn't get a last place finish in a tourney.
@@sylver76 yeah, but everything you mentioned is not a consequence of age, its a consequence of bad lifestyle. So, just to clarify, im not saying that age is not a factor, I said age is not as a big of a factor compared to other sports, which is why Kasparov is able to beat Nakamura. You would not see current elite players in lets say basketball, football, tennis etc. to lose against someone in their 50's or 60's. That just doesnt happen in other sports.
Mind-blowing match ! Garry’s moves remain as usual paradoxical (the end-spiel is really epic!), though Hikaru is one the most dangerous adversaries, particularly in blitz, where age difference plays actually an important part. Danya’s commentary is one of a kind : a great master himself still preserving boyish enthousiasme, creating a breathtaking thriller of the game, and yet without sacrificing a learned insight. A must for every chess-lover !
This Garry guy is putting up a serious challenge for Hikaru, I’m sure once he gets younger he’ll be able to beat him consistently, maybe even become world champion.

Daniel is the best commentator for me! He manages to make everything sound exciting and his amazing skill let's him analyze the game on a superior level.
The commentator says kasparov was down to 15 seconds. Was that enough time to win it? Did Hikaru have even less time?
Watching this excellent commentary is like watching a prize fight for the heavyweight belt. Amazing work, Daniel!
But no rope-a-dope
Not to take anything away from anyone else, but it’s really inspiring to hear a GM doing commentary on a game at this level.
Amazing game and commentary. Great to see Kasparov still playing at the highest level. I remember watching him in the 80s as a child when chess used to be shown on British television!
Annoying commentary, just like all American commentary in any sports, they all remind of Bill Mays, the OxiClean guy.
Both of these guys are just so freaking good. Even Kasparov in his old age executes with accuracy and style.
Gary has a lot of experience to fall back on.

"Bang, bang, boomb!!"🔥🔥🤯🤯

Pepe😂
That game was intense ! Crazy how after all these years gary still has it to compete with the best.
насколько видел игры лучших, он и есть лучший, просто"без уважения к хорошему хорошего достичь невозможно".
Well, it is chess. It is not like a physical sport where players decline a lot with age. Chess is a lot more forgiving than physical sports for older players to keep playing and continue to be competitive even against younger players. Especially in a situation like this where it is just one game. It is not like he is being mentally exhausted in a big tournament type setting, that is where being older can take its toll.
12:48 no one better be in that bathroom
I never knew Daniel was such an effective commentator!
WOW amazing game!! Kaspy winning against one of the top blitz/rapid players in the world today is just... amazing to watch!!! Danya also showing his flair for entertaining descriptions of games. Well done for sure.
Naroditsky is getting really good at this! Loved it when he and Robert Hess teamed up as well. So entertaining to watch.
I was given a kasparov electronic chess set as a kid. I had no idea how to play. I learned by playing on lvl 1 and eventually I got better. Fast forward 20yrs later and I'm still playing. I will always remember you mr Kasparov and I appreciate you for the countless hours of fun(and headaches) the game of chess has given me over the years. You were the best then, You're the greatest now.
GM Daniel Naroditsky has honestly been the biggest reason why I want to try and play chess. He makes these games sound so exciting. His commentary is insightful, concise, and animated. I feel like I know what's happening even though I have absolutely no idea.
Gm daniel >>>>> im noob sagar shah
The Kings stays The King.
The commentary made the game so much interesting. This felt like watching a formula one or Horse racing.....honestly. good show.
So happy for Kasparov - keeping his cool against such a formidable player. Not many can outwit Hikaru when time is down to mere seconds. Kasparov Anand Hikaru Ivanchuk Pragg Sarin......the players I enjoy the most.
i’m not sure if you realize kasparov was world champion for years, you make it seem like gary is the underdog, while his name has more influence in professional chess that hikaru
@@bigerrol6943 im pretty sure it's not the name nor the influence that is being discussed here. it's the skill. today's super GMs have surpassed the garry kasparov when he was the world champion, and it's not even a matter of debate.
@@elmagnificow8494 I disagree, yes they have more "accurate" games but they all play safe and I feel the older gms have more tactical awareness and dynamic mastery than today's grandmasters (but yes in the computers eyes they are better)
@@bigerrol6943 you said you disagree but then you say they are indeed more accurate
@@elmagnificow8494 i say so because "more accurate" doesn't mean better quality most of these players are too good to be playing how they are playing
0:37 Garry premoving irl
@DanielNaroditskyGM should be a commentator on all Chess matches. That was incredible commentary and kept me on the edge.
is it only me when i hear Kasparov name i think of a very very special man and a historical character that should be mentioned for the students in the future
It's great to see Hikaru play, it's amazing to see Kasparov play, it's fabulous to hear Danya comment.
The coverage is amazing. Naroditsky is killing it. Feels like a football match.
Annoying commentary, just like all American commentary in any sports, they all remind of Bill Mays, the OxiClean guy.
@@lev2727 you're most probably born in the 1800s
Exuberant commentary for an iconic game
Probably the best end game that I have ever witnessed. Gary Kasparov (legend).
i hope all commentators for future tournaments take notes here, this has to be the best casted game ive seen
literally, it is my first time watching Hikaru being so confused to save his pawns
tremendous game and superb play-by-plays by Daniel. wow.
4:45 i love how Hikaru changes the for another pawn, nervs? 😁
The for upload, 2 Legends right there 💪💪
GOAT chess commentator, made me feel like I was watching the finals of some sport
Damn Garry is just such a naturally brilliant attacker his games are so fun to analyze
Kasparov the legend. Practice and form may be overrated when someone is this gifted.
Growing up in the USSR in the 60s-70s, I believe practice and hard work was all he knew back then
I love the way he comment the game and the gestures and mimic of kasparov, and i love naka too :)
Danya's impression of Garry Chess was uncanny, I nearly fell out of my chair laughing
Love watching Kasparov play, you could see the intensity rocket once he felt he had a winning position.
First time i watch a full match with a commentator and it was actually nice, from now on I'll watch more of these
Kasparov played directly to the final, that is his best strategy - where the experience is the determinant.
What a diamond of a match this was! Once again outstanding commentary!
0:16 here the finger is an indicator that the CPU is at 100% usage
Love the commentary
Love how Gary gets nervous. It is also an indication of excitement.
Garry Chess definitely knows the ins and outs of his game and this match shows it.
Am glad Garry got it done in time ! , still the most exciting player to watch !!!
💖As someone slowly approaching 50, It does my heart good to see Gary "Chess" Kasparov _STILL winning games_ at his age.
Honestly I don't think age is limiting his chess prowess, I just think he is done with studying 12 hors a day after so many years on top.
Keeping up with the theory must be exhausting for professionals.
@@ninjaxd9050 I suspect it would still limit him in longer time controls -- not because of any reduction in his ability to think, but in his endurance. Playing top-level chess for 6-8 hours is not easy on the cardio, as anyone who has played Magnus in a drawn endgame can attest!
Chess is not a physical game, nor is it a fast instinct game (although it does help) but what is more important is building knowledge and intuition on the moves, which means the longer you played chess, the better you will be at the game. Age is not as big of a factor compared to other sports.
@@missionpupa Look at the FIDE ratings and you'll see very few older players at the top. Chess players usually peak at 30-35 years old, which is not really different from physically demanding sports like MMA, boxing, Judo....
Chess is a physically demanding game in that you have to keep going for hours and hours, and if you are not in good shape, if your back hurts, if you get low blood sugar, get sleepy.... you underperform, which at the top level means you get slaughtered. Guys like Kasparov and Anand who remain competitive in their later years are extremely rare, and even them... they were absurd monsters in their prime who now look quite human. Old Gary would crush the field, by a wide margin. Now, he can still win the occasional game, but he is lucky if he doesn't get a last place finish in a tourney.
@@sylver76 yeah, but everything you mentioned is not a consequence of age, its a consequence of bad lifestyle. So, just to clarify, im not saying that age is not a factor, I said age is not as a big of a factor compared to other sports, which is why Kasparov is able to beat Nakamura. You would not see current elite players in lets say basketball, football, tennis etc. to lose against someone in their 50's or 60's. That just doesnt happen in other sports.
5:03 This impersination of Kasparov was on point 😂
unstoppable force vs. immovable object
Towards the end my goddamn heart was racing.
Daniel’s casting is nuts, 10/10 involved edge of your seat commentary
Gary still got it! I used to follow his games in the 80s. Amazing he is still bossing it 40 years later.
Daniel is great. The impersonation was spot on too! 😂
This series by Danya is just amazing and exciting. Danya does a great great job keeping us on the edge of the game!
the commentary made it feel like these moves were so obvious yet id never in a million years be able to pull this off
Mind-blowing match ! Garry’s moves remain as usual paradoxical (the end-spiel is really epic!), though Hikaru is one the most dangerous adversaries, particularly in blitz, where age difference plays actually an important part. Danya’s commentary is one of a kind : a great master himself still preserving boyish enthousiasme, creating a breathtaking thriller of the game, and yet without sacrificing a learned insight. A must for every chess-lover !
