That's just a rule in chess - you cannot castle when your king is in check
Y
Is it a good sign I found queen h6 in 5 seconds?
If i'm ever sitting in front of Magnus and he sacrificed his queen i'mma resign immediately acting like i understand how that move would win him the game.
This one made me laugh more than any other 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bold of you to assume you’d resign that late in a game against Magnus.
Yeah, and if the reporters ask me why did I resign, I'd answer 'It was clear victory for Magnus, don't you guys see that?' and move on
Hahahahahah
If i meet real carlsen i got to troll anything
I also sacrifice a lot of pieces. With no follow-up whatsoever.
😆
we
I made a very unsound rook sacrifice once. It didnt play out well but I got a draw at least lol
Positional sacrifices
That’s called losing the game not sacrifices!
Carlsen on last game: *Call an ambulance, but not for me.*

Edit your girlfriend
No chessmaster would take an offering unless earned.
First rule in the book.
And his wife😂😂
😂😭😭
whenever i'm asked to identify the next move, i immediately search for sacrifices lol
Bruh everyone does, no need to say it
This is really true in every single way
Right!!!!... but try to find those move in a game you play
Haha I was looking for this comment. Yeah after the first example I tried that and guessed the second one =)
500th like!
Game #5 against Karjakin:
Karjakin: “It’s about to be checkmate!”
Carlsen: “Yes, yes it is”
Hi
Carlson took the keys to this opponent’s Mercedes and drove off - reverse car jacking
Game 5 # really heartbreaking for karjakin
Karjakin after watching this videos be like :
Carlsen: Please call an ambulance!
Also Carlsen: But not for me
When I know there is a winning move, I can spot it, but I never know when there is a winning move
Same, these weren’t too hard to guess when I knew there was something to look for (aside from castling, I was close though, moving the rook to f1 and eyeing the weak back rank). I think the trick is To treat every move as a chess puzzle. Of course, at that point time becomes an issue
@@NinjasOfOrca whats your elo?
@@Tyler-bp4md around 970-980 rapid. Trying to break 1000, but my blunders keep getting in the way
@@NinjasOfOrca i have a habit of only playing bots. i did it in csgo too lol. would you recommend playing real people? cuz honestly i dont like the outlook for me...
@@Tyler-bp4md I do recommend real people. Bots, especially those at beginner and intermediate levels, are designed to make decent moves and then just make a completely crazy move that no human would ever play. I think you learn more playing other humans. I also think it’s more fun because you can become part of a community who shares an interest with you
Queen:I am the most powerful and second important piece on the whole bo-
Magnus:bla bla blabbity bla your getting killed within my first 10 moves so I can win
i laughed and my brother who is a highschool chess champion also laughed at this comment
@@thomasvenner8835 wholesome.
I really don't know how Carlsen's opponents don't flip over the board out of frustration. That last one would've had me sitting in that chair for hours questioning my life, my career, and piecing together how and why God hates me.
This made my day
I'm pretty sure Karjakin knew it was a strong possibility. I don't know how he normally plays, but given this was the last game of the championship, I'm guessing he decided to risk losing to try and win. If Carlsen hadn't found that 1 move, Karjakin would've won it.
But on a side note, I feel that way after every game I play :D
I would be honoured to lose to such an amazing move.
This comment is so trash and nonsense that it's funny
It shouldn't bother you. Magnus does that to everyone.
I found 3 of the 5, but I was only able to do that because I was anticipating some sort of crazy sacrifice each time. The fact that Magnus finds these mid game amazes me
That's because in his younger age he solved countless puzzles so he could spot the best moves in less time.
Replace 3 with 2 and I resemble that remark.
Same. Also I think any experienced player would have found number 3 and number 5. Both were easy checkmates if you are looking for it. The first is just godlike though.
The first one was so very sick. After he played it, I still didn’t see what the point was. Then the light goes off and I realize that yeah, he is a God.
Yes I saw some sacrofaces also, but didnt yet know im the shorth time how it creates the win.
He missed his most brilliant move of all time: 1.e4.
Dang that's deep
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Honestly, I think d4 is better, it doesnt leave black with much counterplay
Followed by 2. Ke2
@@paritosh4643 oh no that opening has too much power
Youre playing chess maybe thinking 2 moves ahead.
Magnus is thinking what he wants for dinner tonight 😂 he beat you when you sat across from him
On god sometime im improvising (i Always lose by the way) but i swear i will become better (why Not the best)
"Magnus Carlsen's 5 most impressive moves that the majority of You, chess lover in an open and huge video platform, could understand and don't feel dumb".
Thiago Barbosa
I'm one of those chess novices who watched this video and understood why those moves were impressive. But I'm also a fan computer chess, and even Stockfish 5 wouldn't have made those mistakes that Magnus capitalized on.
Thiago Barbosa it kind of makes me upset because i’m a novice player who started last week and i predicted all of these moves after pausing my video for about 10 seconds. i am still awful at chess, but these types of moves are pretty easy to predict. the hard ones are the more subtle ones that help with position
@@yoitsjimmy_ You've got to be kidding me! Under the pressure of the world championship??? Stop it.
Richard Delaney if you can’t channel out pressure to focus then you won’t be good enough to be a world champion. stop it.
Interesting Interesting Not sure why that makes you upset... all in all, these ARENT really Carlsen’s best moves. These are his most flashy and fun moves. All of them are unorthodox and are cool to look at. If you’re able to see the moves, congratulations, you’re able to solve 1200-ELO range puzzles. (also, on another note, I doubt you saw much beyond the first move, and couldn’t tell me exactly why the opponent couldn’t just do all of the moves that they eventually did to try and get out of the situation. Carlsen doesn’t just make a move because it looks good, he makes it because he sees all the possible moves for his opponent and knows that even if he plays perfectly, it’ll still work)
When you found every move: I am officially GM now
Found 3/5 myself. I’m almost as woke as Magnus now
I missed the 4th one which was the castle. The rest I was able to see but that was tricky and even with all of them, I found myself calling the man a fucking genius after I noticed them too
Did you people just find the sacrifices.. or the logic behind the sacrifices and next moves to play too? I mean, funding sacrifices is pointless even if that's brilliant move if you don't know what to move next
It's has been prophesied that one day Charlie will defeat Magnus, the final boss.
throbbers
I think the most difficult thing is to get the setup perfect to get to moves like these. Either way, it's incredible and i would never have thought of castling with the 1 move
I'm a beginner at chess, a 1200 player, and I found the last move. However...
1. I knew there WAS a winning move, which Magnus did not.
2. I was pretty sure Magnus was going to sacrifce his Queen since the move is regarded so clever.
3. I was pretty sure Magnus was going to check.
4. It still took me about 4 minutes to figure how I'd win after Qh6.
5. If I was in this position myself in a real game I would never have found the move or even looked for it.
What I learned is to imagine there is a brilliant move in any given position and spend some time looking for it.
Good luck playing blitz
I wonder how people start at 1200 when I started my rating was just 400 at the age of 10.
@@biglosergiraffe lmfaoo
You should do some puzzles, it is very helpful to learn how to find winning moves. This move is more spectacular than difficult to spot, because it exploits a basic idea: deviate one of the King's defenders (the g7 pawn) to a case where he won't help in defence and even prevent the King to escape. I'm quite used to puzzles and saw the move very quickly - I didn't need to pause the video. I think I would even have seen it during a blitz.
Im unrated and found all moves
I remember the queen sacrifice, some commentator covering live thought he'd blundered the game!
I could easily create a list with my 100 dumbest moves! :)
i'm sure we all could
Oof i once missed mate in one 🤣
Pls give the link of the video
...King sacrifice. :v
Lol
Who's here from charlie vs xqc 6 moves chess
Yeah.. How tf
Charlie is just a galaxy brained chess player. Hes the moist Grandmaster of the world.

Yeah Charlie has inadvertantly led me down the chess rabbit hole.

Magnus is the GOAT. No debating. He's too strong, too fast.
We know😴
Bruh this is nothing, watch the video where he plays 3 chess games simultaneously while being blindfolded.
@@awekeningbro1207 yeah ive seen it
no doubt about it. He is the most skilled chess player of all time and it's not even close
Frozen Viking It was more than just 3 games. He had a whole row of people like 8 games, blindfolded and won them all.
AMAZING games. And fantastic, fun, commentary Simon. Hope to see more of you. Thank you.
I actually spotted all of them after a little thinking apart from the king side castle which never entered my head!! I am only rated 1513 and blunder pieces all the time. It is a lot easier when you know you are looking for something that probably involves an unexpected sacrifice.
Yep, same here, only missed that one, I played the rook to the same square without castling
1500 is not low
The last one was my favorite of Magnus b/c I was watching that live
There was one game opening he just moved both knights back and forth, basically giving up four moves, and still won...
Search "Fischer's secret games"
@@LeventK Short denied that it was Fischer. Probably someone with an engine.
@@leadnitrate2194 i never said that was Fischer's games.
Lchess Titled arena, against a player called JseMartinez. It is bullet actually.
@@leadnitrate2194 no he didn't deny anything..also it was a bullet game..quite impossible to use engine in such a time format. In fact, Nigel short stressed that it most certainly was Fischer.
Smashing video Simon, subscribed. This is exactly the kind of thing we want to see!
I figured out a bunch of these. The last one actually is quite easy to spot tbh. And the third as well. But the first one was probably the single greatest move I’ve ever seen, and I would never have seen it. The move would never have even crossed my mind.
My favorite move by Magnus is from his game vs Nakamura in London 2015, his Kxf6 is one of the greatest moves I've ever witnessed.

The Man, the Myth, the Magnus
That moment when one of your top 5 best moves in your career is when you were 12 years old.
I love Simon’s analysis, so entertaining and informative
2:39 We're trying to get rid of the p0rn
the p0rn on b7 is strong hahaha
True true, but what does that have to do with the game?
@@guillermomoctezuma7756 it's a pun
@John Ruben Saragi thamks, yeah I know just continue joking
Lol ok
Love this series man! very entertaining by Simon! amazing editing too!
I saw several of these moves (but here we're in a situation where we know that a weird move wins the game so we consider moves that we would probably ignore in normal games - and also I came back recently to chess and train mostly with puzzles rather than games so I guess I develop my skills in that domain more than if I just played casual games).
Qxa7 was a move I considered but I haven't found the whole idea behind it. It was definitely one of the most difficult ones to spot.
I saw Ba6 almost immediately. I haven't taken the time to do all the calculations but I was pretty convinced that it was winning on the spot. However I'm not sure that I would have found Rc1.
I saw immediately that Qh5 led to mate (but again, I don't know if I would have thought about this move in normal conditions - I don't search for mates at every move I make...).
O-O was probably the most difficult move to spot (of course I thought about it when you gave a hint). I didn't find out how to exploit White's weaknesses.
I analysed Qh6+ while Magnus' head was on screen and saw it led to mate. This is for sure the most beautiful move: a queen sac to deviate a simple pawn and nail Black's coffin with it.
Simon Williams is always entertaining and excellent at teaching chess.
Keep these vids coming! When are we getting Capablanca's best 5 moves? 🙂
@2:36 not only did I see the move in seconds, I also recognised that he got this idea from Shirov in his win against Topalov with "the best chess move ever played".
When
as a very new chess player, that last one really caught me off guard.
never in my entire life would I think of that move, jeeez
dude is monster
do chess puzzles. helps you recognize combinations. i am new 600 ish and saw that one and two others in seconds or within a minute. i remember the puzzle exactly that came to mind seeing the last position. goes without saying though that getting to that move in a game is a different beast...
Love your vids. Your commentary is so funny and enjoyable
That blindfold game gave me goosegumps
@Big Smoke he plays it without seeing the board
@Big Smoke ya
@Big Smoke ja
editing on point!
Found you finally
U play chess?
I like them all! Great content, thanks for putting this together.
It was like those chess puzzles where you have to sacrifice the most important pieces to win. These are not subtle moves, these are kinda easily detectable fireball moves.
We love your commentary! So funny
Yes. My favourite series is back
Karjakin: its mate next move!
Carlsen: *adorable*
Those top 5 moves are really one more beautiful than the other, with a special exclamation mark for that incredible, astonishing kingside castle vs Karjakin; but the top 1 move is really the best in my opinion. Not only it's a Queen sacrifice, not only it's a fantastic mate in two which involves both the remaining white heavy pieces in a wonderful unique disposition over the board, but it's also really the unique winning move for white in that position. All other moves are losing, due to those two threatened mates by the black Queen.
Funniest Magnus game I can remember is when he played his Dad who was 600 rating points lower than him
I felt like an absolute genius for figuring out the one with the bishop.
The blindfold one is amazing, i cant even imagine!
Oof moment
Awesome! I never miss any your videos... Next.... Capablanca, right?
Such beautiful moves by Carlsen❤️, shows y he is the best
I'm impressed with myself that I actually figured the last one lol.
3:56 i have a counter on that move
Just sacrifice, sacrifice is the best thing to win
Put bishop to f6 and if she move the other pawn
Move the rock to c8 easy is that right
Mikhail Tal: Hold my beer
The last one has value for what was at stakes at that moment when a simple draw would have secured a title that seemed threatened only a few days before...
The first one also is interesting as the weak back rank motive is exploited unusually.
Other than that these are just flashy combinations really easy to find for any master or above. The inhuman strengh of magnus lies in his uncanny ability to always create problems to his opponents. Hence I find that some decisions he takes are more stunning than these flashy shots. They are ofc quite nice though
That castle move was also nice. Couldn't see it. The other ones were obvious
4:13 I was actually able to see Qh5. I feel proud now
Great content! presented in a great way
Please do more
hell yes Simon, hell yes mate!
got the third one. officially as good as magnus
Whenever my chess couch asks me to look on the chessboard, I start thinking for minutes Lol
I was just shocked after looking at 5th move.. It was OP af 🔥🔥
To all of you who says you found the moves, I bet you'd never have found them if you didn't know in forehand there was a brilliant move. Carlsen is just the best of all time. GOAT!!
Noone can find these moves, before he played them, even the strongest GMs , he defeates the strongest players like father defeat his kid teaching him playing chess.And this in a decisive match for the world title against the second strongest player in that moment. I´ve never seen something like that. The only man has ever played such creasy moves and destroyed his opponents was Morphy. There are many brilliant world champions, but they can not compare with Magnus, and Kasparov has had already a machine that was stronger as any human, he was a devastating attacker, Magnus is also a one, but Magnus has that brilliancy and genius touch.He saves the games out of nothing…..so many times saw Magnus in a lot worse, hopeless possitions and he turns it upside down.None was ever able to do so. I am so glad that such a good man can play the strongest chess ever!
@@aleksandaraleksandrov412 you're forgetting Fischer..I'd vote Fischer above Magnus..and Morphy above all of them.
GOAT Title deserving player is Bobby Fischer
@@technicalmaster-mind you're delusional
Magnus is the strongest chess player of all time for sure . As time progresses humans in general gain a greater understanding of the game.
Fischer is the GOAT.
@@kelvin303 GOAT of being overrated, sure.
Thanks a lot Simon ! Brillant !!!
The quote from Snatch was brilliant for that situation lol
I found 3 of these immediately without blinking lol, and Im a 1400 :D I guess it's like puzzle rush! when you tell someone there is a good move here they find it! problem is playing it in a real game !
exactly
Like when I watch a video titled "amazing queen sacrifice" then the commentary asks you to find the winning move. 😂 But looking at every position reached during a game as if it was a tactical puzzle is not easy at all. Nothing, nothing, nothing x10, "OMG how did I miss that"
I'm a 1600 and I found none lol
@@nahimaakter7156 I'm 1638 in rapid and 1588 in blitz. Grandmasters and engines make me feel like I'm 400 😂
You are here because at first you searched queen's gambit, and you are in a loop of cheeses videos, don't worry, me too 😂.
The 5th game was the only one that i found the wining move and it felt great. also learned some new moves from the first 4.
I was too lazy to calculate _thoroughly_ that each move would be the best, but I found all five solutions fairly positively 😁
I've always believed that the difference between a beginner and a (grand)master was mostly a mix of training, knowledge, and experience. I clearly have underestimated the power of qualities like boldness and imagination. For these games, I was not able to guess ANY of the final strategies used by Magnus, before they were presented by GM Williams. Not a one. In Star Trek terms, if Magnus Carlsen was a Q, then I would be.....a red shirt.
Magnus is the greatest chess player ever.
no. Fisher!
Best but not greatest because the succeeders are always better than the predecessors
Kasparov
@Craig Yates How did you know that sir 😃
Craig Yates computer analysis also say Capablanca is the best player
last one is my fav, because of the concept ( it was world championship match)
My beautiful game with Magnus I recently watched is with Anish giri.. In meltwater chess tour it's one of he's master piece..
But my most beautiful game I watched was the game between Vishi Anand against Ian nepomniachi grunfield system..which is now popularized or so called vishi's gambit an attack so brutal it's my very best chess memory.. 😃
Mikhail Tal's 5 most brilliant moves ???
I think you take away from how good Magnus is by putting in 2 mates in 2. There are plenty of mates on the side of the board where you sack 1 or 2 pieces...
Magnus: *takes time to think for a move*
Le Queen, Ah my time has come
Loved the Chess Hoover!......May I suggest the five best illustrations of the Chess Hoover by various Grandmasters!
Great video!
But, I don't think that these are Carlsen's greatests moves.
Carlsen has played some incredible engine moves over the course of his career (as he still does) that would require 10 minutes of analysis by Ginger for us to understand them. Moves like these should have been included but they weren't because of their nature.
The nature of those moves is always positional and defensive - moves that people find boring (although I don't really believe that). Moves that there is no way for the opponent to understand or even think - moves like the ones computers make that weak chess players like ourselves find "stupid" or "dumb".
It's these boring dumb defensive moves that earned Carlsen his title of the greatest of all times (which I totally agree with) and these moves should have been included but since these videos are mostly about moves that can shock you visually - Carlsen's greatest movies haven't been included.
These were just simple tactics I wanna see a good deep move like 20 moves in depth wise
Watch mikhail tal videos. Very deep
Atul Sharma I’m talking about our world champion practically the best chess player in the world and we were shown moderately hard tactics
"fluffy little queens." -Simon Williams
"Am I a joke to you?" - Queens
Waiting for a new version of this video featuring his game against Fedoseev.
If there was a dog in the background I’d be happier
JM Adventures and a bit more “so what’s the idea here?”
I saw 4 out of the 5 moves so I thought I was chess genius. Then I hopped in a game and blundered my queen and lost, Chess is not for everyone
Chess is for everyone, you just need to invest some time in it.
Im actually learnd something new. Thanks for that.
Begginer player here:
1. Never would thought about it. Brilliant!
2. Not too flashy, but quick math needed
3. Easy to spot, I thought about it in 5-10 seconds (weak king + knight controling his escape... Can I check him? Yes I can)
4. Didn't thought about it
5. I spot it easily, but probably because it's the "Most brilliant chess moves". I saw it there is no hope on white side and also that king is in very dangerous spot, so i thought about that sacrifice. Still very impressive move, but that wasn't too hard to find (well... in comfortable spot behind computer of course)
I found all of it does that mean i'm a grandmaster? 🤣
I figured out the last one: Qh6+ but I was lost on the rest of them.
Opponent after taking queen : I am one more move away from victory
Magnus Carlson with rocking rock : HOLD MY ROCK, ON YOUR LEFT...CHECKMATE
i saw that last one immidiately and im proud of myself
We have all seen the last move from Agadmantor
Haha truth :D
Well, even though im 950, i found 1, 2, 4 and 5. The problem is that i just considered 1,2 and 4 because i thought that it would lose the exchange or do nothing at the end... Also i wouldnt notice if the video didnt literally say that there is something special to find. I saw 5 because i watched a video about that game, i still didnt know if it would end great but i just remembered that it would... No clue about 3 btw.
I got all 5 of them correct. Although, one move he did, I would have first moved a rook to take the pawn, which was a waste of a turn, since it was checkmate anyway. The final move was probably my favorite, since I've also done it before. The enemy never considers the pawn to be a threat, but if it blocks off your only diagonal and I have a rook flanking, then it is as good as a bishop.
I like how "little jealous" he is with all those expressions!!
2, 3, and 4 are kind of easy.
Agreed. However, all the moves are easy to find if you are told in advance that there is a winning move and you take your time to find it. The forced mate in 2 in the 5th example is then quite straight-forward. What makes these moves impressive is that they have not just been discovered, they have been "invented". And in the case of the 5th example, it has been invented under time pressure in a world championship match.
@@Minkouski it played in 1950 before i just don't remember the game
Commentary is fine. This is Ginger GM, you babies can just click away.
i got two of these -- stoked.
Damn the thumbnail is good you can look how good the queen sacrifice is just to lure the rook and checkmate the queen
