    What people don’t understand is chess is about squares and what pieces are them. Generalize the pawn movements and look at where your major pieces are.

    "Chess is an exciting game. Very often, when very close to winning or saving the game, famous grandmasters miss golden opportunities and totally fail." – Draw! The Art of the Half-Point. in Chess by Leonid Verkhovsky (foreword by Mikhail Tal)

    I hope Fabi can take some comfort from the fact that he is far from the only world-class grandmaster to suffer an epic fail. The man is in good company.

    gg to Gukesh, the D stands for Deserving. And well played to all of the candidates; warriors and legends all.

    Danny laughing at Qh9 is the moment of the day!

    Strange that the top three veterans tie for second place. wild competition

    Fabi versus Nepo, one of the most gripping games I have seen. Long may they both continue.

    A round of applause for Fabi and Ian might not be worth the candidates title. But it comes close. Very close. Respect.

    Womens tournament should be canceled. Heres why:
    1)open tournament exists in which women can participate
    2)2500 rated man will not earn anything whereas 2500 rated female players are playing in candidates lol
    3) judit polgar was the only good female player to ever exist, why? Coz she played in open

    Fabi-Ian was one hell of a game! I'm still in my feels from the emotional rollercoaster.

    That h4 by ian need to have a different category for Super dooper Brilliancy

    I wish the commentary would stop when the players discuss the game at the end, it would be so fruitful to hear their first thoughts!

    Indian's deserve nothing…they are always harassing other religions in their country specially muslims ….what ever you do you won't be a goob man Indian's👎

    Really wish the commentators had just stayed quiet after the Fabi Ian draw. Such unnecessary dialogue, I just wanted to hear them talk

    Biased commemtary. Quite unenjoyable when you have only American commentators and theyre obviously rooting for the american players and disregarding the others. Commentators are commentators, not there to act like nationalists and scream no when a non-american player makes a good move or an American fumbles. Quite ruined the experience for all the non-American viewers to have to watch from such a biased view point…

    I feel bad for fabi, Ian and Hikaru
    They were all close.

    Congratulations ❤❤❤ and All of Indian players, like ur Super Master Visszzy

    Poor coverage. The screen layout is awful. Very confusing. No information is really accessible in a reasonable amount of perception time. Why was it changed from the excellent layout that was used in previous tournaments? Only Danny Rensch and perhaps Robert really get how commentary should be done. Most of us are quite intelligent, but we are not neurodivergent chess phenoms. The analysis was way too fast and did not focus enough on the basics of the position. There is no point to rattle off variations as fast as only an IM can follow. Naroditsky actually said on his Twitch channel that Danny and ? said it should be "dumbed down". That is idiotic and insulting and deserving of correction. I doubt Danny used those words. Even if he did, to repeat it that way is unprofessional and out of touch. We are all smart enough to understand any line if it is expressed clearly. Failure of communication is usually the fault of the speaker. And, come on, all male commentators?! Any of the usual female commentators would have been better than some of you. This coverage need not be directed at other GM's. They will do their own analysis. And yes, human aspects ARE important.

    Please someone explain at 5:29:50 why is qb2 not the best move instead of ka7. With qb2 its a win for black right?

    I wish the games were analysed live without the engine or evaluation bar for help. Maybe then some of us can appreciate how great these players are

    3:3:32 here Ian would walk into a pin

    ….
    …..
    ….

    Nice freestyle

    Anybody have link to the final outro music as the commentators do the final wrap up ?thanks in advance

    Top coment should not be a spoiler, pleace vote up!

    One of the best chess tournaments ever

    Prag has 81% accuracy in his lost to Gukesh, compared to Prag's other games with 95%+ accuracy. Yeah. We all know.

    I've been following top level chess since Magnus became World Champion in 2013, his match against Vishy captivated me. This is one of the most painful losses in a game that I have seen in those years. After the game, Ian told Fabi "I'm really sorry", and Fabi replied, chuckling "My fault". Truly a painful moment. I wanted Fabi to win cause he's not that young anymore, and he really deserves another shot at the crown, being number 2 in the world for so long, but chess is a brutal game that doesn't care about anything, except for good moves on the chessboard.

    bring back robert i can't stand listening to this guy

    I was here 🎉
    Gukesh is gonna become the World Champ!

    5:40 and still a draw ! Are you kidding me come on engine 😂😂😂
