0:00 Hello Everyone
00:49 Game Starts!

World Chess Champion Ding Liren returns for the 86th edition of the Tata Steel Masters, a 14-player single round-robin taking place from 13-28 January in Wijk aan Zee, the Netherlands.

The time control is 100 minutes for 40 moves, followed by 50 minutes for the rest of the game, with a 30-second increment per move from move 1. A tie for first place will be decided by two blitz (3+2) games. If still tied, the players keep playing single “sudden death” games where White gets 2.5 minutes and Black 3 minutes until one side wins. The monetary prizes will be shared evenly. Official website:

    Also, normally there are bad bishops in chess. But here, Liren's knight turned into a BAD KNIGHT. Its very frustrating when that happens. From personal experience, you feel like you are always behind the eight ball. No matter where you move your knights, it never is able to get into action.

    There is a huge difference between Carlsen and Liren in terms of calibre. Carlsen would never lose such a simple knight and pawn ending. It doesn't look too good for the game of chess, that their world champion, cant even defend such a simple looking position.

    Hello,
    I would like to request you for Kramnik vs Kasparov in 2000 championship

    43) f4? In my opinion that's the losing move

    Ding previously said that he has to overcome a lot of thoughts in his mind .. he will take some time to deliver his best as happened in candidates 2022, world champion ship 2023,..yes not in good shape as of now

    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

    2nd: Nice job Pragg for beating Liren, who sides with Magnus, Garry & Veselin over Wesley, Bobby & Vlad Kramnik.

    Ian Nepomniachtchi rules.
    Liren Ding sucks.

    Wesley So rules.
    Magnus Carlsen sucks.

    Liren's STUPID LIST of role models :
    FlNsFKeq-iE

    A-Veselin Topalov
    B-Garry Kasparov
    C-Magnus Carlsen

    Explanation :

    A-Veselin Topalov – baselessly accused Jewish Vlad

    B-Garry Kasparov – treasonously cheated fellow Jewish Europeans Judit & Alexei Shirov, cheated Vishy Anand & 2 Americans MSN & Daniel Edelman and baselessly accused American IBM re Deep Blue

    C-Magnus Carlsen
    – cheated Jewish-or-American players Anish Giri, Wesley So, Alexandra Kosteniuk, Sergey Karjakin, Danya Naroditsky TWICE & Ian Nepomniachtchi
    – baselessly accused Jewish American Hans, Jewish Alisher & American Alice Lee ( source is PgHQdOocI84 )
    – Also cheated gentile non-American Alireza but Alireza was becoming French whose top player prior is Jewish MVL.

    Why wouldn't Nepo like the opposite?

    A-Vladimir Kramnik
    B-Bobby Fischer
    C-Wesley So

    Explanation :

    A-Vladimir Kramnik – easily beat Veselin 2006 WCC (1 game was forfeited!)

    B-Bobby Fischer – would've easily beat Anatoly Karpov 1975 WCC under either rules and then Anatoly drew a million times w/ Garry

    C-Wesley So – easily beat Magnus 2019 WFRCC 13.5-2.5 including win 3x classical games in a row and is the only player better than Nepo in classical 9LX.

    Aaaaand then 2023Jul chess idols – Wenjun chose Liren while Tingjie chose Vishy Anand & Vlad Kramnik:
    pbM0wG8wNLg

    Tingjie Lei rules.
    Wenjun Ju sucks.

    Hence:

    Good guys vs Bad guys

    – Axis of Evil (Good guys?)

    wesley so, hans niemann, bobby fischer, sergey karjakin, vlad kramnik (still! See below), ian nepomniachtchi, alireza firouzja, nodirbek abdusattorov, andrii baryshpolets, vishy anand, jan-krzysztof duda, chesscube, Sergey's hypothetical pure 9LX parallel, christopher yoo, leela, ferdinand marcos sr, ben johnson of perpetual chess podcast(?), elon musk(?), gata kamsky, donald trump, andrew tate

    – Allies of Evil (Bad guys?)

    magnus carlsen, hikaru nakamura, garry kasparov, daniil dubov, veselin topalov, liren ding, aryan tari, vincent keymer, arkady dvorkovich, peter heine nielsen, richárd rapport, PCA, FIDE, andrew tang, stockfish, prospero pichay jr, lex fridman(?), mark zuckerberg(?), alejandro ramirez, george bush, piers morgan

    – axis of evil (female) (good girls?)

    tingjie lei (or paikidze), janelle frayna, dina belenkaya, lotis key, sara khadem (or carissa yip), robbi jade lew

    – allies of evil (female) (bad girls?)

    wenjun ju, bella khotenashvili, andrea botez, leny so, atousa pourkashiyan – nakamura, nemo zhou

    Re Vlad :

    I view Vlad's accusation of Hans similar to Bobby's accusation of Anatoly Karpov & Wesley's wanting Sergey to not be in the 2022 candidates – it's a good guy fighting another good guy. The real bad guy in each respective case is Magnus, Garry & Magnus again. Tsk tsk. It's sad Vlad/Bobby/Wesley didn't realise that Magnus/Garry/Magnus is far more evil than Hans/Anatoly/Hans. Wait, I think Bobby did. Not sure. I think Bobby hated Garry more than Anatoly, but maybe not by much more.

    Wesley So on Lex Fridman

    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.

    Ding dong, the king is dead.
    Pragg completely owns Ding.

    why is ding playing 1.e4 ? Last year was understandable as he was hiding his prep of WC match. He has always been 1.c4 or 1.d4 player.

    I think Ding doesn't have the mentality to be a world chess champion, just like Nepo doesn't to become one.

    9:22 Knight B to d3 and white would get a free pawn right?

    Was ding in time trouble at all in this game like when he made those few inaccuracies in the end game? Congrats to prag. Super strong and solid. Especially for such a young player.

    Chess is defined as a game between two players vying for the perfect moment to play b4.

    Ding is world champion in name only, he is not even a top 3 player

    Pragg inspires me and depresses me at the same time…the kind of work he has put in over the last 10 years to be this good especially in blindfold calculation makes me stick to my lane…

    Ding's main weapon is d4. E4 is not his forte. He will use it to defend his title

    Of course you have to play B4. The world champion can learn a lot watching your channel

    Cheers for the video, mate!
    Always want to understand what Praggnanandhaa does do well but obviously it's way above my level 😂

    Hopefully can understand if you keep making great videos like this!

    Gukesh is out of focus since he became Indian no1.

    deja vu, ding beats gukesh and then gets beaten by prag

    I now understand why din went into hiding, He wasn't good enough to be world champion. Very mediocre play since his return.

    Agadmator trusting in pragg abilities since 2015-16 and pragg not disappointing him.

    There is a proverb in Tamil "Ilam kandru bayam ariyadhu".. The young calf does not fear even the tiger

    Sometimes I just start this to enjoy the 'it was in this moment that he resigned' line even when I have already watched the game

    No matter how strong you are there is always an asian better than you.

    If I were Ding, holding the world champion title would mean almost nothing as long as Magnus was still around.

    Ding experimenting lines and losing is not a big deal. What a chad.

    I wiil play my own moves not like the previous champ hahha

    🤣

    Pragg is getting highly motivated when he play against super strong players. Just how carlsen used to do so when he was young.

    Isnt it obvious that he won….pragg is upgraded he now has 4 eyes.
    Beware

    This was a weird one. It seems like ding willingly went down a losing line… i wonder what he missed

    After magnus and ananda, PRAG is new KING SLAYER

    Hopefully for Ding this was just rust. It was accurate play by Pragg who capitalised on Ding's mistakes and fully deserved to win, but this shouldn't have been a difficult defense for a top player.
