The 2022 FIDE Candidates Tournament is an 8-player double round-robin that will decide Magnus Carlsen's challenger for the 2023 World Championship match, or, if Magnus decides not to play the match, the two players who will battle it out for the title. There is also a €48,000 top prize at stake. The venue is the Palacio de Santoña, Madrid, from June 17th to July 4th. If players tie for 1st place there will be a playoff on July 5th. No draw offers are allowed before Black's 40th move.
The players get 2 hours for 40 moves, then 1 hour for the next 20 moves, then 15 minutes for the rest of the game, with a 30-second increment only from move 61. A playoff will feature two 15+10 rapid games followed, if needed, by two 3+2 blitz games. If still tied the players will keep playing single blitz games until one of them wins. If more than two players tie for 1st there will be a mini round-robin. Official website: worldchampionshipcycle.fide.com

Ding did not move his light square bishop once for the entire game... What an astounding victory

[@Shreyy17]

damn forgot about that

[@menpower1]

Report white bishop for AFK, left all his fellow pieces to die

[@Michael-rb2xy]

[@anilbista7445]

Rapport was not messing around and started attacking like a madman in this game.

[@vbucksroblox7368]

@Redstones Lover hahahah

[@worsethanjoerogan8061]

He's probably the most exciting player in this tournament. Nepo is great but kinda boring

[@rbcdelta6561]

Full props to Richard for his fighting chess and to Ding for his excellent defense. High quality play under pressure - a credit to both. Thanks for the excellent recaps!!

[@AJ-sb3eg]

A knight on the rim is dim. Two knights on the rim is ding. 2:23

[@Beerfish777]

Rapport deserves a Mr. Barnes head for that game. I could not figure out what he was doing right at the end though moving his king way up the board into no mans land.

[@vijaygarv]

I’m a simple man, I’m watching candidates chess, I see Agadmator upload, I watch him then.

[@tomarintomarin9520]

Someone remind Ding about his light square bishop

[@eclipseeffigy]

Incredible. Ding's position looked terrible with his king wide open and light square bishop locked on the starting square. But somehow he was better and converted it!

[@1Mayoii]

the way ding is looking at kostenuik in the image is kinda funny to me lmao

[@nadimahmad2902]

Sometimes i wish chess engines didnt exist . No theory , no memorized lines , no nothing . Just moves on instinct and letting the chips fall where they may .

[@tubax926]

There would still be lots of memorization even if there were no engines. Lines would be studied according to which lines lose or win the most and you'll have to remember how to play sharply. But yes engines do speed up the progression really quickly which will make us run out of fun games in a few decades since they'll all be mostly repeated and everyone might know how to force draws.

[@cygnustsp]

@@tubax926 these things happen in cycles... Remember in the mid 90s how hockey was all about zones and defense, clogging up the middle. The game progresses, so will chess. There's unlimited opportunities as long as humans are playing.

[@menpower1]

No theory, no memorized lines without engines? You just insulted Capablanca, Alekhine, Nimzowitsch, Philidor, López, Caro, Kann, Morphy and basically every chess master pre-1950

[@tubax926]

@@cygnustsp hockey is a much more chaotic game with much more involvement of confidence, teamwork and physical skill. You cannot compare it to chess. Chess is quite simple at the fundamentals: look for the few promising moves and calculate them if you can, see how you can punish your opponent for bad plays, and be aware of your weaknesses and defend well. These concepts will just branch out over time to become more complicated but that's the essence of chess. You play, study the games, and see how you can improve your thought process in different positions. You pick up techniques from other plays and implement them into your games. That's it, that's how chess progresses as a whole. Engines will just speed up that progress by a whole ton.

[@GeraldM_inNC]

You do realize that an engine is bluetoothing its moves to Magnus's brain?

[@meshackomariba1110]

seemingly you shouldnt allow Ding to create a passed pawn or pawns..once he creates a protected passed pawn he seems unbeatable

[@the5tigers]

For the people saying he didn't move his Bishop, yes he is aware. Game is too easy for him, so he decided to play with a handicap, bishop odds.

[@Life-Sky]

8:22 Interestingly Ding played the only move that wins (-1.2), the move I thought was winning was Nf2+, Kh2, Nxe4 (doing a desperado with the knight) ,after Qxe4 then take the pawn with axb5, however White is winning with Qa8!! (+3.7), Qa7 or Be7 are both unstoppable (attacking the bishop that is pinned). Turns out Black can't defend his bishop enough times, and can't unpin as the light bishop on c8 would be undefended. >Ding had to calculate all of it, seeing the shocking Qa8 from that position, what a boss.

[@danielgautreau161]

Wow. Another inferior line, similar to the game, is ..., Be6 / Qxd3, Qxd3 / Rxd3, ab5 / Rc3!, Kd6 ( not ...,Kc6 / Be7 nor ...,Kb6 / Bd8+, Kc6 / Be7) and now Be7+!, Kxe7 / Rxc5, Bd7 / Rxe5+ .

[@mbm6048]

Interestingly Ding has not moved his c8 Bishop the entire game lol 😄

[@savage1971]

Ironically even though other channels are broadcasting the matches.... I choose to watch them only here....great channel. No issues with you posting late hehe...normally one of the best parts of my day .

[@matthewarmstrong1521]

Love the update on the dog

[@twentyrothmans7308]

Medo, the wonder dog!

[@woodensurfer]

This is a very remarkable game from many perspectives. Ding's treatment of the QR and Light B. Rapport's N sac, Ding getting two pieces for a R, and then the most remarkable is Ding's sac of the N to exchange Qs and going into a won position an exchange down with one pawn as compensation.

[@savage1971]

honestly the best game ive seen...

[@jonathancauley5345]

So Alieza still has chances knowing he’s not dead last but tied last. I will be happy if he gets or ties for second. But it does look like more Nepo and Magnus for title than what my preference is. Well……anything is possible

[@yashasvitathya]

I'll definitely mind about the delay of posting this video 😜. Of course not 🤗🙏🏽❤️

[@Oneshot752]

Agad, i love all your videos, great work! But I'm just curious, why you always said "sorry about that" because i didn't notice something bothering

For the longest time I thought Ruy Lopez is actually real opus

We should be wearing Victorian clothing to watch this game.

[@BennyKleykens]

Nice game!

[@romo7598]

Rapport messed up at 4:32.. should have taken with the bishop!! Also he blundered the endgame.. giving up that knight really cost him as well.

[@MrK623]

2:21 After g5 Ng5, hg5,Bg5 if Rg8 either h4 or Bh4 and the white Q is coming to f3 to reclaim the piece as the black B can't interpose.

[@danielgautreau161]

You should have mentioned how Black wins at 11:01 (after ..., Kc2) if White plays Ka3 stopping b2. Black plays Bb7 and takes the P on g2 and then Bd5 and Bg8 (Bg8 is not really needed) and then Black simply plays h5 and h4.

[@andrew_owens7680]

If you're wondering where my dog is, pause the video and see if you can figure it out. Otherwise,...

[@willu842]

Isn't a much better move at the pause the video moment knight to f2? That comes with check, he has to move up to H2 and then it's not too hard to trap with the queen and mate him. Can someone explain why that isn't an option?

[@shacharrachmany1102]

11:01 Why not King a3 protecting the b2 square?

[@mirsadajdari]

Zugzwang and if the Bishop moves anywhere u defend with Bishop e6 and gobble all the other pawns on the kingside

[@rumaulia2709]

Bb7, Bxg2, push the pawns and one of them will queen faster than white's pawn

[@Life-Sky]

It doesn't matter, basically Ding lightsquare bishop is gonna move for the first time and pick up the g2 pawn, then push both of it's pawns and create a passed pawn. The bishop can't control both pawns and will be overwhelmed (you push one to promote, the bishop captures it, then promote the other)

[@tonyeidoniboye8135]

Hmm. Nice

Have you noticed most of the photographs have been at crazy angles so either the photographers are all drunk or Rapport had the disadvantage of having to move his pieces up a steep incline unless of course we have been tricked and this tournament was actually held on a boat.

Rapport had queen to B3 for so long and didn't find it!

[@divorceehighschooler]

@2:47, shouldn't white play Nxe5 dxe5, and then Bxe5 forking two rooks? And even if instead of dxe5, black takes Nxg3, white replies with Nxf7, Kxf7, and hxg3. Finally black will be pawn up but white would be better coz of black king wide open

[@Life-Sky]

The thing is white has no pieces nearby to attack, when you sacrifice a piece and your last move is hxg3 it shows that you don't have enough initiative, and while it could be difficult for a sub 1800 player to defend, to a 2700+ it's a free win.
