Aravindh, what a star player

[@Basics1234-z1z]

Arvindh Gained The Respect He Deserved!!!❤🎉, Great Play By Each player In The Tournament

[@sh2144]

❤

[@TheSre007]

Until today we were thinking Arjun But aravind came out of syllabus and clutched it 🗿

[@rionvaletaala4666]

Aravindh is in clutch!! All of his first 5 games were drawn; well, I thought, "he's not gonna win this", but he came out of nowhere and won the last 2 classical games and won the tiebreaks! But the one that's special to me is Arjun's play; his 3 won games are unbelievable; even in his last game against MVL, he had 2 Queens on the board! So much thrill this year! Awesome tournament.

[@akhyashankar248]

Well... literally expected Arjun to win and qualify for Candidates! But alas, gotta wait a bit more...

[@rsr22.3]

Sagar it was a good commentary overall but please, for professional tournaments when streaming onsite, could you avoid eating or at least eating on mic (you can mute the mic) - we have to listen to good being chewed and crunched which is not professional and also not great when trying to pay attention to the board. Thanks

[@walksthroughlife900]

Yes - love Sagar, but that is distracting (and also seems to be a regular thing)

[@anubratadutta3342]

Congratulations, Aravindh !!

[@vivekmaddy1063]

We need to get the Presentation Ceremony in the Same Live stream, Similar to Other sports. You could have highlights playing until then, Go through some important moments of the Tournament with Experts, Have interviews and thoughts of players, till Everything is setup for the presentation. The Tournament feels incomplete without the Presentation and also Fans in the venue cheering for the winner

[@gvaibhavreddy9135]

Sagar ji aap ke bina chessbase nahi hai ❤🎉😊

[@Debbie2324]

Aravindh really deserves this - his mom will be so proud ❤🧿 👏👏👏

[@awscci7294]

Excellent and Energetic and Lovely Streaming and Commentary Quality

[@subramanianrs318]

Aravind joins the Chennai boys' elite league! 🎉❤

[@chinthalapatyzimran8800]

Waiting to watch a game between Gukesh and Aravind

[@ekarshvats6904]

Well deserved Aravind

[@shaleenrandheliya4452]

Now chances of arjun to qualify through FIDE circuit are pretty slim since caruana has 2 more tournaments points to register. Arjun got jinxed in the end ..was really hoping for his victory.Which is the next tournament arjun is playing?

[@snide1574]

caruana Will also qualify by rating,cause Magnus wont play

[@Striker-xx5cu]

​@@snide1574rating spot does not have any priority, if fabi qualifies through circuit this year and crosses 2900 elo next year, he will just get the circuit spot.

[@tecksmith9893]

​@@Striker-xx5cu 2900 impossible

[@shaleenrandheliya4452]

@@Striker-xx5cu yes that’s my concern.

[@PEACE_LUVR]

The talk between Arjun vs Levon made Levon relaxed…and in my opinion he could play more natural game..

[@RichZablan]

I felt Aravindh was like Magnus, the Master of End Game. He just goes with a simple opening and then in the last 20 moves, he goes for the kill.

[@Dybbouk]

MVL often gets himself into difficult situations and then gets out of them

[@sushilganesh07]

Arvind’s breaking point in his career!

[@jazzydriven2784]

Breaking point????? it means the point where he gives away, under stress!!!!!!

[@pankajsinghparihar5168]

Breakthrough point.

[@sabari1979]

Aravindh ❤... Silent killer.

[@AnandPrem-b3p]

Arvind super ...whistle podu!!

[@jazzydriven2784]

Arjun should not hv fallen for Arononian's trick....Ideally Arjun wd want to be in the zone brfore the game....and not chatting his way away....

[@jhakaasplayer6453]

Can Arjun not qualify for candidates via the rating spot

[@subhankarbhadra781]

If he maintains his rating then yes

Does adhiban hates Arjun or what ??? Just asking generally as I seen some people in live chat talking about this ..

Where is pragg

[@Butterfly-t3z]

Pragg didn't not play this tournament

[@AiMusicStudio_dhruva]

Sagar you are shouting too much today .. hard to keep up with the stream.

[@universe6735]

So will Arjun get into 2800+ fide list this month or no?

[@snide1574]

yes, he's 2800.x It depends if he Will play more games this month

[@universe6735]

@snide1574 I don't think he's playing any more classical tournament this month

[@snide1574]

@@universe6735 then now he Is 2800.something

[@DJaY_BS]

​@@universe6735 isn't he playing tata steel next?

[@universe6735]

@DJaY_BS I guess and I hope so. Because I really want to seem in 2800+ in published fide rating.

Haha nooob Arjun

[@kaustubhgarg9662]

2800 noob 😮

[@critical_analysis]

only people below elo of 1500 will say anything like that:)

[@mujeebgaming7912]

@critical_analysis a much less rated player won the tournament.. Arjun second buhahahahah .. i didn't see him playing in a higher tournament with Magnus, hikaru and fabi , he earn rating in some small tournamentsm

[@kaustubhgarg9662]

@@mujeebgaming7912 i know where you are coming from shill. I can see your channel bhaijaan.

[@critical_analysis]

@@mujeebgaming7912 OK, hahaha .. OK. Arjun himself is a young man and needs much experience. Only a really inferior person of very damaged upbringing can say such words to any player who is putting such efforts. People like you would have said the same thing about Aravindh too in the past, but today he won it and showed his mettle. I observed only people with damaged upbringing or having inferiority complex or psychological issues would say such things about these exceptional players. Because, deep down you know you will never even reach their level in your lifetime. So, as a psychological pin, you up your ego by comparing them to others. I have done enough research on people like you on internet. Got it? This applies not only to you, but your fellow brethren who insult top class players or top class individuals in any field. Time for you to get a psychological counselling before it gets too late to rectify.
