Arjun Erigaisi takes on Magnus Carlsen slayer | Qatar Masters Open 2024

[@chesspeople89]

If Arjun wins todays match - He crosses Fabi If he draws - Fabi is still ahead After this only world rapid and blitz is left(for fide circuit) where its very difficult to finish higher

[@onlygamingtutorial6294]

Can you explain more about fide circuit Why we comparing with fabi I know he is ahead but for candidates there will be 8 players na

[@AV-kr1do]

​@@onlygamingtutorial6294There is one video of sagar he has explained nicely ...

[@pallhouvum7114]

​@@onlygamingtutorial6294The one who finishes top of the Fide circuit Points table for 2024 qualifies as the 1st player to the candidates 2026. There are other ways to qualify for the remaining 7 spots. Rating quota, Fide Grand Swiss, Fide world Cup, Fide circuit cycle 2025

[@Creator0369]

​@@onlygamingtutorial6294 There is a candidate spot whoever is 1st in fide circuit

[@avinashvinukonda1347]

​@@onlygamingtutorial6294 there's one recent video in this channel only explaining Arjun vs Fabi.

[@RajanSadhukhan]

Difference between a grand master and a super grandmaster 🗿

[@sathiyendrannishan3842]

[@GangireddyKotlo]

He will definitely be in candidates through ratings or by fide circuit

[@Hudirhbb]

Arjun op ! ❤

[@kanjitramchiary7183]

Sagar Sir, Please upload the game between Arjun Erigaisi vs Andrey Esipenko as per possible...I need to know whether Arjun will be qualified for Candidate 2026 after beating Esipenko or not.

[@amimusic028]

I can say . I see the style of magnus in pragg . So i believe he will be champion one day and while seeing Arjun play, i can clearly sense he knows more than our current candidates winner and he is also playing with intuition and calculation and on the other hand gukesh is a strong player with a strong calculation type but he needs to learn more and he is will for sure. So these are my thoughts about these people. Just my thoughts ❤❤

[@Harishivkrishna]

Gukesh is out of form in the World chess championship, he is unable to find the best moves at the crucial time, he gave away three games from an absolute winning advantage to a dead draw. He somehow manages to get good positions out of the opening but the transition from the middle game into the endgame he does really miss the best moves to maintain the advantage. I think he must try to improve his endgame and play the best moves. Or maybe he is unable to maintain his nerves, once we saw he touched the bishop mistakenly and his advantage of 0.5 something like went away.

[@Alone-h6o]

@@Harishivkrishna exactly i was thinking the same after yesterdays game gukesh needs to improve his endgame imagine if candidates gukesh came in the endgames it was over for ding 🥶🥶

[@kkmz11]

Lol you guys give no credit to Ding who only had 3 weeks of prep yet still manages to find computer moves in time pressure. Before it was "Gukesh is going to crush ding," now it's " if candidates Gukesh showed up." Lol

[@Harishivkrishna]

@@kkmz11 Gukesh had two times 2.0 advantage, it is enough for a grandmaster to win a game even against Magnus. But Gukesh was clearly struggling to find the best moves and threw away the advantages. In the previous month he lost to a below 2700 rated player. He is clearly out of form. Yes Ding played better but Gukesh was just too bad in converting winning games otherwise Gukesh would have won hands down.

[@Alone-h6o]

@@kkmz11 its the same as saying i didn't pass my exams bc i hadn't studied its a u prblm lol ding had hell lot of time to prepare why giving excuse gukesh was just bad in endgames which is why ding got a chance bc ding was good in endgame on the other hand gukesh was better in opening and middle game idk why did u try to insert ding here for no reason 😭😭

[@A.Utkarsh-p8o]

Arjun beginning his villain arc😂

[@ManuShivannaprakash]

Twomoro more expensive matches Arjun final round Gukesh final round

[@Meghnath_from_Lanka]

Today

[@sankalpsachdev8566]

Amazing recaps! Would also love if you can add the move numbers so one can anticipate the time pressure situation as well

[@Lovefrchess]

Now I can say he is really a madman

[@kausikhm]

Why can't you put Kathikeyan's name in the title of the video????

[@krishnenduashwin407]

So that more people can view the video. Magnus slayer in a catchy title for Karthikeyan

[@ashwithkalla6913]

MADMAN !!

[@rowdy4725]

If anyone can explain? Why pragg is not playing this tournament or competing for the candidates

[@uniqueway1514]

pragg already selected for candidates i guess

[@rowdy4725]

@uniqueway1514 but if Arjun wins today match he will be the first one to qualify for 2026 So ?

[@suchinpisipati]

I don't understand why the time got increased at 10:30

[@PunitPandey-rx4rl]

Because it classical game so after 40 move it increases

[@Ajeethkumar189]

[@238URANIUM92]

Come on man everyone on yt uses clickbait Biggest chess youtuber gothamchess uses insane clickbaits too it's not a big deal Also it's a compliment to be called "Magnus Carlsen Slayer"

[@piyushtayal8567]

​@238URANIUM92 Ya I know everyone does but they do a little too much now a days ..they should tone it down a little...but whatever.

[@ninja-nd1wm]
