Anand corners Carlsen’s knight

[@TheChefCain]

Jerry, I have a request! Could you review one of your own games? Perhaps the game that you consider gave you your title? I'd love to see your style of play! Cheers!

[@legatemichael]

good suggestion

[@jasoncall3731]

Please look up the rapid chess(15 minute time control) games on this channel. Livestream-type commentary plus analysis after.

As a looong time fan, I remember he commenting one of these games. Question is finding it by now. It was a long time ago...

[@MrThatsomg]

Yea I think he has done this but still a good idea, another idea might to have viewers send in some cool games and he could pick one or more

[@youuuuuuuuuuutube]

Fantastic game, and great analysis as well, I feel that I learned something here.

[@ChessNetwork]

Great to hear 👍

[@alexandreduf]

I loved when you explained how "25. Nxg5" would improve the knight, the rook and the bishop. That was very instructive!

[@123chesss]

Brilliant game by Anand.

[@ankitchauhancr7]

I was wondering why white forced a dark square bishop exchange bc I thought white's light square bishop was a bad bishop lol. Couldn't have been more wrong

Hi Jerry, it's everyone.❤

[@chrishauser5505]

Yep!

[@mailvishooj]

Over the years, I have learnt so many concepts watching these analysis and it has improved my game. But the most valuable thing would be - Pawn moves.

[@ChessNetwork]

👍

[@chrishauser5505]

Wonderful analysis, Jerry, and marvelous game by Anand!. You don't see Magnus get steamrolled like that very often. Question: How do you feel your own understanding/analysis have changed since the widespread arrival of engines? Just genuinely curious how "now" compares to "then" for you.

[@muschemartin]

When I see a new Jerry video I say yeeeeesssss out loud :'-----) love this man

[@Shabroog]

How easy it looks, very very minor thoughts differences between two opponents lead to a huge result as that. It is a war. Nice analysis Jerry.

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

In his early days Anand completely dominated Carlsen, there was not long between his first classical win against the Indian and his first classical world championship. Very instructive play and fine analysis. Thanks Jerry.

I often have a lot of trouble in positions like 3:15 trying to figure out whether to play b3 or b4 (or neither). Seems like in this case you're giving up an excellent square for a knight. Any insight into what to be thinking about there?

[@phen-themoogle7651]

b3 is less committal since you aren't making a potential pawn-hole on c4, also I've seen this idea in some positional chess books about pawn structures in that you slowly build up with a move like b3 because it's dynamic and gives you more options for either c4/a4 and maybe more choices depending on positions, but there's probably some positions similar to this where b4 could be the answer too if maybe there's not two knights capable of jumping to c4, but I'm not sure if black will just play cxb4 cxb4 Nac4 immediately, definitely worth studying more if you reach this kinda position often

[@alephnull4044]

Same, b4 looked so counterintuitive to me here and I can't fault b3, just looks like a move with a lot of benefits and no real drawbacks.

[@alephnull4044]

Maybe the question after b3 is "then what". Black looks like they will be expanding on the queenside and I can't see an immediate plan for White. On the other hand b4 puts pressure and c5 (and therefore e5) and so gives White some initiative at the expense of giving Black an outpost.

[@clydefernandes9598]

​@@phen-themoogle7651hey. I saw you on ChesswithPatrick too. 😀

[@phen-themoogle7651]

@@alephnull4044 exactly, it's good for initiative, and White wanted the c-file to open up I think anyhow cuz black's knights felt a bit too much on the flank, it was funny seeing Na8 later too.

[@lucavaillancourt]

first one to watch, love your video

[@BharadwajSubramaniamdude]

This game shows that anand was a beast in calculation and positional play. Slightly unfortunate that we didn't get prime anand vs prime magnus. Magnus on paper is better but I think prime vishy would have been his toughest opponent so far. Vishy has all the skill to give him a tough fight. Good tactical ability, good opening prep and good positional play.

Jerry, I first started watching ur videos in 2011 with the Carlson and Anand world chess championship. With this one being from ‘07, I wonder when u first found this game and how long u have studied it. Thank u for always giving and teaching so much, u are the best

[@ChessNetwork]

I only recently saw it for the first time, or I at least don’t recall viewing it earlier. I reviewed it for maybe something close to 90 minutes, and it took a couple hours to record it how I wanted for the most part. Thank you for the compliment. 👍

[@shubhamrahinj6864]

Best chess KZbinr ever

at 7:40 I solved the challenge in about 5 seconds. When I saw it I got excited - I don't play much, and my ranking is low. So can I get it right? When Jerry confirmed the move I howled in satisfaction.

[@grouchomcgrouch4150]

Jerry, I'm thinking of signing up for my first tournament and I will do my best not to dishonor your instructive commentary with poor play

[@ChessNetwork]

Good luck 👍😎

[@saudude2174]

i was expecting a hot fanfiction of Magnus x Anand after that title, not gonna lie. He really slipped his rook into Magnus' open line at 6:19

I was surprised to see Carlsen allow himself to get forced into funky moves like NR1 and box in his Queens pieces like that. Thanks again Jerry.

Jerry was so excited about to through this game to get to the knight trap that he called a pawn and a rook, a knight lol..
