The move when gukesh takes his rook to attack against black that's where the whole game changed and everything is going against black

[@shekarvaigankar]

Gukesh with black pieces is like dormammu of dark dimensions. Thus "D" dormammu Gukesh. Today he will play with black and win

This is indeed a stunning reply to all those who doubted Indian players in the Candidates!! Sagar please make a video of the comments by Top Chess Leaders doubting Indian Players at the Candidates and end it with this moment of Gukesh Leading the board

[@travistouthang341]

No need

Sagar pls call vidit and gukesh to sit toghther and make plans, theories on defeating hikaru,,

[@janviruparel9165]

This is individual game so that won't happen

Vidit Knightmare of Hikaru😅 Or else he would have been in much lead .

[@jemsonkairan4459]

That was a great game from both great chess minds. congrats, Gukesh!

[@tenorhighc1]

Gukesh seems very serious and concerned all the time. At the Post Press conference the only smile he gave is when YOU asked a question. You make him feel comfortable I think :)

[@indradventure]

An excellent tournament coming to an exciting end. Indian talents are making their mark is a proud moment. Sagar, you are nurturing future generations with your efforts today which will come up in anytime soon. Lots of respect and love. Keep growing.

[@haroldrshi]

Wow! Gukesh moves are very accurate and he is also calm. What a phenomenal game

[@nabanitasaha7941]

Last round tells who is the shark...today is that bloody fight where everone will know the original king

[@digitalsparrow_8599]

EPIC GAME🔥🔥

[@ShridharJaju]

That Move 42 Qh4 was a turning point for me. After the time control, while Gukesh was thinking of his Move 41, Amruta had run a poll on the live stream asking whether the viewers wanted Gukesh to play for a draw or a win. One needs some context here. Before that move Qh4, Firouzja had played high accuracy chess all through, even enjoying some advantage on the bar for some time. At Move 41, he must have thought that Gukesh is now going for a draw as there was a repetition. And then Move 42 threw him off. Gukesh decided to press and not repete. And suddenly, Alireza Firuozja, who had played high accuracy chess for 4+ hours, played some inaccurate moves. And finally when he offered the Queen exchange, the engine went decidedly in Gukesh's favour, who did not let off. Gukesh played high accuracy after that long think before Move 41. Sagar Bhai, if you ever get the chance, please ask him how far ahead in that line had he calculated when he had a long think after Move 40 (btw, it was 19 minutes and not 14 as you mentioned in the video). I would love to know how far ahead he had calculated, because despite falling almost 15 minutes behind after Move 41, he and Firouzja were quite equivalent on time at the end. So that was some high accuracy stuff at a very good speed at the end there from Gukesh.

[@karanarora1468]

A win at this juncture of the tournament is HOLY...!!... HOLY...!!..HOLY...!!

how did gukesh's time increase? at 12:01

[@feedforyou3541]

12:15 alireiza time was 45 seconds, how did it become 31 minutes after that!? Was there any extra time rule? Can anyone clarify me on this!

[@toSirius]

Google : fide candidates rules

[@SomeshPrajapati-cq7sq]

At 10:11 , gukesh's knight can be placed at h6, giving a check to black king. But black kingmay escape to g7. In next move gukesh can take queen. In next step his knight will be taken down by black rook. Though it's a aggressive move, but black queen will be gone by white knight

[@pranavladha5629]

Rook on e6 will take the knight if it moves to h6

[@tirthtrivedi9968]

Thank you Chessbase India.

Alireza was winning but he sacrificed a pawn for no good reason. Alireza plays like Kasparov but he needs to study Karpov’s games if he wishes to become world champ!

man.... sagar. just please if u can, dont move their pieces on the board, annotate on the video to explain a move, but you moving pieces just disturbs the flow of the game for a viewer.
