He Proved Everyone Wrong (GAME 1 RECAP)

[@siya2195]

As a French player I love to see that its being used at the highest of levels

[@ant_ig]

i am so sorry for you

[@bernhardhaudum]

Please no spoilers in the title & thumbnail...

[@TheMornox]

Would be better to not (implicitly) spoil the result in the video title.

[@BobChess]

People: "Ding will lose. Gukesh will easily win" Ding: 🤫

[@angus3.0]

"I'm sure the outpost has a great personality" xD Great recap, entertaining and detailed but not obsessive about everything

[@roqsteady5290]

26:30: The French bishop becomes a monster, holding together black's entire position and pressuring the white king at the same time! It's a bad ass bishop!

[@chesswithNaguib]

Ding spending so much time so early in the game was very concerning. I'm glad he came back and got the win.

[@jennysmeets5361]

Thanks for the recap makes it easy to understand!

DING CHILLING

BIG CHILLING

[@onetree123]

[@roan717]

@@onetree123 not sure bing chilling was just a meme because john cena said it fits well with the name Ding

KING DING

[@jacksarkisian]

they doubted the kid fr

[@olinke2]

Everyone has been underestimating Ding. King Ding for real

[@yashamonker]

Hope this reaches till Game 14, so we can get some entertainment! Go Gukesh & Ding!

[@infomatters.]

No way bro uploaded faster than Levy and Hikaru 💀

[@jacksarkisian]

hikaru has me beat 😭😭😭 idek if Levy is doing recaps on his main channel, i thought he was doing them on TakeTakeTake with Magnus

[@infomatters.]

​@@jacksarkisian lmao he beat you by 6 minutes 😭😭😭

[@CallumOKane]

My god?! Another ⭐LEGENDARY ⭐jacksark video! You can't be serious... 😲 this guy is pumping videos out faster then NPC Miles Morales can thank you for a galaxy 🌌🙏 We must be living in some simulation, right?

MATRIX MATRIX MATRIX RAHHHHHHH

[@CallumOKane]

@@jacksarkisian I quit.

[@AykhanChess13]

08:07 i was waiting for this move, and then i saw that gukesh played some senseless move (he was doing alpha walk btw)

[@Ebobster]

Great recap; thank you!

[@Ebobster]

Amazing that both players missed idea of Bc5 & Qh2, as cutting off king & back rank mates are common themes when king is still not castled in the middle game! Good to see however that Ding is back in form, even if both sides had some inaccuracies. For sure Gukesh is going to have a rough night kicking himself for missing his winning shot and losing a winnable game. Hopefully this WC will not be riddled with as many errors & mistakes as the last one (Nepo vs Ding).

[@anotherelvis]

I am just glad that it wasn't a draw

[@jacksarkisian]

the French Defense always delivers

[@AykhanChess13]

I remember samay raina was doing black and white racism lol

[@sharanimations1791]

this was so fast

[@jacksarkisian]

i prerecorded so much of it & Hikaru still beat me 😭😭

[@MrAnOboDY-k1h]

add time usage and expand the board

[@jacksarkisian]

Chess.com clocks weren’t working when I recorded this video at all so I just didn’t include them, hopefully they’ll be fixed for tomorrow’s game!

[@Master-007]

Thanks, nice recap

[@Tae11yung]

lightning fast

[@jacksarkisian]

Hikaru still beat me 😭😭

[@raouftaoutaou1687]

This was an exicating game

[@SAFIGHTERChess-b7u]

Man chill it's just the first game, let's celebrate in the last game maybe depression won't be knocking on the door for Ding and overconfidence might teach Gukesh that a 2700 is still a SuperGM even after some bad games.

[@chessUSER1234eividukas1]

Letts goo ding betted 1k dollar on ding WWW

[@jacksarkisian]

truly the start he needed, wonder how tomorrows game will go!

[@AykhanChess13]

You betted that at middle of the game? Bro betting is kinda lol

[@AykhanChess13]

I am rooting for ding this championship but i thought today was a draw day:)

[@jacksarkisian]

looked like it was going to be a draw until the horrendous Qe2. complete mismanagement of his time that resulted in his loss today Gukesh. of course there are more obvious blunders but using 35 minutes on such a straightforward move is just clearly where he went wrong imo

[@AykhanChess13]

@jacksarkisian bro had space everything even time

[@PURAHAN]

bournemouth's recaps gonna be better, just wait.

[@gmludovic]

Team Guki

[@jacksarkisian]

hopefully Gukesh comes back from this, would hate to see a one sided championship whichever way it goes
