I was gonna FIGHT Garry

[@noxnc]

Yasser’s story-telling Elo is 2900+ Also…I want to see Kasparov’s reaction to this clip.😂

[@SilencedButNotForgotten]

I can imagine Garry's eyes popping out in shock and him waving his hands around while apologizing. 🤣

[@markdavis7397]

If you're about to get punched by the most jovial guy in the history of chess....it's probably not only surprising, but a clue that it's time to rethink your behavior.

[@alex-internetlubber]

@@markdavis7397 Most jovial but also, among all chess players, if I could name one, Yasser would be most likely to do you serious physical damage lol

[@36AccountsBlockedRIP]

I'm surprised that such behaviour did not lead to an automatic loss, as it's rather off-putting.

[@rickrick5041]

The arbiter didn’t notice?

[@36AccountsBlockedRIP]

@@rickrick5041 Unlikely, as the impact was such that apparently pieces went flying off the board next to them too.

[@alumpy-acho112]

It’s because he’s garry

[@mycroftholmes7379]

This is one of the reasons why I prefer Karpov over Kasparov. Karpov is just too silent in game and very humble in real life. Kasparov is indeed a beast, both in attitude and in game.

[@cagnusmarlsen]

Yasser is an absolute legend

[@pradyumnsingh6082]

gary was disgrace on the name of brilliance, when he lost to young radjabov, he left the match without resigning the match and radjabov waited till the clock ran out.

[@Kodaira023]

he also straight up insulted radjabov iirc due to radjabov winning the brillancy prize because of that game

typical garry kasparov behaviour

[@chesscomsupport8689]

Minus the part where he says sorry

[@joelinsb8650]

Just saw a video where Kasparov came by as as an honored guest to make the first move for Magnus. Kasparov was on foot smiling to the quiet applause and happened to move right next to Wesley So sitting at the next table, so Wesley offered a handshake. And Kasparov looked right through him as if he was a nobody. Kasparov could have maintained his superiority without going that far.

[@Alg496]

Just saw that exact same video. That’s not what happened. So was telling him to make the move, he clearly reached his hand out in a gesture of ‘move a piece’.

[@Jadido7]

There were several shameful incidents of garry back in the 80s and 90s .... I remember among many things the clapping of the door in a crutial game in WC match vs anand in new york 1995, cheating against judith polgar in linares 1994 .... I like how Yasser concluded in this video, Yasser is pure class

[@deutscheblitzkrieg]

I would have punched Kasparov if I lost from a better position, because of his behaviour. Seirawan has very good self control.

[@knightking4412]

Unacceptable behavior even from a legend like Garry himself. Magnus is maybe a bad loser but, he never will do something like that

[@Kodaira023]

kasparov has done worse than that bro

[@uzard3860]

Did Garry rearrange the pieces on the next board too ? 🤔

[@ContrerasPatricio]

Yasser is such a great guy! Love his Pirc strategy!

[@retiredoldguy9210]

Yasser looks like he was just in a fight

[@NavoTheTrueGod]

garry chess didn't want any smoke

[@disciple2742]

Yeah he should of been kicked or at the least gave a loss for that Not only did he mess up the flow of his opponent, but the people next to them possibly changed the outcome of matches.

[@r.mcdonnell8614]

Semi-purposefully causing the pieces to fall over should be the same penalty as an illegal move

[@arvindradhakrishnan8270]

Yasser is such a sweet person.Kasparov was just a ill tempered,nasty human being who constantly misbehaved with his opponents.Infact he behaved exactly in this manner towards Vishy Anand during their WC title match in 1995.He was upset when Anand beat him in Game 9.In Game 10 Kasparov would slam the door violently after making a move.This nearly dislodged the pieces on the board.Anand was very upset but he refrained from registering an official complaint.People like Yasser and Anand are nice,warm hearted,soft spoken and kind gentlemen.Kasparov was a foul tempered,manipulative,power drunk and arrogant person who had no sporting spirit that befiited a great World Champion.Truth be told,I find it hilarious and ironic whenever I hear Kasparov preach about democracy and freedom..it's rich coming from a real life tyrant like him.:-)

[@orka16605]

Gary is a bit of a prick not a real life tyrant. The Soivet Union Gary knows and talks about is real life evil. I wish people learn more about it treated this subject with the reverence it deserves.

[@arvindradhakrishnan8270]

@@orka16605 I have read enough about the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe to know how terrible these systems were.I have learnt so much from the writings of Solzhenitsyn,Havel,Arthur Koestler,Milan Kundera,Robert Conquest,Simon Montefiore.Indivudual liberty and freedom of speech were crushed in these countries.That said,I still feel that Kasparov is an undemocratic person by nature.He has such a self centered,arrogant,acerbic,authoritarian streak in him.When it comes to Putin and Russia he says all the politically correct things and I agree with his political views.Be that as it may,I find him lacking certain humane qualities.Its just my view.

The fish that got away!

[@kentso8888]

gm's don't laugh

[@chessandmathguy]

But still, all that aside, Garry did use the rook to win against the two knights, so that's not nothing. The two knights, as we are told, had some easy draws against the rook, but Yasser must've taken some risks to win and they didn't work.

[@Wtahc]

ok ?

[@joedorben3504]

And Yasser had also lost a bunch of time on the clock while they were setting the board back up the way it was, not to mention his psychological state after all that

[@TheAluvisify]

To be fair, Yasser was also pissed off at that point and probably wasn't thinking straight.
