Karpov vs Bareev

Ajaccio-2007.
Championnat d'Europe de blitz.

[@aleksandrpondios]

Anatoly Karpov was number one for almost 12 years and number two for 14 years,got about 2800 live rating,have been in top 12 at age of 50,and almost 2700 and in top 30 at age of 55.One of the greatest players ever-respect!

[@philjohnson9320]

Fischer would have beaten him in '75. Fischer had a rating of 2785 in '72, Karpov's peak rating ('94) was 2780. Even Kasparov said Fischer would have beaten him, but beyond that who knows. Too bad Fischer was a nut job, otherwise he would have kept on competing and been the first to break 2800 barrier.

[@enigma9306]

For anyone wondering, Karpov won. I don't know why someone in the comments is saying he lost on time, he clearly mated his opponent

[@Coolhandzzluke]

At 2:13 Qd5 was great. threatening mate and pealing off that H1 rook like it's nothing.....Karpov is positional player yes but still has immense tactical ability even at his age. One of the greatest players of all time and one of the nicest and most humble too. Mad respect the GM!

[@nibols23]

my favorite player of all time

[@asherasator]

In the early 90s Karpov publicly said he would "play Fischer under any conditions". Fischer never responded.

[@MarianoFreyreX]

Es un genioo¡¡

[@Tengoshi]

Fantastic flurry by Karpov at the end.

[@Ruxistico]

@CaptainSvy well... Kramnik actually defeated Kasparov in a 12-game match. Kasparov was unable to win even a single game from Big Vlad and lost two himself. Credit is due to Kramnik who is the only person ever to win a match against Kaspy.

[@kikook222]

@TexasRobert I see Carlsen being one of the greatest players of all time one day. He's the text book example of a chess genius.

[@timor-leste]

comment aged beautifully

[@lobosad]

Weltklasse!!!!!

[@TheLio666]

Karpov =RESPECT

[@sormu16]

He still strong, old Karpov.. Nice finish.

[@ArtsewS]

Thx for the upload mate. Would you perhaps also know where we could find the entire .pgn off this game?

[@raton2con2peluca]

this is done in the championships to raise awareness that this table has finished playing...

[@panxdaisy]

mr.maurice2a? is this maurice ashley?? congratulations man, the first black to become a GM...

[@shiryu008]

Fantastic karpov.

[@itsMinuteMaid]

is that the equivalent of a big-o dude just smashing you on the head with his fist and you falling down? Like in the cartoons.

[@MrQmason]

@TexasRobert Karpov was no joke. He use to grind the life out of many of his opponents. And like you said, he was an awesome player.

[@depeche88]

2:13, everything goes crazy..In 6 -7 second ...wow, magic

[@Lucho261094]

awesome.

[@shark0505]

I wish I could calculate a checkmate like that in a matter of seconds. Proves that playing someone at Karpovs speed is like playing Tiger Woods on the golf course. When you're at that level you know who on the planet is capable of beating you...and believe me its a very short list.

[@LostSymbolic]

Is this Shirov in the background?

[@mavaddat]

Does anyone know why that guy randomly moves their kings to the front of the after the game?

[@nukex1989]

who won?

[@Jooeyy83]

Whaoooo !!

[@MarianoFreyreX]

Karpov order the pieces soo fastt.

[@menandmice]

Tolya rules!!

[@thegreatonesays]

I appreciate the reply, any chance you speak english?

[@angelustt]

what the hell happened at the end! they only moved their hands and at the end they shaked hands, who won ??!

[@Pimlicos1]

Bareev bottled that one... They play like bullets!!! I liked the old blitz chess personally

[@vibovitold]

how do you mean "the only one"? Kramnik defeated Kasparov in a match, for example. no player is invincible.

[@Spudst3r]

Chess is a very individualistic game. Chess players at tournaments aren't a very social bunch. Everyone who is serious about doing well is so preoccupied with winning their games, booking up and practicing that there is often little socializing between games and after. Chalk it up to the nature of the game and the tendency of chess players to not really be social butterflies to begin with. It's definitely a different culture than what you'd find at board game/card game tournaments IMO.

[@philmarq25]

whos karpov? the right or the left?

[@Apoic123]

dang if i loss like that , i would quit chess or even walk in that room!

[@devidia]

who is who?

[@thegreatonesays]

No one answered why that guy moved the two kings to the center at the end of the game?

[@MishaTal1]

Karpov whips Bareev so badly at the end of this Blitz match.

[@DiceEsque]

focus

[@DESM0NDD56]

damthatriver09, how can you turn down a cookie ( a little late I know), another one- why are YOU watching a chess video?

[@WeAreBorg359]

Yeah why did that happen?

[@schusterlehrling]

@codename08jay No, Karopv mated on f7.

[@speedproductions797]

wow, interesting

[@vibovitold]

if I see the board well, Bareev got checkmated

[@5dd2]

whatever...you got the point!

[@raton2con2peluca]

eso se hace en los campeonatos para dar a conocer que esa mesa ha terminado de jugar...

[@ChesscomGames]

karpov is just too gangster

[@saulo07]

By tthe way I have no time to waste with...gurisoes ( very creative ). This conversation is over.

[@DaveoCamaro]

1:48 trap is set. 2:08 Karpov thinks, "I caught a big one!"

[@aedra2001]

Go Tolya!

[@1987DeLarge]

@TomValedro mmm not quite:D!for u see,it's not Karpov that chickened out...Anyway,it's a matter of taste,but i think Karpov would have won,really tight,but a win.

[@Pepperman86]

checkmate

[@scolic03]

@philmarq25 The left one.

[@jesuistahmid]

ouch old-kerpov just owned him

[@DominikKo33]

very nervous

[@nlsnbebang]

it's a mate!!!

[@KnightOnE5Square]

Evgeny is eating his finger..

[@depeche88]

hahahahahaha , u made me laugh =) (the winner was the guy at the left )

[@nemlou]

karpov toujours fort!!

[@oxiigen]

Karpov is on the left.

[@gimelnus]

Hard to respond from Iceland...

[@TheEerika]

why don't they ever talk?

[@astat1]

Karpov won this one... Strange how you did not notice it.

[@LimesNorrlandicus]

@Ruxistico no it's soccer duh

[@rusia0071]

karpov is the best

[@farkar78]

If Fisher never died do you think he'd be better than Karpov?

[@nibols23]

anatoly is my hero

[@mrcelada]

Se colgó todo bareeb

[@djosafat1]

The right guy, resign because mate in one. Karpov, left guy won.

[@jtwaddle5295]

Bareev won tho????

[@TheMaster5645]

2:14

[@tarchalin]

Fischer had good opportunity to prove his supposed "supremacy" over Karpov. Of course, he chose not to...

[@vertebrax]

juaaaaaaaaaaa :P

[@00eric28]

i dont know who won... lol

[@TunaWilson]

haha i really don't know who won xD

[@msn140]

Bareev he have no respect for karpov!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is was a nice mate he not saw it coming

[@chessbattle1207]

Karpov mate Bareev, lol=)

[@jtwaddle5295]

Nvm

[@Ruxistico]

It's chess...

[@militarymania]

looks like Kasparov won that one...

[@msn140]

`yes fck all karpov is a a very good strong player, bobby Fischer not wanna play too him

[@Thelavendel]

I think the dude to the left won....just from reading body language

[@krruger79]

@applenick12345 What a ignorance. Kasparov is much younger than Karpov. Karpov was unbeatable at his prime. It is world order that younger dethrone older eventually.

[@termodox]

bareev gets plowed

[@PaXx]

Men vs women

[@xIGotSoulx]

@philmarq25 left

[@bailinnumberguy]

Karpov mates

[@THEKILLERALESSANDRO]

I can barely keep track of your movements! fuck

[@artico21]

Pobre Bareev, que duro que le dio. Parece que a poco tiempo no es tan fuerte como en el juego pensado.

[@Livio44]

funny

[@1Deejay7]

@00eric28 me 2 lol

[@carlinhosff]

Are you crazy?!?!? sucker!

[@alevooferfootr]

Watching a chess game, so badly filmed is almost as boring as watching formula I

[@Vonzi0000]

karpov (left) won

[@bengalbengalbengal]

who the fuck won?

[@codename08jay]

karpov won, bareev resigned

[@ducksaj]

black hair.......lol

[@saulo07]

Yes..he died..but for this kind of comment you live on...like a mule.

[@5dd2]

Get tired from these Fisher Fans!!! "Fisher is the best, he would beat anyone and bla bla bla".... He was one of the best, may be the best one...but he is gone forever... the game is between Karpov and Bareev!!!! KArpov and Bareev!!! Not Fisher and Bareev, not Karpov and Fisher!!!! Analyze current game and stop talking shit about Fisher and how great he was....

[@msn140]

`yes fck all karpov is a a very good strong player, bobby Fischer not wanna play too him
