Kasparov is Furious after Losing to Radjabov's Brilliancy

Follow MprooV on Twitter / mproovapp #agadmator In 2003, Kasparov lost to Teimour Radjabov by storming away from the board and lost on time rather than resign in a clearly lost position. He refused to shake hands or do a post game analysis. Later, Radjabov was awarded the brilliancy prize, but Kasparov walked up on the stage, grabbed the microphone, and launched a 10 minute tirade at the journalists, saying the award was a public insult and humiliation because Radjabov was completely lost in the game.

Hilarious how Kasparov said Radjabov's brilliancy was, "A disgrace to chess", yet the fact that he walked away from the table during his game with Radjabov, only to return and give a ten minute rant during Radjabov's award ceremony, is probably the most disgraceful thing I've heard ever happen in a chess tournament haha.

[@philippederome2434]

If only it were that simple. Agadmator showed that Kasparov avoided the two most straightforward moves and went for a third one, a subtle alternative. And that one shows a loss of the knight in a complex combination that takes about 8 moves to analyze properly. Black probably calculated this properly. And Kasparov either does not give him credit for that calculation or overestimates his decision as "accidental blunder" very untypical of his.

@@brucewillis542 watching the game from the comfort of my couch, I looked like to me like Radjabov trolled Kasparov. It honestly looked like he just was really prepared for that line that Kasparov threw at him, and Radjabov just outplayed him. No shame in losing, as long as you something. Too bad sometimes you learn the worst about others in how they lose, as opposed to how they win. Just can't respect a sore loser. Especially at Kasparov's age.

[@Nullifidian]

@@brucewillis542 Quite, but Kasparov was lying about that. Nh6 would have been perfectly fine in that position. If one refused to award brilliancy prizes based on the games sore losers were prepared to lie about, then no brilliancy prizes would ever be awarded anywhere. And even if Kasparov weren't lying, it's a stupid objection, because it would then oblige every chess player to constantly play games where there are multiple winning moves at each position. If Kasparov were correct that Radjabov was "lost" before he made the knight sac, then that simply increases his merit in finding the one available winning line. To say that one shouldn't award a brilliancy prize because the other moves would have been worse is to argue that chess players who find the right moves should be penalized.

blackoutgenez Thanks for the analysis. I have two reactions to Kasparov. First, this is not at all like poker where someone can play "poorly" and still win. Second, does it even matter how you win in chess? I mean, isn't the beauty of the game that it hasn't been solved yet, and that it might take quantum leaps in computing power before it is?

its not a blunder - unless you are a super computer checking a 1,000,000 moves a second and ranked 700 points higher! this is a battle between real people, humans, and the move is brilliant because it allows so many ways for the opponent to go wrong; and the world champion finds one of those ways quite easily!

Magnus can take the win and move on, but next game he simply resigns to Ding after 4 moves because he did not want to win like that. 2. He offers draws if the opponent mouse slips in a winning position (in serious tournaments), but when he himself slipped in a winning position vs Ian Nepomnachi he resigned immediately because he did not want Ian to offer a draw for the slip. He has been doing things like these throughout this entire year and you call him out on not being a good sportsman. I've seen exactly 2 instances where he was ungracious - his loss against a female player in a blitz or rapid game and when he blundered a won tournament and couldn't stand having to endure the award ceremony afterwards, dropping his flowers and leaving - which he was crucified by the media for afterwards.

Obviously, if someone beats World champion, that game must be brilliant, or so they thought.

[@Nyctasia]

He is a lot better than Korchnoi, a man who has never lost a game fairly and always blames everyone else.

[@nuwandalton]

Korchnoi was a bitter man, but then he had to survive the Leningrad Siege as a teen. Whatever Kasparov likes us to believe, he's never been a dissident. He was a pampered little prince and Gaydar Aliev's protégé. Later, he became an ultra-capitalistic prick.

Radjabov delivered a soul-crushing blow to Kasparov.

[@zaurhuse2213]

This is very historic moment. Both masters Kasparov and Radjabov were born in same city Baku, Azerbaijan, and both masters graduated same chess school in Baku, Azerbaijan.

[@sandwarrior5579]

One is armenian, another one is azerbaijani though. Nations that hate each other

[@wilk3ns]

​@@sandwarrior5579 Kasparov is only half Armenian half Jew. And his mother is not from Armenia, but from Karabagh, still Azerbaijan but with Armenian majority. There are still a lots of half Armenians living in Azerbaijan. This wasn't because his mother is Armenian but because the chose to betray his homeland, his heritage and his uncle, who raised him after this father's death.

Kasparov did a Korchnoi and demonstrated that you can make a loss even more ugly!

[@user-ov2kx8ql5i]

He said " if he blunders, that means he is the reason why he loses and not the player's brilliance that won the game" A chess game without a single blunder made is always ended in Draw. So his reasons are not valid.

[@johncerminaro1067]

Not only a strong game by Radjabov, but he showed a superb grasp of Kasparov's inherent drop-off in strength and comfort when deprived of active play, w/even a quite average GM's endgame strength. That flaw, also discovered by Kramnik and others, probably originally tracing back to Bobby Fischer's casual remarks, revealing a profound analytical grasp of the ex-Soviet world champion's game and uneven technique when deprived early-on of attacking chances or else by trading off queens and transposing into simpler endgame positions, endings requiring patience and immense computational depth. Bravo to Teimour (!) for his superb play and handling of his opponent's unsportsmanlike behavior. Also!..excellent commentary of the game! Thank you very much, Agadmator... Addio, JC

[@meme3395]

Like the insight

[@austinhaynes6420]

Jeez what a disgrace, I've seen his meltdowns and angry moments but to give a 10 minute speech about being a sore loser is simply astounding.

[@bezzlebedeviled4756]

4:42 -- BxN on e5 is indeed the move Kasparov should have played, since making his bishop available as an attractive target for continuing exchange (while he is up in material) would remove Radjabov's last knight (and hence the unpleasant prospect of it ending up on b3 via a5, which is in fact exactly what happened in the game and led to Kasparov's defeat), and after Nxe5, dxe5, Bc5, Bg4, Be3 (threatening queen), Qg2 ...and Black's attack is out of gas, and White's material advantage remanifests. If Black follows up with pawn-shoving d4, it is met with Nb4 (the formerly pawn-threatened square), defending the attacked B3 pawn as well as subsequent checking and forking with d6 and f7. 5:55 -- Here is where Kasparov gave away his advantage by Qg4. Much better is Qxd5 to gobble another pawn, and create a passed pawn of his own. Response Nf6 is met with Qg2 (defending everything), and g5 met with Bd6 or Bxg5 (forcing an exchange of bishops after gobbling yet another pawn, as the queen now covers g5). 6:42 -- The game-losing blunder where Kasparov finally went off the rails for good. If he plays Kb1, he is perfectly safe and defuses the Nb3+ check/fork threat. But after (any other move)?, then check comes, and the engine now rates a previously even position as a much worse -3.66 (depth 20), well in Radjabov's favor. 6:52 -- Bxg3 is such a strong move that the engine actually prefers it to Nb3+ on the prior turn after Kasparov declines Kb1.

[@redbrick341]

The disgrace was Kasparov walking away instead of resigning like a mature adult. He earned the Pettiest Move of the Tournament award.

First of all, it's just a game, and it's quite wasteful for society to have intelligent people dedicate their lives for it, so my respect for gamers of any kind is limited to begin with.

The tournament clock ran out before the game clock, so the victory didn't count for the tournament.

[@Gregoryt700]

Non sequitur. In that series, Gary admits that Fischer's 1970-72 cycle was the most dominating, VI's à vis level of competition, ever. In 1000 yrs Fischer could never admit such a thing about anyone else (nor could Karpov, I suspect). Gary had the capacity for self-criticism, which is usually a sign of high EQ as well as IQ
