Najdorf Would Be Proud | Carlsen vs Svidler | Biel Chess 2018

[@debayudhrarhi5492]

"My internet service provider failed to provide me the service of Internet"...I have seen so many openings of chess...but the opening of this video is the greatest...

[@zakarijrameka2807]

Debayudh Rarhi called service provider declined variation

[@SylarTheBest]

Debayudh Rarhi The Internet Gambit Declined 😂😂😂

[@metalzonemt-2]

And it was in this position that the internet resigned.

[@Pokerface-jpg]

Internet service provider blunder results in resignation of internet service providing service.

[@supadupahilton6848]

Agedmator to ISP: "What's the idea here?"

[@Hydrationstation157]

Agadmator added to my vast knowledge of what an internet service provider is supposed to provide

[@ericsbuds]

my ISP needs to upgrade from Windows 98. pretty sure its just a guy in a van with an antenna on top.

[@danceswithstone]

They promise 24 hour service, but not all in a row.

[@RobFlaxMusic]

So sorry to hear your Internet Service Provider failed to provide you with the service of internet... 😂

[@agadmator]

It's the worst :D

[@DrachenYT]

You'd be surprised how often that happens. Nevertheless, you'll still be charged!

[@IsntThisPaul]

Internet Service Provider can stop even almighty Magnus Carlsen. Probably 3000+ ELO if given chance.

[@andreialexandruparfeni7129]

Paul Bang Let's allow AlphaZero to learn how to defeat it.

[@gg4u481]

One job, you had. Master, you must.

[@luv2stack]

Peter Svidler is one heck of a player

[@brandony8691]

I was surprised by so many of his moves. There were so many unintuitive moves this game that I would not have seen had it not been for Agadmator's calculations. It's amazing how Svidler can do all these deep calculations in an OTB game.

[@cmmmmmmmw]

Video starts at 0:00

[@agustindominguezcruz5000]

No shit 😂

[@michaelfruge421]

Colin Wood is to KZbin what Magnus Carlsen is to chess.

[@周国祥-e6y]

No, the video starts at 0:01, when Agadmator says:"hello, everyone"

[@eradian1]

It's end right around the end of the video too.

[@vishnuteja9747]

sun rises in the east

[@supercupcakewizard]

It's just insane how Magnus sees all of these lines with pieces seemingly hanging all over the place. The guy is either a computer, a magician, or both!

[@chengzhou8711]

“My internet service provider has failed to provide me the service of internet.” -Agadmator 2018

[@keepingyouincheck8533]

“I would have posted this video two hours ago but I had no internet as my internet service provided failed to provide me with the internet service, that is quite unfortunate” agadmator with the on point description as per usual

[@MrOtto3101]

Hey. I don't watch your videos as much as I'd like to but when I watch it's really an enjoyable time. You are very good at explaining things. I really hope your channel grows and more people come watching because they really should

[@Henry-rf2lj]

I am commenting just to thank you Agadmator, I've been subbed since you had around 5k subs and before that I had no interest in chess whatsoever, and with your amazing videos I've been learning a lot and sometimes I even play some games myself. Thank you!

[@ScoopexUs]

Well played by Svidler drawing with the black pieces against a Carlsen in prime form and looking for blood!

[@ivarkristoffersson3282]

Big thanks!! Lovely game!! As I am a Najdorf player I enjoy this very much!!

[@adithyavenkatarao7840]

9:10 Even though he's up a pawn, he's down the exchange! I don't think it's conclusive.

[@adnan4688]

I freaking knew it,damn it! Such a sharp game,with so many tactics,pieces sacrificed and its a draw.Fuuuck!

[@greghuth9580]

It's games like this that hammer home just how high in the stratosphere the play of GMs like Carlsen and Svidler is, and how I'm seemingly still wallowing in the mud. Very interesting game. Great analysis!

[@patrikpolakovic8887]

Hi agad, just in case you haven't noticed, and because you mentioned for 2 videos in a row now that you were in need of pictures, I sent you a couple of pictures I took in round 2, you should have an email from me. Cheers.

[@allistairelliott]

Sir, I began subscribing to your channel around the 50k mark. I have to say that this is one of your most fluid and lucid analysis offered yet. Fantastic. Many thanks. Also, I am a humble EFL teacher so I must congratulate the proficiency of your English. It is native like and exceptional. Many thanks once again. I always look forward to watching your newest game.

[@Ascidzz]

This is the most lethal game I have ever seen.

[@davidcopson5800]

There are lots more 'lethal' games than this.

[@Pseudoku_RL]

I love how dry his humor is

[@alexleach4002]

Best Chess video I have seen. Love the tangents that you show.

[@vancebocas7626]

I tend to forget how strong Svidler can play! Beautiful game. EDIT: Btw I didn't know that Comcast had internet service in Croatia too. (Just a jab at the crappy Internet service here in the US too. XD)

[@zakarijrameka2807]

My internet service provider failed to provide the service of internet 😂😂 made my morning

[@fatihselimaktas]

9:06 ?? up a pawn but carlsen has a knight for a rook, how is that winning easily ?

[@sekaiiisan3709]

Maybe because the black king is kinda exposed and in Carlsen's hand it would be easy to win this

[@JAndrioli]

The rook on A8 will never ever ever move

[@JJaeser]

Why not?

[@JP_boy_JP]

not enough tempos, he needs to generate 2 moves somewhere to get it free and with Carlsen (or any super GM) you dont have this time.

[@anthinhnguyen8555]

instead of "up a pawn" like he said, Rg1 is unstoppable, right?

[@gavine97]

Thank you for expanding my vast knowledge of the 2018 Biel Chess Festival

[@warrenwilson7836]

Thank you once again for your insightful analysis: I would not see such beauty in the games if you did not open them to my understanding the way you do. You have a double gift: to understand and know chess profoundly, and to be able to communicate your understandings and insights, and - even more - your love of the game. Thank you.

[@alessandrocerruti2927]

You're so entertaining every time. Thanks.

[@nikolastheodosiadis7441]

Love how you talk brother. Love it when you say hello everyone and free for grabs is a sweet lil line😀

[@ariyantozulkifli8082]

this game is absolute beast. and a BIG thumbs up for agad for the amazing analysis there. Probably one of the best analysis game in agad channel if not the best. Like one of agad's quote "the most beautiful moment in chess is the thought behind it". The only thing that I'm sad about is this game ends in a draw by repetitions. Amazing game by Mag-nificent Carlsen and Pet-ite Svidler

[@aouihemza1944]

The best channel ever .thank you

[@thedriver7348]

Ahhh just came home from work opened an ice cold beer and started watching this amazing game covered by none other than agadmator

[@josuerichard9521]

"The queen is free for grabs" hahahaa you are awesome!

[@OudPlayerHBY]

Svidler is really underrated The guy is extremely strong!

[@mhoadievdelapaz3703]

OudPlayerHBY Yes,I agree.He has a good record vs Nakamura.

[@Jonathan-ec9pp]

He has won the russian championship 8 times. You have to be really strong to do that...

[@andreialexandruparfeni7129]

Nice in-depht analysis around the 11:00 points. This is what I like about ChessNetwork and what you sometimes didn't do so well. But lately you're getting better.

[@masanetthomas8586]

They make different contents. Agadmator is more concise than chessnetwork but is much more impressive when it comes to describe the context of games.

[@vancebocas7626]

@tteverywhere 97 what agad channel have you been watching? He ALWAYS shows the relevant lines and explains clearly what the reasoning was for and against a move, which is why his subscribers love him. ChessNetwork, Huchenbeth and others are so clinical and non relatable that it's painful for us laychessplayers to watch. Agad is more personable, understandable and technically sound enough to allow us to enjoy high level competition at our level while improving our vast knowledge.

[@hughtube5154]

Vance Bocas and also Agad's great sense of humour and phrasing. And Medo, can't forget him.

[@fernandomariz7057]

tteverywhere 97 Chess Network makes the video, more to explain and teach all the schematics present on the game, while Antonio is more about you enjoying the game, while you do get to learn something, he doesn’t do it so in depth as Jerry, since he isn’t all about the teaching as Jerry tends to be... So it’s two different approach. As I see it. PS: English isn’t my first language, so please forgive me any mistakes or wrong use of words in the comment.

[@FloydMaxwell]

I tried the others before Agadmator. After I switched (at 1k subs level) I never went back.

[@knuw3250]

thats the kind of games and videos i love to watch

[@drutgat2]

That was great. Thank you very much.

[@Dexsting]

Just found these videos and am addicted... trying to catchup on terminology like 'immortal', discovered check, and such. Opening of this video was hilarious about ISP...so clever!

[@andreialexandruparfeni7129]

Where's the dog?

tteverywhere 97 with the internet service provider

[@KM-fl5jq]

Installing latest version of Java..

[@kelvinmunozcometivos816]

tteverywhere 97 jajaja good question!

[@MrD3eath]

Hello beginner here with a question. At 2:37, why does Peter play pawn to G6 instead of G5? Help is appreciated!

[@milchkanne21]

Hello Internet and cheers from Germany! Please keep on your very nice uploads.

[@robinmorritt7493]

I watched this match live and can only say that Agadmator is the Richard Feynman of chess.

[@clow0123]

The photo from Carlen’s e4 is mind blowing!

[@matejjukic6623]

Wouldnt on 11:02 after bishop capture, queen on H7 followed by bishop G7 only move to defend and queen G7 be checkmate??

[@wreckim]

Such interesting and entertaining analysis. Thank you.

[@christianaustin782]

at 10:25, wouldn't bishop to G4 technically defend? I mean, you'd probably be down a piece at the end, but it's better than checkmate right?

[@vedangjoshi723]

Whoa.... Nb5! Didnt see that coming......🤘🤘 Bb5 too!

[@danceswithstone]

Guess that's why they call them Masters. Wow, what an amazing defense to such a brutal press! Hats off to Carlsen, Svidler, and Agadmator ♝♗

[@kabatovec007]

Bursted out laughing at the start with the providing, great saying !

[@horstgunther9521]

At 6:39 why not simply playing knight c7? You get the same tripple fork as shown before

[@horstgunther9521]

Ah never mind, i forgot that the queen was still on the c file in this variation

[@antoinegautherie2079]

For some reason it has come to a point where I'd be greatly disappointed if "Sorry about that" went missing And they're getting more and more diverse ! Keep it up

[@dr.parthasarathiroy1989]

Always love to see such games full of tactics and where Knights predominate over bishops..

[@dhruvshangari1664]

Excellent explanatory skills means a lot friend😊

[@tommonk7651]

Can you imagine how nerve-wracking it is be in the crosshairs of the attack of the world champion? Svidler did a great job to draw. Beautiful game!

[@MrKayDeeJay]

Great video! Thank you

[@HeartlandTuber]

I saw the bishop g5 move and SO wanted Carlsen to play it and go for the complications. But there was such tension in the position on both sides, and it could go either way, I understand the draw agreement. Fascinating, exciting chess. The way it should be.

[@kurdmanpouyesh]

"You lose the queen... and the game..." I like that sentence

[@amoldivo]

One of a few sharp games that I totally enjoy from Magnus Carlsen!!

[@gountaa]

All that firework to end up with a forced draw position, as Gm Ben finegold would say "damn, chess is hard"!

[@manolgeorgiev9664]

Just enjoying the show :D

[@welele9010]

The best draw i've ever seen. Fireworks!!!

[@vaniragujana]

very interesting game. Both players played very well. what will happen if carlsen played Qh2 in the last move instead of Qg3? If possible please analyse

[@Ykotb08]

never thought i would enjoy a draw this much! what a match

[@benjaminsmythe8967]

"If you enjoy playing moves like King to B1" - Exclam! Finegold says always play Kb1.

[@walterrf]

Hi Agadmator. Why haven't you uploaded any new videos? Please upload more games by Carlsen. Thanks.

[@ryanwolfe6191]

At 6:18 how if ... Qxf2?? How the game continue?

[@surestrikem1254]

Ryan Wolfe Nbc7#

[@Attlanttizz]

I saw the live stream, Svidler looked absolutely pained and was twisting and turning, while Carlsen was his usual cool self =).

[@EzequielMeler]

Hey Antonio, do you know the Goteburg variation in the Najdorf defense? It is called the argentinian tragedy because it was played simultaneously in three games, the most important being Keres Najdorf Goteburg 1955. Check it out!

[@kratostv9366]

I am by definition a very simple man. I see a Carlsen video I click the watch and like buttons

[@PushyPawn]

This game feels like a massage without the happy ending.

[@fatfighterxDDD]

this is so crazy, i didnt know chess was so beautiful

[@MostLikelyMortal]

Thomas Feinherb welcome to the rabbit hole that is competitive chess.

[@ryanmehring4080]

this question has probably been asked a lot but what is the board theme and pieces he uses? can it be found on chess.com?

[@RobotSantaClaus]

Why is the knight pinned at 4:10?

[@7_muhammadmuharromisusmaya196]

Because of Bishop g4

[@7_muhammadmuharromisusmaya196]

I mean h4

[@rahulmarkonda]

Can you do more Anand games? Vs Kramnik or vs Topovalov??

[@AmirIskandar]

4:13 why is the knight pinned?

[@marcinkopczynski592]

Because of the bishop h4.

[@davidborger7159]

I think even Maurice Ashley would say the 1.e4 move was *Smooth*

[@thisisDEL]

My internet service provider failed to provide me with the service of internet.. I died briefly 😂😂😂

[@thisisDEL]

...and it's not all that easy to come by internet these days 😂

[@Kariakas]

Carlsen seems to really be in great form for this tournament. Great game Svidler to hold off the onslaught.

[@EDAmirr]

9:08 hes an exchange down, sure hes not worse, but i wouldnt say he winning, i wouldnt even say he has more than a small advantage if isnt roughly equal at all, i wana play b5 and then Bf1

[@mechanicalmind07]

0:05 I don't know why but it's cracking me up😂😂🤣🤣

[@cjsarab]

This intro cracked me up :)

[@markmark8545]

you got a fan Antonio...I just played a player on lichess called 'Agadmater'....rating 1529...he/she played a good game :)

[@lucaskiller5653]

8:50 how is this line good at all? knight for rook

[@Scohill]

"internet service provider failed to provide me with the service of internet" that's some eminem level of word play

[@rs4ever090]

Are you still uploading the 1970s tournament? really enjoying that series!

[@sekaiiisan3709]

Agad always says something hilarious in every of his videos xD

[@15OgLoc]

What do they mean by sharpest line or move? because alot of pieces are going to get exchanged or why?

[@HorukAI]

15chagO enabling most tactics..

[@guineapig55555]

sharp as in "double edged sword"

[@15OgLoc]

Simeon Kiflie Thanks man.

[@chesslife2866]

My brain: -Tired need to get some rest please. Me : -Oh hell no! Agadmator uploaded new video. It's 04:17 by the way

[@MikeBassil]

Incredible how Carlsen can remain so confident being a piece down for so many moves in a row. I would have lost my nerves and recaptured the piece much earlier for sure.

[@Xzei]

@agadmator 9:07 Looks like black is winning this, no? Knight+Pawn>Rook? 3 pawn islands a piece, opposing bishops, positional advantage may favor white...

[@sarpersertel3484]

Dude, i really like your style. This intro was crazy as fuck.

[@richardfeynman5560]

I'm deeply impressed!

[@davidcopson5800]

Like a Sasquatch footprint?

[@MrSupernova111]

Amazing game! Even though it was a draw. This one is going in my playlist. :)

[@RobFlaxMusic]

Whoa! 6...Nbd7 doesn't get played all that much where I play. I see 6...e6 almost 100% of games that reach that position... Any advice on other instructive games in this line?

[@mlgbblade5221]

Rob Flax watch some kasparov games, he always played Nbd7

[@RobFlaxMusic]

Ooh great thank you!

[@mlgbblade5221]

Rob Flax me one thing I know about Nbd7 tho is if white plays Bc4 and back to b3, when the black knight is on d7 it can jump to c5 to get the light square bishop of white on b3

[@chengzhou8711]

10:35 I found Ng6 instantly. Feels good, man.

[@chengzhou8711]

Rahul Khanduri frig off I’m an excellent attacker

[@OldiesbutGoldies4578]

at 9:10 you say Carlson is up a pawn with this line? I don't think so.......

[@vladislavsharshukov2202]

agadmator knew about the internet service provider's failure even before he started to show the game, quite a guy!

[@abtahiabrar199]

2018?!

[@chadlemon4428]

At 11:02 isnt Qh7 mate in 2 ?

[@chadlemon4428]

Dark Impact oh yeah i missed king to e8 my bad

[@PushyPawn]

Anyone else noticed, over time, that Magnus likes to set up his board with the knights facings sideways? I've seen this on a number of occasions. Perhaprs to make them stand out as knights, vs. having them facings forwards/backwards.

[@cygnustsp]

Wonderful video

[@jhnsnw]

Agad, Mamedyarov is winning against MVL and you show a drawn game, why? :/
