The 2022 FTX Crypto Cup sees Magnus Carlsen, Alireza Firouzja, Levon Aronian, Anish Giri, Jan-Krzysztof Duda, Liem Le, Hans Niemann and Praggnanandhaa gather in the Eden Roc Miami Beach Hotel in Miami, Florida for the 2nd Major on the $1.6 million Meltwater Champions Chess Tour. $210,000 and a $100,000 Bitcoin bonus is at stake in the 7-round all-play-all tournament. Each match consists of 4 rapid games on the chess24 Playzone, with the winner earning $7,500 (3 points). If the match is tied there's a blitz tiebreak, with 2 blitz games followed, if needed, by a single Armageddon game. The winner earns $5,000 (2 points) and the loser $2,500 (1).
For each rapid game the players have 15 minutes for all their moves, with a 10-second increment after each move. For blitz games it's 5 minutes and a 3-second increment, while for the Armageddon game White has 5 minutes to Black's 4, but a draw counts as a win for Black. No draw offers are allowed before move 40. Official website: chess24.com/tour

Youngsters are really giving a good show for the chess fans ,next generation is so powerful and so accurate

[@iblahim2000]

That's one of reason why I prefer to watch Chess than others sports except Formula 1, in Chess, it was not better before ... We live a golden era with old generation (Carlsen, Nakamura, Nepo ...) and new generation (Firouzja, GUkesh, Pragg, Abdussatarov, SIndarov, Dubov ...). Except F1with Verstappen, Leclerc, Russell, Norris ... The others sports live a poor era ...

[@niagra898]

Don’t forget about the 1st Gen. The incomparable Vishy.

Cleary why Pragg lost this game is because somewhere around 4:42 Alireza started playing from both sides of the board. This should be illegal.

[@nicbentulan]

Maybe next gen alireza succeeds Magnus as world chess champion but Pragg succeeds Wesley as world #9LX champion?

[@flytoheights1]

Sometimes it’s better to play practical and not waste all our time trying to find the best move. Then we won’t be put in a situation of playing on low time.

[@victordeluca7360]

Easier said than done when you're a gm playing another gm

[@yashmehta9299]

Love that agad puts such focus on pronouncing even the difficult names. The current pronunciation of Praggu is quite good! :D Tips if you wish to better it a little more: south Asian (and Japanese) names do not have a syllable you stress. Yes, the first ‘na’ is different (rhymes with far) from the second ‘na’ (sounds like nun), but the stress/loudness/tempo on all syllables is the same. Cheers!

[@words007]

Praggu is really good player but he needs a little bit more speed to not get time out pressure like this

6:17 why not Kd3

[@arq_9235]

nxf3 gxf3 and then rd1, attacking the undefended knight. If you move the knight, the rook on e1 falls, and defending the knight with rc3 puts you in zugswang. So the best option would be to sacrifice the knight for the pawn, but then ur a piece down and lose anyways.

[@carron979]

@@arq_9235 good...yep, and the Knight on d3 can also be attacked by the bishop

[@MooneLightEntertainment]

*The best way to play Pragg is to attack and counterattack him. Attack at any chance you get and counterattack rather than just defend.* I've noticed that Pragg constantly plays an attacking game and often his much older opponents can't stomach his guts and soon find themselves defending and defending. The problem with that is that when you're defending, you're not attacking. Had Firouzja played a defensive game here, he would've been a goner. Pragg just knows how to keep throwing such good and precise attacks that leave his opponents no room to ever really get the chance to fully mobilise their defences. Playing a defensive game against Pragg is very much akin to following Magnus into an endgame. To play Pragg, the big guys must stay offensive, Pragg is still young and isn't as patient and risk averse as the old dogs. However, since Pragg is still young, it's only a matter of time before his defences catches up to his offences. If that happens, then he'd be one mean fellow on the board who leaves a trail of mutilated dead bodies everywhere he goes.

[@Luffy..X]

we really need you to show us the bar and the time of each move, instead of opening another window and checking every time, try for us and make sure it will be more fun

[@bjoernogthomas]

He have said a million times why he doesn’t do this.. a computer evaluation completely takes the excitement out of the board position and isn’t always even meaningful.

[@Luffy..X]

@@bjoernogthomas This is an opinion we respect, but as an example in this video Converting -10 Into a Win you can only understand by watching the BAR and how it oscillates between victory and defeat. For these reasons we insist on showing the BAR, believe me it helps a lot to understand the wonderful analysis by Aqa, and brings you closer to the critical moments in the match

Agad has mentioned that who of the 2 (White or Black) he puts in the thumbnail is completely random, and thus not correlated to who wins or loses. Any appearance to the contrary is just your brain keeping the instances that fit its theory and disregarding the instances that don't.
