I really do not like the Sicilian Defense with the Nidorf or the Dragon. It is really easy to slay the dragon. All you have to do is eliminate the dragon knight, bust open the kingside, and hunt him down.

Watching the games with your descriptions and comments (and evident admiration for the brilliance involved, albeit modestly displayed) has been like visiting great artworks with experts. Whole new dimensions opened up, and great enjoyment. Thanks for all the hard work, Jerry. Going through your beginner to master series and greatly improving my understanding as well.

Great to read that. Thank you

[@tkimaginestudio]

Beautiful initiative by Ivanchuck. I had to laugh when you said "If the queen gets into g6, you can kiss all these pawns good bye." :) I also really appreciate the moments you choose to make us think about the best next move. Best chess channel on KZbin I know by a country mile!

"And the pawns are doubled" 8:33

[@oathsoul]

On move 39, could black reply with ...Rb7 ? This would interfere with white coordination on the back rank, and both rooks would be defended by the knight (if either rook is taken, the knight recaptures with a punch thrown at the queen). Unless I'm just not as observant of the board or followups, I'm not really seeing a good reply White can make to mitigate black's defense if 39 ...Rb7.

[@oathsoul]

Additionally, Black may favor a rook-rook exchange, after 39 ...Rb7, because it forces white to consider capturing on b7 (if the white rook moves out of the way, the b5 pawn will drop with a check)

[@italotrivisan9767]

[@Euquila]

Jerry, you are awesome!

[@pankajpathak380]

I have one question: in the endgame when Kasparov resigned the game, what would have happened if he played Rook to b7? In my opinion that would have been a save for black.

[@BoazAugustoMatos]

04:12 Re8 was not a better option than Qd8?

[@pramanverma6209]

Hey Jerry thank-you for the wonderful Analysis. Just one question, what does black do after c3 at 6:02 ?

[@cliffbartlett5799]

Be6. If cxd4 then Bxd4 and the white queen is dead, she must give herself up for the rook on f8. I dont think white would capture however, more likely is 20. Bxe6, fxe6 and white is doing well. Black has an open F file, but white will still ultimately win.

[@Palienify]

probably the same as he did after the rook move, bishop to e6. moving the pawn would be a bad idea..

How do you analyze most of your games? Takes me forvever to find why moves are played

[@sodacrasher9087]

Amuricuh He uses the chess engines to see the variations

[@threethrushes]

How did Kasparov not see the Bg7 move? I am a newb with sub-1500 ELO, and saw that move.

[@1998marijn1998]

Gerhard Symons Maybe Kasparov thought there would be enough compensation or he just wanted an interesting game and challenge himself. He almost certainly considered the bishop move as it is not hard to find.

[@Hot6Sauce]

You're better than Kasparov and should devote your life solely to chess.

[@threethrushes]

Marijn Verhaeg Yes, that's interesting that even super GMs might try to challenge themselves by making a position harder / or 'interesting'.

[@threethrushes]

Hot6Sauce Yes, you have given me the confidence I needed to study and become a GM and try and challenge Magnus. I think I can get to 2600 in a few months if I really try.

Error at 8:35 "pawns are doubled"

[@vigilante8374]

It's astonishing to see the then-world champion miss the quick equalization after 14.Bg7 and instead sac the queen in desperation so early in the game. Was this blitz? He couldn't have been in time pressure, and this shouldn't have been a move he spent less than 20+ minutes on. And it was the only other move to consider!

[@KARTIKEYA007]

mistakes happen

[@vigilante8374]

My point isn't that mistakes can't happen; it's that given the situation, he can't possibly have *missed* the other line entirely. That's just crazyness. I think that would be much more extreme than a grandmaster missing a mate in one. Anyone can overlook something that blindsides them, but if you're in a position that early in the game where you're faced with a queen sac, you're going to take stock of all the available options. And this was such an obvious idea, any patzer alert enough to notice the mate threat would spot the counter move right away... fianchettoing the bishop is one of the most obvious things in the world to do (it's not an "unusual feeling" move like the mate in one Kramnik missed.) That's how commonplace the counter-move was... it's a move that has its own special name. It's like... it's like the difference between getting in a freak accident with a lawnmower and losing your arm, vs. getting your arm stuck in the lawnmower (while it's off) and having to cut it off with a pocketknife out of desperation so that you don't starve to death. Freak accidents happen to everyone, professionals included, yeah. But the idea that someone would cut off their own arm without thinking long and hard about it and trying to figure out another way is... incredible. It's a different kind of incredible than simply being careless and missing a threat. To me, I think this is much more surprising than a grandmaster missing a mate in one. Because it's a conscious decision he made, not something that snuck up on him. And he definitely had lots of time left on his clock. The best I can figure is that there was some other danger he thought he saw deeper in the other line that turned out to be a mirage, but it was a danger that was so bad that he somehow thought it worth it to try rolling the dice on a queen for two minors exchange instead. It's an interesting mistake from a reigning world champion. I'm not denigrating him; I just think it's surprising and interesting to figure out how it could happen when he had an hour to think about it and he must've known that sacrificing the queen was an almost guaranteed loss.

[@justadult3493]

Why do people play Sicilian if black mostly loses? (i lose but I am no master, let alone gm) but it seems like white always has extra advantage.(development and positioning)

[@quantummath]

Kasparov's blunder cost him this game. In a way, what caused Ivanchuk's victory was more because of Kasparov's mistake rather than Ivanchuk's skills (which undoubtedly is/was one of the highest in the world).

[@weewee2169]

what blunder the bishop h6 from ivanchuk was sensational and even if only saving move from kasparov is played it only brings an even position where you could say ivanchuk has the slight initiative
