Why was Naka surprised? | Pranesh vs Carlsen | Qatar Masters 2023 | Commentary by Sagar

17-year-old Indian talent M. Pranesh took on the world no.1 Magnus Carlsen. And what a game this was. Starting with an unconventional opening, the battle sizzled into an immensely complex game where Magnus was at some point a rook down! Did the strongest players on the planet manage to survive or was it the youngster from Chennai who emerged victorious. Check out this round 4 game along with the commentary by IM Sagar Shah.

Like Nakamura said in one of his videos these young players are really hard to defeat because they don’t play the typical moves that top gms do, that’s why they are completely unpredictable. He also mentioned that they don’t fear these GMs because they have probably watched 100s of games of Magnus online and prepared well!

14:33 Hikaru’s infiltration

[@shubakarthik]

He was waiting for a chance to congratulate Pranesh the same way Magnus congratulated Pragg after Hikaru's loss to Pragg

[@circles3446]

Pranesh has a lot of confidence- right from when he entered the security checks to the way he greeted Magnus and the way he played you could just sense it and that’s very important against Magnus. These upcoming youngsters don’t have that “fear” of playing against Magnus. They treat it as any other game which could be a reason they’re playing so well against him.

Bhai hum sport superpower kab banenge yaar Before i die i wanna see india becomming a sporting superpower like china ,USA Right now we a good at cricket,chess(we will become superpower in upcomming 10 to 15 years for sure),we were best at hockey,but as soon as artificial turf came we stopped growing in hockey😢,and recentlybcoz of N.C javelin became popular But thats is not the end,we have to be good at other global sports like football,hockey,boxing,ufc,swimming

[@comedefleurieu315]

I am quite surpised with this tournament, i have always heard that a > Elo's 200-difference is huge and impossible for the the low elo opponent to win, but in this tournament a lot of top GM didn't win easily or drew their games against 200 or 300 Elo below opponents !

Hikaru shouldn’t have come that close - it’s a little distracting at a crucial moment. You can see Pranesh giving him the look and yet he keeps persisting. Curiosity is one thing but don’t get so close to players

[@Dasluas]

Magnus is getting old. His mind set is different. He reject the world championship. He does not like to play classical chess like i'n the past. So now he is making experiments and even in this situation he is a beast OTB

[@evelynn4273]

This shows the power of prep. Magnus hates to prep and if he does prep, it would be for other Super GMs. All these kids have basically prepped all their lives specifically for Magnus. Magnus could play better, but he wouldn't find it very interesting. I think he has other activities he prefers these days, like partying.
