'Didn't age well!' - Carlsen, Giri, Twitter and 1.b3/b4 opening!

The Anish Giri, Magnus Carlsen rivalry is fun not just because they have great games over the board but also because their Twitter wars are legendary! This time at the FTX Crypto Cup Carlsen opened the game against Anish with 1.b4!? As soon as the game ended, Anish tweeted something! And then Carlsen retaliated, not by another tweet, but by playing another opening on the board! What happened? Check out this video to find the complete story!

AD is smart to make AG marketing head for his 1. b3 Course 😂😂😂

[GulshanKumar-mimn]

Bruh legit AG is so witty, he's most loved chess player imo

[nikhilsharma]

AG is a really skilled player and he is my favourite player

[vikram]

A minute silence for all those trolling ADs course.

[techybeetech]

AD getting free advertising for this course, near future my instinct may be forced to buy this course 😂😂

[spanishaddict]

Hey sagar would you mind showing Rubinstein vs Nimzowitsch 1928 berlin in your next know your classics series. It was a prophylaxis masterpiece.

[anveshshekhar]

Sir At 8:56 instead of taking can we instead take with the bishop on f6 and if white takes back the knight can escape

[rohitkorde]

I loved you explaination of the games but did I just hear 'stay in touch' 😂.

[shellykorol]

Imagine Magnus an Anish having a chess battle on twitter (like an actual full game😂)

[vinayakswaroop]

In the Magnus vs Grischuk game, after nxg7 the bishop on b2 looks at the rook on h8, therefore white can go nh5 and if nxh5, then bxh8 and wins the exchange, is there anything I'm missing??

[viishalpathak]

2:47 what abt nd6 ?.. its a fork to bishop and rook

[shade-e]

B3 is in Nepo's Repertoire, B3 is not bad but at that level maybe a little risky

[jatashankar]

Fast forward, i got the technique employed. 😂😂

[dakshmalhotra]

4:24 what about d5 ?? is that a beneficial move ?

[NehaSharma-gevj]

This Day was full of intense and amazing chess

[hoodie]

1.b3 nimzo Larsen attack by Ben Larsen or adhiban🤔

[benbridge]

Knight to f4 (just lets that sit for a bit)

Me knowing nothing about chess: 😮

[calmmelodies]

Sagar Bhai even getting content through Anish tweets 🙄😅😅

[koalalah]

My very amateur instincts are telling me why not pawn f4 at the end?

[santanubiswas]

I thought didn't age well comment was for firouza as he lost badly to Anish. It was Anish's of trolling firouza
