Praggus sis became a GM this week. They are the first bro/sis that archieved this feat😂

[AlexSevilla]

Karpov scared him straight! The 3 year old kid got PTSD that day.

[ImPedofinderGeneral]

Misha Osipov isnt disappeared, subtitles say Karpov carved his new chess pieces from his bones

[chirag]

Gukesh now won the candidates and became the youngest to do so

[BitcoinMotorist]

I think having a three-year-old play chess on TV with a former World Champion is borderline abuse.

Viswanathan Anand is not a chess player. He was a revolutionary. This guy single handedly made a chess revolution in india. For 1.4 billion people, he is the God of chess

[abhramukherji]

And Now 4 months later gukesh won the candidates, becoming the youngest and 2nd from India after vishy anand. Going to challange world champion.

It is strange that no one ever mentions Vincent Keymer. He turned 19 just a few days ago, #14 in the world, trailing Pragg just by 2.4 Elo points and ranking before Vidit, Erigaisi, Abdussatorov and Gukesh. Plus he has beaten Carlsen lately and just failed to beat and eliminate him in the second game because he did not convert a winning position. Guess he has to be in the top five before people can't ignore him anymore.

Ossipov was never chess prodigy, just a cute child who learned chess moves very early and was hyped in Russian TV.
Mishra is doing OK, won US junior Championsips and had 4th place in adult Championships after Caruana, So and Dominguez.
Pragg is a real deal.He is already no.13 in the world and top 10 is not so far.

Talent has always been there in india it's always about the opportunity. As india's economy grows it has substance for other things and supporting sports is one of them. You will notice that not many companies sponser chess but huge indian corporation are keen in spending a lot of money on the promotion of chess. After Vishy, a whole generation full of talents went on steroids like a big bang and the country just exploded with potential.

In my heart, Vishy maight not be the best chess player but he's the greatest. I mean, which WCC could inspire an entire country of 1.4B and nurture a wave of talents? From zero GM's to now becoming a powerhouse. What an inspiration.

Who is watching this after Gukesh winning the FIDE Candidate..

[philippederrick]

Pragg is doing well and by the way what happened to this kid Magnus Carlsen who managed to draw against Kasparov at the age 13 ?

[ayaanarora]

"Misha had a peak fide rating of 1173"
me who has a fide rating of 1109:

[anoukadel]

Gukesh learned the game at the age of 7, so it took him 10 years to win the Candidates!

[debasishraychawdhuri]

Gukesh was so talented that he became a Grandmaster without learning opening theory. After that, he was advised to learn opening theory.

[Smackitt]

Pragg is is not a fake prodigy . He is real one. He is playing at Candidates 2024 .

[_random_guy]

india is becoming the new powehouse of chess

[krishkrish]

This video aged like a fine wine, after gukesh wining the candidates and becoming the youngest player to do soo

[ankitbishnoi]

Still looking for the part 'where are these prodigies now' you only explained about world produced young chess talent

[NotQuiteFirst]

Weird that you mention the movie "Searching For Bobby Fischer" but didn't feature the subject of that film Josh Waitzkin, who is probably the most famous young chess prodigy who left the game
