Vishy Anand actually regained twice the title of the highest rated player in 2010 and 2011, but only for briefs moments. After 2011, Magnus has been the highest rated player uninterruptedly.

Antonio, I love your content. I think I said I recently got back into chess, if not, then I just want to reiterate my appreciation for your commitment to chess and chess history. I know watching your analysis of games has helped me. I appreciate the fact that you are passionate about teaching chess. I think I have watched your entire Paul Charles Morphy series twice and starting a 3rd. Love your analysis of the older masters and grand masters. Keep it up! All the best!!!

Boy where did time go? Magnus world #1 since 2010.

[Shootskas]

Finally solved the 'pause the video' moment...it only took about six years.

The name of the tournament corresponds to the different incarnations of the local steel works who organize it.

[DanielHill-yp]

With all the engines we have to train with in todays chess would Magnus be the greatest to ever touch a ♟️.

[Bombsquadcomedyshow]

Magnus plays like Tal while calculating like stockfish. It's really so beautiful.

[unverbosejohn]

Magnus is the John Connor of chess engines

Shirov was an expert at the Botvinnik variation from the black side, but even Shirov lost some games with it because of its many complications.

[yggdrasil]

Thanks for the detailed analysis of relevant lines. What a complex game

[TomTom-rhgk]

Perfect amount of variations. Good job.

[bmac]

I thought it was going to be a ruy lopez or italian game with this title tbh

[masonsultan]

I am hard of hearing. Please keep the volume at max. Let us control the volume level please. I love and really enjoy all your chess videos

[mugbhary]

Magnus .. my hero .. dude is inspiring in many ways apart from the game he has mastered

[yanair]

Fantastic analysis. Just one correction: @ 8:35 black is actually up material.

[kahwigulum]

The reason Magnus will always be the goat is that he plays with whimsy and the most like a human. Other players study too much and make robotic, academically-sound moves, and follow principles which every GM has mastered, which is why they lose.

[davidbakker]

Thanks for the game again, Agadmator! And not that is very relevant, but just because you are a good pronounciator of names: Smeets is pronounced roughly as 'Smaits' would be in English.

[yggdrasil]

Wow the whole game was played before, up to move 23. Aren't the chances of that infinitesimal? Maybe not if the lines have been studied, but still... so many variations up till then

[bamvideos]

It's incredible how good at chess Magnus Carlsen is

[Nemzo_ded]

Everytime he says we get an equal position me: huh are you sure ?
