Anish Giri vs Daniil Dubov - The Modern Day Tal Unleashed - World Rapid 2022 

Whenever dubov plays rapid, i remember what he said about the time formats: “if it’s classical, you have to study and rest, but if it’s blitz you can party the night before. For rapid, i don’t know! Do i sleep? Do i party?”

Dubov has to be one of the most fun people to watch play chess.

Tal would be proud ,very much proud

If anyone who doesn’t speak Russian wonders what were they particularly discussing after the game then briefly: Anish is interested were there any inaccuracies or mistakes earlier in the game before he blundered that Qc5 (which is actually quite easy to do even for a Super GM like Anish while playing on a seconds). And he asks if smth was wrong from the opening (as far as I managed to hear Anish confesses that he forgot the line with Bh3 followed by Rb8) and Dubov says that he have already played this line a few times before and Anish’s reaction with f3 and Kf2 was quite okay and with accurate game white should be okay but black have enough compensation for the material damage. Dubov than says that maybe 14.b3 was a little inaccurate and suggests move 14.Qd2 instead, Anish mentions 14. …c5 after that and then they both agree that after 15.dxc5 white should be okay (maybe even slightly better) because after queens trade despite b2 pawn being vulnerable white will have an idea of trapping the bishop on h3 with g4. Then they discuss the moment of the dagger pawn sacrifice 17. …e5! and Anish asks about 18.fxe5 instead of 18.dxe5 and Dubov says the he “counted a beautiful line” which is 18.fxe5; Qh4+ 19.Kg1 followed by bishop sacrifice 19. …Bxe5! And if 20.dxe5?? then forced checkmate sequence 20. …Rg4+! 21.fxg4; Qxg4+.22.Bg2; Qxg2# and if white try to trade of the queens with 20. Qe1?? then also practically forced 20. …Bxd4. 21 Qxh4; Bxe3+. 22. Qf2 followed not by 22. …Bxf2?? but by 22. …Rg4!! 23.fxg4; Bxf2# which is hell of a tactics in my opinion:) Then Anish smiles and agrees that it would have been an interesting way to end the game and then they leave. I am Korean who speaks Russian and you are welcome:)

The fact that anish didnt start the clock shows his class

Dubov sir is my favorite chess player

Players like Dubov makes chess popular!😊👍👌

3:03 chair adjustment in sync

Great class shown by Anish despite the crushing defeat. Didn't know he could speak Russian fluently!

So nice to hear Giri speaking russian!!! 😁

The bishop move preventing castling started it all😂

5:03 thats probably what a real life premove looks like lol

I want Dubov to be champion again some day!

Poor king was running for cover from one side to another side of board finally killed rest in glory Mr King

Dubov rook move lock all anish pawn movement. Also, i think anish late to castle the king open wide. and so dubov went into king hunting mode. Anyway, great game.

Dubov's king to Anish's king : why are you running

What an amazing game... Dubov security, calm and knowledge shows us the real mastery of chess. Even the way he moves the pieces... We really learn so much watching this incredible game.

*Dubov is monster.* 💀

Dubov is strong 💪

Thanks for preserving this great game on camera

thank you for posting this game, I was looking for it yesterday!

A great example of attacking play. He showed that a king wandering around in the middle of the board against 2 raking bishops, a queen and a rook was worth way more than 3 pawns.

Wow. I think this is one of my most favorite games ive ever seen. Dubov is such a tactical and positional genius. Gives everything away with no cares in the world all for attack and to create tactical opportunities for a massive attack. Love his play style. And thank you chessbase india for the amazing recording as always!

Modern day King hunt by Dubov 🔥🫡

Genial partida. Gracias Dubov por hacer homenaje a tus padres rusos del ajedrez.

Anis giri maen makan makan aj kaya ma3n catur di pos kamling eh ga tau nya umpan/pengorbanan .. bikin rusak pertahanan dgn kalah perwira tp dubov nemu celah buat nyerang... keren si duboz

Гири по- русски говорит?)

The reborn TAL unleashed. Anish Giri was so confused. The most enjoyable and surprising player. DUBOV!

Amazing chess player good luck

the white rooks are still in initial position .... amazing move by GM Dubov

Thank you! The board helps to appreciate the game!

ceremony like Magnus . Touching all the pieces b4, the first move .

It was Talish from Dubov. 3 pawns down but still your opponent running for dear life

Crazy game! Dubov must've said to himself: let's go king hunting today

F***k this guy's is a beast!!! It looks effortless almost boring for him. Each of his move's a dream...

For those who don’t know, they speak Russian after the game. Fun fact: Anish Giri’s mother is from Russia.

could anybody tell if they were speaking Russian or English? I couldn't hear at all; perhaps if I put headphones on I may have heard.

Sarin, Giri, Nepo - fantastic games played by Dubov

Really dubov has a creative talent .

the way Daniil slides his rooks instead of placing his rooks is cool

Гири мог бы своим королём и мат Дане поставить. Надо было правее взять 😂

По-русски оба говорят))

Anish speaks russian....say WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?

love watching this man

Dubov is so scary 😁👍💪🙏

Giri's speaking russian with him by the end??

Qué partidon!,con sacrificios.gracias y Saludos.

can anyone get what theyr whispering about?? whhwhshwhwhsh

Elo is only a number,creativity is most important

I wonder what they talking??

1:30 Daniil Dubov lost on move 1 when he played d5, due to the touch move rule in chess. He touched his king but moved his d-pawn. GG, but of course Drawish Giri is satisfied with a draw offer so he wouldn't claim his victory.

The time between 3:05 to 3:09 is hilarious, thats when Giri realized he is fucked

о чем они там в конце партии пистят...невозможно разобрать....Эй вы там звук получше можна делать?)))

Dubov looks funny, while anish giri looks sad all the time😅🤣🤣

Фантастическая Партия! Дубов Всегда "заточен" На Победу!

When I watched Dubov sacrificing one after another I was be like WHAT THE HECK !!!!!

Oh God I pray hard so that I can as well attack as DUBOV

I hv never seen Anish so helpless...😂😂 ...what a sacrifice rook pawn and then magic starts

What ahell ?? with black piece beated top7 of the world ??? I wish one day dubov become WCH

Нужно запикивать русскую речь после партии. Что эти русские себе позволяют?! Пусть рты как в футболе хотя бы прикрывают, чтобы сильные мира сего наслаждались только их игрой и не более

Now I know the reason why Magnus prefers to practice with Dubov

When I lose a game, I slam my laptop down and scream at the wall. These guys just calmly discuss what happened.

Very impressive 😮😮😮

The question is what Dubov was doing the night before the match - was he at party or slept all night, and with whom?

Anish, "Only blacks rooks can move right?"

Anish rooks sleeping

Am I the only one who likes the clock thingy

Why is Anish Giri light square bishop not return back to guard castling positions and is it just hanging on the centre of the board ? 🤣 Black easily taking advantage of this situation and won it

3:03 synchronzing the distance

I don’t know the language they are speaking but I could sit here and watch them talk to each other for hours for some reason

In Adelaide Novak Djokovic said" l respect Daniil a lot"😉

Dubov trying to pull off the magnus late entrance move while the clock is ticking 😂

0:09 Men will always be men :D

Anish speaks russian???

They did not turn off the clock when black won as if Giri had lost on time. lol

I'd love to hear the post game discussion.

Just imagine if you could be Dubov for about a year 🤔

What language they speaks thanks... . bet. Giri and dubov after the game

Dubov, the Shirov of this design!

8:00 what we do before mam arrives and while she teaches

Both from St, Petersburg chess schooll

Danill Dubov .. uraaa 😅

Yo I‘m quite new to chess and my question is why Dubov didn‘t played Qg2 at 5:09 ?

Anish giri played like amature

White rook didn’t move in whole game

is giri speak rusian ? wow

3:04 synchronized chair moves.

Anish Giri speak russian wtf

3:05 synergy

This Dubov guy... Dark horse for everyone

Super keren 😎🆒

Аниш..слабоват!!!!Дубов красава!Даня дал ему возможность ничьи!Тот не захотел!Получил мат!!!!Не быть, мне кажется ему великим чемпом!Я про Гири

Does Giri speak Russian?

Невероятно!

Traumatising experience

So Anish can speak Russian, English, Dutch, japanese, German and Nepali. Crazy.

I have seen Daniil in a couple of Games...and what a player. Big fan of him. Great Tal tribute...Kings of attacking chess.

Genius dubov
