@@Chess_Thugs But that is the point of LEARNING for God's sake 😂😂 And the transition between champions would be way more logical, who beat who and so on
Every single sport in the world kicked all the Russian players from tournaments and events even if they didn’t have an opinion about the Russia Ukrain war they will be disqualified regardless unless they go international and say that they don’t agree with Russia behaviors and they feel ashamed of it etc…
One can divide world chess champions into two groups. Those who at their peak dominated, were far and wide the best chess player around, at least for a few years. These are Steinitz, Lasker, Capablanca, Alekhine, Botvinnik, , Fischer, Karpov, Kasparov, and Carlsen. Add in pre-world championship dominator Morphy and you have the greatest 10 players of all time. And those who were world-class players who captured the title, but never dominated. There was always even or near-even competition. These are Euwe, Smyslov, Tal, Petrosian, Spassky, Kramnik, Anand, and Liren.
First he was for 10 years behind Kasparov, when Kasparov retired there was a three-way race for #1 of broadly equally strong players with Kramnik and Topalov, where Anand came out on top by a slim margin, then came Magnus. Anand was and is great, and arguably one of the best flag bearers and ambassadors for chess ever, but I don’t think one can say he dominated as the other guys did.
Style of this video reminds me of the programming channel "Fireship". If this was a restaurant, Fireship might sue you for common law trademark infringement!
A tournament organised by a free(democratic) countries in a free country and than a player is disqualified for having different political views What a democracy and freedom of speech
Do you people still not understand that freedom of speech applies to the government not any private organization? Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences.
Alekhine has own debut, Euwe was FIDE president, Fischer has "memorable games", Kasparov losed to Deep blue, what chess champions contributed into chess (others?) Kasparov provided dismoral after losing to computer engines.. so
You forgot to mention how many of them were Jewish... Bobby Fischer, William Steinitz, Emanuel Lasker, Mikhail Botvinnik, Vasily Smyslov, Mikhail Tal, Garry Kasparov. Also Judit Polgár and Nepo and many others. There is only 0.2% Jewish in the world. (Back then there were even less).
