The first lesson in chess. We all lose games. Even world class prodigies lose games. That was a cracker. I am sure Prag will be even stronger for the lesson. Thanks, Antonio, as always for the exposition and the commentary.
@@irfanyamashita7184 yes, they do. I am 74 and not in very good health so I have a lot. Before I start playing I ask myself what kind of day it is. If it's really bad I play casual games because I know I am going to lose. Good luck with your chess.
It figures Pragg would move the bishop to e7 cutting off escape squares for Mishra’s king but Bf4 did look ideal than when Bishop captures e5 it would’ve helped Pragg create better offensive threats
Every great player looks down the barrel, they come back hard and ferocious. Ding and Pragg are going through the same patch. Alireza is going through it since the last 2 years, Magnus has had bad form multiple times, so did Fabi. Hikaru is the best, he loses to 1900's wearing a pink shirt.
I think that in that Critical Position that layers like Fischer, Kasparov and Tal would have taken much more time as they would have instinctively sensed the vulnerability of the Black King and would have worked out how to do it. As Boris Spassky once said' There is in every game a moment when it is the Critical Position which requires one to look at all possibilities in depth. The problem lies in that no one is just quite sure when that Critical Position occurs. Prag needs to take a look at some of Spassky's games as her sure did know when the CP occurred.
Nice game Pragg falling short on his offensive attack Tough loss hope he bounces back and starts playing the kind of great chess he’s capable of Hope to see more great games from this tournament Thanks Agadmator Enjoy your day
Great game between two of my favorite young players. Both have an incredibly aggressive play style. Abhimanyu played brilliantly in the US Championship with nearly as many wins as Fabi who won. Played all in just like here. He was on the C squared podcast then as well. Great interview, well worth watching.
Pragg is a wonderful player but he does have a tendency to over push without a concrete idea. This game similar to that v Gukesh in candidates where he had Gukesh on the ropes but couldn’t find winning sequence of moves (Gukesh defended exceptionally). It’s what makes Pragg’s games so fun though.
This is one game after quite a while that I have lots of questions on other variations, in almost every 3-4th move... I'm gonna mark this one for detailed study. It would be helpful to explain other possibilities in more places, to help with us beginner/intermediates learning....
I used to think of Mirko Crocop.....whenever I heard Croatia.....but I saw a "Croatian Cowboys in Wyoming" Headline and immediately thought of you....✌
Abhimanyu mishta represents US , praag represente india , it just cool to ssee that even of mishra becomes IS CHEss championship he will still be indian to dominate that chrss Scene
That's why I don't play this Bg5 line even in giuoco piano, bunch of sharp lines and you really have to know your stuff, I have studied them for days but in the end it always feels like I am missing something, no Sir, I am not playing this, lots of memorization.
@@DarkKnightIndia Why so rude? In my mind there's a ton of differences between the two and Spanish has even more playable variations early on - that's why I love it.
I dont want to sound arrogant but the pause the video moments, while fun, were also straightforward. Especially, the follow up part for the first moment.
