When the world no.1 blunders on move no.8 | Arjun Erigaisi vs Hou Yifan 

Yifan was actually holding that position in the end before loosing on time. Maybe she would've lost anyway, but that's an amazing recovery after making a huge mistake right out of the opening - what a fighter!

It takes a great personality to smile after losing. Yifan is just awesome.

4:29 Sagar casually dropping life advice 😂

Arjun and Yifan handshake confusion deserves a compilation ....Arjun is so awkward man ...hilarious shit

Hou Yifan has just amazing positive personality

She still managed to make it exciting in the end. Just a time scramble.

I am more impressed for Hou Yifan than for Arjun. What a player! Despite having a loosing position in the beginning, she held on really well.

Excellent commentary!

Arjun Erigaisi's current blitz rating is 2737.8 while Hou Yifan's *inactive* blitz rating is 2583. She did really well all things considered!

The fact that Hou Yifan played like this after such a big mistake against a player of Arjun's rating when in effect she is a chess part-timer these days is absolutely unbelievable! Imagine how good she'd be if she played chess full time like most of the other top GMs. She's keeping up with the best pros when to her this is just a hobby 🤯🤯🤯

Credit to Hou Yifan for staying in the game after the blunder. She is very graceful whether she wins, loses, or draws.

Your commentary is out of this world. You keep us amateurs into every move.

What a wonderful game as well as video by Chessbase India!

Please make a video with Hou Yifan showing us an immortal of hers. It'll be nice to see her explain the intricacies in person

05:55 Yifan shows her class by sacrificing the knight.. Great Game..👍👍

What a player she is... incredible 🎉🎉🎉

Exciting game! Nice to see Hou Yifan again ❤

This just tells us how different top level chess is. Some of the tactics and understanding required to win the game is insane.

Great commentary !!!!

Arjun is becoming unstoppable

She did great comeback

I’m surprised arjun let his advantage slip so much. Was like he got chicken.

World number 1 at what? Aren't there like over 100 people with a higher rating than 2601? If you meant #1 woman than this should be stated or else it could be misleading to someone who is new to chess

Can't wait to know if Arjun found Nd5 over the board, very impressive!

This was nice. I haven't watched chess in a long time.

That was some amazing defence

What a fight from Hou Yifan 🔥🔥

Love how this guy narrates a game.

Superb defence

Bald Arjun is different gravy

4:35 Sagar shah blitzing life lessons 101

Apart from Re6 I believe Arjun had control throughout the game. His choice to trade the queens was obvious and even though the engine disagrees I think it's the best practical choice. The endgame is winning, not to mention the knight is in a perfect place to deliver forks and pick up material. All and all, I'd say it was a pretty clinical win after the blunder.

Clearly, That was nervous smile from beginning and she was sure she's going to loose anyway.

White Perform an Prey attract strategy & fast pace tempo attack form.

Arjun erigaisi is on saitama mode now.

Incredible game.. tbh.. she held on to that position for quite a bit... only to eventually run out of time..

the only missing here is sagar bhai.. if sagar playing too i guess we have a new champion from india

good job Bryan Mcknight😊

D5 is definitely in his preperationd

Considering Nd5 + - , she did well to put up a fight

Its the blush hand wave for me @ 8:20 😂

Isn't e5 an option to close the black bishop diagonal and saves everything?

Love this commentator!

The real star here is the commentator.

Well, at least it’s consensual

Good game

"THEIR IS NO TIMEEEEE"

Very decent gameplay😊

👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

Bro thought he will slide some life philosophy and we won't notice. 4:30

She isn't world #1. She isn't even in the world top 50. She's the women's #1, but that's it.

Keep Going Arjun.🏆

Everyone makes mistakes but Yifan is clearly the stronger player.

n1 female not everyone

Her smile is contagious.. but players have great respect for each other 😊

Yifan is cute

wrg, no coverx, outx, canoutx any nmw s perfx

After r*A1 yifan can go for r*c3 pinning knight and simultaneously stopping b*a8 that can cause draw or win even

Misspelled magnus but ok

After her blunder, why not bishop take knight on C6 with a check and then taking the rook?

Why did she resign?

Hou Yi Fan is pretty

Feels bad when strong players make a blunder 😢… I always support Arjun but it is not so much fun with pity

Gotta love your Indian accent on explaining the whole theory behind their moves)) I don’t mind the blunder knight sacrifice coz NO ONE on this planet has beaten STOCKFISH YET have they?)))

Yifan looks like a very sweet girl

Бедная Фанечка 🥹

She's not world number 1 is she? She's number 119.

First ❤

is Yifan the world #1? I thought Magnus was? Sorry i'm new to chess :

Hou Yifan is pretty.

Why is Arjun bald though :(

"World no. 1" actually means world no 97, right ? Or even lower right now. Feminism cannot compensate for skill, no matter how much some people want so. Chess forces them to see reality. Men are on another level.

Most no 1 players lose must be due to running out of time

this two had a different chemistry.. i dont know men.. if im the guy i would date this girl

There should not be a separate chess competition for men and women. Only for physical sports should there be.

Arjun's handsomeness got to Hou. 😅

Yifan wholesome, Arjun autist. Love both

She would have become the highest-rated woman for years passing Polgar, but she did not handle the natural stagnation period, and FIDE does not help.

Love your commentary but Yifan is not world #1, Magnus Carlsen is.

At 8:02 Arjun missed a really nice fork on the king and rook 😢

Woman nr 1 *...... its not the nr 1 in the world... false title

Why is he bald

Give them 10 seconds increment, to not having to lose on time. I‘d rather see them play a good game like this until the end.

it hurts to see Women world no1 getting crushed like this even though she lost on times if you look her face during the game looks like she almost was gonna cry Be it chess or tennis the distortion is very real between male players and woman

she is nervous played arjun,

I suggest calling her world's No. 122.
