I think you also need to account for how comfortable Magnus is as a player. He cannot see everything about every situation, but he is remarkable to see a position and be positive that the position contains no unknowns. There are many examples where he is surprised that he is the only person in the world to sees something "obvious" in a position. I think his rating would be even higher if he understood the blind spots of others more.

@marcosc91302 роки тому
The problem with chess at this level is that there are not really not many positions possible, most players play always the best/2nd best position on every move, so in the long run it's not that hard to learn the patterns. (for them of course, for mere mortals it is not) and since most have a repertoire they stick with, they start to learn every outcome since almost every time people will play the best move to answer his, and if they don't he will punish, that's why so many games end in draw at classic, with time to think the game is basically a matter of who wants to risk playing something unusual vs sticking to the end in the main line of that variation and drawing.

@@marcosc9130 chess PATTERNS are not the same thing as concrete move sequences. there are thousands and thousands of ways in which every pattern can occur, and of course these patterns are usually combined, so an experienced player will break a given position down into several discernible patterns. that's what makes blindfold chess possible. that's more or less how our brains (and in modern times, artificial inteligence) are able to quickly recognize and decipher hand writing, for instance - by extracting the crucial patterns out of the overall complexity. for someone like Kaspar Hauser, who's illiterate and never learned to read and write, it would be nothing short of magic.

@@SuperLari1234 What do you mean, why? Because it is, dude. That's probably what was signed off on. Besides, the story ended in a perfect place. Beth Harmon's arc as a character is complete. Anything else would be cyclic and unnecessary. Perhaps Netflix could experiment with a completely new chess IP. Maybe a biopic on a player such as Paul Morphy, and his famous 1858 trip to Europe? But the Queen's Gambit is not a series that needs a continuation.

He can play the best chess in the world and also explain and make interesting to us a made-for-tv chess game. . He can bring it down to our level. That’s pretty shocking to me. Also shocking is the fact that the writers of the tv show were able to create chess games for the show that are interesting to him.

That's because they hired Kasparov to do it for them, they would go for absurd games as always, but Kasparov told them not to and personally helped create games that were both real enough, but not like stupid long and boring like a real championship match. Specially because back then games were a little more wild, since players didn't train with 3000 rating Engine since they are kids. Some people say they should have used real matches, but for the average person watching a game with 180 moves with a lot of depth is not feasible, imagine fitting 10% of the reason why the Najdorf is played that way. Or worse, translating the rather uninteresting "Queen's Gambit", very safe, very positional and making it exciting.

@@marcosc9130 "they would go for absurd games as always, but Kasparov told them not to" The fact that they hired Kasparov is by itself evidence that they DIDN'T want to go for absurd games, and that decision must have been made BEFORE he could tell them that (since he hadn't been hired yet). by the way it was Kasparov + Pandolfini, if i remember correctly. "Some people say they should have used real matches, but for the average person watching a game with 180 moves with a lot of depth is not feasible" i think you mean real games (not matches), and no, actual games aren't typically 180 moves long either. the actual game it was based on was a 72 moves draw (between Ivanchuk and Wolff), which was spiced up and converted into a 53 moves win, arguably adding MORE depth to it, as the actual game avoided complexities, exchanged most pieces and this was exactly why it took longer and ended in a draw. and the 72 moves that original game lasted - while far from 180 - was still pretty long by tournament standards. as evidenced by the fact that for Ivanchuk was actually the 2nd longest game (out of 13) he played in that tournament, and for Wolff the longest one. so whatever speaks against using real life games in TV, it's not their length as you imply. not to mention there's obviously no reason to show every single move on the screen - even a game consisting of 100+ moves could still be narrowed down to just the interesting parts for cinematic purposes.

I like the looking up bit. Its a super power for her. And the resoluteness with which she moves that piece when she returns from seeing all the possible next moves visibly shakes her opponent. And then the fact she spends no time thinking about her next moves and just does it also bothers him. As if he knows she just saw all these moves hes making and shes just playing out a forgone conclusion.

Thank you Magnus. I was a teen when Bobby Fischer defeated Boris Spaskey. In America, that really drove the popularity of chess up for the first time in almost a century. The Queen's Gambit really pushed chess up in the consciousness of Americans again. I had read that the games in the series were pretty realistic, but it is nice for the greatest current player in the world to analyze them. My only quibble is that it is hard to see all the moves in sequence, since this is a drama that focuses more on the personalities. When you were analyzing the games, it would have been helpful to put a little game board in the corner so we could better follow what you were talking about. In order to follow you, I had to slow down the sequences, stop them, and rewind a few times and have a board of my own set up.
