    "always occupy the center" "king d4!"
  • @carpetjuise
    Vassily is the type of person to reply "k" to a 3 paragraph text threatening to attack him

    When you take King's Gambit too literally
  • Ivanchuk is my favorite player The man is a walking meme/legend
  • @oneputtsteven
    All those pieces swarming Chucky's King and none of them can make a meaningful check or win material. Chucky is simply amazing.
  • @xyon9090
    One does not simply mess with Ivanchuk.
  • @bdbailey
    7:03 Ivanchuk: Has his king in the center of the board, all of Yi's pieces close to it Also Ivanchuk: Ooh free pawn
  • Games such as this are the reason why grandmasters check for Ivanchuk under their beds at night.

    You just can't win against a stubborn old man that just ignores all of your attacks ...
  • @ojasdighe875
    Ivanchuk ur king is on d4. Ivanchuk's reply: well yeah m gonna capture his queen with my king 🤣🤣
  • Ivanchuk´s king makes me think of Neo in Matrix with bullets flying around him but never losing control.I´m really enjoying your videos on Vasily´s games,thanks a lot! I was active in chess when Ivanchuk came out in the late 80es,and now I´m enjoying chess again after many years.Is great to see how this man displays his talent! Thanks again!
  • @ahmadfahmy
    was looking forward to Ivanchuk promoting the king.
  • I am becoming an Ivanchuk fan after watching your channel for some time. It is also refreshing to see the other side of the attack. Games with brilliant attacks are frequently featured, but games where an attack is calmly fended off with precision and insight don't seem to be featured as often by commentators. Thank you for selecting this.

    When Vassily is on-point, no one can beat him. The only problem is that he is inconsistent, otherwise he would have been a long reigning World Champion.
