2nd Press conference Anand

25 January 2008 20:37 PM | Last modified: 13:47

For a moment it wasn’t sure who was going to do the press conference: Aronian or Anand. It turned to be Vishy and Levon was promised that if he’ll win the tournament, he’ll certainly be the one.

    Anand is a really nice guy, great analysis, he seems to be a very intuitive player.

    Extremely clear and comprehensive analysis by Anand, very few “maybe”, in a contrast with legends :). BTW, “In this kind of Sicilian’s, if White is pushing too much…”, who’s voice was it?

  3. Jeans on 25 January 2008 22:29 PM

    It is the voice of Durch WGM Bianca Muhren

    Thank you, Jeans. At first I thought that this was Judi. Stupid :)

    Vosuram: Do you mean Polgár Judit?
    Very high leveled analysis by the World Champ. Thank you Chessvibes, for showing us the videos.

    Well….for Judit Polgar to be at Anand’s press conference analysis would be unethical since she is playing the same tournament.
    As for bernd’s assesment of Anand being a “very intuitive” player…….he is the World Champion !!! what do u expect??

    Thank you Chessvibes for the great work! The videos are high-quality as always. Keep it up! I wonder whats the possibility of having Ivanchuck or Leko speaking their chess mind?

  9. Vosuram on 26 January 2008 0:37 AM

    Dear ChessCarnival,
    I think the only way to convince Ivanchuck to give a presentation is to promise him not to ask general questions, all must be about the game he’d convinced to analyze :( That’s it

    Dear Bernie.au,
    believe you or not, but girls are beyond of normal rules and logic

  11. ChessCarnival on 26 January 2008 0:48 AM

    Vosuram,
    Its very sad.. He seems to be a nice guy.. Do you know the reasons behind it? Thanks for the reply!

  12. Vosuram on 26 January 2008 1:09 AM

    Dear ChessCarnival,
    a simplified psychological model is as follows : I’m entirely focused oh something, say, chess (it may be half-true..). I don’t want any avalanches where single word leads to multiply discussions and takes too much time, which is a limited resource.

    A living legend.

    “Well….for Judit Polgar to be at Anand’s press conference analysis would be unethical since she is playing the same tournament.”

    What are you talking about???

    Bravo por Anand.
    ¡que partida!
    la veo en mi visor y alucino

  17. nick on 26 January 2008 2:25 AM

    it would be unethical, because it is the evening and she is a married woman…

  18. chessdrummer on 26 January 2008 2:51 AM

    That’s not J. Polgar at the press conference. She’s a player from the Netherlands.

  19. David K, Seattle on 26 January 2008 2:57 AM

    Regarding comments by Vosuram and chessCarnival,: with no disrespect to Ivanchuk but this question keeps coming up here, about why Ivanchuk does not do the press conferences: ‘The Mark of Genius: Memory, Autism, and Chess’ he is simply put, not an ordinary person, but a very special and unique individual.

  20. Theo on 26 January 2008 5:18 AM

    Anand is God!

    Great analysis! This guy knows what chess is about, for sure!!

  21. Ocelot on 26 January 2008 6:43 AM

    “it would be unethical, because it is the evening and she is a married woman…”

    Lol… hilarious!!

  22. Lajos Arpad on 27 January 2008 0:32 AM

    Anyway, Anand played a very nice and complicated defence with the black pieces. GM Marin wrote that Ng3! is winning instead of Bf3?!


Got something to say?
