I could hypothetically beat Anand if I was good enough

I have beat 1 2000 in all my games, does that mean I am better than other 2000s

Avatar of JijoAttumalilJose

Yes! Self confidence and self esteem is the key stone of success. So, you are better.wink.png

Anand has the best tactical depth of any active player.  He routinely springs combinations 6 and 7 moves deep.  You'd have to be GM-class in terms of your own tactics to stand any chance against him.  The "Anand only looks three moves deep" statement is kind of like when Richard Reti said he only looks at "one move, but the right one".  You're supposed to know better.

Dude...only 6 moves? I can think ten moves ahead. 

I can think 278 moves ahead you noob

Look these blitz games make me blunder. I am pretty sure I could win a match versus you in a long time control game. Wanna play 1? 60 mins or daily?

10/0, take it or leave it

Ok I accept. Whenever your ready

You could beat Anand if you got on the phone with Magnus and asked him for help. lol

You can play 3/2 with me

I bet he joined as a player with a rating of advanced just to show his rating was so high, but he is actually not that high rated

Avatar of varnite5

Rating is not just a number, I bet if you were the highest rated person in the world, you wouldn't say that.

Avatar of varnite5

Ratings can be different than the actual strength of the player, but it doesn't differ by more than 1000

Avatar of varnite5

Play at least 100 games, and when you are at least within 500 of Anand's peak rating then come back and say this

Avatar of krazeechess

bruh anand and most top tier gms can prob calculate at least 15 moves ahead and they have greater knowledge of the ideas in the positions which are worth calculating so you wouldn't stand a chance against him. tbh he could prob crush you blindfolded and time odds.

he wont play me In daily, he aborted our game, probably saw I was 1870 in rapid and bailed

Avatar of jbent02
