@samirhossain there are two important factors. As you age - your knowledge and understanding of chess increases. On the other hand your brain becomes less plastic and your ability to learn and concentrate decreases.
When you look at a rating graph of any chess player in history you will see it increase, peak and then decline. This peak seems to occur around the age of 30.
These are facts that we cannot ignore. You can quote individual exceptions but there will always be reasons for these.
You made this comment a year ago now so maybe you don't remember, and I'm not critizing it, I'm just wondering how you figure Nakumura to be lazy? doesn't he play on icc allot? and allot in general? like right after he won the last US championship he played anyone that wanted to play him in the lobby of the hotel, blitz games. You mean he doesn't study games?
is it possible to compare ages and the potential for success? I dont know about that. Like for example, in Bill Paschall's lecture on Leonid Stein's game i saw kinda disagrees with this...Leonid Stein started chess at early 20s and managed to be a master level at age 24 but later on he was able to compete at the top levels against Petrosian, in addition, ppl say that one lacks potential at chess as they age, Anand is quite old now, and he is current WC, thats harder than being a GM for anyone...
