    Everyone is saying how he stayed with Naka but he was slowly strangled right out of the opening. By around move, 13(?) (1:11) a3 .... Rc8 and Naka is bearing down on his c-file that he can open at his discretion, while White's K & Q are right in the line of fire. Blacks centralized Bishops bear down on the g8-a2 and f8-a3 diagonals. You can just see the queenside pawn storm coming down those c-b files, even though a computer probably can't; it is an intuitive attack, which favors Naka. White tries to counter on the K-side but his queen is tied up across the board in defense. By around move 18 Qa4 (2:14) is a slight blunder and it all falls apart. Very instructive game.

      Yeah, it's a tough one, though. If you don't stick the landing the move is invalidated and you have spent the flip on one of your knights without gaining anything - as you can see in the video.

      angelandsoul Soul I agree he was indeed pretty good, but it's just that I didn't want to use anything inappropriate such as "amateur" or "inexperienced". You just took what I told in a wrong way. Also, to be honest, even though he may appear to be holding on pretty well, to a Super GM of Hikaru's level and experience, he must have been in a dead lost position since many moves ago either strategically or tactically. I never meant anything bad against him as I personally felt that he was quite good, but it's just that I was seeing it considering a world class GM's level. So you need not be so rude, and in fact, it is you who needs to see things from a different way rather than having a fixed, negative way of seeing things! So hope you yourself do not come under that "99 percent of the viewers of this video".
