A very honest Magnus revealed that he would never have pushed e5 if he didn't overlooked that he will or could loose a pawn by doing so! Very interesting. ruclips.net/video/6X6YmRumeLc/видео.html around 08.00.
8:48 In a recent interview with chess24, Carlsen admitted that e5 was actually an oversight and he didn’t see that he would lose a pawn. But he was pleasantly surprised to find out that the tactics was in his favour!
I hope to see Anand vs Shakh game, that was thrilling. At some point it looked like Shakh was going to slaughter Vishy but then things turned around quickly.
Bringing the bishop from b2-c3 to a5 was a very nice positional idea before hopping the knight to the d5 outpost. Reminds me of Fischer games, he was also able to let his GM opponents look like they had no possible resistance during the whole game
When I saw this game I was reminded of a game deeply annotated in the book Zurich International Chess Tournament 1953. Game Najdorf v Petrosian. The pawn structure is very similar and just as in this game, Black ends up with no plan to obtain effective counterplay. I wonder if Magnus knew of that game?
@Keith Alfred Anthony Donovan Name of the book is The Chess Struggle in Practice, Bronstein, I'd forgotten the name. I notice now that the two games are not identical because in the Najdorf game, White had a pawn at e3, not e4. But still close.
I see the difference between 14. Qe1 and Qd2, but why not Qe2? If the line that follows Qe1 leads to 17. Qe2 doesn't playing Qe2 immediately save a tempo?
The actual game line indicates why Qe1 is good, because Carlsen shifted the Queen to c3 to form a battery. From e2 that would not be possible in one move.
What a depressing game for Rapport. He was on the defensive since the start. Yes Magnus did win in his style but the game was sad... The Radjabov-Vidit game actually had some fightback from Vidit... This was like waiting to get killed. I saw this game live and was sure it was matter of time after the opening.
Hmm. Daniel defends the move 14 Qe1 saying that if 14...Bd7, 15 e5 is good for White. Maybe but it's not a slam dunk at all, 15 e5 Ng4! 16 exd6 Bxd6 17 Nc3 Although the resulting position is structurally not so great for Black if it reached an endgame, at least he's not being squeezed like in the game. Now two choices for Black: 17...Bc6!? or 17...Ne5!? idea Nc6. So 17...Ne5 18 Ne4 Nc6. Now 19 Qe3 (Stockfish) Nd4 20. Nxd6 Qxd6 21. Rad1 e5 22. f4 f6 works out okay for Black, but 19 Rd1! looks much better for white. So Black's definitely under pressure here, his main hope for counterplay via the b-file and the plan a5, a4 has been squelched by White. Is the whole variation in trouble? Interesting.
Don't you think that u should also make analysis on Anand's game??....he aslo has +3 and leading tournament....aslo in game 1 he had decisive game...but you had analyzed Carlsen's draw game but not a decisive game by Anand

One of MC's smoothest wins to date.
It takes brilliance to make it look so easy.
magnus drawlsen is #1

Watched the game online. But still like to watch your analysis! Thanks a lot King:)))

wow ... most waited video online now .,. . thanks GM King
Thanks Daniel, for a thorough analysis and good commentaries. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the coverage. I think this was a strategic masterpiece by Carlsen. One of his best games of the last months. I all looks so easy.
Great analysis as always!
Please cover Anand - Shak game as well
Brilliant game
Love you Daniel! Keep it up!
Great stuff
the game is a masterpiece as well as this channel!

Ask yourself, in the game where does the queen move to after e1?
The actual game line indicates why Qe1 is good, because Carlsen shifted the Queen to c3 to form a battery. From e2 that would not be possible in one move.
Besides, the object of Qe1 was to support e5 push, but still keeping an eye on Qc3. It's all about logical threats.
VEry good win by Magnus excellent strategy, thanks a lot Daniel my favourite way to start the day. All the best.
It's funny how a subtle and mysterious move like Qe1 can be so powerful.
Very reminiscent of game 2 of the 2014 world championship for some reason
Plz analyse anand and Mammedyarov game

Who on earth gave dislikes??
Anyway, great game and great commentary.
that was a beautiful knight on d5
Oh hey, it looks like "The Latest Of The Greatest" is getting his form back. He must be getting his nappy time in.
Rarely do we see a grandmaster so tight and bottled up as Richard was after 25 moves. He could do precisely nothing, in attack and in defence.
Absolutely brilliant game by Carlsen. Nimzo will be chuckling from his grave!

Analysis of a and vs shakh??
Patience is a virtue...
Poor Kramnik. What is happening to him?
King Carlsen!
Don't you think that u should also make analysis on Anand's game??....he aslo has +3 and leading tournament....aslo in game 1 he had decisive game...but you had analyzed Carlsen's draw game but not a decisive game by Anand
become a patreon and then Mr King will take your inputs seriously
Patience is a virtue...
Magnus you're too humble after the WC
Revenge is sweet.
HAHAHA E5 was a blunder :) brilliant
...but turned out to be a brilliant move all the same :)
I just wish you could show more games where Carlsen actually loses, it gets a bit boring watching him either win or draw all the time.
he doesn't lose often, so if you know of any games he lost in the past month then let us know, k thnx bye
Fischeresque.
