Congratulation Nicola! Greece is proud of you
This is why many top-level GMs dislike open events. On any random day, someone 100+ points (a lot at the highest level) can upset you.
maybe arjun is overrated and these players are not underrated at all. /s
The ratings don't matter these days as everyone is exposed to chess knowledge equally. Therefore, rather than considering this an 'upset', in my opinion, we need to 'accept' that GM Arjun Erigaisi was soundly beaten in this encounter... (No offence intended to his fans! 🙏🙏)
@@lakshithachessJust because everyobe is exposed to chess equally doesn't mean that ratings are useless. Rating is a sign of your chess strength not your chess knowledge.
not always
@@TI-dl5ujwoww one loss and he becomes overrated. Magnus list to a 10 yr old boy. Does that mean Magnus is overrated? It's ridiculous how winning so many matches means nothing to ppl. In last 1 year Arjun has played so many matches and lost few that's why his rating is where it is. He recently played not even a week ago Grand Chess Tour and in the furst two days he was on 4th position. He went down later on but thay tournament had all top players and many performed worse. Give that boy a break!
Great play by Theodoru. Simple but effective.
I did not think that it was simple. White sacrificed two pawns to create the threats around e6. Bravery against 2750+ opponent!
For those who don't understand why Arjun resigned -see there are many threats that white has One is Bc2,with an attack comming on h7 and bishop joining in.
Also Re8 is also a big threat with exchanging the rooks and checkmating with the other rook on d 8 square .So black can't handle both threats .Hope u got it
h2? You mean h7?
Ok I edited it
thank you for this
Come back Arjun, something we have to cheer for your guts in participating all the tournaments
congratulations to Nikolas, he is a great talent, we have 3 to 4 players in Greece!
My favorite opening from both sides. White played very well!!
Set your camera on fixed focus range.
Well done to the Greek boy. Arjun will just show in the next game his class is different.
Why did Arjun blunder knight, instead of protecting with Rook
Heartbreaking blunder
where is sagar
Chessbase India are u covering LBHM chess festival?
Arjun comeback stronger 🎉
Why did he resign? I don’t see a clear win for white
bc2 is coming
@@a.8597plz elaborate further. Even i didn't get how white wins
@sohamlagu3077 see there are many threats that white has One is Bc2,with an attack comming on h2 and bishop joining in.

The threat Bc2/ Qh7+/ Bg6 mate can be parried only by giving up Queen for Bishop.
😢😢😢
Top people do lose not everyone is winner everytime
play and win in the style of .... Veselin Topalov! Excellent attack by the young Greek against currently the strongest Indian (for me)...
there wasn't any apparent blunders. At this level, even a slight inaccuracy can be good enough to lose the game.
Isn't 24...a5 a blunder/miscalculation? Black has no defense after this. He should give e6 some extra protection with 24...Re8 when white at best has a slight initiative (computer says dead equal, but this hardly matters in practical play)..
For years we've been taught that only good move is . ...Nc6 and that . ...Nd7 is "too slow and passive". Keres and Polugaevsky took many precious scalps in this deterred Tarrasch defense. Fischer drawed against Spassky with theoretical . ...b5! in 1972. But the matter is thst black gives too much space.
This is not a Tarrasch, but rather a Semi-Tarrasch. Black's optimum piece placement is a knight at f6, and a bishop at b7, which gives good control over d5 and e4.
It is Kramnik the one who used the setup with Nd7 and b6 some 12 years ago, and from then it has been played by virtually anyone with 2700+ ELO.
11...Nc6 isn't great after 12.0-0 b6 13.Rad1 Bb7 14.Rfe1 and white is ready to push d4-d5 with some pressure.
Fischer's 8...Nc6 (without a bishop swap) does not equalize due to various reasons, e.g. 9.a3!? which does not allow Black to exchange pieces, or 9.Be2, or 9.Bc4 b5 10.Be2! (Spassky played the less good 10.Bd3, but still he could get a clear advantage after the powerful 13.d5! pawn sac which he discarded).
I wonder if Arjun 14....Nf6 could be an imprecision and maybe Rc8 more solid as Night often go to c5 ...If 15.Bb3 h6 16.d5 Nc5
14...Nf6 is book, and played hundreds of times before by many top players (Arjun included).
the mistake is a5
nikolas was focussed (like plaers should be ), arjun style marne ke chakkar mein har gya.
overconfidence, that's why getting up all the time and super talent sees moves quickly, and there is the problem
Arjun is one of the Top GM’s who still play Open tournament despite the risks of losing ratings easily. Salute his guts - 👍
I think he’s playing because he didn’t get invites to closed events
@@nagarajpn9279 he's playing because it will give him a lot of FIDE circuit points if he wins
Was he India's no. 1 🙄 1400 level chess on rhe board 🙄
Please pin me ❤
😋
He does not concentrate. Keeps getting up for every move.
Sagar shah is taklu
