@@eswing2153 lmao people think Carlsen is the only human in the whole world capable of finding brilliant moves in 2 seconds. The guy is a GM too. His name is Esipenko
Lots of people confused about the resign in the comments; If Pawn takes Rook, Queen d7 checkmate. If Queen takes Queen, Rook e8 checkmate. If Rook takes Rook, Queen f8 check, only defense is Rook e8, Queen takes Rook checkmate. Anything else? White brings up the other Rook to e1, Black can't do anything. It's a mate in 4 at most.
If you mean this move before the double up, rook takes queen, simply. If king takes, rook E1 is mate. If rook takes, your fucking king can't move and after queen f6, pinning your rook, white will play rook E1 next
@@Kitajima2 yes i agree but i would say that japan has more of the extreme of efficency. Like we both place high value of not using more than you need, but as you see the infrastructure in lets say Norway that is maybe one of the best in the entire world, but we hardly do anything just for using less. And Japan truly does its best on efficency but it has its extremes as for very working hours, as well, also job oppurtunity AS well, only in Japan can everyone work 10-12 hours a day and have more Jobs available or work overtime. In eccence it is best to have both asspects of this that efficency of japan, that creates Jobs, and the well pay in our country, and the different goverment departments that keeps every service at a standard.
He can’t eat the rook because queen can check mate next to bishop (if he eats rook with pawn), or white queen will take black queen (if he eats white rook with black rook) for the checkmate. If black queen eats white queen, then white rook eats black rook for check mate. It’s freakin beautiful
For anyone who did not understand the resignation, here is the explanation. Despite anything that Magnus does, he still finds himself facing a forced checkmate sequence. At 3:23 , if he plays Qe7 putting his Queen in front of the white Rook, which allows him to delay checkmate the longest by sacrificing his Queen (longest sequence of checkmate in three moves including Qe7), White Rook captures the black Queen with Rxe7. Black King has no escape square to go to, so he has to either play Rxe7 capturing the white Rook with his Rook, giving up the critical defensive position at e8, in which case White puts the black King in check by playing Qf8+, forcing him to defend with the only move that he has, bringing his Rook back to e8 and White wins by capturing the black Rook with Qxe8#. Or if the black Rook does not give up e8 and black King claims the white Rook with Kxe7 instead, White activates the other Rook to put the black King in check with Re1+, leaving the black King with only one safe square to retreat to: back to the d8 square. White will then checkmate Black with Rxe8#. At the point when Magnus resigns, he had 4 options of countering the attack worth considering but all were ultimately worthless. Other than Qe7, two other moves result in forced checkmate in one move. Black Queen cannot capture the white Queen as Qxg7 from black results in Rxe8# after white Rook captures the black Rook. Black pawn at f7 cannot capture the white Rook as it is also blocking white Queen from gaining access to important d7 square, so black fxe6 results in Qd7#. The last option which leads to checkmate in two moves is if black Rook chooses to capture white Rook. Somewhat similar to how the first option of Qe7 ended in checkmate. Black Rxe6 is followed by Qxf8+ from White. And checkmate follows with Black Re8 and White Qxe8#.
I saw the last move ok, but had to take my time to calculate all 3 possible variations like 30 sec. He insta saw all of them, like 1 sec max. God damn.
I think he already have a few positions in mind, e.q, he knew he couldn't move the pawn, or else is mate in front of the king, he knew the queen was guarding the rook, etc.
To my mind this totally adds to the class of Carlsen. Impossible expectation that he would win every game, but when he loses, he has learnt to lose with class. Russian school of chess will always be strong.
He didn't always lose with class 😂😂 but yeah like any good chess player he has the proper respect for his opponent to recognize when he's beat and to admire good play from others.
@@DanielH212MC Exactly right, it was why I used the verb, learnt. The true knight persona in him does not come naturally, it has been cultivated. To his credit, he has embraced that cultivation.
not exactly... he's throwing tantrums in tournaments. he's more reserved in online chess, just because results don't really matter much there, it's playing for fun.
For everyone that doesn't understand the ending: 1) If Black plays fxe6, Qd7# 2) If Black plays Rxe6, Qxf8+, Re8, Qxe8# 3) Best possible line: If Black plays Qe7, Rxe7, Rxe7, Qg8+, Re8, Qxe8#
the best possible for black is taking tha rook with the king after Qe7, Rxe7, Kxe7, but they lose anyway (at the end of comdination Rook stays vs Q+R for white). So, probably th very best idea is to resign and do not waste players' time:)
@@Yfrboy I suppose after Rf8 white would probably double up the rooks on E-file. Actually. black has no good moves to make with their pieces (except pawns): with R on f8 you can't move your Q (otherwise you lose rook and the game), you can't move your bishop (you'll lose the Q). After white plays, for example, Re3, looks funny to make a move with f-pawn, forcing queens trade, but at the end you still will lose your bishop at least (after Re3, f6, Qxe7+, Kxe7 and then Rae1 doubling the rooks, black has no opportunaty to protect bishop once moere *OR* after after Re3, *f5*, Qxe7+, Kxe7, Rae1, Rf6 - then comes Bd5 as black bishop is pinned)/ that's just one line, and I'm not a strong player, so I might miss smth interesting after Rf8 (there should be reason why Magnus has declined this option and move)....or maybe he just wanted to unpin his Queen and missed this little tricky move, who knows:) everything's possible when you are running out of time

Ppl love making videos like "Magnus Carlsen was defeated by a Brazilian GM", "MC gets defeated by a 18 years old", "MC was defeated by a redhead/blonde/albino girl", "dwarf defeats MC"... When you see the games all o' them have something in common, a really high rate over 2300!
If you’re wondering why he resigned: If Magnus took the rook with his pawn, the opponent would have moved his Queen to the d7 square, giving checkmate. If he took with the rook, the opponent would move his Queen to the f8 square, capturing his Queen, and serving checkmate. If he tried to take the opponent’s Queen instead, the opponent would move his rook to e8 for checkmate. Practically anything Carlsen can do will lead to bad outcomes. This is why he resigned
I had to pause the video study the board for a good 2 minutes to realize why he resigned. My goodness, the speed at which they calculate all possibilities is insane!
Magnus put his black knight on h5. Then he pre-made his move with the pawn to h5 in case his opponent was gonna take Magnus' knight with their knight. So that's what happened; the opponent took the knight and Magnus had already decided that if his opponent was to play knight takes knight h5, he'd take it with the pawn immediately. Hope this cleared things up!
This is what I learned... How to Beat Magnus 1) he shouldn't care 2) bore him with lines 3) tire his brain by playing all day 4) distract him with chat
2:54 Would have liked to see what would happen if kn f6 takes the rook and then the kn that would have taken the queen (so 8:10, but), immediately attacking the bishop
I love watching Magnus. He always looks so bored when when plays. He’s “do do tah do, ok, we’ll this, oh that’s a good one, I’ll do this, do, do tah do” and then if by chance he blunders he’s like “oh man I didn’t see that one…(and the ONE is actually like 10 moves ahead) I’ll just keep going though, let me try this, how bout this, oh nice trick, I resign.”
I think everyone watching this knows how to play chess or even the basic. Before asking any questions about why he resigned. Take a moment and look at the board to see why. Instead of asking people try to exercise your brain first, observe and think. Magnus saw it immediately. I saw it after he said he resign.
Holy shit, you know what if you really can see rxe6 in that position in 3 seconds then you deserve to win the chess game. For those of you that haven’t realized why that move is resign worthy, its actually forced mate. I haven’t calculated every variation as I just saw the move, but white has so many different ways to mate black that it definitely isn’t possible to stop all of them.
All black pieces were completely tied down, the king stuck in the center, white's pieces super active, it's just ultra natural to look for a sacrifice. There are like 3 super short variations to calculate, it's virtually nothing. My point is that in such a position the sacrifice is easy to find because you should be looking for one. Still, it was beautiful geometry.
ApiolJoe yes I’m fully aware of why he would think of the move, but, considering how many variations need to be calculated to make sure that it works, it’s impressive that someone would see that in 3 seconds. I mean Magnus himself clearly didn’t see that move prior to his opponent playing it. It’s not the fact that he saw it that’s impressive; it’s the fact that he saw it so quickly.
I like how annoyed and bored he was with the very first 2 or 3 moves than immediately gets interested. I dont know shit about chess but you people here are geniuses.
hes human after all , i know his speed is insane and all but sometime you miss a tiny detail that make you go like "oh ... really ... well , i guess i lost"
@@kannonfps True, everyone make mistakes. But considering I'm only 1600 on Lichess and his Elo is almost 3000 with FIDE, I imagined that he would see moves like that immediately. I mean, I suck at tactics, and it took me ten seconds? But absolutely, he was playing casually, and even still everyone makes mistakes. If I'd been playing him, he'd have mated me long before we got to that move number LOL.

Any move but Ne2 loses a piece. Carlsen played the best moves, but after Rfe1 Black's king is in all kinds of pins with no escape in the middle of the board, black's queen and rook on c are useless while white's pieces are in very advanced positions especially the knight and queen. White is obviously a very good player (in fact if it's really Esipenko then he's a 2600+ rated GM) so he should be able to close out this game.
To add on to what the other person said, a simple idea is after Ne2 which Carlson played, the only way to protect your rook is to move it to f8. The king now cannot move anywhere (one example is if you move Ke7 white gets a free bishop as your pawn is pinned, or if you take back with your king now Re1 pins your knight) Basically, it’s extremely lethal because to save your rook your king is now stuck on the e file, and the pieces between whites rook (after white plays Re1) and your pieces will be quickly overloaded. Sometimes simple heuristics are a good way to assess a position. Recognizing its now difficult if not impossible to both castle and save your pieces because your king is stuffed into e8. This speculation is unrelated to the rest of my comment but I wonder if Carlson would have been better off giving up his knight and saving his rook to get back some time. Either way, lost.
i think hes still holding the N1 position on the leaderboard no ? so yeah we can say hes the goat , at 14yo he did played against kasparov and he happend to draw with him not everybody is capable of doing that
It took me me atleast 30 seconds, maybe even as much as 60, to work out why that's game over and I'm a 2200 rated player. He saw it immediately... that tells me all I need to know about the skill he has at this game!
Can you tell me if he just moves a random mate, how is it checkmate? I know he will eventually be down a piece, but he has drawn from worse positions , hasn't he ?
@@afterthought054 it's not mate the next move but this is known as zugzwang (sp?) Meaning there isn't a move that won't lead to a loss. If you're Magnus (black pieces) and ignore the threat and do something like pawn to A5 or pawn to B4, then white is going rook takes E8 check forcing black to sacrifice the queen for a bishop. Yes, Magnus can usually handle a queen sacrifice. However, in this position it would leave him just a rook to defend against rook and queen. Making matters worse, that rook is in the worst possible square to defend the king. In fact, IMO it's hurting the king by blocking a possible escape route. It's just a really bad piece no matter how you look at it. So you can't ignore the threat, maybe meet the threat head on sort of speak? You could, but this actually leads to mate even faster. If black takes whites queen then rook takes rook e8 checkmate. Or, if black takes white rook on e6 with f x e6 (pawn capture) then whites goes queen d7 checkmate. Or, takes same e6 rook but with e8 rook instead of pawn (rE x e6 I believe is the annotation) then white takes queen on f8 and checkmate.... Long story short ignoring it is actually your best option as it prolongs Checkmate as long as possible. Trying to fight into it ends the game that much faster. There's simply no way of defending this position
@@KrimNL10DenZ Oh! Thanks for such a detailed analysis. You're obviously an advanced player who sees endgames like Magnus does (just not as fast tho I'd imagine 😜) , so this would occur to you but us mere mortals cannot see the board that many moves ahead or calculate all the possible contingencies to conclude that eventually every move is a losing one , just a matter of how fast. Magnus probably saw the same thing and resigned instantly
@@galihriskipratama3631 I hate people like you, you simply call others dumb for no reason. I am just stating something funny that happened in this video, so what's your problem?
Definitely an engine. If it was only one move, i could believe it but he saw everything and really fast. Even if he was a gm i would be sceptical. We cannot prove it but my money is on that he uses an engine.
It's forced mate but the other two outcomes preventing the rook mate are rook takes rook, then queen takes queen, checkmate. Or, pawn takes rook, Qd7 is mate. Very beautiful move.
It's really hard to believe he is not using engine or not taking a support from anyone. Because it is almost impossible to play against WCC without fear if u are not drunk.

Ppl love making videos like "Magnus Carlsen was defeated by a Brazilian GM", "MC gets defeated by a 18 years old", "MC was defeated by a redhead/blonde/albino girl", "dwarf defeats MC"... When you see the games all o' them have something in common, a really high rate over 2300!
and when magnus loses, he loses in beautiful and brutal way
Some of his opponents are cheating. Try that shit over the board with Magnus
@Rabbit Snare I can't even crack 800 lol. I suck
@Rabbit Snare 🤣🤣🤣 we share the same pain
Captain obvious moment. A low-rated player will never get a winning position against Magnus.
Guys, subtitles at 1:12 😅
If you’re wondering why he resigned: If Magnus took the rook with his pawn, the opponent would have moved his Queen to the d7 square, giving checkmate. If he took with the rook, the opponent would move his Queen to the f8 square, capturing his Queen, and serving checkmate. If he tried to take the opponent’s Queen instead, the opponent would move his rook to e8 for checkmate. Practically anything Carlsen can do will lead to bad outcomes. This is why he resigned
Wow it was kinda difficult to see, but when the other guy did the move I realized how powerful the move was... Bravo.
And the same 18yo guy today beat him in classical time format at Tata Steel Masters
3:23 LMAO
Took me like 5 whole minutes of evaluating the board to realize that it actually was a good trick lol
What took you so long
Slimjim L i don’t play chess at all lol
I had to pause the video study the board for a good 2 minutes to realize why he resigned. My goodness, the speed at which they calculate all possibilities is insane!
Ur just stupid..i could calculate instantly
@@hesback3150 u most be very smart wow incredible amazing wow
@@ert564 I'm just 1500 player.. But that didn't take 2 mins of study really. 🙄
Damn, that's beautiful.
2:53 I don’t understand. The knight vanished in thin air.
Magnus put his black knight on h5. Then he pre-made his move with the pawn to h5 in case his opponent was gonna take Magnus' knight with their knight. So that's what happened; the opponent took the knight and Magnus had already decided that if his opponent was to play knight takes knight h5, he'd take it with the pawn immediately. Hope this cleared things up!
@@boghund it did ! Thanks!
I think Tal left his grave to play carlsen!
Carlson just played this game badly.
You should see his game against Supi then
This is what I learned...
How to Beat Magnus
1) he shouldn't care
2) bore him with lines
3) tire his brain by playing all day
4) distract him with chat
A 2 days ago he won the same match in competition ! Congrats
Absolutely love his reaction, I gotta watch it every now and then
Who's here after Tata Steel.
Imagine his joy :)
imagine it now!
whos here after Esipenko defeated carlsen in Tata Steel 2021?
2:54
Would have liked to see what would happen if kn f6 takes the rook and then the kn that would have taken the queen (so 8:10, but), immediately attacking the bishop
I love watching Magnus. He always looks so bored when when plays. He’s “do do tah do, ok, we’ll this, oh that’s a good one, I’ll do this, do, do tah do” and then if by chance he blunders he’s like “oh man I didn’t see that one…(and the ONE is actually like 10 moves ahead) I’ll just keep going though, let me try this, how bout this, oh nice trick, I resign.”

I think everyone watching this knows how to play chess or even the basic. Before asking any questions about why he resigned. Take a moment and look at the board to see why. Instead of asking people try to exercise your brain first, observe and think.
Magnus saw it immediately. I saw it after he said he resign.
i hope that guy wasn’t using an engine bc he played super well and i’m about to check the game on my own.
What’d you find
@reggae9 This is Esipenko. You're thinking of that game where Supi found a brilliant queen sac and Carlsen went "Wow.. wow... that is awesome".
18 year old opponent was GM Andrey Esipenko of Russia rated 2682
that 18 year old is a GM with 2600 rating
Who is he?
@@evyuser Esipenko
Andrey Esipenko.. saw it through the comments
Esipenko tuning up for Tata steel 2021.
Watching this after magnus lost to andre again hits differently
Where can I find his streams?
It's the third time I come back to this video, and just now I understood why it's a nice trick. That's a nice trick.
Holy shit, you know what if you really can see rxe6 in that position in 3 seconds then you deserve to win the chess game. For those of you that haven’t realized why that move is resign worthy, its actually forced mate. I haven’t calculated every variation as I just saw the move, but white has so many different ways to mate black that it definitely isn’t possible to stop all of them.
All black pieces were completely tied down, the king stuck in the center, white's pieces super active, it's just ultra natural to look for a sacrifice. There are like 3 super short variations to calculate, it's virtually nothing.
My point is that in such a position the sacrifice is easy to find because you should be looking for one. Still, it was beautiful geometry.
ApiolJoe yes I’m fully aware of why he would think of the move, but, considering how many variations need to be calculated to make sure that it works, it’s impressive that someone would see that in 3 seconds. I mean Magnus himself clearly didn’t see that move prior to his opponent playing it. It’s not the fact that he saw it that’s impressive; it’s the fact that he saw it so quickly.
2:01
Excellent quote
This is not a random 18 years old guy. He is already a 2682 fide rated GM! ahahah
I like how annoyed and bored he was with the very first 2 or 3 moves than immediately gets interested. I dont know shit about chess but you people here are geniuses.
It was also Esipenko :)
Just to clarify Magnus is not 1800 and Andrey Esipenko is not 1983, they are both GMs
THIS WAS A FORESHADOWING. NOW 'AN 18 YEAR OLD GUY' ESIPENKO HAS BEATEN HIM OVER THE BOARD IN CLASSICAL :o
3:24 When it's a silent one
Sheesh brutal move, played instantly too
Magnus understood he lost in a sec, while I'm searching all possibilities 2 days now and then I came to comments to find out what happend
Caruana should ask that kid for some coaching.
Carlsen after that last move : I declare you the strongest !
I reckon Magnus clicked on REMATCH. Where's the second game?
There's always a bit more fuss when Magnus lose. So you won't find the second game anywhere on RUclips.
Magnus was 17-1 against this guy in total. That game was the only one he lost. Andrey is top 50 though not some random 18 year old.
It took me at least 5 seconds and one rewind but i had the exact same reaction. Daaaaaamn that move.
why does he always look like he is pissed off
He's Norwegian that's how they always look unless they're drunk

I thought the botez gambit declined thing was the most unfunny and overused chess joke, but wow. I'm wrong.
Aaand history repeats itself ;)) . GG ESIPENKO
Now he lost to him in Classical as well
For all those wondering why the last move is devestating it's bcoz if rook captures rook, white has bishop d7 which forks his 2 rooks with no escape
I'm assuming this is a troll, because that would be a terrible move for white. He resigned because its forced mate, 3 different ways.
@@HaiDewKen if pawn takes rook at last move then queen takes queen and then carlsen wouldhv 2 rooks and opponent with bishop and rook
@@ashwing2713 Hi Ashwin, no if pawn takes rook it is mate in one, Queen goes directly infront of King for mate, supported by Bishop.
It was indeed a nice move, but I'm pretty surprised that Magnus didn't see it. I guess he really was playing casually.
hes human after all , i know his speed is insane and all but sometime you miss a tiny detail that make you go like "oh ... really ... well , i guess i lost"
@@kannonfps True, everyone make mistakes. But considering I'm only 1600 on Lichess and his Elo is almost 3000 with FIDE, I imagined that he would see moves like that immediately. I mean, I suck at tactics, and it took me ten seconds?
But absolutely, he was playing casually, and even still everyone makes mistakes. If I'd been playing him, he'd have mated me long before we got to that move number LOL.
thank you MenuGarden very cool

I don’t blame him. Chess24’s interface and lag is awful.
He has a contract with chess24 to not promote other sites on his stream. So he is promoting chess24 by covering everything that says chessdotcom. Kind of weird but gives him the chance to play there. He wanted to reach #1 on chessdotcom in a speed run to then delete his acc
Carlson shaking his hand while I be shaking my head in confusion
1:45
It looks like Carlsen was contemplating his position already here saying he's lost.
I just don't see how's he lost ?!
Any move but Ne2 loses a piece. Carlsen played the best moves, but after Rfe1 Black's king is in all kinds of pins with no escape in the middle of the board, black's queen and rook on c are useless while white's pieces are in very advanced positions especially the knight and queen. White is obviously a very good player (in fact if it's really Esipenko then he's a 2600+ rated GM) so he should be able to close out this game.
To add on to what the other person said, a simple idea is after Ne2 which Carlson played, the only way to protect your rook is to move it to f8. The king now cannot move anywhere (one example is if you move Ke7 white gets a free bishop as your pawn is pinned, or if you take back with your king now Re1 pins your knight)
Basically, it’s extremely lethal because to save your rook your king is now stuck on the e file, and the pieces between whites rook (after white plays Re1) and your pieces will be quickly overloaded.
Sometimes simple heuristics are a good way to assess a position. Recognizing its now difficult if not impossible to both castle and save your pieces because your king is stuffed into e8.
This speculation is unrelated to the rest of my comment but I wonder if Carlson would have been better off giving up his knight and saving his rook to get back some time. Either way, lost.
Black's king is stuck in the middle, White's Queen is very active and if White likes he can win the black knight
Yoo Esipenko just defeated Magnus in a classical game of chess at the Tata Steel tournament

i think hes still holding the N1 position on the leaderboard no ? so yeah we can say hes the goat , at 14yo he did played against kasparov and he happend to draw with him not everybody is capable of doing that
Now Esipenko beat him in his first official tournament game vs Magnus Carlsen too...
It took me me atleast 30 seconds, maybe even as much as 60, to work out why that's game over and I'm a 2200 rated player. He saw it immediately... that tells me all I need to know about the skill he has at this game!
Can you tell me if he just moves a random mate, how is it checkmate?
I know he will eventually be down a piece, but he has drawn from worse positions , hasn't he ?
@@afterthought054 it's not mate the next move but this is known as zugzwang (sp?) Meaning there isn't a move that won't lead to a loss. If you're Magnus (black pieces) and ignore the threat and do something like pawn to A5 or pawn to B4, then white is going rook takes E8 check forcing black to sacrifice the queen for a bishop.
Yes, Magnus can usually handle a queen sacrifice. However, in this position it would leave him just a rook to defend against rook and queen. Making matters worse, that rook is in the worst possible square to defend the king. In fact, IMO it's hurting the king by blocking a possible escape route. It's just a really bad piece no matter how you look at it.
So you can't ignore the threat, maybe meet the threat head on sort of speak? You could, but this actually leads to mate even faster. If black takes whites queen then rook takes rook e8 checkmate. Or, if black takes white rook on e6 with f x e6 (pawn capture) then whites goes queen d7 checkmate. Or, takes same e6 rook but with e8 rook instead of pawn (rE x e6 I believe is the annotation) then white takes queen on f8 and checkmate....
Long story short ignoring it is actually your best option as it prolongs Checkmate as long as possible. Trying to fight into it ends the game that much faster. There's simply no way of defending this position
@@KrimNL10DenZ at 3:23 when he resigns? It's just a simple rook move in for a checkmate
@@afterthought054 If he ignores it White goes Rae1 and the threat on e8 is now unstoppable.
@@KrimNL10DenZ Oh! Thanks for such a detailed analysis. You're obviously an advanced player who sees endgames like Magnus does (just not as fast tho I'd imagine 😜) , so this would occur to you but us mere mortals cannot see the board that many moves ahead or calculate all the possible contingencies to conclude that eventually every move is a losing one , just a matter of how fast. Magnus probably saw the same thing and resigned instantly
I love how Magnus' reaction to opponent's good moves is the same way an average person reacts if they get their hands burnt.
if it wasn't Magnus playing:
Hikaru: I will commit seppuku.
GARY: *Russian mode:ON*
What took the knight off the board at the 3:02 mark? Is there even an exchange??
Exactly!!
White knight took it and then he took white knight with his pawn. He made a premove before the opponent went so it happened instantly
Once again beaten by the same 18year old
That was smooth and great to watch 🙏🏼

Guys, if you don't get why he resigned: the next move Esipenko takes the rook, and it's checkmate.
It's forced mate but the other two outcomes preventing the rook mate are rook takes rook, then queen takes queen, checkmate. Or, pawn takes rook, Qd7 is mate. Very beautiful move.
It's really hard to believe he is not using engine or not taking a support from anyone. Because it is almost impossible to play against WCC without fear if u are not drunk.
