The Julius Baer Generation Cup is the 7th of 9 events on the $1.6 million 2022 Meltwater Champions Chess Tour and takes place on chess24 from September 18-25. The 16-player field will be cut in half by the 4-day round-robin Prelims. The total prize fund is $150,000, with $750 for a win and $250 for a draw in the Prelims. The quarterfinals and semi-finals are 1-day, 4-game matches, while the final will feature two such matches over two days.
The players have 15 minutes for all their moves, plus a 10-second increment starting from move 1. In the Prelims there are 3 points for a win and 1 for a draw. If a tiebreak is required the players will play two 5+3 games and then, if needed, a single Armageddon game, where White has 5 minutes to Black's 4, but a draw counts as a win for Black. No draw offers are allowed before move 40. Official website: chess24.com/tour

7:17 "Magnus and I found the same move..... And it's a blunder" It's okay Antonio, you and Magnus are so beyond everyone else in terms of skill that like Tal, every move you make could technically be a blunder but the position is so complicated it doesn't matter and you win

[@daarom3472]

It's always hard to judge whether something is a blunder based on engine recommendations. Because it's only a blunder if your opponent plays engine moves. The algorhitm should include the complexity of the counterplay as a weight to judge whether something is a blunder.

It is written that Lasker, after his foe spent quite some time analyzing prior to making a Knight Sac, instantly played a move which did not accept the Sac. He said if my foe spent so much time analyzing it then it may well have been a good move so why should I accept it? Seems like Arjun took Magnus at his word when he played Bh4 and failed to analyze deeply when it really matter. Spassky once said that every game has a critical moment when you should think deeply. The problem being no one knows exactly which moment is the critical one.

[@marino4691]

Arjun said in the interview that he considered g5 at 8:42, but he didn't go for it. he probably didn't see the whole thing

They should do a blind tournament, where the players in the tournament aren't announced, and the players themselves don't know who they're playing against. And then, only when the tournament ends, are all the match ups revealed.

The initial queenside attack/defend when converted to the king side lost me entirely. Great game to study and learn with agadmator's commentary.

[@pattabiramans]

Magnus has made such an impact in chess world, only engines can spot an error if he deliberately chooses to make one.

12:47 For a split second I was like "BEGAHHH THE QUEEN" until I realized the pin lmao

[@salemfuad5824]

I heard good advices and nice story Today and saw amazing game.

[@Hubythereal]

while watching this video I also thought about bh4, because it feels kinda comfortable to play. then you told that you were thinking about the same move too while watching the game live. to me, it doesn't matter if it's a blunder or not, it felt great, and made my day a whole lot better. can't wait to tell this story to my friends in the bar

[@fischer9001]

it seems like Magnus had the position closed and locked down very early on. for arjun, it didn't seem like there was ever a good way to break through. magnus makes it look easy. perhaps it's his otherworldly endgame skills that put him above the rest. he simply know when to trade down and when to hold. a wise chess player once told me that once you have a good grasp of the endgame, the beginning and middlegame make much more sense and become more intuitive. I tend to avoid complex tactics myself and instead I usually go for simple trades that lead to a favorable endgame for me. it doesnt always work, but the endgame is where I'm strongest. I've ended up in many king and pawn endgame where the opponent offers a draw and I refuse because I see a long term plan where my passed pawn will promote before they will or something like that. chess is hard, but magnus makes it look easy

[@monikaherath7505]

Very good advice. I remember when I was younger, I was very good at calculation and calculating different lines, but I didn't know which of the positions that I calculated to was the best one. There's a term used for this, horizon effect or something? Except in very obvious cases like where I was up a piece, it was just so exasperating to spend so much mental energy and yet ultimately not really knowing which line or position was "better". I know chess engines do have some ways of crudely assigning values to a position, but the horizon effect was the biggest stumbling block and biggest source of frustration for me. That is, until I did what you did and started to master the endgame. It is difficult to articulate in words how greatly it transformed not only how I play chess but how I think about chess. I think everyone starts off thinking about chess "forwards", but the combinations become so overwhelming so quickly that it is not feasible. You can only really think about chess "backwards" i.e mastering the endgame and then trying to break down your midgame into an endgame that you know you can win or at least understand. Even the theory of many endgames is bewilderingly complex and for me required hours upon hours of study and so knowing a line in your midgame disintergrates into an endgame you have seen before is so gratifying and reassuring. It is like being able to know several moves in advance without having to expend mental energy calculating it. It helped me surmount the "horizon effect" that so impaired my game. Sorry if I didn't explain this very well but in short I have the exact same experience as you!

"Always keep in mind the possibilty of pawn to B4" (10.15). It seems I've heard that before somewhere ...

looks like carlsens opening was very well prepared up to the beginning endgame and everything went well for his tactics. maybe erigaisi was a bit nervous or shy too. carlsen is a running database for openings and midgame, hard to outwit that.

#suggestion Game 2 of Magnus vs Arjun

[@dsly100]

Arjun said in the post-game interview that missing 23. ...g5 was frustrating. He said he did look at the move but decided (probably because of the Magnus effect (which also affects Magnus himself occasionally where players like Niemann have forced him to make weak moves)) not to play it. I don't get why anyone would reject a freeing move like that?>?

You are right, Antonio, Arjun spoted this (g5!) but he dismissed. It is the Magnus effect, happens many times: to much respect and players underperform. Magnus himself admitted this in a recent interview, and is a known fact that Anand underperformed against Kasparov in the nineties
