Queen Sacrifice Too Scary to Keep

[@pandalover900]

For anyone wondering at 7:45 why the bishop doesnt take the pawn on f4, it leads to checkmate because rook can land on g1 followed by rook d to d1 and there are no moves to prevent mate. Black square bishop has to keep an eye on g1 othewise king only has b2 square and gets mate.

[@hp7639]

I've been beat this way so I know exactly what you mean. I thought I had an easy win and missed the pawn preventing an escape. Even if you move the A pawn you still get mated.

[@ader7836]

I was thinking the same thing and also came upon this line

[@mario97br]

​@@hp7639what if you move the c-pawn? Wouldn't the bishop still guard the C1 square?

Except when he doesn't. Antonio literally just made a video showing how Magnus missed a checkmate.

[@kenw2225]

No human always finds the move. But magnus finds it the most. More than anyone else. In very tough positions. I would find the moves he finds 10% of the time. His intuition is crazy and his memorization of patterns in positions is beyond anyone else . Honestly all the top guys are really wild to see in blitz chess

2:41 I was very sad in life: I was fat and short, I was fired from my job, my girlfriend left me, my granny died, my landlord kicked me out of my apartment.

[@FenceThis]

@@cygnustsp that must’ve been the one from 29th of November 2016 though that was rather low pitched and unenthusiastic. later he developed a never failing energetic and resounding opening that remained close to identical for several years, in a fairly high carried pitch for his natural timbre, almost like a Wagnerian heldentenor, but I guess the strain took its toll on his vocal chords after all these celebrated performances - a chapter bygone ? it ended on a high note…

[@niv6924]

Funny how Agadmator says MVL is the best Najdrof player in the world and still MVL looses like every single game he plays Najdorf 😂

[@nirmalyajana642]

[@christophermurty7239]

It’s the way Magnus referenced the Topolov game(and the year?!) in the post match interview as the reason for his decision making. The memory bank is pure genius. He’s got the talent of Fisher and the tenacity of Kasparov. MVL played awesome today in red hot form - but Magnus still found a way to win. Has to be the GOAT. Saviour it people, chess will be hollow without him and his unique ability to shock us all with ingenuity.

[@JeremyNasmith]

The commentary team mentioned that MVL had a winning response at some point, I think itwas while blacks rook was still on f1 guarded by the pawn om e2? Anyways according to David Howell MVL could have interposed the other rook to the third rank cutting the Bishop's view to the queening square allowing queening for the price of one rook, but he missed it. Dunno if that analysis was correct, but it was mentioned during the live commentary.

Rumor: As chess has been greatly reduced after the advent of chess engines to AI -generated tactics concerning the higher tablespaces involving combinations of pieces thus reducing the advantage the players may obtain and so forcing them to look for breaks from theory earlier and earlier from known lines, cheating is really rampant among top tier players. However the art of cheating and tricking evaluators to accept semigod-like moves can only be had by the wisdom of practice. And who better than those commentators which observe games and work out lines and their evaluations as the games happen. And so the GCACA (grand chess anti-cheating authority) is investigating anonymous allegations that not only Agadmator has been and is secretly working with Hans Niemann, aiding and abating him, not only that Agadmator is really a 5000 classical rated player a 7000 rapid player and 7500 blitz player while his centaur rating remains conveniently a mystery, but also that he is the creator of a rumored mythical AI-chess engine of unparalleled chess-teaching-and-coaching capability called Agadmotor.
