A stunning blunder | Magnus Carlsen vs 17-year-old Aditya Samant | Qatar Masters 2023

Magnus Carlsen had already played 4 Indian players out of 5 rounds at the Qatar Masters Open 2023. In the 6th round he faced another Indian youngster. The 2006 born, 17-year-old talent Aditya Samant. Aditya is India's 83rd GM and gave Magnus a really tough fight. It seemed like the game might end in a fighting draw, but then something truly unbelievable happened. Check out the game video along with the commentary by IM Sagar Shah.

Even an unrated player wd have gone for the Rook. Example of even how GM's go wrong.

[@sachinsamant8246]

Most certainly, though just as certainly (s)he wouldn't have held the resulting endgame against Magnus. Why unrated, any slightly lesser tactically alert player would've done the same. White's undoing were 1) the middlegame simplification in the center not realizing the a pawn couldn't be retained, 2) playing at a horrendous speed and 3) forgetting that discretion is the better part of valour, strictly in chronological order...

[@mitravaruna7657]

@@sachinsamant8246 Your first point about middle game is not relevant at that instant were the rook has to taken. Horrendous speed ? I think this was not a blitz game. Time pressure was there, but not beyond the situation of comprehending moves ( at GM levels) . Finally i don't understand ur third point with respect to this game.

[@sachinsamant8246]

@@mitravaruna7657 True, the first point has no relevance to the mistake, I was just summarizing his misdoings in the game. You CANNOT play at your own pace regardless of the pace at which the opponent is playing and in the case of this opponent - definitely not. As Sagar mentions, the pressure does pile up though the player may not realize. He had to make about 6-8 only moves in less than a minute each and when he finally got to where he had to just do the obvious thing, he tried to take a route which worked all, but for that Ra6-Ra5 idea. In all honesty, I feel he is strong enough to have found that idea had he not been in that pressure for the previous hour. It is here that the third point comes into play. If he was playing Bd5 thinking he had a chance to win, it would still make sense. But he had seen only a draw in that line at best, and in that situation it was completely not worth the risk when taking the rook didn't even look dangerous. Magnus, for what we've known him to be, might have still squeezed something out of it though he told Aditya it was a dead draw. The players who 'make' it grab opportunities with both hands, and more...

[@Lamcuyp572L]

Ofc he calculated more lines after taking rook than you..maybe he is not sure about draw & he is playing Magnus pressure is real💀
