44:55 Yep. That’s what I was thinking too.

[@natebozeman4510]

As someone below 700, I can say that this was probably the easiest part of the video to calculate intuitively. I regularly see checkmate angles once my opponent plays e4.

@@Alex-Proud-American eric gets the d6 for free

[@theplayfulbot8447]

For him, a blunder it's more like he missed a good move from his opponent

[@TheEverburningFathom]

His main concern is losing the bishop pair which holds higher value than a knight and bishop to higher rated players as they know how to push that advantage when the position possibly opens up in a future endgame. exf5 loses the bishop anyways to Rxe7. And if he plays Bd8 to preserve the bishop pair, he will lose the d6 pawn. So normally in an opening, you will never want to lose your bishop without some type of compensation (initiative, better pawn structure, being up the exchange, piece activity, checkmating sequence).

Lowly 1000 player here, but it can do wonders for the confidence to see gods such as yourself, Nakamura, Botez, and Carlsen blunder things. Really enjoyed watching this. On one hand, I wish there was more explanation, but I totally understand the limitations of the format. Like, really, this as probably more than I'd get watching someone else. Thank you for showing high level play. Your calculation at 44:45 just shows how good of a player you are. God like calculation to checkmate.

On the board *Bd3+ Kg4 Ne5+ Kg3 Rh3 Kf2* "Yeah Ng4 that's what I calculated Kg1 forced and then Be4 is mate if Kg2 Be4 Rf1 (sic) Rh2 mate." "It's just mate" On board *Ng4 Kg1* "No stopping Rh1 look at this position." On Board *Be4 Black resigns* That was cool. The opponent did avoid all the mates Danya calculated (that Kg1 line was the only one he didn't calculate outloud) And even though everything was winning I love that Danya played the semi-quiet move Be4 at the end to get that precise mate. Also, I would have loved to see that Nd3# on board.
