The 2019 FIDE World Cup is taking place in Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia from 10 September to 4 October. The 128-player knockout tournament features most of the world's best players. The total prize fund is $1.6 million, with $110,000 for the winner and $6,000 for first round losers. The finalists will qualify for the 2020 Candidates Tournament that determines Magnus Carlsen's next World Championship challenger.
The format is six knockout rounds of 2-game classical matches before a 4-game final. The time control is 90 minutes for 40 moves, then 30 minutes for the rest of the game, with a 30-second increment from move 1. If the score is tied the players then play two 25-minute + 10-second increment rapid games, then two 10+10 games, then two 5+3 and, finally, Armageddon, where White has 5 minutes to Black's 4 but a draw qualifies Black for the next round.

Firouzja looks like an incredible strong player although he is very young. I think he will be among the Top 10 in a few years. Thanks for showing this amazing game.

[@09bidon]

The GM Laurent Fressinet agrees with you : during his commentary for the Sinquefield cup, he said that after talking with Firouzja, he had the same feeling as with Carlsen when he analyzes positions, the feeling of someone really exceptional. Fressinet is the guy "too weak, too slow" who work with Carlsen, he knows him well.

[@ElyaneTalk]

@@09bidon I know Fressinet very well. And if he says that, that means that Firouzja is really a very exceptional player.

[@Dhirallin]

Yeah although you can never tell if a prodigy is going to stall like Wei Yi or Duda. It feels like there's something a bit different with Firouzja. I would put a bet on him going to the top. Naka also said Firouzja is the toughest current junior he's played against.

But he put his name on the map,, Big Time ! He said he will be World Champion in 4 years ! And only has been making steady process since :) Agad you know too little, saying Firouzja wouldn't want to go to rapid against Dubov, since Dubov is a beast ! Firouzja is as big of a beast ! Ding Liren is probably a little too much for him now :) However it is still possible now, he is not without chances! But watch this young man in the next 2 years !

[@BluSpykz]

For those asking why, at 10:25, not Rb8 - because king e8 negates this move. White can't queen (bishop attack), can't take black rook (king retakes, and pawn still can't queen).

[@anthonymccroy3186]

6:03 why not kh6 check pick up bishop and double his pawns on the g file also weakening the king side?

[@fienddube]

11:35 what about Rd7 instead of Rb7? You block the attack on your d-pawn. If black captures the rook, then you queen with check. And if he moves his king to e8, you trade rooks and then queen with check. And finally, if he plays Ra8 to block the pawn, NOW you go Rb7, threatening Rb8+, and no matter where black puts his rook, you're going to queen. Even if he goes Re8+, you just hide the king on d3 and he's cooked. And of course, because he put his bishop on g6, it cannot help out because e4 is covered by your d-pawn.

[@trendy10s36]

Rxd7 will give black opportunity to draw or even win since the material will be close to equal (i think +1 for white) as you sacrificed a rook and pawn for a queen and you're already down a piece

10:00 Ra6 doesn't work because the move 42.Rc7! and black is in trouble. You can't move your bishop anywhere because of 8th rank problem and if you try Bc6 then you get R×c6! and you can't move your king because Rc8 wins a piece so you should move some silly moves to wait the white's king get activated and win the game!

Obviously, Ding is the favourite to win not just this match but the entire tournament. But even Alireza loses to Ding, maybe he gets to be the wild card!

FreshJoker Black doesnt have to capture. Just move the rook to e8 for example. And the king will be free to move to 7th rank then come closer to a7 pawn. And if White takes on e8 then the pawn cant be promoted since its guarded by the bishop.
