GM Alexander Morozevich - GM Alexander Motylev, Ruy Lopez, Blitz
Blitz chess (also known as speed or fast chess) is a type of chess in which each player is given less time to consider their moves than normal tournament time controls allow. Openings, tactics and strategy are same.
The Ruy Lopez is the cornerstone of classical play in chess. There are probably more variations for the Ruy Lopez than any other opening. With the common use of the double king’s pawn opening (1.e4 e5), the Ruy Lopez is one of the most played openings that any chess player will come across. It’s almost imperative that any chess player study some of the more popular defenses against the Ruy Lopez and understand some of the key concepts of the opening.
From the beginning, white looks to develop his bishop while pinning down black’s knight to the king. Although many openings focus on the f7 square early on, the Ruy Lopez is a slower and more methodical approach to attacking black’s king.
Always be aware of what your opponent is trying to do when playing the Ruy Lopez, as many players have a very specific defense designed for playing against the Ruy Lopez.
The Ruy Lopez is sometimes considered a slow and boring opening but the better player should usually come out with the win. There are not as many tricks or surprises in the Ruy Lopez and is recommended against any opponent that you know you have a distinct advantage in skill level.

For some reason games are only broadcasted with chess 24 which has their own notation with seconds and evaluation, so in order to bring it to readable mode it takes huge effort.

[@PiercingSight]

@George Grasser - Game can be found here: chess24.com/en/watch/live-tournaments/european-blitz-championship-2019/9/1/2 For some reason, Chess24 require premium to download the PGN, but you can just copy the game moves from the page if you want. It may even be possible to write a script that just rips the PGN from the page.

[@PiercingSight]

Here's a copy and edited PGN, btw. This could certainly be done by a script of some kind. And it would be able to grab the game info as well. 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4.

Very very nice come.back from black!!

So nice to find a Moro victory video that isn't ten years old :).

[@Detherocable]

Impeccable technique, GM Morozevich! Bravo!

[@chessbrilliance8783]

That was far from impecable. At 8:33 Kf5?? And the h7 pawn drops wich Motilev overlooked.

[@SaeedAcronia]

I love Morozevich. Such a classy player.

[@presingizdavastvo4403]

For everyone who are shy from endgames and think all Queen's endgames are draw, it's a good lesson.

[@dylandog7236]

Naravno da je svaka dama/dama završnica remi. Jedino previd može sprečiti takav rezultat. Ovde imamo izlazećeg piuna kojeg bi čak i 1700-1800 igrač pretvorio u damu bez većih poteškoća.

[@user-of6sj7qf7s]

Who the hell thinks queens endgames are a draw? They have a higher tendency to be winning then rook endgames, especially if one side is a clear pawn down like here. I've always seen strong players choose to trade into a queens endgame instead of rooks/even pawns, cause it's easier to win

[@aniharutyunyan2211]

Morozevich is my favourite current player, and my second favourite of all time. I don't know why he's more popular, he's basically beaten everybody!

Which processor Moro has?

[@pckho92]

Wow as always... When clock around 30secs, gm morosevich move very fast

[@slime_entertainment_inc.]

10:17 what does Moro say?

[@harze8211]

Dont touch Queen

[@timbaldwin9951]

Oh, that is too funny.

[@sakurachan9651]

I think *maybe* he said touch move and quite surprised that his opponent moves another piece

[@timbaldwin9951]

'Don't touch queen' makes perfect sense. It's a win for Moro at this point and Moro 'helps' his opponent play the endgame accurately.

[@bla4979]

El Grande Moro does it again!

[@Realman3000]

Min 11.45 Qh4+ then Qg5+ and exchange the Queens.

[@sumant5588]

He missed it I guess, happens in Blitz.

Morozevich Best ajedrez

[@lucamarini1967]

dramatic game

[@rbt7444]

Aren't the tables too short

[@presingizdavastvo4403]

Probably. But the chairs are comfortable and there is enough place between chairs, which is most important. And, finally, such tables discourage players who has nasty custom to jerk and shake the table during the game.

[@doctorheart]

a machine, playing like a human....

Gm got warts from diving deep into Queens gambit.

[@rudolfhitler5165]

Moro is not GM, he is GOD of chess, Best of all!!

[@chessbrilliance8783]

8:33 Kf5?? Was well met by Rxh7 or even Kxh7. 13:08 Bc2?? Allow Kf6! 8:59 Nxa5?? WTF ?? 9:09 Bd3?? Rc5 !! was saving the game with idea Rc3 and Rxb3 9:15 Be2?? Again Rc5! draw! Be4 or even g6 and it was back to winning 9:18 Bf1?? Again Rc5 draw. Even h8 Q is winnin instead.

Aerial view of the board is much better than this side view. This wasn't easy to watch at all.

[@Rapidchess]

It's not that bad, good to have some alternative for video as some people argue this camera placement is better, which I don't agree, but that's what they say. In this particular case there was no other room for tripod, so this is kind of only way to capture games without much of interference. And tournament crew id their best assisting me, kudos to them.
