"It's Insane!" Magnus Carlsen INVENTS A New Chess Opening! || The "Bongcloud Gambit!"

[@OwenBanks-zl8yt]

How can you mention the "Bong-cloud" opening without mentioning Bobby Fischer (?) who invented it for online blitz games to take his opponents out of their books or computers..? Oh well, tempus fugits...

[@Manish3177]

Ok, it is expected that you’ll have an anxiety attack when you see Magnus completely going off script but even then that E5 move made absolutely no sense. Game was over right there … if Magnus didn’t make blunders due to time pressure.

This game with the Bongcloud gambit and Chigaevs countergambit can’t be taken seriously.

How does this openning work against Stockfish?

Bond cloud means hold my beer in chess

Nice video

[@donmacquarrie9161]

insane game!

[@neilvsalmon6105]

A joke opening which will never be played as anything serious for actual good opening theory .

[@eddyg1794]

in blitz you can get away with this due to surprise value and....er well blitz lack of time to come up with the best refutation.

This guy is a horror player.
