Magnus Carlsen Checkmates Bill Gates in just 12 seconds

Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, billionaire and philantropist, faced off against the World Chess Champion - Magnus Carlsen during the talkshow “Skavlan” in 2014, recorded in a studio in London. Carlsen started with 30 seconds on his clock, and Gates with 2 minutes - by the time he’d win the game, Carlsen would only up 12 of those seconds!

[@master11050]

For those who are wondering, the "12 seconds" refer to the total time it took Magnus to make all of his own moves according to the chess clock. Gate's moves are counted separately. That's why it's "12 seconds" despite the video being over a minute.

I feel like the pressure of playing someone such top tier quality would play a huge role because watching Bill play it was like he couldn't strategize at all it was hard to watch, but not having the added pressure of being there and actually playing for real i feel like it's a lot easier for me to so easily notice how much Bill seemed to lack entirely in strategy and move choices.

[@mightymulatto3000]

The knight queen mate is something children learn early in their chess careers. That said Gates using his Bishop to defend his king's pawn allowed for Carlson to threaten a fork of his knight and Bishop. Gates probably should have moved the pawn on the king's side and then moved his Bishop to the long diagonal.

I dunno about that. He went for an uncommon defense to shake a relative novice out of their comfort zone, but each move after that looked like basically just the best move in the position. I didn't see any moves that looked like they were alternatives to what he would have played against any other player make it flashy, just very straightforward pressure on a glaring weakness Gates made on move 3 until the kingside was forced open.

[@manuv8]
