Magnus plays the ugly Hippo and gets into BIG trouble | Tomashevsky vs Carlsen

In order to win with black against a strong and solid opponent like Tomashevsky, you have to try something offbeat. But going for the Hippo was going a little too offbeat! Magnus Carlsen played the hippo setup which is characterized by "a6 b6 c7 d6 e6 f7 g6 h6" setup. And guess what, he got into major trouble. What happened next? Did Magnus come out of the ugly situation alive or did he lose the game? Check out the video from the 3rd round of World Rapid 2022.

Magnus is not only brilliant chesswise but also an entertainer who fearlessly plays all kinds of openings

[@bowlingmaster168]

wow, you can't really see that chess is simple that's why you still weak

[@cherrybam862]

At first, I thought the title was about the opponent. Silly me🙂

[@AnandSivaram22]

How dare you call Tomashevsky an ugly hippo? Okay just kidding bye bye

[@laniakealocal1934]

🤣

[@stagna1959]

Wasnt much of a trouble. he converted it quite nicely when he blocked white passers. Rook is a mighty weapon in endgames and that white knight seemed quite useless

[@NawfalHasan]

That really bro? expression from Tom when he saw Magnus really going for the hippo: 1:45 😀

[@p.jhodeflea789]

You decide what or who is ugly? Instead you should congragulate Magnus for his originality and courage to play uncommon openings

[@ezequielsilva6652]

Viejos oponentes… Siempre han ofrecido lindas partidas.

[@vixr9557]

amazing how Carslen knowing how good of theoretical Tomashevsky is choose the hippo opening to get out of theory

[@Ragehunter]

7:26 thunders Of chairs 😂

[@peterjames232]

That fat GM get mated and then fall from chair again 😂

[@Ragehunter]

@@peterjames232 great spot 😅😂

[@nothinglike1586]

8:46 after Rg8-g6! is the "oh no!" moment Tomashevsky realizes he is not easily winning.

[@armwrestlingfan6804]

I like how his face was like "you really gonna go full hippo on me now?"

[@renesoftware1622]

Plz put a mini chess board so we can see clearly what happens

[@Furansowakun]

I feel no need, the angle was perfect and can see well chessboard

[@ronnyshipley3913]

Just use zoom

[@geert574]

Magnus is asking unofficially to make Fischerandom the standard chess

[@sneeze96]

Tomashevsky didnt look nervous enough playing magnus... suspicious...

[@silentjoker5950]

Bro take time edit then post with mini board cause it is difficult to understand

[@mr.invisible7971]

Kya hai ye Magnus.. bawaal hai.. bawaal.. 🔥🔥🔥

[@akashkarmakar2952]

Loved it❤

[@Grandcapi]

Who said that the Hippo is bad?

[@jennyohara4011]

[@vixr9557]

[@РусланКвач-ш7е]

Хотя была сто процентная ничья

[@vityachess]

Something out of nothing...🤷‍♂️
