The 2022 FTX Crypto Cup sees Magnus Carlsen, Alireza Firouzja, Levon Aronian, Anish Giri, Jan-Krzysztof Duda, Liem Le, Hans Niemann and Praggnanandhaa gather in the Eden Roc Miami Beach Hotel in Miami, Florida for the 2nd Major on the $1.6 million Meltwater Champions Chess Tour. $210,000 and a $100,000 Bitcoin bonus is at stake in the 7-round all-play-all tournament. Each match consists of 4 rapid games on the chess24 Playzone, with the winner earning $7,500 (3 points). If the match is tied there's a blitz tiebreak, with 2 blitz games followed, if needed, by a single Armageddon game. The winner earns $5,000 (2 points) and the loser $2,500 (1).
For each rapid game the players have 15 minutes for all their moves, with a 10-second increment after each move. For blitz games it's 5 minutes and a 3-second increment, while for the Armageddon game White has 5 minutes to Black's 4, but a draw counts as a win for Black. No draw offers are allowed before move 40. Official website: chess24.com/tour

[@VickyCruz]

@@gredangeo you cannot move anything

[@rickdesper]

@@gredangeo Magnus would have free reign over 3/4 of the board. His bishop could pick off the pawn, he could advance the a pawn, the white king is still trapped on the 1st row...it's a disaster.

[@kellamyoshikage286]

Bf2+ picks up the g3 pawn and basically traps the rook, at best you get Bf2+ Kf1 Bxg3 Rh1 Ra1+ Kg2 Rxh1 Kxh1 Kxh5 and this is a really easy continuation (just capture capture capture with 2 checks) and there's basically no hope that you could possibly bait the opponent into blundering the game. Visually it also just looks awful. Rook is in jail and holding onto the bishop with 1 arm. A mile away there's an unstoppable passed pawn about to mate your king. Sure, your rook may hold the bishop up for now, but the scene itself is just ugly.

[@frankeytiansong7345]

See next video

[@DonSunsetAtDawn]

Literally the next move is a new game... Imagine living in a time where engines have proven that on a human level ingenuity does, in fact, matter, and repeating Fishers complaints without understanding them. His whole point was that opening prep showed that only a few lines were actually playable and that's been proven wrong pretty damn conclusively.

[@tatsuyasigh1906]

Even w/o engine, grouo study and game analysis would still lead to longer and longer theoretical lines and opening prep. Engine perhaps just streamlines the process. If Fisher hates opening prep then that's his problem

[@Christiaan1958]

Quite the opposite Fischer would've approved of the way Magnus played!

I could be wrong but I think Magnus often tries to kill off as many pieces as possible as quickly as possible to get to the end game where he will beat his opponent to death. But that's just my opinion.

[@DocDealgood]

In the end, last 10-15 moves it was obvious that Magnus will win. But if I have seen right, there was a opportunity for white to give up the the Bishop for two pawns. Ok, then a rook vs rook plus bishop in the end game for Magnus. At least a heroic move for white ☺️

Chess speaks for itself

[@brennan7032]

Hi everyone, at 3:10, where agad says that bxe2 wouldn't work, I see kh1, then after qxe7 white cannot take on h2 without qh4, which looks like an indefensible fork to recapture the bishop. I suppose the answer is probably that white would play g3 instead of kxh2 to block the bishop, and then down the line the bishop falls or the position is simply not worth it.

In the FTX Crypto Cup, Niemann and his opponent Jan-Krzysztof Duda encountered technological problems involving the laptop Duda was using during the first round. Niemann later won the first game with the black pieces in his second round match against reigning World Champion Magnus Carlsen. In a later interview, Niemann said "Chess speaks for itself". Niemann subsequently lost all his matches in the tournament. - I guess it would of been too obvious if the only 2 games Niemann won in the FTX Crypto Cup were against Carlsen
