The Unstoppable Machine | Magnus Carlsen vs Richard Rapport | World Blitz 2023

[@dmitriydruzhinin2032]

How Magnus does that - getting a win out of a dead-equal midgame position - is a pure miracle. He sits in ambush waiting for his opponent to make a sub-perfect move, and then he attacks, just at the right moment. And when he attacks, there is no stopping him...

[@fairtrue4557]

he is more combative and simply has a better physical condition

[@StevenEvans-ur1mo]

It didn’t feel like “waiting” in this game though, every move after the opening he was putting continuous pressure

[@klimtkiller]

I wouldn't say it was dead equal

[@Dakiller1243]

its a blitz game. once it goes down to 10 secs its an open game

[@dmed312]

Not equal. Lots of tension in the position, especially the pinned knight throughout the game.

One mindless pawn push and the game was gone Qc5! was a nice move ☺️ Magnus spots the right exchanges in a flash No one comes even close to him in that aspect

[@iCrestfalleN]

would you like to explain to me as a beginner, why Qc5 is a good move? did he try to sac his knight?

[@PedroCerqu]

@@iCrestfalleN It's a complicated series of plays... the a4 pawn is now attacked by both Queen and Bishop, so if Carlsen takes with Bishop Rapport cannot retake with Ra4 as it will be hanging, and if Carlsen does take with Ba4 both of Rapport's knights will be under attack by Carlsen's Bishops, with possible check on White King which is why I assume Rapport played Kh8 (which probably wasn't needed but it happens under time constraints). Basically because the pawn was hanging Rapport was forced to go for damage control giving Carlsen the initiative.

[@brandonlawrence5851]

@@PedroCerqu I think he saw that it double attacked the pawn, but didnt understand why the knight on f5 was left unguarded. It's because if 1 ... Qxf5 2 Qxb6, and the queen cant be taken since the knight is pinned on d5. So its a knight trade, but white ends up with a tempo on black's b pawn and forces black to waste another tempo defending it. Actually I think Carlsen actually calculated even farther, to 2 ... Qd7 3 Bxd5 cxd5 (basically forced, the queen can't take and unguard the b pawn) 4 Bxa5, which wins the a-pawn anyway. Guy is good at chess.

[@andreidinu7316]

​@@ericastier1646 that's the thing, I really don't see it. The rook protects the back rank, and the other knight protects this one, so there's no way for the queen to get in.

​​@@ericastier1646 that makes sense. It leaves the pawn on b7 unprotected, so the queen has to go back, you lose a tempo and immobilize the queen for a few moves, until you can reroute the bishop. It's messy and takes away your attack, which you don't want to do in blitz.
