Its a rare opportunity for me to share a mindset with the world champion here. I too missed both them moves, like they weren't there at all.

Ke4 would have been an EPIC opening move for Wesley 👑

This title is genious. Like - it is not about mating Wesley with good combination in the midgame - it is about sending a message - if you just sacrifice a pawn with not a good reason against me - I'll stifle down you with that pawn)

[@alexandre3989]

He played this not like a chess engine, but like a Go engine: play to maximize your chances of winning, even if by the slimmest of margins. Wesley gave him a pawn, and Magnus gave him nothing in return, not even a time advantage.

[@elyas4637]

@@alexandre3989 Magnus, with no exaggeration, is the worst guy to play a pawn down. He could literally win in an equal endgame, a pawn up is basically a wrap for him lol

[@louisastuto2878]

“Waiting for him (MC) to make a mistake.... but he didn’t” LOL. A good summation of Magnus” entire career.

[@whizkid4386]

He’s plenty of mistakes. That’s why he didn’t finish this tournament in the winner’s bracket.

[@FiikusMaximus]

He makes mistakes too, but then he keeps playing and sometimes scavenges a draw, sometimes even a win. He's incredibly persistent, collected and accurate.

[@jackruele4999]

This is basically a recap about how Wesley So lost a game in 4 moves. That pawn sacrifice was an advantage for Magnus in the endgame.

Yep...

It’s a pity the subscribers cannot find the best lines in real time for Magnus, sitting at home in the comfort of our own sofas. We are really wasted as a top grandmasterly engine of success.

[@andyelgrand0]

3:35 - Wesley blundered the pawn on the rook file.... Queen takes pawn. Then queen takes the other pawn :o ... is this a trap or did everyone just miss it?

[@lordcezar4657]

It's not a trap. It just sends black into a losing position after Bg5 attacking a knight that can only go backward; no one wants a retarded knight. If black doesn't respond to this threat then white would take that knight with very good compensation (as kingside castle is no longer safe). IF he moves his queen to defend the knight, black would capture the knight immediately. If he decides to keep his king safe by capturing with his queen, white has a strong move: Knight captures b5. Revealing and simultaneously attacking a bishop (a7) which is now pinned to the a-file rook. The rook cannot move, the bishop cannot move, it is now up to white to spare the hanging bishop - but he is ruthless. Black is miles away from castling. The queen comes back to b6, but she must know that all hope has been lost now. The evaluation bar swings upwards and says the best move for black is to castle kingside. "Castle kingside??? I want to save my bishop". The white queen watching wouldn't be left out of the drama now, would she? Queen to b1. Any knight move would mean that the two beauties would stare at each other, with one smiling mischievously. Black castles and white played the in-between move c captures d4. What looks like a useless pawn capture would mean, after the dust settles, that black has no passed pawn to use to his advantage. But black see's this instead as glimmer of hope - d6. perhaps black knows the bishop is still trapped but can't help but clutch at straws. { Qxa5 |Bg5 Qb6 | Bxf6 Qxf6 | Nxb5 Qb6 | Qb1 O-O | cxd4 d6 | Nxa7 Qxb1 | Rfxb1 }

[@lordcezar4657]

why I said its not a trap is that it's easy for a grandmaster to see the potential relative pin in a few moves. The bishop to g5 move to attack the knight meant that the three heavy pieces defend each other at the back rank.

[@FloydMaxwell]

14:25 - king could also move to c2. Seems the unstoppable problem is that white would then be down two pawns (instead of one).

[@anthonyvincel7266]

1:02 and he opens with the Accelerated Super Bongcloud

[@BoggiFroggy]

8:50 I was thinking black should play ...Rxa2. If white dares to recapture with Qxa2, black plays ...Bxd5, which forks the white Queen and white Rook. If white plays exd5 or Qxd5 to avoid losing material, black mates in five wacky moves: ...Qf4+ Kh1, Qc1+ Kh2, Bg1+ Kh1, Be3+ Kh2, Bf4#

[@luya8610]

At 7.07, I like Rxa2. It forces White to move the Queen. If White doesn't capture back, then it's a free bishop. But if White does capture back with Qxa2 then black can play Qe1. I then can't see any good move for White to prevent: (...Rxa2 Qxa2 Qe1) ?? Bg1+ Kh1 Bf2+ Kh2 Qg1#

[@42024247514]

i doupt it works since white can defend the back rank with Rb2. now bg1+ is not as nice and leaves the black queen hanging...

Yea i saw both Rxa2 and Bf2, but couldnt figure the whole line. That is a real difficulty :D

[@osgubben]

When Magnus has a won position he mostly avoids the best line, if its not totally safe. Instead he trades into the safest winning line, just to avoid some tactical blunders in time scramble.

[@louisastuto2878]

@@osgubben exactly. It’s not like he “missed” this move. If he is 100% sure he can win a simplified endgame he will choose that route rather than a more complicated tactical approach that he’s 90% sure about. He doesn’t play variations he thinks could be good, he plays the ones he knows are winning and that’s why he’s WC and the best chess player ever. Why take even a small chance to win the game in 5 moves when you are 100% sure you can win It 20?

[@magnificcenTCG]

@@osgubben I'm not sure how bishop f2 is not "totally safe", I think the simple explanation is that Magnus just missed the move. I dont know the time situation during that move.

You can’t gift a pawn like that to Magnus and expect to win. He is going to convert that advantage into a superior endgame which he duly did.
