Looked like it was a mating net with the rooks and the Knight Magnus missed a defensive move with his own rook which he could’ve used to offer a trade of Rooks instead he moved the Rook to h1 Maxine had too great a position with the 2 rooks forming a battery and the knight Checkmate was inevitable

[@marthadunkley6758]

Yes would have liked to see the analysis at the end. I could not work out the crushing response to N-e2 to stop the mate on g3 instead of R-h1

[@johnduncan5117]

The english expression giving someone 'a cold bath' means taking someone's ego down a level. Which is exactly what chess does, it humbles us with its insane complexity- which arises from apparent symmetry and simplicity.

[@DRealtor88]

A cold bath is purported to stimulate white blood cell movement throughout the body, supposedly improving immune function and imparting some sense of refreshment or invigoration, as you mentioned, Agad. The process may feel painful but the result is beneficial, which may be Sir John Simon's point in saying so about chess being a cold bath for the mind - a mental labor but beneficial and invigorating in its aftermath.

It's nice to see MVL back to the top of his game. After the Covid Candidates, it felt he had a really long dry period where we didn't compete as much with the top players.

Great Game by MVL I have seen many comments about Magnus state of mind competing in this tournament after having suffered the loss of his mother of course that could’ve been affecting his play Great play from MVL it takes a lot to defeat Magnus Chess being a cold bath to the mind I see the phrase meaning it is like a wake up to the mind invigorating your mind to solve the complexities playing Chess creates Thanks Agadmator Enjoy your Day

How do you finish this game

I think the knight on c3 can't move or else the b3 rook will be hanging, but also next move black can just take the knight on c3 and will go up a piece.
