It's rediculous how much endgames Magnus wins. But he always find more subtle things in a position that slightly favoures him then his opponents. Even when Magnus makes a mistake of himself (Nc6).

[@hamidshaikh3854]

May i know why at the last Prag did not take the pon with the bishop? might be draw ?

[@ksham.]

It's dead lost. The Black Pawn cannot move. The White King will step over and take the last Black Pawn; Pragg can do nothing to prevent this. Then it'll be King and 2 pawns vs King, which is a trivial win.

He isn't going to win coz Magnus would promote his one pawn and convert it into queen and game over for pragg

[@badrinathgaming4626]

The position is lost for Pragg, see after bishop takes magnus is up a pawn and he can gradually move his king towards his remaining 2 pawns and eventually make a queen. Because he has a time majority, it is quite easy for him.

It's a Armageddon game which means Tie breaker . Rule is White gets more time but it has to win whereas black gets less time but for black even draw is consider as win. So that match wouldn't be draw again. Time is various 4 vs 5min ,7 vs 10min etc

[@preethu19]

Why did Pragg resign, why can't bishop take the E6 pawn? King takes the Bishop and Black's king still has a lot of space to avoid checkmate.

[@amitkumar3651]

Bro there is a scientific reason behind this😂 or you are prbahanada🎉

[@youtube_withkd2136]

Exactly

[@erhhsdhh2099]

Because Magnus takes the queen, Pragg takes the Queen and then Magnus takes the rook. He gets a queen in a rook in exchange for a queen and a knight

[@tanken4249]

Magnus see the boxes, and see how the knight is jumping around to make the kill , prag need to see sometime to sac to save the game, but he decide to play safe, but then magbus ready to sac his knight, and force prag to give up his bishop, and slowly push king to corner and make the queen.

[@BreakdancingMiracle]

Dang!!! That was clutch!

[@yikes3336]

at 17:53 could Prag not take on e6 sacrificing his bishop pushing for a draw??

[@LivingBibleVideos]

99% of the people watching this game don't understand how amazing this game is and Magnus is. Magnus has to wrestle with the fact that he cannot draw. To play this well, one must maintained confidence that he can win at all phases of the game without having to accept an inferior position by holding onto material. Then there's the fact that he spots the inaccuracies and finishes in such a wonderful way. Then there's the fact that he's doing this to one of the best players on the planet. Magnus is still years ahead of the competition honestly.

Chess tournament structire b knockout. Eye challengo dat wiw da swiss draw. Pieces have different value, queen worth more than pawn. If pawn promotes = higher value. This promotes different chess playstyle, because takeing promoted pawn will give more points. Now a win is not just a win, there are small wins and big wins.
