I played along on SmallFish. They both played the book until move 13, then Magnus basically played like an engine the entire game. I think he has a stock fish computer wired into his brain.

Carlsen has a gift. He really is the definition of a tremendous player. So good in fact many of the Super GMs play right into his hands. He takes them out of their comfort zone with a less than optimal opening, then it's as if they expect a stupendous unsighted attack coming at every turn, or envisage strategic master plan at work, and in response they err on the side of caution, or try to over think things. As such they typically just get walked over in a fairly straightforward, and in hindsight, obvious manner. It really just is beautiful to watch. I bet it's as easy for him as he makes it look.

@Peter sturm he's right

[@biernico]

I was seeing this game live. And at one point the comentador was saying: draw. And the engine was like: black winning.

[@Jaak3l]

Wow! what a stalemate trap on rxf3

[@Lightysword]

I always enjoy seeing the Dutch being played! Maybe Magnus will restore some popularity if he keeps beating the best with it. Anand and Caruana is a good start.

[@jasperhalsey8574]

Usually when Black plays the Dutch, you’d expect an attack on White’s Kingside, but in this game Magnus generated a lot of play on the Queenside

[@Sprysage]

Enjoy the fact that the Dutch remains an under-rated opening. A French-Dutch opening system for Black is a good foundation from which to build, especially if one is mindful of not rushing the Stonewall formation.

[@dmaster20ify]

Carlsen's style is like a fusion of Kasparov and Karpov. Sacrificing for a positional grip. Karpov used to just gain the positional grip.

thanks for commenting so quick after the game is finished...

More Jedi mind tricks from Magnus

[@PraveenKumar-ph6jh]

Excellent game by Carlsen! Thanks for the analysis.

[@universalchesslyfe3813]

Great video. I really like the Dutch Defense!

[@QuiksiIver]

I too have found c6 then d5 to be more reliable. often I have trouble if white pushes an early e4 before I have the f5 + d5 pawns up

[@GenAnxiety]

This is awesome ! I love playing the Dutch.

[@Narrowcros]

Magnus almost always win when he tries to simpfy the end game with a slight advantage

[@mubarkqardas46]

What are ideas to beat the Dutch Stonewall... I never saw this opening until I got about 1950 fide then it's been played alot and giving me trouble.

[@maximemalo1767]

Qe2 before Nc3 was the mistake ? @ 6mins

[@noahmubirujr1428]

It's a brilliant game he played like a machine

[@Game0verFool]

Caruana must be scratching his head after this game haha.

[@roselord66]

carlsen is almost unbeatable in his top level play....its a fact...

[@QuiksiIver]

Also I find the dutch makes it too convenient for white to push f4.

[@SomeRandomGuy777x]

Makes no difference, if anything black is closer to equalizing. Should figure there is a reason super GM's don't play F4.

[@piangkho364]

nice
