Positional Queen Sac | Magnus Carlsen vs David Navara - 2018 Biel Chess Festival

- čas přidán 22. 07. 2018
- This is a round 1 game from the 51st Biel International Chess Festival (Accentus Grandmaster Tournament) between the current World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen, and David Navara. The opening is a Ragozin with play sharpening after Carlsen's 12.Nb5. With Navara facing the loss of material, he counters with 3 successive punches towards Carlsen's minors. Move 15 would be the great decision point in the game. After considering for approximately 25 minutes, Carlsen concluded the best option was to say goodbye to his own queen. Coordination from then on would be king.

"Throw punches at the white minors."
Sentences such as this show the importance of context.
Nah, in this day and age I don't think anyone would have a problem with that, he'd just apoligize and keep his new position in the New York Ti - *cough*.
PastorOfMuppets Ha good one
I read this exactly when he said it, feels good
I agree, the explicit mention of race and age is irrelevant
I’ll punch anyone, I may get arrested, I may get my ass kicked, but no one is immune from getting punched
@@theWebWizrd is this someone specific?
Showing the clock time was a good touch. Really shows which points players considered critical. Great video as always.
*sees Queen sac in title*
Me: nice
Noice
Hey Jerry, great analysis and presentation as always. I just wanted to give some positive feedback about the ending sequence. I've always enjoyed seeing the move quality graph at the end of the games, and just wanted to say the inclusion of the small analysis board which demonstrated the lines you were referring to while going through the graph really helped conceptualise the mistakes Navara made. Cheers for the video mate!
Thanks Mark. I was staring at that end scene and it always felt a little empty on the top half...finally sparked an idea 💡.
great analysis of the analysis!
great analysis of the analysis of the analysis!
hi everyone, its Jerry, This time, we kinda altready know where this game is going, a perpetual ! so ... great analysis of the analysis of the analysis of the analysis
hand shake.
carlsen is scary
Frøken Glattbarbert Stillas-sikkerhetsinspektør sooooo BOLD
I have made that very queen sacrifice in a game before. Except it was a bullet game and I didn't see my queen would be trapped and I ended up resigning. Cool to see I could've played on for up to a win!
Aradair Krawl *Drops queen* Mmmm oh yeah that was a sac 100% planned
Aradair Krawl Bullet games don't let you think positionally.
Well as Finegold use to say, if you lose it's a blunder, if you win it's a sacrifice
@@diegeigergarnele7975 terrible
Amazing game. This is why Magnus is world champion. Amazing.
Jerry, I really loved the inclusion of the mock board at the end alongside the tale of the tape and you going over potential lines where either player could have gone wrong. Thanks for all the work you put into these videos
Every move explained, Thank you jerry for the amazing analysis
I can't wait for your commentary about the WCC.
Damn right! I feel like the Carlsen/Karjakin commentary was not so long ago hah. Time flies by!
Carlsen wins. Here's your commentary :D.
Great analysis, Jerry. Thanks for sharing!
Always a pleasure watching Carlsen squeeze water from a rock.
from a rook*
nice stealing agadmators quote
+Eduardo Vasquez
Blood from a rock and water from a rock are common expressions. No one owns a copyright on them.
a likely story
+Eduardo Vasquez
Are you seriously implying that agadmators coined the term "water from a rock"? Google is your friend. Try it some time. Exodus 17:1-3, 5-6 circa 4000 BCE. That kind of predates anything on CZcams.
magnus carlsen is an endgame monster
indeed
Thanks for sharing these amazing games to the world
Thanks Jerry, as always excellent understanding and mentoring, Keep up the great work !!!
😎👍
Another great video thanks Jerry, and magnificent to see Magnus in this sort of form,
Amazing analyze Jerry! Keep going ;) This tournament in Biel seems fantastic!
Fantastic game by Carlsen! I would have lost it for a thousand of reasons.
I think many can relate. 😎
Fantastic clear presentation man. Thank you for your explanations
Amazing as usual!
This game fascinated me in that the queen sacrifice happened pretty early, and then a fair amount of simplification happened and the material difference was only made up quite a bit later. I'm always fascinated by these games that show the importance of efficiency, mobility, and positioning of pieces, to where they overcome material differences. What white lost in material he made up for in utilization. I especially appreciate how you drew attention to how white consistently kept his pieces defended in the late-game, and how you showed how that made a difference. Some of these grandmaster games are WAAAY over my head because the combinations run too deep for me to follow them, but you managed to make this game accessible in a way that I felt like I was able to get a lot out of watching it, and I really appreciate that. Even though I never will reach the level of these players, I can still take something out of this game and its commentary and apply it to my own playing.
One open question I had here was: how far ahead did he see when he made this sacrifice? He couldn't have possibly seen all the combinations out to the full depth that they played out, but rather, looked at the position and gambled that it was worth the sacrifice for the better mobility. It's pretty easy to see how well-utilized his pieces are after he makes that sacrifice. What makes a truly top-notch player though is one who correctly estimates whether or not the gain is worth the loss. That's always what I struggle with. I can see what I'm giving up, see what I'm gaining, but can't do a great job of balancing one against the other.
I just love your analysis !
dude, you've made my favorite chess channel :)
I looked at a game that I played on lichess last year and it was clear to me that I had made significant progress since then.
I was seeing that I had traded my good bishop for a bad one, that I wasn't bringing my king to the center in the endgame, etc.
All these things that now I see, I see them thanks to you.
Your videos are highly instructives for a lot of people.
Thank you very much!
All those details add up! You’re welcome!
What's your rating?
Absolutely loved that end game analysis! Any other great end game studies of yours?!
Very interesting and exiting game! Thanks for charing your thoughts Jerry! :D
Very nice! Thanks Jerry!
Brilliant analysis
i saw this game review commented by agamator. But I learnt more from your commets. Great analysis!!!
HI Jerry. Thanks so much. I'm new to your commentary, only about two weeks now. Really enjoying your show!
Thank you Kenny.
Excellent explanation
Excited for the video Jerry, always love your commentary, will you be doing three WCC 2018? Though and though?
Rez
He better do it. Or else...
great analysis as always Jerry. you're top dog in the chess community by far.
Awesome video, like always.
Thank you Kahitar
Brilliant analysis.
Carlsen truly is a force to be reckoned with. To be able to see that you could still have an aggressive attack after sacking the queen that early in the game demonstrates a deep understanding of the game. Truly mystifying to an amateur player like me. Thanks for the great commentary, Jerry!
Great vid thanks
Great analysis!!
Qg2# would ave been gorgeous. Thank you pointing that possibility out for us to admire.
I knew you were going to make a video about this game. I knew it! I saw it and thought "no point to analyze this, Jerry will do a better job than me".
Thanks!
Magnus Carlsen is good at chess.
He should try competing at the world chess championship
Christopher Johnson perhaps he should think about advancing his chess career to challenge the big boys.
Indeed, pretty decent. It is just that he have a habit of taking so long to finish the opponent off.
You don't say?
He has competed at the championship, he's the World Champion, and he is the biggest boy.
God, I love your videos. So, so instructive. Great, great job, Jerry.
Thank you Guito
And just so that you can have an idea, I'm brazilian, by the way. You got some fans down here.
I love your explanation cheers
I really enjoy your videos. Is there any chance you could do some quick analyses of the world championship next month?
awesome game! Thank you :)
Well explained, interesting analysis!
Thank you 😊
Nice game and the lesson is about coordination of pieces and it's importance in my opinion.
"Queen B6 hitting everything" made me chuckle.
Fantastic game overall.
Wonderful game
very instructive game
I get excited when Jerry says pop quiz to you!
Thanks Men
Got yourself a new subscriber with this vid
I am in awe of how Carlsen played that endgame. With those big pieces still around, there is always the possibility of big mistakes .. which is what happened. In the finale, my small chess mind missed the beautiful f4, exchanging the e-passer for the more remote g-passer, which Carlsen probably saw as being decisive right back on move 55. These guys play like gods!
There are several chess analyst in the web...but you're the finest by far.
Thanks Jerry!
Thank you Jerry!
Very intresting content! Clean game by Carlsen
That is some foresight
The quality of analysis and everything else is so much better than agadmater.
Great game!!
this is a fantastic game
Qh1 idea to stalemate is awesome
pure gold
I would love to know your (or anyone else who is qualified) thoughts on the likely point to which Magnus saw ahead when he decided to sac the queen. I'm sure even he wouldn't have seen up to the "fortress" point with rook and knight against queen. But up to where would he have calculated to conclude that the queen sac was viable? Thanks for a great video as always.
Hi Jerry, Quick little question. Yet very important! Are you planning on covering the world championship in november on live stream? I believe we're quite a few people hoping you will ;)
I anticipate covering the match as I have for past championships.
That was an awesome game 👍👍 Can I have more please
In your videos, could you include the pieces that each player is up. For example, early in the opening Lichess would record Carlsen being up a knight and Navara up a bishop. Its not necessary but would be helpful when you're delirious early in the morning.
What a quality difference between yours and Agadmator's game analysis.
For example for dropping the H and B pawns as black Agad said something like: "I'm not sure why he did that.".
I like that guy and I hold nothing against him or his channel but CN is by far the best chess channel on YT. Facts.
Absolutely love the uploads, Jerry. Keep it up - I'm sharing you to all my friends!
Luka Markač John Bartholomew also has great educational value, in my opinion. He explains his thought process really well, while playing on a very high level. But he doesn't really do pure game-analysis videos.
John's is my second best chess channel. Let me point out that John might be a better chess player but imho Jerry's commentary is unrivalled.
Quantum Horizon Yeah, John is most definitely better, he's a strong IM, fighting for GM, after all. But you're right, Jerry's sense of humour is amazing, and his commentary hilarious and engaging, as well as instructive.
Wow!! What a game... Definition of a True Champion..
Jerry: here’s the tale of the tape
Me: naw I’m good
Jerry: tough, you’re gonna see it anyway!
Navara played well, improving consistently lately
Simply awesome. Well, technically not simple at all, but still awesome.
15:48 : Qc2 was a blunder. The best move was Kh6 according to Stockfish. That's why it evaluated this position so poorly given the outcome; it was assuming that black would make that Kh6 move and not Qc2. Before this move evaluation was 0.00. After Qc2 it was +0.52 for white at a 45 depth. Black's next move, Qd3 was also a mistake. Best move was Qd1 apparently. Before this move we sit at a +0.52 evaluation, after we sit at a +1.2 evaluation. Edit: at 16:07 you actually recognize this. By staying trained on the a4 pawn a draw is pretty much inevitable. Kh6 would be the move of choice since it's pretty much the only available move for black.
One of the sharpest Q sacs I can remember
Very good!
Nice....very nice👍👌
the bluntness of your intros always makes me laugh
Hey Jerry, I've been watching a lot of GM Ben Finegold's lectures and he heavily presses that the queen and bishop is far superior to the queen and knight. Obviously position is unique, but in general this is his stance and I've found in your previous videos that you seem to favor the queen and knight pair, would you mind going further into detail? The only difference I can think of is the bishop generally has more squares to observe and can attack from a distance, making it easier to safely coordinate with the queen. However, I also see how the knights unique movement can help secure squares with the queen that a bishop and queen would have trouble controlling. I suspect my thought process is entirely wrong, so any advice would help. Thanks for the videos, you help a lot of people.
At 13:46 after g5 isnt it maybe an idea to play Rd5 to grab the two kingside pawns, then sac the rook for the a-pawn and try to push the 3 connected passers with a knight?
So a little late to this and I'm definitely showing my ignorance of chess, but on move 23 why would Navara recapturing with the Queen (Qxc7) be game over with Carlsen move 24 being Ke7? Like what's the sequence after that mates? Or it's basically game over since Carlsen would be up a Minor piece having forked the Navara's Queen and King?
Im a simple man. I see jerry and carlsen in the same video I like
you're definitely simple.
I am very sad, that David lost this game. But I must say that It was really interesting fight. Magnus is a chess monster ;)
@5:14 Black moved bishop to B7, why not F7 pawn to F6 to pressure the Knight and help out the Queen?
Where did u get the picture of Magnus in the thumbnail?
I am a beginner and thanks the analysis
ah good I had just finished my xvideos session
spreading the good vibes about the chess community
thanks lol
Now now now, no disrespect to my fellow xnxx viewers I was just in a different mood tonight
By the pope...
Pornhub>xvideos
What heresy is this?!
Im living in Biel, but I was working and haven't saw this game :(
Vods are great😎
Yeah me too
3:16 what about knight takes e5 with the idea of a3 b4?
At Move 11 for white you say that white places an emphasis von development - if white plays c6 though (an option you mentioned Jerry), doesn't that come with a tempo and if black recaptures you are not worse off when castling on the 12th move?
Is it mainly due to the fact that a black pawn on c6 restricts the white knight, that c6 isn't played by white?
sorry if this has been asked already, but at 1:00 after qf6 doesn't qa4 win the bishop? why does white go for pawn e3?
What a beast
At 3:12 Black plays e5 threatening the white Knight on d4. Can White take the pawn with Knight Nxe5 because if the Queen recaptures Qxe5 the white Knight on d4 can fork bishop and Queen and with g3 and Bf3 white can force the Black Queen from defense of the Bishop and win both the strong bishop back and a pawn also?
the balls on carlsen...
amazing game
So was there no better move for black then queen e6 losing the queen? You say that there was just too many threats but it seems like its such an abrupt ending after a drawn out battle.
is queen for rook and bishop really a sacrifice?
Wow giving up the queen for a stalemate was not even a mini thought in my mind. That’s pretty nice
Crazy complexity
at 01:03 why didnt white go for Queen D4 check and capture the bishop?
Cool game..I dont think Navara expected a positional queen sac.
