      But not due to Magnus being so ingenious more to the other dude blundering his position away with 3:30 more time. Against Magnus you only win by making very few to no mistakes and playing consistently good moves.

      @@ThirdLife86 i got your point, Magnus made some mistakes in the game that was not ingenious, but his ability to out calculate a Grandmaster having 4 times less time was. Also you could argue Magnus has never won because of him being brilliant, just his oponents made mistake and miscalculated at some point and he took advantage, cause chess played with no mistakes is just a draw 🤷

      The latin word "Magnus" also evolved into the French word "Magne" as in "Charlemagne" which in Latin is "Carolus Magnus" Carolus > "Charles" in English and "Karl" in German. So the name "Magnus Carlson" is almost a sort of play on son of Charlemagne with some words swapped round.

    When Stockfish is a good idea if there was better moves, when I use it post game in my 700 it is assuming my opponent plays massively differently, The Ai upset I refused to trade queens, both in starting position, I later got their queen for free when they hung it. Trading really is pointless below 1k because ignored pins happen all the time. So long you keep pressure you can exploit mistakes. Even if in higher Elos it wouldn't work.

  • @anythingpeteives
    @anythingpeteives Před rokem

    In the last game when Magnus was down to a bishop and the white rook was on b5 I think Rb4 would have been stronger. It ties all Black's pieces to the queen's side. If black tries to push the a pawn, white plays c4, cutting off the bishop and allowing Ra4 next move. So black needs to defend the pawn with the bishop and also forces the black king to protect the b pawn. That leaves white with 3 pawns and a king against 1 pawn on the king's side.
    So black needs to use 3 tempi to protect everything before it can free up the bishop whilst white is advancing on that isolated black pawn on f6.
