Mushroom Cube sacking the exhange is giving a rook for a minor piece or pawn. Which means u lost material as rooks are worth 5 points Pieces 3 points 1 point for pawn
It so cool how Magnus Carlson's genius extends over the idea a rook being more important than a knight, and trading it off to plan so many moves ahead, never making mistakes and executing it perfectly.
ive noticed what separates GMs from the rest of us is that they never stick to classic strategies that tell you which pieces to keep such as keeping the rooks at all costs in the end games, crazy how he was able to calculate giving up his rook knowing hed get it back
Yes mine went from 0.33 to 12.5. Rook needed to stay on first rank (after gxh5 Rxh5 it has left first rank) and either harass the king with checks or pressure the b pawn from behind (depending on where the white N goes). It seems to be a draw according to GM Stockfish. (Carlsen even said in his interview that Black could probably hold draw but it was very tricky).
yeah true , especially since the threat of d6 was kinda obvious. i dont know if Hou didnt calculate it through (she had the time) or simply didnt see the move
i was playing chess back in middle school when i was around 14.. Then after 1 or 2 years i stopped and never really played it again. Now im seeing these kind of Videos randomly appearing in my recommended and they are super interesting xD i watch atleast 1 per day

Your way of explaining these chess games is really good. I hardly play chess but when i do i always think of make the best moves without drawing to much risk. But the styles of gameplay im seeing just takes it over the edge, along with you opinions of how the game could been in the opposite favor had a different move been played instead. Well done. +1 sub
Hey dude, love your videos, just a bit confusing when you are discussing possible moves that the players could have made. I can't tell when you finish describing a possible move and a real move that was made.
This is like my 20th video I've watched by you and have to say I really enjoy your commentary and analysis of the games. As an average fan, its nice having a peek into the more competitive and technical side of things. Keep it up !
Well, to be fair, if we're not talking professional level competition, there are coed sports, like indoor soccer. I've played a good amount of coed indoor soccer. It's definitely a LOT easier against the girls lol
I mean this isn't a super fair comparison as Magnus has been the world champion since 2013, and has achieved the highest FIDE rating in history, while Yifan has never crossed the 2700 super-grandmaster threshold. The last time she was even top 60 was in 2015.
@@adrians3267 non active players can still play chess. and pulgar is a prodigy with insane memory, i am pretty sure she could still play today at the level she did back when she was active.
I actually felt like Yifan was doing really well, and that sac allowed Carlson to be more aggressive, but wasn't thaaaat beneficial in the long run imo. It was more Carlson outplaying Yifan in the endgame I feel.
Actually before h5 by hou ifan, the engines evaluate the position at 0.05 at depth 40, rd1 was the move that leads to draw with correct play, magnus said she could have held after the match and even the commentators acknowledged after the game that rd1 would have drawn with correct play, I am just saying this as you said magnus had winning position, which by engine eval he didnt at that point :)
This is true. The h5 pawn move by Hou is what made her lose, but MC did make it rather easy for her to do a wrong move and hard to do the right. I wouldn't know what to do in that position either. Hou should work on her end-game, as it seems that is where she suffers every game this tournament.
Håkon of course it's tough position but I just say it's not winning, anyway I am crap player I understand the basic principle of why it can draw when shown but I couldn't draw it against a grandmaster obviously! But many grandmaster could draw that there it's why mc said after game it was probably draw.....

Can anyone explain to me why when white moved the g pawn to g4 at 8:18, instead of moving the rook to h1, why not move it back to g2 to capture the g pawn? The white knight would no longer be able to defend it, the white pawn has nowhere to run, and the rook is not yet needed to keep the white h pawn from queening.
Most woman players only keep to themselves, and so when the best woman players are rated below 2600, it's not like they will all of a sudden go 2750 or something. :p It's like if MC was to go 2950 when the best players barely hit 2800 once in a while. After Hou won woman champ, she's been playing in open, and so her rating has grown ahead of the other woman players too. Honestly, this is what all the best woman players should do if they want to up their game, but they are incentivized to play woman only tournaments, because they are easier to win, and they often have good prizes to encourage woman players to play.
at 4:31 can Carlsen play nc6+? because if bishop captures, carlsen's bishop cuts the king off and limits Yifan's rook on A8 to moving only c8 If Yifan moves his king you get a rook but if she doesnt your a much better position than black can someone analyze this?
I have never heard of these Players and don't play chess regulary, but man, Carlsen's swirk on his face just screams "come and try me kiddo, I'm gonna beat ya!" :D

Beautiful, beautiful endgame play by Carlsen, as always. Very dangerous with that dark square bishop and knight combo.
Do you just memorize every move of the match or what? LOL
Suren or agadmators chess channel who is ur favourite??
Mandar Kulkarni Suren is terrible.
Both are good
Who?
Robi_CK exactly
Agad.
Who's watching this in quarantine? Lol
at 4:31 can Carlsen play nc6+?
because if bishop captures, carlsen's bishop cuts the king off and limits Yifan's rook on A8 to moving only c8
If Yifan moves his king you get a rook but if she doesnt your a much better position than black can someone analyze this?
I have never heard of these Players and don't play chess regulary, but man, Carlsen's swirk on his face just screams "come and try me kiddo, I'm gonna beat ya!" :D
I wish I could watch the matches with no commentary
