    This might be my game of the year ahead of Dubov’s. The positional understanding here from Ivanchuck is absolutely incredible! The knight manoeuvres followed by a pawn sac to let the bishop roam free. And it’s the supposedly ‘bad’ bishop of the queen’s gambit. Fantastic.

  • @idfx1000

    One beautiful point of Black's set up here is that the c8-bishop is already and perfectly developed, and so is the queen actually. Given Black's slight deficit in space, connecting the rooks (thus completing development) in this way is just wonderful, especially since it helps prevent the fearsome f3-e4 plan.

    Chucky : 1) ne pas oublier sa monstrueuse expérience ! Il a joué contre les plus grands joueurs et maintes champions du monde, de toute génération 2) c'est pour ça qu'il dure au travers des décennies tel Kortchnoi 3) avoir été pendant plus de 20 ans à 2700 +, c'est bien rare. C'est pour ça qu'il est capable comme ici de produire une partie stratégique et positionnelle exceptionnelle. Je suis très admiratif, c'est un exemple pour tous les joueurs âgés (dont je fais partie)

    That reminds me more than a few of Spassky's games. Ivanchuk's style is (in my humble opinion) pretty much like Boris'. That's perhaps the reason why he thought for a while to be Chuky's mentor. Had he Spassky's 1969 nerves, he would have become World Champion many years ago...

  • @hubertsang7418
    @hubertsang7418 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Shades of R.Byrne-Fischer, US championship 1963-1964. Byrne expected Fischer to win the Exchange, had he had done so, white would still have had the upper hand with pressure against the isolated black pawn. Instead Fischer took the white bishop in g2 for a mating attack that nobody had seen, not even the chess commentators at the game. So, after move 22-...... Qd7 , the game ended. The word around was that Fischer had lost. And everyone was congratulating Byrne for his victory. Byrne then replied that it was he who had resigned!!

    The enthusiasm with which you analyze games from Ivanchuk is maybe only matched by those of Topalov (and perhaps Carlsen at his absolute best). I’m curious, if you could have just one player’s best games between Ivanchuk and Topalov, is there one you prefer?

    I don't know what game these super-grandmasters play nowadays. If I would have put my knight at the edge of the board and weakened the squares around my king for no good reason, my father would have berated me harshly when I was 10 years old. Rightly so.

    H4 seemed like a huge concession that had no upsides (the knight just came via a different route). What about 22.Bxg6 - is the bishop or the knight stronger? Maybe white even has time to triple on the c-file (Rd3-c3,Rc1) and tie at least queen and bishop to the defence of the QS, while introducing the idea of an exchange sac on c6 for 2 pawns. How does black make progress after 22.Bxg6 when queen and bishop are on defensive duty? Another setup for white: Rc1, Rc2, Qd3 with pressure on a6, b6, c6.

    2. another interesting plan: instead of 17.Nf3 to try to push f4 with Nf3-e5 sacrificing the e3 pawn: 17.f4 Rae7 18.Nf3 Rxe3 19.Rxe3 Rxe3 20.Bxg6 hxg6 21.Ne5. x c6, and Qc1 trapping the rook is on the way.

  • @davidblue819
    @davidblue819 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ivanchuk seems to have had no fear at any time that he would wind up with a bad light-squared bishop, Black's common unfortunate fate in these Queen's Gambits. He always had it covered, but if any little thing had gone wrong... And how could Ivanchuk have known it wouldn't? He just sat there, with his queen tied to the weak b-pawn by a mere knight, with his bishop blocked by a backward pawn, maneuvering comfortably, setting up his chances... Unreal. Boggling.

    May be you can create a theme where black plays ne4 and goes on to attack white.. like the theme with the octopus knught. At least in club play, this theme of ne4 is quite frequent and annoying.
    Also at 19 minutes , you said "nothing sensible can be done to stop Bg4 mate"..were you expecting Navara to flip the board ?!
