Nijat was having the tournament of a lifetime. Then he hit Magnus in bracket. That sucks for him. At least he was able to make a deep, deep run before that. I know he's not "technically" eliminated yet because the players need to switch colors. Let's face it though-- he's not beating Magnus. Either way, he's played spectacularly and has nothing to be ashamed of.
He wasn’t realistically going to win the World Cup but he did make it into the candidates so this was the best possible result he could’ve hoped for
@@ifbfmto9338 true. I didn't actually mean to imply that he otherwise would've won. I just would've been interested in seeing how much further he could've kept his hot streak going if he didn't run into Magnus when he did.
@@compromisedssh That’s fair
He’s playing extremely strong chess without any question
Brilliant analysis. I learnt a lot about open lines and sacrifices to draw pieces from defending key squares.
Thanks very much!
This game really shows how interesting chess can be. It was so crazy and seemingly random.
Yeah it was a tough one to analyse! Such an amazing battle
Who would've found queen f1? My first guesses would be Pragg and Hiraku.
Hiraku? You mean Hiraku Namaruka?
@@hoon_sol lol yes I do
@@cygnustsp:
Alright, good; I was afraid maybe you'd confused him for Hakiru Nukarama.
@@hoon_soli cant tell if you also got his name wrong on purpose or not😅
@@carterhale6227:
How would I get the name of Hukira Nukaruma wrong? It's not that hard.
Magnus was crushing after move 8
Fascinsting game, love how it developed and changed into mutual threats on enemy kings
Not a novelty. Played previously and recommended by engine, per Carlsen
Watch first 30 seconds of this - defo a novelty!! th-cam.com/video/U1x7i_AjvL8/w-d-xo.html
1:21 if Magnus did take the e5 pawn with his knight, black has qd4, attacking knight and rook simultaneously and no way to protect them both
Nope. Not that simple. After Qd4 Nc4! Qxa1 Nc3 black queen cant escape.
@@osgubben ahh good point. But. White needs two moves to win her with bishop b2 move, otherwise queen trade (o-o, and queen move off first rank). So what if black tried be7 and bf6 to capture the c3 knight and pressure the long diagonal.
so continuing from your variation ending at nc3 be7 o-o bf6 and black will capture c3 knight next turn followed by capturing with his queen and escape the long diagonal, and bb2 still not possible due to queen trade
After Be7 white goes castle and after Bf6 Bb2. Queen now has to take rook on F1 and resulting position is better for white as black is underdeveloped with poor pawns.
@@mstefa007 white queen is still on first rank, black can capture it after the line u mentioned
Yeah sorry should have mentioned - basically there's nasty queen trap line if you go for the rook, as has been mentioned. Another really interesting move for black is queen g5, there was a Simon Williams vs David Howell game from there! Simon much better out of opening but Howell made a come back and won it!
Great analysis as usual. I like your slower analysis over Levy's hyper approach. Makes me really appreciate the strategy more, going over those other variations.
Thanks a lot Watteau appreciate it as always!
6:14 -- isn't Rd6 a potentially good resource for Black ?? Didn't Nijat consider it??
So weird by Epic to completely avoid this analysis line... O_o
.
Sorry maybe missed that one! Forget the details I’m afraid
Love your commentary.
Thanks very much appreciate it
Epic commentary. You preemptively answered all the questions ! Great game from Magnus, the preparation was crazy smart, making Abasov double his pawn. It's quite scary to give up the center, but Magnus played the long run. What a master class !
Thanks man appreciate it, I wasn't sure how good I'd done on this one really because was quite complicated and I didn't have as long as I would have liked to look over it all. Cheers for watching
@@epicchess2021 Don't overthink it! It was really a perfect commentary, with an original personality. One of you best videos. Mean it.
Love the enthusiasm per usual. Great energy covering a fantastic tournament
Thanks very much! Cheers for watching!
Really scrappy game, many inaccuracies and few blunders from both sides. Weird game from Magnus in particular, Abasov could have punished Magnus easily but he missed Qf1, i am scared for Magnus in second game. He admitted in interview with Tania and Simon that he was very nervous the whole game.
1:56 This looks wild!
yeah haha
They hold a world cup chess to find the greatest in the absence of the greatest the greatest is unknown though claimed known
The title suggests something amazing as in forcing a won game but with good play by the opponent, a draw or even a win was possible as Magnus is still a fallible human.
Here first

If white plays nxe5 what happens after qd4?
Rg1 😆🤣... such disrespect from Magnus, I wonder if this rattles most 2600s when Magnus just shows he's not even trying to objectively play the best moves, or if they get excited he might have overreached, I bet the former, they know enough to know they're going into a dark forest and will not be able to keep up with the lines against Magnus even with theoretical advantage. 'no, no little 2600, you're not Giri, a theory draw is not in the cards for you, you're going to dance, calculate little 2600, calculate...'
😂 yeah he’s brutal OP
I've recently come to this conclusion about chess. Yes, smarts and a good deal of memorization for tricks and extensively for the wide variety of openings are needed to be at the top of this game, but it's basically all the same things going on, just with different flavors and becomes a game of who makes a bad move and who can find a way to exploit it, and thus, it also takes one who's not super brilliant to stay in this, one who doesn't much entertain the ego and repetitive aspects involved. This recognition still doesn't take away an interest in the game. I willfully stopped playing because if not at a level where I can make money from it (as if money really should be earned from a game that in the big picture of life seems weird as it's not producing anything, not providing a service to anyone, basically meaningless effort) and not willing to accept the lameness of the repetition (think of Hikaru for example taking on challengers and making millions per year on twitch - just how can one just keep doing the same thing over and over again unless perhaps the money is paramount or the ego needs to keep getting filled from the accomplishment of winning) but that once you become realized, beating anyone at anything shouldn't provide any joy at all, but the quest for perfection, to solve something either for some good for mankind or even just something worthless but an act of solving for just the intellectual exercise without any other human involved that is at a deficit from the act is a more noble focus.
Really interesting thoughts thanks for sharing. Hope you’re enjoying it at least anyway!
"Secret" novelty? As opposed to all those "publicised" novelties................
Haha yeah I mean embellished a bit ! Hope you enjoyed tho
Well chosen game. And credit to Abasov for fighting to reach equality.
Thank and yeah defo. Cheers for watching
In general people playing Magnus think too defensive and don´t explore that Magnus could actually make a bad move. It´s like in bowling where you only play your own game but players still score lower against the top players.
Please do Caruana’s games!
yeah will look to do that one later! Also want to do his game against Robson soon
The move Rg1 was really the star move, there had been one similar position to d3 but in that game white castled kingside.
Looks like AlfaZero prep.
Could you also add the time controls as the game goes along?
Yeah normally they show on the left, well the clock situation, time control I often mention at the start but sometimes forget sorry!
Nice game to watch. Just one question though; Exactly what is secret about a legal move from a visible position? Novelty sure, but secret???
Thanks and yeah I mean you could say embellished a bit for the intrigue, but certainly it is prep that MAgnus has kept hidden until now anyway!
Dubov prep from 2021 maybe?
Yeah could be, strange this move hasn't been seen before, quite a fresh position this whole line
I’ll call it a fork, which it actually is 😊
Thanks haha, couldn’t think yesterday
Great commentary, thank you!
thank you appreciate it. cheers for watching
The secret novelty was the computer's top choice in the position.
Yeah but still never seen before ! You’re right tho Magnus said in interview didn’t he that his opponent probably knew the move
It was a fork! A skewer is an attack on a piece through another piece of higher value, when both pieces are on the same rank, file or diagonal. 🙃
Haha thank you, could sense skewer was t the word, too tired yesterday lol. Thanks for watching!
@@epicchess2021 Crazy game! thanks.
Thanks!
Thanks philo very generous of you much appreciated! Cheers for watching, glad you enjoyed
I don't want to see what didn't happen. It's just confusing.
How do you learn then ?
Uh, no. That's the whole point of analysis.
Haha yeah maybe too many sidelines on this one I dunno, was a pretty complex game to analyse I found
@@epicchess2021 noo it was great 👍👍 keep going
@@epicchess2021 I get that you're responding to a person with his own preferences. I think you've got just about the right mix of showing us what different lines could've led to though. If I had my way, I'd advise you to continue making these videos and show as many alternate possibilities as feels natural to you.
