| Dec-07-21 | | technical draw: Nepo's 19.h4 signals his desire to win. In fact he must make an early attempt to make complications. A draw here with white makes it almost a lost cause. |

| Dec-07-21 | | Diademas: Sesse, Stockfish on steroids, has had it dead even for quite some time. https://analysis.sesse.net/ |

| Dec-07-21 | | Retireborn: I still like ...Qf8 |
|
| Dec-07-21 | | beenthere240: This is how Carlsen often loses -time trouble |

 | | offramp: Both these players avoid exchanges. Real fighters. |
|
| Dec-07-21 | | Ulhumbrus: 22 Re2 defends the a2 pawn so as to free the rook on a1 to develop |
|
| Dec-07-21 | | Diademas: <beenthere240: This is how Carlsen often loses -time trouble> Not sure that is correct. |

 | | blazerdoodle: He is a very nervy player. I'd pop up the pop corn if my record player was working. I'm amazed at how many positions I felt he was losing to see he was in control all along. But someone like Nepo can have a shot at him right? OhioChessFan. It's a great piece. That little box in that bar in Walnut Hills got me collecting Duke at that time. Need to get the old record player fixed. And the game? Carlsen always looks like he's about to go down with the ship. He missed his time - 1800's with all those crazy gambits ... |

| | offramp: That stupid beast will AGAIN be an empty horse. The Knight went back to b3.! |

| Dec-07-21 | | beenthere240: Hey hes flagged in big games |

 | | An Englishman: Good Afternoon: An extra pawn plus a huge time advantage--even if Carlsen can just barely hold the draw, Nepomniachtchi must like his current situation. |

 | | Sally Simpson: Hi offramp:
<Both these players avoid exchanges. Real fighters.> You jinxed the game. A pair of Knights and the Queens are off. Nepo comes out of it with a passed a-pawn, the a-pawn lost him the last game, today it wins...perhaps. (cue the The Duke song for a possible pun). |

| Dec-07-21 | | Diademas: 27 c5??
Nepo throwing his bishop? |
|
| Dec-07-21 | | cehertan: Heck of a battle going on. |
|
| Dec-07-21 | | Messiah: <Diademas: 27 c5??
Nepo throwing his bishop?>
Gotta be a transmission error, even as a 2100-2200-ish patzer I see immediately that it is not good. |

| | Sally Simpson: OOPS! |
|
| Dec-07-21 | | Diademas: Sesse has -5.07 |
|
Dec-07-21
| | An Englishman: Good Afternoon: Did my previous post jinx White? Doesn't 27...c6 trap the Bb7? |
|
| Dec-07-21 | | Retireborn: Oooh. Houdini no like |
|
Dec-07-21
 | | Willber G: Nepo won't come back to the board. He's on his way to the airport. |
|
| Dec-07-21 | | mjmorri: Yikes! I could not type my c6 comment fast enough. The move was already played. |
|
| Dec-07-21 | | thebully99: Wow we have not seen that blunder in a title match in 50 years…. |
|
Dec-07-21
 | | Teyss: Oh nooooo, after ...b5, c6. Not as bad as Fischer's Bxh2 trapping the B but close. Memo for Nepo: avoid pushing Qside Ps to the other side. |
|
Dec-07-21
| | blazerdoodle: I'm nowhere near a a top class or expert and saw the Bishop being trapped - but these guys see so far ahead - nothing is as it seems. That's why I depend on the professonals all over these pages. But remember that debate over Bobby's frozen Bishop (I thought the Bxh7 comment above was about). It was analyzed to death on this site somewhere... |
