 | | OhioChessFan: In my opinion, Black sacrificed 8 pawns and 7 pieces to gain the inititiave here. |

 | | chessgames.com: We would like to thank everybody for coming by and joining us today. Hope to see you tomorrow! |
|
Jul-26-06 | | dabearsrock1010: even though black has the opposition, white can outflank the black king...i like whites position better at the end |
|
Jul-26-06 | | Dres1: I think its beautiful when the game ends with just the kings left. Somehow symbolic or somethin |
|
Jul-26-06 | | Theologue: They should do a pirouette around the centre.. |
|
Jul-26-06 | | Jack Kerouac: Now it's WWF time! Get it on boys! |

 | | tpstar: What a great game! Mad props to Young MC for essaying the Benko Gambit at the elite level. Raise your hand if you would have thrown in 67 ... c1=Q+ 68. Kxc1 Kxf5 1/2-1/2 here. |

 | | Sneaky: thanks CG! You're the greatest! Now I've got a certain Chessbookie I must visit... :-D |
|
Jul-26-06 | | spirit: these kids are cyborgs...played it down to k and k...looks more like a Rybka vs hydra game! |
|
Jul-26-06 | | firebyrd: < 67 ... c1=Q+ > 67 ... c1=B+ 1/2-1/2 is even cooler ending the game right away on insufficient material, and allows Carlsen to tease Radjabov if he should bother to take the bishop 68. KxB after the game had ended |
|
Jul-26-06 | | Ezzy: Great battle guys, a fantastic exciting game. Most enjoyable!! |
|
Jul-26-06 | | spirit: <virginmind> em...ok...u win! |
|
Jul-26-06 | | GiorgioCappelletti: Please someone update Carlsen elo!! |
|
Jul-26-06 | | GiorgioCappelletti: does chessgames.com know Carlsen's elo after this game? |
|
Jul-26-06 | | spirit: computers usually play to king vs king,they dont agree to draw until they're absolutely clueless...even then comps like hydra and shredder will still crunch away with super BRUTE force...just dancing their kings in an eternal super beautiful walz... |
|
Jul-26-06 | | drnooo: Be very interesting if these two guys would agree to say a ten, twenty blitz match: Carlsen does play at Playchess in the rapids from time to time: would be nothing for them to try some quickies there, say twenty just for amusement. They would not even have to trot out their best ideas, just swap some blows a la Tal in weird positions. Even Fischer random. |
|
Jul-26-06 | | EeEk: Magnus should be 2694 now, with these 3 games from Biel included. |
|
Jul-26-06 | | ianD: Carlsen well done you pressed hard for the win.
Chessgames...you are now my favourite chess website well done! |
|
Jul-26-06 | | samikd: even though material is even in the final position, Black's King is closer to the centre...so he has an advantage |
|
Jul-26-06 | | peacock: i agree |
|
Jul-26-06 | | madlydeeply: in my HUMBLE opinion, I think that white had a winning endgame after black's 27th move, and if Radjabov couldn't bring home the point, then he has no business considering himself World Champion caliber. THe best player in the world wouldn't have blown that position. I can't wait to see him get schooled, by Kramnik or Topalov or whomever when his time comes. |
|
Jul-26-06 | | madlydeeply: Lets make a list of the WOrld Champions and see who could bring home a pawn up endgame with identical minor pieces... Fischer...yes.
Karpov...yes.
Kramnik...yes.
Kasparov...yes.
Smyslov...yup.
Botvinnik...mmhmmm.
etc.
|
|
Jul-26-06 | | KingG: Shame Kasparov couldn't use his world championship level endgame skills to beat the rubbish endgame player in this game : Radjabov vs Kasparov, 2004 |
|
Jul-26-06 | | Hesam7: 39. Na3 looks better than 39. b4. My engine gives the following line: 39. Na3 Ke5 40. Nb5 Nf6 41. Naxc3 Nh5 42. Ne4 Bd5 43. Na3 Bxe4 44. Nc4 Ke6 45. fxe4 Nxg3 46. Kd2 Be5 47. a4 Bf4 48. Kc3 Nh1 49. a5 Nf2 50. a6 Bb8 51. Ne3 Nxh3 52. Bc4 Kd7 53. Bb5 Ke6 (eval : +1.37) Depth: 24
