 | | beenthere240: I think I called it on move 24. |
|
Mar-24-18 | | OrangeTulip: Could it be nerves that both Caruana and Shak throw away their chances? |
|
Mar-24-18 | | Absentee: I don't know about Mamedyarov, but Caruana never seemed to be the type to buckle under pressure. |
|
Mar-24-18 | | Marmot PFL: probably black did not expect the exchange sacrifice and couldn't find a good defense. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbM... I will have to find the interview video. |

 | | hoodrobin: A rematch C vs K would be really boring, so go Caruana! (my opinion, just a matter of sympathy). |
|
Mar-24-18 | | MrQuinn: And Caruana is done. Fade complete. |
|
Mar-24-18 | | botvinnik64: Caruana is 25 as is Ding. Girl is 23, So is 24 and Yu Yangyi 23. Those are some of the names you'll see at the next Candidates, I think. |

 | | technical draw: <eyalbid> referenced this comment that I made in 2006! I've been here too long: Karpov vs Unzicker, 1974 |
|
Mar-24-18 | | cormier: 23...g5 ? propably the losing move |
|
Mar-24-18 | | Immortal Gambit: Compare move 39 here with move 40 in Karjakin vs Caruana, 2016 See the resemblance? |
|
Mar-24-18 | | The Kings Domain: Impressive rook sacrifice and game by Karjakin. Nice to see the Petroff in action in a top-notch tournament (albeit unsuccessful with this one). |
|
Mar-24-18 | | Petrosianic: It wasn't a Rook sacrifice, it was an Exchange sacrifice. |

|
Mar-25-18 | | DansChessLounge: I'm impressed at how Karjakin went for the exchange sac in order to play a more ambitious position. Bravo!!! For a recap of the game check out the Youtube video ---> https://youtu.be/b28anOM3ixk |

Mar-26-18 | | Ulhumbrus: 10 a3 moves a pawn and invites the pawn attack ...b4. 10...h6 moves a pawn. One alternative is 10...Rb8 preparing the pawn attack ...b5, ...a5, and ...b4. If Karjakin has prepared this and found out what can happen beforehand, Caruana will have to prepare it and find out what can happen beforehand as well. Another alternative is 10...0-0-0.
If after 13...c5 the d pawn is going to become a target one alternative is 13...Qa4 followed by 14...0-0-0 |

 | | keypusher: <ulhumbrus> <10...h6 moves a pawn. > Deep. |
|
Mar-28-18 | | WorstPlayerEver: <Ha! There's the Sergey pic on the Dancing Rook!> <chancho>
That was maybe too much of a good thing! When Karjakin -finally- spotted their dancing Rook, it did something to them ;) |
