| May-30-18 | | rogge: Good find! |
|
| May-30-18 | | dhotts: <Ulhumbrus> Aronian was in time trouble towards the end, which might explain 27...Nf6 instead of 27...Qf6. MC's creative 20th move Re3, was not shown as that good by the engines, but it certainly opened up White's attacking possibilities while increasing his space...I thought 20.Re3 deserved an "!", as it threw a wrench into a stalled spinning position. |
|
| May-30-18 | | lentil: Carlsen is first and foremost, a stupendous tactician. (I lift this quote from Spassky, who was referring to Petrosian). This ability may not be obvious because he just seems to be squeezing positionally (tickle the P/c7, then after .. Ne8, rule out the freeing move 22 ...Qf6) (Nimzovich would be proud!) These are all strategic maneuvers that are backed up by tactics. |
|
| May-30-18 | | technical draw: I don't see an easy game for Carlsen after black plays 31..Qg5. |

|
| May-30-18 | | lentil: <td>: W just plays Qxe4 and remains two pawns up. |
|
| May-30-18 | | ChessHigherCat: <td> According zibbit's video (see above), if 31...Qg6 32. QxN and white is two pawns up "which is more than enough for a world champion" |

| May-30-18 | | Jambow: <For once Carlsen wins with the queens on the board.> And the game wasn'
t the typical Carlsen grind either. Nice game by Magnus. I think when he was not grinding out wins from equal positions he seemed to be trying to broaden his game. I think he fell short vs Karjakin in their match but maybe we just saw some fruits of his labor here. I always felt Magnus was only ever on par with the elite in complex tactical games if not minutely inferior, but was so superior in the end game that is what explained the disparity in results and hence ELO. If he has even a small tactical advantage in the complex middle game against someone like Caruana he would not be defeatable by the current carbon field. A few games doesn't tell the story but there is a hint here that it could be the case. Might just be in great form we will see. Maybe he will start winning everything he enters again??? Go Nakamura!!! |
|
| May-30-18 | | Olsonist: 2 1/2 out of 3 and the rest of the field hasn't won anything. The fear might start setting in at this point. |
|
| May-30-18 | | beenthere240: Aronian certainly picked a dramatic way to lose. |
|
| May-30-18 | | BOSTER: This is how Aronian lost the game.Have a look. His black bishop made 4 moves in the opening Bf8-Be7-Bf6-Bg5 and after this he exchanged this bishop for white bishop with Bxc1 who even did not move before,losing another tempo Rxc1.
Many games now have the characteristics after exchange black bishops in the early opening.
This is completely new games.You have to play hundred such pos to feel this. Many players have no such feeling |
|
| May-30-18 | | lentil: 27. ... Qf6 "looks" nice, but after 28. Qd2, W has the nasty threat 28. Rf3. |
|
| May-30-18 | | thegoodanarchist: Blame it on Rio. |
|
| May-31-18 | | JPi: <keypuscher> great rediscover! I remember Carlsen saying he was very impressed by Fischer' chess of the 1970'... Nearly 50 years ago! |

 | | perfidious: <Diademas>, in Aronian's case at least, the timing proved most unfortunate. Hope yours was a bit better. |

Many players have no such feeling> This suggests that 14...Bg5 is an error. However White threatens Ne4 which means that Black is in some trouble already. Consider this question: What is the relationship between White's greater space and the e file? One answer suggested by Carlsen's move Qc4 in the game is that White's queen can attack the queen side and this as well as Black's lack of space makes it difficult for Black's queen to make way for Black's queen's rook. This suggests that Carlsen made his greater space count to as to gain control of the e file. It suggests also that Black has to play more carefully and exactly in order to catch up in development. |

 | | Diademas: <perfidious> When it comes to cold Rosé there is no such thing as bad timing.
With the possible exception of trying to fence off the WC or doing surgery https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/783... |

| May-31-18 | | technical draw: <<td>: W just plays Qxe4 and remains two pawns up.> Thanks for responding <lentil> and <OCF>. Of course I saw 24.Qxe4, I was questioning the "easy" part of the statement. Being 2 pawns up does not, necessarily, mean an "easy" endgame. |

| | Diademas: <<technical draw: >Being 2 pawns up does not, necessarily, mean an "easy" endgame.>
Not for the two of us, but playing against Mr. Carlsen it seams pretty resignable. |
|
| May-31-18 | | beenthere240: I like 11. d5, grabbing space. The lazy c3 leads nowhere. |
|
| May-31-18 | | technical draw: <Diademas><Not for the two of us, but playing against Mr. Carlsen it seams pretty resignable.> Lol! You're right. In fact for me being two pawns UP against GM Carlsen is resignable! |
|
| May-31-18 | | BOSTER: <Ulhumbrus>:<e file>. No doubt that move 17.Re1 <outflankig> black queen on d8 was maybe the key, which divided west and east like Germany many years ago. To prove <my> theory I want to inspire you by travelling by black knight.Ng8-Nf6-Nxe4-Nd6-Nf5-Ng7-Ne8-Ng7 -Ne8 -Nf6-Ne4. |
