Remember watching this live on Twitch when Magnus first set his Twitch account up (over 2 years ago now, time flies), had to come here and remind myself of the position and moment. One of the most memorable things I've ever seen watching live chess. I think he was known (still might be) for the months following this as the guy that did this queen sac. Incredible stuff man.
You can see Magnus' amazing intuition at 1:05 when he says taking the knight "looks ridiculously dangerous" and that he'll probably lose in a few moves, even though he hasn't calculated how.
Yeah... Hes got a queen and a bishop eyeing the king already and advanced white pawns attacking his king, opening up the A file for the rook is obviously dangerous. Im only 1300 but even I have enough intuition to "sense" that.
It's not amazing intuition. It's very thematic, something you learn in your first few chess lessons in a club or with your own coach. That's also a basic idea in the Scandinavian (and other openings too).

Ok, this is the best chess video we have in youtube today... Luis Paulo Supi (he was moving the white pieces) is one of the most creative players alive. It's just an honor to see him play, even Carlsen was surprised by his moves. Just beautifull, what a match!!!
Worth mentioning that he also beat Nakamura 4x0, which led to nasty comments by Naka insinuating he was cheating like "why is he taking so long to do this obvious move, that's suspicious". Meanwhile Supi was streaming and rearranging his screen, talking about the weather or something. Carlsen's attitude of praising his opponent was much nobler. He is the best in the world but he lost, it happens.

@@victornweze7230 Cryamura literally did this when he lost to the same guy Magnus did.

He's capable of accepting a loss. That's important to understand with the cheating headlines these days. I have a feeling he knows when something is fishy.
It's rather fascinating that so many of us at first think (incorrectly) that Qb1+ could actually save the game! We struggle for minutes to see why that doesn't work, while Magnus sees in an instant that not even that can save him!
@@soulsurvivor182_9 Qb1 only delays the checkmate for a little bit. You go Qb1, white's rook takes on b1 and now you take the white Queen on c6, and white takes your pawn on c6. Now look at that position. You are still being threatened with Ra8# because the white pawn on c6 covers all escape routes for the black king. So you move your king to b8 to avoid that checkmate. White simply returns his Rook on b1 to a1 and there's no way to escape that checkmate with both white rooks still alive.
@@soulsurvivor182_9 Because after the queens come off black has to play Kb8 to avoid being immediately mated by the remaining rook on the A-file and then Rba1 renews the mate threat with no defense. You can throw the bishop in the way to survive one extra move.
The board just before and after the Qc6 move looks like a chess study, the way that the queen move leaves no escape for the black king, and how the rest of black’s other pieces are on the wrong side of the board to defend or block mate from the rook…
For the folks who don't understand why Qc6 is so powerful, and so good: If it is not found, and pretty much anything else is played then Magnus's king has Kd7 as an escape route Magnus is also up a knight here. So, Magnus up a knight is usually crushing. Here is how the game would have played out if Magnus played to mate and held it off as long as possible. Bxc6 Bxc6 the pawn now replaces the queen for removing the escape squares. Ra8 is very dangerous that is checkmate. So... Qb1+ Rxb1 Sacraficing the queen to perform suction on the rook and undouble them. Kb8 delaying mate forcing a rook double Rba1 doubling the rooks again renewing the threat. Ba3 Rxa3 the bishop jumps in the way of the rooks slowing them down, but not stopping them Now black has no more meaningful moves that can delay mate and Ra8# is coming no matter what black does. Black never has time to play any other way because mate is always a threat.
@franklinturtle9849 I'm not sure this would work. After Qb1, Rx would have no reason to go b1 and take the queen. He just ignores that and moves Ra8. Game over.
It proved his way of playing chess where he has gone down and played out almost every game possible based on each possible move in his mind. Not many have the capacity to do that. I can’t imagine how great he would be if his mind was applied to something other than chess.
Still don't understand how this has so few views...perfect commentary. Magnus was right even if he was wrong...since he said "he'd probably lose in a few moves anyways". Compute that caveat...😉
It's pretty significantly not mate-in-2. You need to know that the qg8+ line forking the king and rook doesn't save black. If it worked, you'd be trading queens and just down a knight for fun.
I'm 900 elo. I had to look at this for about three minutes to make sure there was no escape and I even tried to put the king in check before taking the pawn back...I blows my mind white saw that move in seconds and took me three minutes to calculate it all. Fair play. I just can't believe there's no escape even now I was trying to save everything 🤭
everyone is like 'engine' except the player in question is literally one of the best players in the world and smashes people over the board all the time.
He pre moved, so basically played an extra move ahead knowing that the other player will take the bishop and when he does his queen will retake but if the other player doesn’t take the bishop then this will will not be possible so he’ll have to do another move instead…sorry I probably explained that bad
Yep Carlson is basically just one move behind here. If his knight was on e7 then everything is fine. It's a very good instructive game that development is key, and if you are missing a bishop the opponent can really bring the hurt by concentrating on that colour squares.
Plugged this into the engine and in the position Magnus resigned it’s surprisingly only +1 for white at 31 move depth. After bxc6 black has Ne7, with the idea after Ra1 of Nxc6 - black manages to hang on. Magnus of all people could probably play for a draw but it’s a crazy move so you can’t fault him at all for not finding it, especially given it’s 3+0
The whole line is Qc6…bxc6 bxc6…Qb1! Rxb1…Ne7 Ra1?…Nxc6 Ra8+…Kb7 and black has to then trade his rook otherwise he loses his bishop on b4. The dust has settled, black is up a whole piece
It's not really many different ways. It's really just one way: Ra8 checkmate. Problem here is not that there is many ways how you fucked but that there are no ways how to avoid that one checkmate that is comming.
the fact that he was able to sense danger before any danger was visible and clear on the board, and that he knew that he was losing, saying "i'll probably lose in a few moves," and that after white's extraordinary awesome queen sacrifice move he calculated well into the final result, which was a complete loss for black, it speaks volumes about magnus' superior ability to play chess. he was seeing things that most gms and skilled players do not see. he knew he was dead lost. however, gm supi's play is just too advanced and mechanically driven, it looks and feels computer like moves, no human would make such precise moves, his attack was precise and direct, probably 96-98% accurate. every piece was moved to the right location, setting a terrible attack against black's king, starting with the knight sacrifice that was then followed by a queen sacrifice. opening the h file was a bad thing, carlsen knows this, he should have reminded himself that in these positions it is bad to take white's knight sacrifice offer, since white would have piled up its rooks on the h file. in the end, greed defeated carlsen thus.
He opened up the corridor for the rook after he had castled his king into the corner and none of his pieces were protecting that area, it really isn't difficult to see how that's dangerous
The queen was originally blocking the d7 square, by moving the queen, magnus's idea is to create an escape path for the king to retreat to d7 and run away from the rook threat on the A file while threating a double attack on the white bishop as well. Magnus did not expect that white can cut of the d7 escape path by sacrificing the queen c6
@@bartomiejbieniek3468na, you cant mate someone whilst you are in check. You have to take the queen sac and then bring your rook back to the first rank.
The 2 rooks in the upper right corner at 2:09 in the video will cause checkmate doesn't matter what move he does next. If Carlsen takes the queen with the pawn the other pawn takes his pawn and will still block all the squares for the king to escape when the rook checks him. The 2 rooks also protect each other. Hopefully this explains it and doesn't make it more confusing somehow. :)
black pawn takes queen, then white pawn takes that black pawn (cutting off the king’s escape routes), doesnt matter what black does at that point because the very next white move will be moving the rook down into checkmate because the king cant escape because of that pawn
queen g8 puts other king in check. if white takes with castle, king g1 protects against mate. if white moves king queen takes h7, castle takes h7, king g1? doesn't seem like mate
@@Fatb0ybadb0y it is. After white takes queen with rook (castle), if black plays king g1, white puts the rook on a1 again, and theres nothing u can do to stop mate
How is this actually over? If the black Queen moves from F5 to B1 with a check then has to be taken by Rook to B1... and then black pawn on A7 takes the white queen on C6 which is recaptured by white pawan on B5 to C6.. and black king moves to B8... Doesn't this save the game? Am I missing something?
Im kind of surprised Magnus fell for this. He opened up the A file willingly, allows for double rooks on this file, moves his queen away despite advanced pawns and queen pointed at crucial square in front of king… idk this move seemed a bit obvious compared to other queen sacs and I really feel like he should’ve seen this
Easy to say obvious when you’ve seen it. Very few would have seen a move like that in the game. Think it’s an incredible move. Supposedly even Stockfish doesn’t see it.
@@slapmyfunkybass I would’ve seen it though because I noticed it happening like 5 moves ahead of that. Like I said, this stupid mate was only possible because Magnus allowed his position to become so terrible. Considering he’s the most amazing player of all time I found that surprising.
@@slapmyfunkybass you have a point there, but considering the open file with doubled rooks on it with advanced pawns and bad king position, I don’t think it’s certain I wouldn’t have noticed. I have done similar queen sacs before since I play Pirc defense a lot, so I think I would have a special eye out for the possibility. Which is why I imagine the GOAT would be more aware of

the fact that he was able to sense danger before any danger was visible and clear on the board, and that he knew that he was losing, saying "i'll probably lose in a few moves," and that after white's extraordinary awesome queen sacrifice move he calculated well into the final result, which was a complete loss for black, it speaks volumes about magnus' superior ability to play chess. he was seeing things that most gms and skilled players do not see. he knew he was dead lost. however, gm supi's play is just too advanced and mechanically driven, it looks and feels computer like moves, no human would make such precise moves, his attack was precise and direct, probably 96-98% accurate. every piece was moved to the right location, setting a terrible attack against black's king, starting with the knight sacrifice that was then followed by a queen sacrifice. opening the h file was a bad thing, carlsen knows this, he should have reminded himself that in these positions it is bad to take white's knight sacrifice offer, since white would have piled up its rooks on the h file. in the end, greed defeated carlsen thus.
There was plenty of danger. Most of whites pieces were aiming toward the king
He opened up the corridor for the rook after he had castled his king into the corner and none of his pieces were protecting that area, it really isn't difficult to see how that's dangerous
The losing move is Qf7, what was the Magnus's plan behind it?
Just threating queen trade, if bishop moves. Knight up then.
the plan was to trade pieces ofc. Magnus was a knight up and therefor tried to simplify as much as possible.
The queen was originally blocking the d7 square, by moving the queen, magnus's idea is to create an escape path for the king to retreat to d7 and run away from the rook threat on the A file while threating a double attack on the white bishop as well. Magnus did not expect that white can cut of the d7 escape path by sacrificing the queen c6
Thats our best player here in brazil: supi!
Magnus saw that there's no escape within milliseconds after the opponent played the move. How? Just how?
Training. Years of superhuman training level!
Dang !!!😂😂😂
That GM Supi turned into an ALIEN !!!🤣🤣🤣
And Magnus turned into a mere Mortal Amateur!🤣🤣🤣
É a locomotiva Supi 🚂
"magnesium calcium"
Seems we're the only ones that noticed that 😂
If B7 x QC6, then B5xC6... Game over
Qb1 check breaks the rooks
@@landen99it doesn't matter, since next move Ra8 is mate anyway, no matter what black does
@@landen99you take with rook then move it back, mate is still inevitable
@@bartomiejbieniek3468na, you cant mate someone whilst you are in check. You have to take the queen sac and then bring your rook back to the first rank.
A file*
Can someone point out how this is mate? I really want to see it too
sure, If B7 x QC6, then B5xC6... Game over
The 2 rooks in the upper right corner at 2:09 in the video will cause checkmate doesn't matter what move he does next.
If Carlsen takes the queen with the pawn the other pawn takes his pawn and will still block all the squares for the king to escape when the rook checks him.
The 2 rooks also protect each other.
Hopefully this explains it and doesn't make it more confusing somehow. :)
Thx guys, yeah i see it now
Qb1 is playable right?
@@kiriyn662 Yea, I think you're right! I didn't see that move.
He needs a HP/low cut filter on that mic
Single best move Magnus has ever endured at online blitz.
Oooof!
Hands up to all who knows how to play and don't understand why simply eating the queen wouldn't not solve the guy's problem😢
Because pawn recaptures removing the kings escape square on d7 and nothing black can do to stop Ra1# the next turn
Even a STUPID BEGINNER should know a "mating net", where you sacrifice a piece (even a queen) to CUT OFF the king's escape routes and to mate him.
@@TheRomanianWolf is just mad that he can’t figure it out either
black pawn takes queen, then white pawn takes that black pawn (cutting off the king’s escape routes), doesnt matter what black does at that point because the very next white move will be moving the rook down into checkmate because the king cant escape because of that pawn
@@ivanebijay2401 can't you just write the moves? bxc6 bxc6 and Ra8 mate is next.
Video desciption:
"GM Supi from Brazil sacrificed the queen to beat Magnesium Calcium"
Lol
mate: f6, pawn takes f6, whatever black does doesnt matter anymore because his king is trapped and rook h8 is mate
queen g8 puts other king in check. if white takes with castle, king g1 protects against mate. if white moves king queen takes h7, castle takes h7, king g1? doesn't seem like mate
@@Fatb0ybadb0y it is. After white takes queen with rook (castle), if black plays king g1, white puts the rook on a1 again, and theres nothing u can do to stop mate
White taking on c6 in all universes is unstoppable.
I doubt that his opponent is taking engine help
Accept his smart
c4 by spagoat is losing so you are wrong
Plot twist* he mouse slipped
there was a clock on the wall
Magnus lost because he was complacent. He said “ah whatever” and took the knight. He couldn’t be bothered to think too much about the consequences.
You tell em !
How is this actually over?
If the black Queen moves from F5 to B1 with a check then has to be taken by Rook to B1... and then black pawn on A7 takes the white queen on C6 which is recaptured by white pawan on B5 to C6.. and black king moves to B8... Doesn't this save the game? Am I missing something?
Qb1 ; Rxb1 ; Kb8 ; Ra1 and you still get mated
@@Coat0 How so??.. coz A8 is safe with the king moving to B8.. I still don't see it!! sorry if this is a really dumb question..
@@Coat0 Ooh.. I see what you're saying.. but the second move order isn't kb8... the black pawn takes the queen on A7..
@@SubangRai Then the rook comes back on A1
@@SubangRai They meant Rba1, not Raa1; then one rook guards the other on a8 and there's no defense except throwing away the bishop to interpose.
Wow... queen with pawn
So pre-moving Qxd5 was a _huge_ blunder, right? Move 2, right?
He had.a pawn there. (capturing your own pieces is generally a safe premove)
Im kind of surprised Magnus fell for this. He opened up the A file willingly, allows for double rooks on this file, moves his queen away despite advanced pawns and queen pointed at crucial square in front of king… idk this move seemed a bit obvious compared to other queen sacs and I really feel like he should’ve seen this
Easy to say obvious when you’ve seen it. Very few would have seen a move like that in the game. Think it’s an incredible move. Supposedly even Stockfish doesn’t see it.
@@slapmyfunkybass I would’ve seen it though because I noticed it happening like 5 moves ahead of that. Like I said, this stupid mate was only possible because Magnus allowed his position to become so terrible. Considering he’s the most amazing player of all time I found that surprising.
@@alekob.3791 The video’s quite literally called insane queen sac so you’re looking for it, you wouldn’t have noticed in a normal game.
@@slapmyfunkybass you have a point there, but considering the open file with doubled rooks on it with advanced pawns and bad king position, I don’t think it’s certain I wouldn’t have noticed. I have done similar queen sacs before since I play Pirc defense a lot, so I think I would have a special eye out for the possibility. Which is why I imagine the GOAT would be more aware of
@@alekob.3791 when playing online chess, players experiment stuff... for training purposes. Magnus here wanted to train, that's why he opened that column (which he wouldn't have EVER do it in a real OTB game).
After white Qc6, why can't magnus play:
Qb1+
If Rb1, b7xc6, b5xc6, Kb8 no checkmate
If Qh2/Bc1, Qxa2, Rxa2, b7xc6, b5xc6 no checkmate
I believe in your first scenario, White just resets with Ra1, and Black can't prevent the coming Ra8.
I'm not sure I understand your second scenario
After Kb8, white has Rba1, and (insert any move for black), then Ra8# checkmate
@@Adventurer-te8fl lol Rba1? Hahaha King will just take the rook lol
After Kb8, white simply moves the rook back to where it was before taking the queen: Rba1 and black has no moves to prevent Ra8#.
@@trailerrecapped6720 learn your chess notation cus u have no idea
Magnus absolutely got got all over his back
Hikaru would: okay this dude got really lucky, so lucky chat, he's just lucky, chat
“I think I’m doing fairly well”…well…
Good to know he's still human.
Why can’t you move the king one space to the right?
Imagina hacerle eso a carlsen y que encima te elogie ! Un sueño!!!
Beautiful
Qb1 rook takes queen pawn takes queen pawn takes pawn and kb8?
Oh but rh1 again and now black has no defense correct me if im wrong
