fabi played beautifully, fell under time pressure sadly. But my goodness he was offered so many draws and didnt take a single one even in time pressure. lots of guts in that play. well done both players
Incredible, wild game. One of the great things about chess is it can look like it's going to be a boring draw and then out of nowhere all hell can break loose
@Usopp8300 they're not actually premoving Because it's speed chess, the people controlling the online board have to be super fast. So, when magnus moved his queen, the guy instantly follows after. However, magnus never really released his piece, which means he can still move it, and as he changed his idea he made a new move, which the online chess guy followed again twice.
Nah dude, Fabi had endless chances to convert he just made a few boo boos. Got to have confidence in yourself to convert when winning or you'll never get anywhere
One of the most insane endgames I’ve EVER SEEN, especially with that kind of crazy time pressure! Both of them showing NERVES OF STEEL! Magnus squeezing blood from a stone again, but it does seem that Fabi blundering the pawn with check (unless it forced?! I missed it) gave Magnus the game. Ridiculous play by both players. Just incredible, nail biting stuff! Rapid chess at its finest, and the only player in the world really giving Magnus a proper run for his money on a consistent basis.
you don't think he didn't see the pawn could be taken, right? he was trying to win a tempo bringing his king over while white plays Rxh3-Rd3. At that point Fabi was playing for a draw. You see the hesitation between Kf7 and Kf6 on the last move? That was his last chance to save. He should have played Kf7 to leave the f6 square vacant for the queen so he could play Qf6+ after Re8. That was the decisive and the worst blunder. Because it's obvious white will play Re8 next. But he had so little time left.
anyone above 1500 knows that this was a conscious decision by magnus given the position. he volunteered the position therefore he gave up his queen for a rook and promotion. fabi didn't have a way to perpetually check magnus.
In top level competitive games, regardless of game type. The mental edge is real. Good players can still perform at their peak, but it takes SO MUCH MORE energy to do so. You are never at ease, it leads to mental fatigue / blunder much quicker than usual. Going against the GOAT, knowing the end game is hugely in MC’s favor would amplify this effect. MC & Garry both mentioned this edge, opponents would simplify and draw favorable positions. Opponents would be visually stressed when in obviously advantaged position. Hikaru said ad much playing against MC, whereas playing in blitz he does not feel this stress because he knows he’s level with, if not better than Mc. Props to Fabi for a great game though.
Even us non chess players could feel the pressure. Thank you to whoever said 3 extra second for a move (or check) since that last 10 seconds seemed like computer seconds.
Magnus turns almost lost games around in end games, nerves are real calm. Guess his physical strenght and fitness gives him an edge in addition to his native brilliance.
It makes me feel better that even at pro level players make 1 move blunders like Fabi at the end (and another one earlier when he gave away pawn without seeing he will be checked). I think time pressure is the main factor in this. I always feel like an idiot when I don't foresee just 1 move from opponents but seeing this I understand that this is not so uncommon especially under time pressure
Why does magnus always look like he just woke up and started playing chess immediately
my guess would be the social pressure/expectation to be the best, etc. just a little release valve to take things a little less seriously, but I'm no psychotherapist
Because he did.
He cant keep his hands away from his hair while playing, maybe he's anxious while playing.
