    In the second game, instead of sacrificing his own queen, Magnus chose to sacrifice his opponent's queen. This might be a more sound strategy going forward.

    Magnus proving that you can play the Benoni at top level, then proving that you cannot play the Benoni at top level. Very creative plan from Rapport handled well by Magnus. Very good commentary well handled by you. Thanks James.

      There actually has been debate over where Benoni opening got it’s name seems a fella named Aaron Reinganum wrote extensively about the opening it was said he suffered from depression and devoting his time to studying the opening helped alleviate his melancholy there’s also the Biblical reference where Sarah had a baby named Benoni right before she passed away “Son of my Sorrow “ the father renamed the baby Benjamin and than it was also said it was named after a player in the 19th century named Benoni

    I believe you have at least 20 videos out where Magnus plays a garbage opening to toy with his opponents and leave known theory 😉

    I don't understand White's play in this game. Why not go for 6. e4 g6 7. f4 which is considered the main reason why the Benoni is suspicious? And why throw away all the extra pawns?

    I hate this "magnus blunders" "magnus misses". No he didnt. Because no one is a top level engine. He didnt miss sh**. He calculates moves based on what the HUMAN will play. Which makes him the best. These videos are kinda trash because no one is thinking 1,563 moves in advance. All this makes magnus look like he misses so much stuff and hikaru said something similar which is a joke because hikaru loses every final. Magnus forces mistakes or irregular plays because he is the GOAT and puts pressures on weird situation that NO ONE sees until they ask a top level engine. Tbf.... if it takes a top level engine to spot mistakes and nobody else in the entire world, im pretty sure he does an amazing job. Theres a reason no one can beat him
