  • the egtb shows a draw in many KR vs KRB position, but is very hard to find in a blitz.

  • Amazing ending. I thought it was a draw

  • Genius...

  • at 3:47 if 1.Be5 Ra7 2.Rh8+ Rh7 3.Bf4+!! Kh5 4.Rxh7#

  • @zigglersuck Bf4?? Kg7 ?!?!

  • Carlsen was kinda lost at the beginning of the vid. But somehow managed to win this difficult endgame. WOW! Svidler's face at the end says it all.

  • 3:35 didnt magnus have a checkmate? with Rh2?

  • @Melancolia793 no. svidler could just play rh4 and block. they could trade rooks and then the situation is pretty much the same...

  • @monarchSYNCHRO oh yea im dumb

  • @Melancolia793 ...Rh4

  • @cramie10 ...

  • magnus best today

  • To win that endgame in blitz is amazing! Many GMs can't pull this win off in normal time controls.

  • Carlsen's endgame is unbelievably strong.

  • at 1:12 the move Nf5 was a blunder which wasnt exposed. Carlson should have played 1. ...Rf6+! 2. Kf7 Rxf5 winning the Knight and the game

  • @McRoos Good point. You can see Svidler hesitating before hitting the clock, like realizing there was nothing he could do as he had already released the knight.

  • @McRoos "Carlson should have played" The name is Carlsen. And have you not considered HE wanted it that way?

  • @carlosvbm Carlsen didn't play the best move Rf6+ (and it is by far the best move : taking a knight without giving up anything, be it activity or material...), don't try to get fancy and divinize him... everybody makes mistakes in blitz games.

  • @AnomiEj That's why it's so fun to watch/play : mistakes ^^

  • there was a fork with bishop that carlsen did not Bf6+ who get it ??? at 2:37

  • @ayachiaymen bishop is pinned
