I just watched the end live. What a way to finish the match. Brilliant execution by Magnus.

Nice finish to a predictable match.

No computer needed to calculate this one.

But the beauty is that MC saw the whole thing before reaching this position. There were other "safe" alternatives (a draw would have been enough), but he went for the jugular with a couple of minutes on the clock.AdminX wrote:Nice finish to a predictable match.

(Personally, I had no clue how to do it. But, I'm not such a good player.)
Deasil is the right way to go.
Re: WCC 2016 thread
Karjakin said in Press Conference that he was not in good shape last day.
Maybe that's why he was thinking that long during these rapid games ?

Not sure he saw "the whole thing", as in.. the mate-in-12 or so if black plays Bf8 instead of Kh7 😆michiguel wrote:
