It was a positional masterclass. In the tv studio today one of the guests was Simen Agdestein, Norways first GM and his chess teacher in the short time Magnus went to high school to study chess. I too was stunned by Kd8 and later c7, but Agdestein was familiar with the plan, he mentioned a game against Johnathon Speelman. Thanks James.

Total domination by magnus carlsen . Other player never get any chance to fight. But really carlsen is BRINGING life to chess. I hope he try this in classic chess. Rapid and blitz are heavy time pressure match and people blunder unnecessarily. But liked your joke. 《This guy was once a world champion.》he won 10 times and by far the GREATEST player in chess history. Aanand kasparov karpov and fischer morphy no body has tried risky opening or sideline opening. Magnus is going where nobody has ever gone. In his own LEAGUE
