World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen of Norway defends his title against challenger Ian Nepomniachtchi of Russia in Game 10 of the 2021 World Chess Championship match that is being held in Dubai. It's a best of 14 games where the first player to earn 7.5 points earns the lion's share (60%) of a $2.24 million prize pool, and the title of "World Chess Champion". We follow game 4 with another Petroff’s Defense until Carlsen deviates on move 4. The position that arises is one we observed in Game 6 of the 2018 World Chess Championship match between Carlsen and Caruana. That game saw a string of 10 consecutive knight moves early on. In the featured game Nepomniachtchi opts to prevent white’s 7th move (Nd5) by withdrawing his knight back to f6.

I’ve been wondering if Carlsen is using the clock in these games almost as a psychological play. He spent almost an hour in long thinks throughout this game but largely played moves that a super GM would call out instantly. I feel like he’s using it to bait Nepo. I’m sure he’s using the time very well, calculating exact moves - but I feel like he’s taking his time strategically to increase the tension and the perception that he has some deeper plans.

@threethrushes 2 жыл бұрын

Clock as a weapon, for sure.

@Currywurst4444 2 жыл бұрын

I dont think thats really the case. Its partly just preference and maybe Carlsen just doesnt play perfectly optimal because he feels more comfortable. He might have a bit better sense if a position if about to simplify so he spends more of his time early.

@brazen_helm 2 жыл бұрын

He already knows when he starts thinking that the move is a fine one. But if the position is an easy draw, and you still have an hour on the clock, why not use 40 minutes of that time trying to find if there's a sneaky way you might squeeze out a win?

Magnus mentioned in one of the press conferences that tiring out Nepo was part of his strategy. I don't think he meant that he's just sitting there killing clock time. But it's obvious that he will sometimes prolong games even when there is no clear advantage to play for, just to give his opponent more opportunities to make mistakes.

I always resist seeing the match on other channels because your telling of the story is always more insightful. Constructive criticism, a few times I wasn't 100% on whether you were talking about hypothetical moves or gone back to the game. Maybe just me. I've had this idea of switching between to and from a different board style for potential moves.

Were it a Sicillian, the game would be more imbalanced with more chances for Ian. This e4 e5 is so dry, they just go for exchanges and agree to a draw. That's in part why their games are so precise. There isn't even to many ways to go wrong.

Nope, it's first to 7 and a half points. So Nepo can't lose the next one. He can afford 1 more draw but then he has to win all the other games for them to be tied at the end. Not impossible, but not very probable.

If I at any point make it sound like chess players of today aren't any good, then I apologize. Nepo got to where he is now because he won the Candidates' Tournament. (I do question the validity of the Candidates' Tournament at this point and suggest that we re-evaluate how we should determine a World Chess Champion.) However, if you are on a stage like the FIDE World Chess Championship Match, treat it as such. Except for Game 6, the only bright spot, Nepo has been playing like he doesn't really want to be there. He's not playing with the right mindset, and he tried to use a strategy that was destined to fail. If you are playing to win, act like it. Settling for a dozen or so draws and "hoping" someone like Magnus Carlsen stumbles is a ridiculous way to think. This is my point; Nepo doesn't quite understand the magnitude of this event. He's too nice of a player to become World Champion material. Hopefully in time that changes for him, but for now, no. If Nepo showed even a small fraction of the effort that he put into Game 6 of this match into every other game, we could be talking about a much different match now. Magnus Carlsen is doing what he needs to do as the World Champion. Playing a mindgame of "Let's Draw until you blink" will never work with someone like Magnus. You play to win. I would rather get blown out 8 points to 0 by Magnus and at least try to push his buttons on a psychological level similar to how Game 6 went, than to play "Not To Lose" Chess and then get steamrolled. Anyone can reply by saying "Steven, you're wrong, and here's why" and that's fine. Notice that I don't reply back.

@star-iv 2 жыл бұрын

I'm not sure if Ian is hoping for Magnus to make a mistake. Chess is a drawish game at the highest level. To win, players must create imbalance in the position that they can capitalize on. But, if a player forces things or takes too much risk, they can end up in a lost position, which significantly decreases the chance that the player can win the match. I just thought that it was disappointing that Ian blundered in games 8 and 9. If he were only a point behind, maybe he could have found a position to press and tie up the match
