Elite players Viswanathan Anand and Vassily Ivanchuk battle it out in the final with a 5 minute blitz game of chess. Craziness ensues.
The epic game occurred during the 1994 Intel grand Prix in London.

Chances are you arent a grandmaster... Neither am I. The fact that he missed it and that he is a GM, that makes it even MORE devastating than you or I missing it. Has my point been made or do I need more explanation?

6:50 it's decisive. Kd1 was Anand's biggest mistake in this game, he stepped in to a forced mate in 6. Just as the commentator says "if he (Anand) goes to the wrong square it is check mate". Anand should have played Rc3 instead.

Surely Anand's move at 7:36 where he basically retreated his king straight into an imminent check mate position, is equally if not more of a blind-sighted blunder than Ivanchuk's subsequent error? Unless there was no safer move for him to make in that situation? I don't see anyone talking about that

@Prasen1729 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah he placed his king in a checkmate position, usually king is not taken at a corner of the board to avoid checkmate. It was a blunder and so he laughs that Ivanchuk made a bigger blunder.

@danielgteaching1377 3 жыл бұрын

Stockfish says it's a mate in 3 at best for White. So Anand didn't make much of an error, his position was completely lost already. www.chessgames.com/perl/analysis?fen=6k1/pb3pp1/4p3/1p2N1PQ/4q3/1N5R/1Pr2K1P/7R+w+-+-&move=28.5

Only thing I can think of is that as White was already doubled on the h-file, maybe the h-file "felt" open to him, so he didn't think the R/h1 was en prise. Crazy game.

There does seem to be a big emphasis on time factor in chess, which I personally find very disappointing. Yeah I get that fast thinking is a skill in itself, but removing time from the equation allows a purer form of the game to ensue by affording both opponents ample opportunity to think and strategize before playing their next move

For sure Ivanchuk saw through the pawn on h2. Remove the h-pawn and there is your answer! He must have thought Qg2 Ke1. And never noticing that the rook h1 is indeed en prise! The battery with RpRQ on a half open h-file is most unusual. Note that the rooks are taller and a pawn can be easily overlooked. Who knows what Vasily must have thought after the game!

If u guys look closely, the reason anand dint checkmate is ivanchuk was checking him continuously. Both the players saw the checkmate. Thats y anand moved his rook rt behind the queen to cover it and ivanchuk was checking him to avoid the checkmate. Seems like a normal play to me.
