Kaidanov asked Magnus if he could keep a copy of Magnus's handwritten scoresheet. So sweet :)

@lollycopter 6 ай бұрын

Two copies are made and the player keeps their yellow sheet. I think Kaidanov was offering Carlsen a copy of his sheet but Carlsen declined because there's no need for him to cross-check from Kaidanov's notation. Notice how Kaidanov ends up with 3 sheets - two with his handwriting, and one with Carlsen's.

@@lollycopter no he ended up with 3 sheets because you see him there asking for magnus' pink sheet. you can clearly tell that from the players' interaction as well as how the two sheets of each player were not separated until then, so those two were both of magnus' writing.

How wonderful to see that side of Magnus - I have noticed over the years that many many players when they finish a game just stand and walk away. More often than not Magnus is willing to explain the tactics and do a short analysis of the position with his opponent. Truly a great ambassador for the sport.

This is also because his opponent did a wonderful game. Kaidanov showed respect for Magnus before the game, and did a great job against Magnus's London System at 64 years old. It was a very tied game until minute 12:49. Surely was a very interesting game for Magnus

Its so nice, that in the end ( 17:06 ) Kaidanov asks for the Magnus' scoresheet, i guess that's a great treasure to have.... this shows how prestigious chess players feel when they play Magnus. (people rarely get his autograph...but now he has 40 moves written by him along with an autograph.)

@lollycopter 6 ай бұрын

No I don't think that's what happened. Each scoresheet has two carbon copies underneath and both players normally collect one yellow and one purple sheet each. In this case, Kaidanov ended up with 3 copies because Magnus declined Kaidanov's purple copy. You can see Magnus pockets his yellow sheet whereas Kaidanov keeps two purples and one yellow.

In Germany it´s the same. You stand up to shake hands. Not necessary completly, especially if you were sitting at a table, but you at least do a move as like you would stand up.

@dowaliby1 6 ай бұрын

I was taught the same, and to make the handshake rather firm, not limp. Also to look the other person in the eye. So many times I have shaken hands with people in my life, it was like grabbing a dead fish. Most of the handshaking I have seen in chess matches, even among the top level players, is nothing more than a meaningless token before the game and a begrudging gesture afterwards.

@markpodlesak7204 4 ай бұрын

A pawn is usually better towards the centre. But there is huge pressure on the Bishop on c6 which eventually loses material after Ra6 in reply to the move axb6. Very complicated! Even if I couldn't see it all I would realise it is with the pawn you take with.
