| Jan-24-12 | | Fanques Fair: After 19 - ... , d3 ! , it seems White is lost, because 20 - Bxa8 , Qd4 + , 21- Kh1 , d2 , and now if 22 - Bc6 , dxe1+ 23 - Qxe1, Rc8 , followed by Qxf4 , while 22-Rxc5 , dxe1+ , 23- Qxe1 , Qxc5 and the exchange decides in Black's favor...maybe White´s best chance was 20 - Rxc5,Qd4 + , 21- Kh1 , Qxc5 , 22- Bxa8, Rxa8 and the powerful d3 pawn is still alive ... or , in this last line, 22- Qxd3 , Qxd3 23- Bxd3, with a pawn for the exchange. |

| Jan-24-12 | | galdur: 17.f4 instead of the natural Nb5 in this position seemed to start white´s troubles, from which he couldn´t recover. Nice win by Karjakin. click for larger view |
 |
| Jan-24-12 | | Penguincw: Karjakin knows how to use the king in the endgame. Carlsen's king is hiding. |
 |
| Jan-24-12 | | tonsillolith: Wow, I didn't know Carlsen sucked so bad. |

 | | tamar: 37 Re4 was a better try. Karjakin said in the interview that he was going to play 37...Nf3+ 38 gxf3 Qd6+ 39 Kg2 Qxd3
but after 40 Qb4 the win is still hard to convert. |

Suppose Black continues <40...Rf5>. White can (again) force a trade of Queens, probably with <41.Qd4+> (and not Qc3+), but the rook endgame looks hard to hold. Not only has White a pawn deficit, but his remaining pawns are weaker than those of Black. |

Black can play ...Qxb2 instead, though after 25.e6 white has a bit of activity. Instead 23...Nd3 aiming at f2 and f4 looks strong. |

 | | FSR: Wow, what a crush! Carlsen is the victim of a "karjakin." |
 |

 | | HeMateMe: Nice squeeze. Even the MC can lose.
What happens if MC doesn't play 28. Bxd3? Black just swings the knight over to e4, forcing a trade for the Bishop, then maybe Q-e4-e2, swapping Queens and bringing the passed pawn to the 2nd rank? |

| Jan-25-12 | | solskytz: I'm sure Karjakin feels great right now - much like Reti in New York 1924 |

 | | brankat: <solskytz> <I'm sure Karjakin feels great right now - much like Reti in New York 1924> Carlsen did lose a few games in last ten years though :-) |

It looks like 17.f4 was a loose move. I wonder if he played it quickly? I'm guessing White was expecting 19...Nxe4 as 19...d3 was a pretty brutal interpolation. |

| Jan-25-12 | | ikipemiko: <HeMateMe: ...What happens if MC doesn't play 28. Bxd3? > His bishop is hanging, also Ne4 is really powerful - attack to the king (via f2), attacking the queen, attacking the rook on c3... a lot of winning ways. B:d3 seems only move but Carlsen is maybe dead lost at that point. |

For example after 41 Qd4+ Qxd4 42 Rxd4 Rc5 45 b3 axb3 46 Kg3 Kf6 47 Rb4 Ke5 48 Rxb3 Kd4 49 Rb4+ Kc3 the following position arises where I would not know how to win as Black.  click for larger view |

| Dec-17-12 | | iking: <tonsillolith: Wow, I didn't know Carlsen sucked so bad.> he is not invincible .... but he is the reigning ELO topnotcher right now, above all the pampered goldfish in the aquarium. Carlsen is the best!!! |
