Is it possible to win a game without any preparation at this level?
So looking forward to the Fisher Random tournament!
Daniel never disappoints. Pure class.
p.s. I'm a happy camper now that your Kalashnikov book arrived in my mailbox. Cheers from Scotland!
Bravo, very nice, i like this game! Thanks for the analysis.
"Rapid unscheduled disassembly" is a beautiful term, reminds me of what happens to my position every second time I play the King's Indian as white.
One criticism I've seen of Fischer random is that, at least with the shorter time to prepare, players often default to completely symmetrical openings to the point where they can get away with it, which can't hope to be as rich as something like a sicilian. I'll be curious to see if this changes with the longer time controls.
"[…] a rapid schedule disassembly of a hotel room." 😄
In other words: Hans blew up the room like a Space X-rocket.
You can ban him from the club but if the club wants to host the US championship they should not be allowed to ban him from this. If he qualifies he should play
Nice of you to call it by its rightful name: Fischer Random
Talking about opening preparation, grandmasters must spend most of their time looking at dozens or even hundreds of variations that it’s a wonder they have the time to do anything else.
Thanks for the coverage, does anyone know when Magnus is playing classical again?
does the King not know goat means greatest of all time?
I was thinking of Rd1 at 12:30. Maybe pawn c5 is the refutation.
"channeling the maverick american world champion, which seems to fit his personality", lol.
He doesn't insult and if he does, it sounds like a compliment.
Niemann said , how many times was that said.
Honestly, I am so sick of that twerp… 🙁
Some equal positions are more difficult to hold than others
After spending 45 years traveling in the tech industry I can tell you it can be very difficult being polite to hotel staff in some situations. I doubt I was always successful.
Giuoco Piano speaks for itself!
The Fischer chess tourney will be interesting. Magnus sounds very motivated, and said: This is the logical way to go. Fischer chess should have longer time control than classical chess, simply because you must calculate new positions from move 1. (Not a precise quote, but what he meant)
Interesting game.
I do like your emphasis on noting that Stockfish's (or any other engine's) analysis is not necessarily the "truth" of the position, in that, it may show the "best" move but is it the "best" move for a human to play? Sometimes, not. I've analyzed positions where Stockfish gives a winning assessment of a position. And then when I look at the "best" move, it's insanity. One line I looked at required FOUR "only move" computer moves that were just incredible. No human could find them. It took me hours of experimenting to understand why those "only moves" were winning. The kind of thing I could NEVER play in a real game and remember. The moves, the concepts, far too alien for a human being. So, in that position I play the "second best" move, which is also winning but a move I can understand. A move, a human can play.
When you analyze with Stockfish, remember you're not Stockfish. Ask yourself if the resulting position is one you understand. "But Stockfish says this is the best move!" Well, yeah, for Stockfish but maybe not for you. 🙂
Hans should already have Fischer 's games memorized. Young people…
The jacket is very nice indeed!
rhanks for your usual insightful commentary Daniel
Great commentary as always. Thank you sir.
"Rapid disassembly of a hotel room"? That's quite a mouthful to say a room got trashed.
Rockstar Hans better soon start playing like Fischer.
Good update and game
As a Dutchman, I got a smile on my face at the correct pronunciation of Liam's last name! (You could even say, I was quite 'Vrolijk' (happy) 🙃)
The US Championship game you are thinking of is Niemann-Caruana 2023. There Hans took back on d4 with the knight instead of the pawn and lost. I daresay this is what triggered his analysis of the line and subsequent dissatisfaction.
what a brutal pin!
Hi there, is there is any chance you can see my model game with the Kalashnikov?, I learnt it from you and I think it would be great addition to analyze and share among people!!
