The 2018 World Chess Championship determined to force the decisive game against Fabiano
Caruana on Wednesday, and he got what he wanted, but at what cost? Its draw
to offer on movement 31, in a better position with more time, shocked the world of chess.

prefer?
Whatever happens now, Magnus Carlsen will emerge from the
World Championship Match as the No. 1, and quick chess and blitz on
Wednesday, he must always be the big favorite against Fabiano Caruana.
Nevertheless, even if everything goes as planned, match 12 of the match in London
can take a long time to live. Peter Svidler takes us through a game that could
be explained in terms of match situation:
We know that Magnus made a quick draw with white
coins against Sergey Karjakin in New York to take this match tied, and
there was no reason to think that he would have a problem with a similar result with
the black pieces in London. He almost got what he wanted.
The game started with the Sicilian Sveshnikov, but on the other hand
to the previous two games in the match Magnus went for the 2nd most popular
move 8 … Ne7 instead of 8 … Nb8. Per shot
There was already a silent draw on the table, but Caruana chose 12.h4 as Vladimir
Kramnik played Serbia's Milos Roganovic at the recent Batumi Olympiad.
Vlad won this match, but he then confided to Anish Giri that the opening of his opponent
to play had been good. That's where things deviated, however, like Magnus
did not answer with 12 … a6 but 12 … h5 :
This gave Fabiano a nine-minute reflection and earned Alexander Grischuk the almost daily description he had made during the match.
miserable preparation by White. "The movement was played in a high
computer game profile enough to enter normal databases … by Stockfish
against Houdini in the TCEC Season 11 Super Final !
We have never been able to know if Magnus would have answered the
obvious 13.Bg5 with the 13 … Qb8 !? of Stockfish, since Fabiano finally chose 13.Qa4 and after 13 … Bd7 14.Qb4 Bf5 the draw was again 3- fold of rehearsal for the

While Fabiano wondered if he should accept a draw, after being surprised at first, Anish Giri did not fear the opportunities.
to draw himself, felt that this could be a mistake:
"Bottle" here means "courage" or "willingness to take risks"
in familiar British English, and after 8 minutes, Caruana has found enough
to go for 15.Be3 !? . This was the first
number of bold decisions from the challenger, the most dramatic
came with 21.Rh2 !?
When Svidler commented later, "Fabi is not going to die
I was wondering [what might have been] today, "Grischuk summed it up perfectly.
with: "Yes, bravo for his spirit. His mind is better than his preparation
aujourd & # 39; hui "!
From then on, the race was difficult for Fabiano, with the clock
not his friend:
Although he managed to justify the tower lift by bringing
turn to C2, his knight was awkwardly placed on f2 and in almost
Svidler estimated that in other circumstances 25.f4?
would have been a blow against Magnus:
Grischuk says pretty much this: "Looks like
Fabiano had Topalov syndrome in this game – it was enough to avoid normal movements to avoid
a draw. "This was a reference to the last match of the 2010 World Championship match.
against Vishy Anand, when Veselin Topalov committed suicide chess with the
white pieces rather than playing tie-breakers. This would be the first of many
amnesties in the match in London, however, while Magnus was playing fast 25 … a5 26.Qd2 e4 rather than looking
the b5-break or 25 … exf4!
Why did not Magnus leave for more? As he later said:
The answer is very simple – it just was not my goal! Once
Again, my approach was not to unbalance the position at this point. I had a
very clear path with a5 and e4 that gave me a completely safe position that I
could possibly play for a win.
Magnus was not bothered by the computer evaluations:
Our team of commentators had echoed the words of the world champion
approach during the game:
A new golden opportunity to win the match with style ad
move 29:
Magnus played 29 … a4 but 29 … Ba4! was shown by Fabiano after the match. 30.b3?
would lose at 30 … Bxb3!, while 30.Rcc1 would be hit by 29 … b5! As pointed Svidler
it was not one of those extremely difficult computer lines that no one
could be blamed for missing but something that you will probably find if you
consider 29 … Ba4 at all. As Magnus said at the press conference, "I believe

gave a brief interview:
The irony, in a sense, was that even though we were not really pushing for
Magnus still had an extremely promising position and more than
20 minutes ahead on the clock. Vladimir Kramnik was giving 50:50
if Caruana would survive … when all of a sudden, everything was over!
Fabiano Caruana describes himself later as "a little surprised
by the offer of draw ", and even reflected. Psychologically
it was a show of force, but as Grischuk said, it was the kind of offer
you might be tempted to accept if you were on the run from a point in the match and
it always meant a defeat but would save a few ranking points! While in this case …
The shock resonated in the chess world, with the old
World champions are not exempt:
Norwegian and American fans were equally stunned:
And other great players were shocked or disappointed:
Carlsen's words later did nothing to alleviate what was
perceived almost as a crime against chess and the whole champion had defended:
I do not know, but to be honest, I was just trying to make it natural
moves. Everyone could see that I was not necessarily going for the maximum. I
I just wanted a position that was completely safe and where I could put a little
pressure, but I mean – if a draw had not been a satisfactory result, obviously
Maybe that's just how Anish Giri held a cup so far.
reproach:
It is highly recommended to check how our own
commentators Giri, Svidler and Grischuk reacted to the news of the draw, just
when they thought they had never heard the words, "I offer a draw"
get out of Magnus' mouth (and Grischuk was halfway to an anecdote about the German-Norwegian coastguard and "I'm sinking / I think" …). The video must be programmed to start at that time, while they are going to
to have a fascinating discussion of more than 30 minutes on the match
result, tie-breaks and general ramifications for chess. Should something change?

So, where does all this leave us? Well, Magnus is where he
wanted to be before the start of the match, enter the decisive games after a historic sequence of all the clbadic matches of a World Championship match ending in Draws:
The Wednesday format, from the usual time, will be
as follows – if there is a winner in one of these mini-matches, he wins the title.
without more games played:
- 4 quick games : 25 minutes for all moves of each player, plus an increment of 10 seconds per move
- 2 games blitz : 5 minutes plus an increment of 3 seconds

The day could be very long, but what can we expect? Long before

he is clearly impressed by what he saw:
On the other hand, one of the reasons why Nakamura had so little

And of course, unlike Fabiano, he was there and finished
this:
Still, there is no doubt that Fabiano has put a lot of work
by honing his speed chess skills in the prospect of the match, and if you
combine that with a little luck with the preparation, and some nerves from the
champion, everything can still happen.
It's all to be hoped for Wednesday, but not yet again.
another day off, we have more than Banter Blitz, with Sopiko
