Magnus Carlsen, Anish Giri, Praggnanandhaa and Wesley So play from the San Francisco Ferry Building as the 2022 Meltwater Champions Chess Tour season ends with the Finals from November 14-20. They’re joined on the chess24 Playzone by Arjun Erigaisi, Jan-Krzysztof Duda, Shakhriyar Mamedyarov and Liem Le as the 8 players compete for $210,000 in a 7-round all-play-all event. Each match consists of 4 rapid games, with $7,500 for a winner in rapid chess.
If a match is tied 2:2, two blitz games are played followed, if needed, by Armageddon. A tiebreak winner earns $5,000 and the loser $2,500. The time control for each rapid game is 15 minutes, with a 10-second increment from move 1. The blitz tiebreak games are 5+3, while for Armageddon White has 5 minutes to Black’s 4, but a draw counts as a win for Black. No draw offers are allowed before move 40.

Hello everyone and welcome to the third Day of the meltwater Champions Chester Final series Young sheet of Duda versus Anijigiri and it is the most requested Game of yesterday it is absolutely Brilliant it's one of those games that Remind us why we enjoy chess as much as We do and it's best to just see what Happens so do that with the white pieces Opens with Pawn to D4 and at this point In the match aduda was already leading By a full point as the first game ended By Duda winning second game ended in a Draw and this is now a third game uh we Have nine to F6 by an H C for E6 Knight To F3 and now Pawn to D5 going for the Queen's Gambit declined Knight to C3 and Now Bishop to B4 going for the aragos in Defense C Captain d5e captures and the Bishop to G5 and here it's a very Standard position H6 is the most common Idea and each goes for Knight B to D7 This is the second most popular line now Rook the C1 do the brings the roof to The semi-open C file H6 challenging the Bishop to Bishop to H4 and the G5 now Advancing the pawn all the way Bishop to G3 and now Knight the E4 putting Pressure on the bishop and on the Knight On C3 and pretty much in all the games That read your disposition Knights the D2 was played but the Duda plays Queen To B3 which is the strongest move Recommended by the engine uh it's just
That the disposition hasn't really been Reached since 2021 unless in uh you know Aside from some online games so probably The engines improved over the course of The year and now Queen to B3 is the most Popular idea could be that that's the Reason okay Bishop captures on C3 B Captures and now there are a few online Games where C6 was played but here we Have knighted the B6 by a niche and it Is now as of move 11 that we have a Completely new game both moves are Basically aimed at defending the D5 Pawn By playing Queen to B3 you are putting Pressure on it and now Pawn the E3 with Pawned the H5 as the G5 Pawn is now Sufficiently defended you can advance The H Pawn to play H4 and here you just Want to trap the bishop but here Duda Plays something that means that he Probably had this um prepared at home it Doesn't have to mean that it could also Mean that he just found a very nice idea Over the board but he plays C4 and what Does this mean it means that your Bishop Is getting trapped but why H4 attacks The bishop Bishop to E5 and now Pawn to F6 and you cannot save the bishop but Here's the idea C4 was played with the With the idea of playing C captures on D5 and okay F characters and E5 uh Anishu grabs the bishop and now Bishop To B5 with check And now how do you organize a defense
Here uh best to play is Bishop to D7 but It's not easy to decide on this in a Rapid game let's say something like Knight captures on E5 now you have to Play Knight to D6 to keep your B7 Pawn Defended and if Bishop captures Knight Captures for example White Castles you Get this position that has pretty much Equal uh the B7 Pawn is defended the White has the massive Center here black Black is up a piece uh and you will you Will try to survive this as black with Perfect play it should be it should be Uh possible but in the game King the f8 Was played by a niche and now Knight Captures an E5 already threatening Knight to G6 check may be forking the King and the Rook so King the G7 even Though uh Queen captures on D5 was the Was the safer way to do it uh you are Not in trouble of losing material here You are in trouble of losing the game King to G7 and now look at this bishop To D3 attacking the Knight here uh Knight back to six now you no longer Have access to the D5 pawn and now do Digest castles so now he's preparing F4 To bust open the f file so G4 and now Pawn to F4 now again Duda would be very Happy if Anish would open up the file so Rook to f8 and now Pawn to E4 look at This massive Center dude that has built Here pawn to G3 and now Pawn to F5 Getting closer and closer to the black
King uh Queen to G5 you might think uh Why move the queen why allow Rook Captures on C7 the problem is even Though white sacrificed the piece for The attack black is playing without the Bishop and without the rook and there is No way to defend the C7 Pawn uh the Knights for the moment cannot defend the Pawn The Rook cannot come to F7 so you Either defend the pawn with your queen Or you give it up to maybe at some point In the game Uh develop your bishop and Rook so here Queen to G5 he wants to get the queen to E3 to D2 to go for the attack hopefully And now Rook captures on C7 with check King to G8 and now Bishop back to B1 uh We have Queen to D2 and it's an Excellent Square for the queen you are Now threatening Queen captures and D2 And D4 with the check also you might Have some plans of H3 which will Threaten Checkmate then G2 and of course If you capture then you get a checkmated On H2 but to do that plays a queen to F3 And what is this uh what is this uh Sorcery dare I say it if Queen captures On D4 check Queen captures an E5 can you Just give up this knight uh it turns out You can for example if you play Something like Queen capture sund4 check King H1 and queen captures an E5 just Queen G4 check and black gets checkmated There's no way out of this King g a king
H8 queen H5 checking j8 and queen to H7 Will be Checkmate so in instead after Queen to F3 Anish says alright I have to Play something otherwise I'm just dead Here so Bishop captures an F5 he gives Up a piece or gives the piece back so to Say to connect his Rooks and for the Moment prevent Queen to G4 and okay e Captures an F5 Queen captures on D4 King To H1 and now again you are not in time To go after the Knight if you play Queen Capture Sun E5 then Queen to G4 check is Again possible with the same Checkmate So after King H1 Rook ate the C8 by a Niche and now uh you there are so many Moves you could play here and I could Ask you to pause the video here but I Decided to use this uh position as the Position on the thumbnail but I have a Much nicer position for you to solve Because here it's basically made in 11. It's a forced mating 11 there's nothing Anish can do about it and do that spot Set which is it which is so interesting Because you don't have to do it here a Rook the G7 check was played uh do the Sacrifices or look but you can win the Game with playing Rook the E7 you just Avoid the Rook trade or even you could Offer a sacrifice that would work to H7 Everything works here but Rook the G7 Check is just beautiful as it's forced King captures an F's on G7 now F6 with Check and now if you go back King to G8
Look at this bishop to H7 check Forces the king to the H file Queen H5 Check King to G8 and now Queen G6 check King goes to h8 and now of course Queen To G7 Checkmate so instead after F6 Check King the H6 was plate stopping Queen to H5 and this is where the thing Is where things get extremely Interesting Knight the G4 with check King to G5 and now comes the move do the Hat to see when he played Rook to G7 Check or he just said all right let's Wing it you know what bad things could Happen here but feel free to pause the Video and finish the game from this Point on it's now a forced mate in eight Uh with only one winning idea so feel Free to pause the video uh and uh try And crack this one while I give you a Few seconds Foreign So for those of you who are able to do It congratulations on spotting the only Winning move in the position and for Those of you who just want to enjoy the Show it is Queen to F5 that's the stuff Uh now the black king has no squares and Black's only move is to accept the queen Captured with the Knight so Knight Captures on F5 was played now comes Rook Captures on F5 and now uh there are only Two choices for Anish do you want to get Mated in one or do you want to get mated In six if you capture on G4 then H3 is
Checkmate that's the that's the idea so Anish of course went back he played King To G6 but now look at this Rook the E5 Check opens up a discovery and he was in This position unmove 33 that Anish giri Resigned the game as he is getting Checkmated in the next five moves I I Will just show uh if you play something Like Rook to four to go after the queen You just lose the game terribly because After the king moves you you get to Checkmate The Rook to C1 you have to Block and then you just get checkmated So it is absolutely crucial for you to Find the forcing mate with Rook to E5 Check and now okay Anish resigned here But just to show you what happens uh if You play King to F7 and that is your Only move with the King uh Rook the E7 Check King to G8 and now Knight the H6 With check King to h8 and now Rook the H7 will be Checkmate so this is the Checkmate that dude I saw and now I Don't think he saw all the way to here But it's very interesting uh if uh if Duda saw uh this uh after Rook the G7 Check that he will be able to sacrifice The queen uh with that Queen to F5 move I mean if he saw this in a rapid game That's absolutely incredible and for This reason alone and for you know maybe Not alone but as it is a spectacular Game I will for the first time in a very Long time which means it's not the first
Time uh award one of the players the Most prestigious award player could Receive for his gameplay and that is the Morphy head so Duda is awarded the Morphy head as you guys have requested Uh I award the morphy head I just didn't Think um some of the games that you guys Thought that deserved a morphy had I Didn't really think so but this one this Definitely deserves the morphy head and Now Duda is one of the few players in The world that was awarded the the most Prestigious award available in the world And that is the morphy head Uh so yeah that's the game hope you guys Enjoyed it I mean truly spectacular we Can just go at uh go go through the uh 11 move combination one more time I mean Absolutely spectacular Rook the G7 check King captures F6 check King H6 now Knight to G4 check King G5 and now only Winning move Queen F5 check Knight has To capture the queen Rook captures now King G4 would be nice but okay King to G6 and each wanted to prolong the game a Little bit rookie five check and now the Game would continue King F7 rookie 7 Check King to G8 Knight H6 check King Goes here and now Rook to H7 Checkmate It's really spectacular hope you guys Enjoyed that as uh I mean I was I was so Happy when I saw this game I hope some Of you were as well I mean I hope all of You were but hopefully at least some of
