i was sort of hoping for magnus to reach 2.9k, but it's also nice to see some resistance. caruana's had a bit of a rough stretch recently, good to have him back. | ||

the knight is locked out, the pawns just roll through easily | ||

 As an alternative, he can still pull a Bobby Fischer of course. | ||

edit: AND HE DOES! \o/ :D Also, nice that during the press conference, after being asked his opinion by Mamedyarov, he correctly pointed out that Mamedyarov should have played 22. Re1 instead of f5, which was indeed a blunder. | ||

He played 42. ... Rd2 which keeps a slight advantage. What would have been better instead? ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/QwABL3E.png) + Show Spoiler + 42. ...b3 | ||

I've been playing chess more often in the last few weeks, playing some against computer opponents and trying to increase my understanding of the game. I thought the 'academic' section of chessmaster grandmaster edition with very useful and I'm also watching a series of youtube video's with some elaborate analysis on games (example: + Show Spoiler + Do you guys have any recommendations on these analyses video's or more general, on improving in general? I'm quite a low level player. I played chess pretty high for my age between my 7th and 11th year before quitting the chess club i was a part of, but i haven't played chess a lot since then (im 24 now). I did study my old chess book and went through them without any trouble. I think the level of the video i gave as an example is about what i'd need (not too hard to follow, but i'm learning..). Although i know it probably doesnt say much, but as an indication my ranking on the chessmaster program against computer opponents averages around 1260. Thanks for any time spent | ||
