AGRESSIVE ATTACK!! Nodirbek Abdusattorov vs Anish Giri || Tata Steel Chess 2026 -

he's got white he's very good with white but anisha saying i won yesterday against the world champion i'm gonna i'm now rolling so he picks a sharp variation and it starts with the nimzo after knight to f3 we now go into what is called the rugozin variation of the queen's gambit and there's many ways you can play here against this capturing is one and white has a whole load of responses you can do you can capture on d5 you can throw in queen a4 check you can even do what argent aragicy did earlier on although it didn't work out but it wasn't because of the opening queen b3 bishop to g5 is another move that you can play so queen a4 i think we saw it in another incarnation it don't think he brought white too much joy but um this one you you've got to back it up with bishop coming out to either f4 or g5 and either way blank's ambitious plan is more or less the same you want to be jumping in with a knight to e4 or you want to be going h6 at the right time if the bishop comes out to g5 h6 g5 and then jumping in with the knight to e4 and you have to be prepared to go full throttle on the king side yeah i mean bishop g5 used to be the main line here and i used to play this quite a lot now as yopi said you can't go h6 and g5 but that is really quite risky one line that occurs is with knight e4 and then knight d2 is a good move and this is considered to be a bit too risky for black but then someone found i can't remember who maybe looking at like eight years ago that at some point black can just put the bishop on f5 really simple way equalize it might even be around here and they just thought well this is a great square for the bishop and and this this basically kind of put players off playing bishop g5 so then some players started trying bishop f4 but now this idea we just saw with the knight coming in is a better idea for black because you don't have to weaken your king well you can still do it but you don't you can do it in a better way and now rook c1 defends and knight c6 occurs this gets yeah this is a very sharp line that anisha's playing i mean he's going for peace play rather than going for a solid pawn structure because if uh if white can consolidate you know this this knight is not very well placed here so it's all about the piece play so knight d2 we saw this before you don't want that that knight to settle and again anisha has to keep playing aggressively and he goes g5 so variable square for the knight for this out so now you're probably going to go g3 and go this way but you have to defend this pawn such a fighter i was gonna say you can go knight f4 but that only really works against e2 doesn't work against e takes f2 does it work against e2 no or e2 i was thinking rook sorry knight to d3 uh-huh and it doesn't really work there either you go rook d1 and you remove the d1 rook e4 oh okay the game goes on yeah do you know what the only winning move is here okay maybe we put it to the audience we don't we can offer you a spoon that's all we got left today so there's what is the it's actually only one winning move as the red bar says what is the winning move here actually it's not so easy and you can win a spoon but you better give it back to the bar afterwards otherwise otherwise i'll be rook check oh what a what a what is your name sir great move as long as you give it to the bar yeah you can take my saucepan as well if you want and there's a couple of glasses here you can take to the bar as well and can you get me a beer while you're there please rook check holy move what a move what a move because if you now go knight takes queen and this is brilliant because if you go here now i get the tempo and i take the knight and let's just show that my pawn queens that's a great move and if you go this way now i attack your knight so you don't have time to go rookie four and i take the knight and i queen so that's winning as well it's all winning it's all winning for a niche this is a very simple and good way of doing it and i don't think naughty bet can fight much more great game from a niche great game yeah absolute cinema well we had a lot of fun with that one feels like i just want to stay in this game because it's too much fun but maybe we should look at some other players what do you reckon well there do you reckon or not there isn't too many games okay happening i mean we have a aravind fighting hard against argent eric guy see that's probably headed to a draw but it's not going to be finishing any time now and it's also looking very drawish in the only game remaining in the challenges between denno you for against vedant pennis and panisar and we have resignation what a game what a fantastic performance there from start to finish the crowd goes crazy it's great it's great having a live crowd i love it you guys are brilliant pretty pretty proud but i feel like such a game deserves such a response definitely you know if we had gold coins we would be throwing them yeah so
