Magnus Carlsen vs Andrey Esipenko 19 Move Sicilian Kan Miniature

So, I don't think there's any way I can... Oh, it's the second... Actually, I can see the results on the second screen. That helps a bit. Bishop e3, what is that? Is the idea bishop d3 now? f4? No, he just wants the hedgehog. I'm good with hedgehog. Don't mind it at all. This is no good. No, I'm completely fine already. e5 next. Yeah, okay. Okay, so that's his plan. Well, I take it back. This is not... It's not crazy what he's doing. Check maybe? p6? c5 maybe? I don't think I particularly mind him not getting bc. I think time is important. Also, my pawn on b6 can potentially be attacked if he opens the b file. Maybe I missed bishop d2. Well, I did certainly miss it, but maybe it's significant. I don't know. I feel like I'm okay. Makes a lot of sense, of course. I don't think I'm too worried. Queen f3. I take it... Then queen a5 maybe? I don't know. You can also go h5, but I'm not super convinced about that. I don't think he should have allowed me the time to... Here? To do this? A castle? Castle is like a queen a5? This is a big threat. No, I don't believe in this. I think he's messed up. I think this is a house of cards that's really bound to collapse. Like, he doesn't even have any defense. Rook d2. There are many wins. But I think... Yeah, the simplest is just rook d3 and then bishop e4. That should be more or less game over on the spot. Bishop e4. What am I missing here? This is just a complete and utter disaster for him. Knight e4 was also completely winning. But here, I mean, queen e2, queen c3, queen d6, queen c3. It's all just falling apart. This is a little bit like the World Blitz Championship in 2018. When I played Duda in the seventh round, I think, I beat him. So after that, I had five and a half out of seven. He had four and a half out of seven. So there were 21 rounds in total. And he ended up scoring, I think, 12 out of his last 14. This is an amazing score. And I scored 11 and a half. So he ended up on 16 and a half out of 21, which he almost always wins with. But I had 17 out of 21. So I think he was two points ahead of third place, but he didn't make it. So it could be that he will indeed make 10 out of 11 today, including drawing against me. But it's not going to be enough. Anyway, we get our second Title Tuesday win in a row. Let me just check this. Apparently, the engine really wants me to take on C3 at any moment, which I didn't really appreciate. Here, yeah, Queen f5. It's just game over. Yeah, it's just a complete crush. There's no way to even really keep the game going. The engine just wants to give up the pawn, but that's very, very sad. Let's see. Let's see how Duda is doing. So he is completely winning against Andreykin. Yeah, knight c4. It's going to be game over. Oh, it's this system. Then this just was nothing. Bishop d6, amongst other things. It's just winning. Well, at least there's potential for a Queen ending up at g4. But Andreykin is quite tricky, so if you don't kind of put him away, he might bite. And thank you for all the congrats. It feels good. You might beat me sober, Magnus, but not drunk. I'm a different beast when drunk. Clearly, you don't know the history of this channel at all, do you? How has JonSebastian done? The other streamer from this office, he's got six and a half. Yeah, this looks like he's lost to some really good players, though. So I don't think he's done too poorly. Yeah, Rook g7. There's only stalemate Neff left to play for. Yeah, exactly, Queen d4. Okay, that's game over. So Duda ends up with 10 out of 11 and is honestly desperately unlucky not to win the tournament. But that's the way it goes sometimes.
