  • Tata Steel 2023

    Lovely counterattacking game by Ding Liren in Rd 1! Earlier on Nc5 produced lively play and then finishing rook sacrifice Rxe4 followed by Bd3! - the bishops rule!

    In the challengers both GM"s Mishra and Warmerdam are off to a hot start. Lovely attack by Max Warmerdam sacrificing the queen for endless piece play leading to checkmate.

            Rd 2 Magnus - picturesque exchange sacrifice to win in vintage Carlsen style.

            Anish Giri put on a tactical showcase.

                In the challengers 6 way tie for first. The young star Roebers missed a nice win against Warmerdam.
                Beerdsen played an Evans Gambit! and was winning but couldnt come up with the right tactics.

                    I agree 100% ... he is very interesting and his command of English is extraordinary. I love his stories as well.

                      Peter Svidler brings more culture to chess. They should release audiotapes of his commentary.

                            Rd 4 Giri saw it thru and triumphed! Big win against Magnus!
                            Abdusattarov two rooks huge on e6 and a lasting attacking initiative right thru a major piece endgame!

                            Two huge wins resulting in a two way tie for first with Giri and Abdusattarov!
