  • A super GM falling for that was wild! 😂 Proves it happens to best of us cause we are human at the end of the day.

    this is a rare moment of Nelson covering GMs recent games! and congrats to Fabiano too!👏‼️‼️

    This is why we need better ways to measure how dynamic positions and therefore games are. This 9 move game had more action than most 90 move games
  • @ppr2005
    Same line happened with GM Nijat Abasov and he won. Edit:Abasov won,I earlier thought he lost

    Very cool game. You have to wonder if this was previously thought through, or if it was simply opportunistic. Both are possible, as it was a GM game. I had a similar situation yesterday (im my lowly 1149 elo). Got my KN is a good position, threatening a King/Rook fork. His Q was guarding the pawn at point of fork. Not only did he not see it, he moved the queen to a square where i could now fork the king and Queen! Bet he'll pay more attention next time

    Makes me feel much better about all my blunders knowing super GMs sometimes resign in less them 10 moves too!😂😂
  • @pgress1867
    cool… what happens if black takes the pawn on c6 instead of the rook?
  • i might be crazy, but i am almost 100% sure i saw the same thing in a GM game before

    In response to the title: He's a Super Grandmaster himself.
  • I have seen the sequence Rxa7 Rxa7 c7 before, so I eventually knew what was coming.

    one of the nicest traps i've seen fabi is so brilliant
  • @Totylogy
    The title: Fabiano beats a super grandmaster in 9 moves😅

    3:13 -- in case anyone's wondering, the CORRECT move for Black in this position was... Nxc6 . Had Firouzja played that, game would have been almost equal. Instead, he blunders HORRIBLY with the taking of the corner Rook... .
  • This makes me feel a lot better as an 1200 rated player. Even grandmasters aren’t perfect.
