“Carlsen lull Karjakin in not fatal position” – Soviet sport

Current European champion grandmaster Ernesto Inarkiev commented on the defeat of the Russians in the 10th batch.

– It was tactically a very important party, believes Inarkiev. — The fact that in the 8th and 9th batches Magnus did not play in his style — combinational chess. The eighth Norwegian just lost in the ninth Sergei was a good chance to victory, but it was not enough. In the 10th game, Carlsen went back to my game — play on small advantage with subtle nuances.

the game continued normally: in the opening Karjakin decided their problems received an equal position. Then he had to maneuver. There are several key moments.

the First key point. It is 15-16 strokes that he had 45 minutes. On the one hand, there was a situation where it would seem possible different moves. But really, this is a critical moment when it is necessary to act very accurately, and Sergei felt it. But too much thought and it was reflected subsequently.

the Second key point. On 20-21 course Magnus he made a mistake and allowed Sergei to force a draw. But Karjakin has been the pressure of time, and he missed this time. 20-m course was the easiest option is short and straight, just need to see one move. Carlsen saw this draw, but he had no options. On 21-m a course options more complicated, and the Norwegian saw them, too, which suggests that Sergei could find them.

After this position, Sergei was quite unpleasant. He had to go to passive defense. But it was not fatal, and Sergey is interested in defending himself.

the Third key point. After the control at the 56th move Karjakin made a direct calculation, taking the rook on h7, and missed b5. This is not peculiar to Sergei, because it is a direct option that does not require special calculations: it is seen that when the opponent goes b5 you don’t have time.

– what is this error?
– Sergey has been in a passive situation, had no direct active opportunities. And Magnus in that moment I got very hurt igracki. He began to walk the boats in and out and lulled the vigilance of the opponent. The complexity of the position that you don’t know when you need to stop and consider, and when to just make a retaliatory move. He thought that Magnus makes meaningless moves: tries just to pass control, and then we will look for a winning plan. Norwegian also cheated: making meaningless moves, while he waited for an opportunity to produce a breakthrough.

In principle have white in this position: C5 or g4. And black had to follow them.

– How to explain the errors of Sergey in a difficult position?
Is a disturbing sign: it is bad that Sergei made a mistake in a simple calculation. May have been fatigue. Moreover, both have Magnus too in the beginning made a tactical error. Another bad point is that Carlsen managed to win his way. This will give him confidence that the tactics, which he initially followed, is correct, and it will stick to it further.

How Sergey now play white?
– I Think the tactics he does not need to change, because in the 9th party had a good chance. He needs to try to impose a reality, and the 9th batch is a very good example in this sense. Sergei don’t need to burn bridges, it is necessary to control the situation, but at the same time to achieve a more specific position.

– In General, how do you see the continuation of the match?
– I am Sure that Magnus will be in his style to pry, and it gives Sergei the chances of success.
