I'm watching it live and it sure looks like Magnus is going to win... again. I don't believe Nakamura has EVER beaten him.
Nakamura is trailing for now
Sort:
lmao nakamura FAIL again, redbull will drop him after this tournament? It seems that he will never beat carlsen
52...Re8 turned out to be the last move. Nakamura resigned.
If he could not win this then how?
One of my favorite game of chess history.

4. Next, Next, Preview, Insert
5. Submit post
Easy.
Beautiful eh?
Thanks sir
Love u guys
And today's game...
lol I was thinking to myself, omg Nakamura decided to play the exact same game and Carlsen played right into it!
Then I looked at the date.
Nakamura needs to call that black magic expert the last 500 posts advertise.
What's actually more amazing than naka trailing, is that Carlsen is having a 'terrible"(?) tournament, and still leading, lol
4. f3 is a standard move which prepares e4 as well as protects e4 square. Thats what I read about in my opening repertoire book.
