Most Stunning Queen Sac of the 2020 FIDE Online Chess Olympiad | Gazprom Brilliancy Prize

September 4, 2020 by Chess Chest Leave a Comment

Watch live on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/imrosen — Follow to get notified when I go live!
In this video, I share a spectacular game between GM Dvirnyy Danyyil (Italy) and GM Alexei Shirov (Spain) from the 2020 FIDE Online Chess Olympiad. The game featured a Slav Defense (what I preferred calling a reverse London Opening) and quickly became sharp in the middle game. Shirov displayed some attacking brilliance that he is famous for and found some incredible moves, including a dazzling queen sacrifice. I hope chess fans will be entertained and inspired by this game! As part of the Gazprom Brilliancy Prize (trophy shown in the thumbnail) I was a selected as a judge out of several other chess streamers and YouTubers to choose their favorite games from the event. Check out more cool games from the 2020 FIDE Chess Olympiad and analyze them more in depth:

@ginger_gm @chessable @richardpalliser Good stuff, guys! I had a look at these lines back in 2019 for my Sicilian course as Black. I was surprised to find that this is much better than you might think at first. Leads to good fighting positions and certainly will surprise people!

Thats a nice checkmate! 😎
This 1 e4 c5 2 Be2 is a very interesting idea, aiming for an ideal Dutch.
It's a nice 'system' opening, meaning knowing the basic plans is the key.
Hopefully I explain them all in the videos!

Magnus, but not Carlsen @NotCarlsen

@ginger_gm @chessable @richardpalliser Just tried my luck with 2 Be2 after watching your course intro and got this nice checkmate. Will definitely buy😀

❛❛ Notable Chess Quotes ❜❜

“Those who think that it’s easy to play chess are mistaken. During a game, a player lives on his nerves, and at the same time he must be perfectly composed.”
