    Endgame wizardry has always been to me, the most fascinating and impressive aspect of GM chess. Amateurs like myself can bust out cool sacrifices every once in a while, but orchestrating a ~30 move plan that culminates in “Opponent to move and lose” is pure chess dominance.

All the time they were making the point of how easily Anand would achieve the draw...Suddenly, some strange moves from Magnus, and soon Anand lost.

    My favorite endgame of Carlsen is his ridiculous save against Kramnik in the London Classic 2010. I remember reading Carlsen describing how he waited for Kramnik to return to the board to make his move and making sure he sighed when playing into a fork as if he had given up the game because he saw the resulting endgame, while both winning for Kramnik and looking easy, was in practice hard to win and he wanted Kramnik to play his move as fast as possible without thinking to much about it. Kramnik recently talked about it and it was obvious it is one of those games that still haunts him to this very day.

    I caught the latter part of Carlsen-Firouzja live online and the chat was rife with armchair GMs reading off Stockfish lines and saying it was absolutely a draw, no way it could be anything else, right up until the moment the evaluation jumped to +56 or whatever -- and then saying Firouzja "blundered" as if they would have even made it to an endgame against Carlsen. I've always heard people rave about Carlsen's ability to create practical chances in seemingly dead-drawn endgames, and it was cool to watch it happen (though as I recall the fact Firouzja was in severe zeitnot may have had _something_ to do with it as well). I would never in 100 years have thought of returning the king to e5 but it's really the only move that gives black the opportunity to err.

    Speaking as a firefighter you do indeed fight fire with fire. But only if you're a professional dealing with forest fires. I wouldn't recommend it for your house. Examples of this include controlled burns and backburning. In chess analogies a controlled burn would be making a pawn break and trading some bishops before your opponent is able to close the center in an advantageous way. And backburning is when you're being pawn stormed so you sacrifice a piece right in front of your king to double up your opponents pawn structure. Controlled burning is setting something on fire before it catches on fire by itself. And backburning is setting small fires in the path of a big fire, because of quirks in how big fires behave this can have the effect of making it burn itself out *if you know what you're doing,* even though it seems like a bad idea at first glance.

    Wow, this is the best video I have checked out, you outdone yourself, dude, awesome awesome games, you single handedly elevated Magnus to a NEOLOGISM stature. You chose the best games, you did your homework, presented a lucid, exciting, and interesting lesson on End Games strategies ala Magnus. I know Magnus’ grasp of EG is magnificent but to see it presented this way, all in one video is mind boggling. You did a fantastic job, thanks so so much.

    Absolutely great video and effort by Levy as always, but i also would like to give a honourable mention to Magnus's game vs Jobava at the World Blitz 2019. Understandable that it was a blitz game so it any win in classical will be a more convincing content material corresponding to the title, but Magnus definitely showed his dominance in endgames especially at the highest level of competence. Lastly, wishing whoever who reads this message the best in whatever you do and appreciate this community Levy brought us.

    at 28:22 is there bishop g4?

    funny enough you do actually fight fire with fire. to prevent wildfires from growing or moving in certain directions firefighters will do "controlled burns" which is where u quite literally burn a specific section of land, so that when the nearby wildfire reaches it hopefully if everything goes right it just moves along the side of the area u burned and not into it. so in terms of fighting wildfires, you actually can do it with fire, not so much regular house or business fires though as those are much quicker and based usually around if there's a good sprinkler system or other preventative measure and not so much an active counter measure like this

    slipped his feminine hand into Magnus's pants and smirked. "Are you trying to mate me?" protests Magnus, as Levy blushes, the boyish figure undressed before Magnus. "Weak tempo play, Levy." The two kissed, deeply and passionately, and afterwards Magnus places his Rook into Levy's open line." Levy you... You're making my rook lift."
