Iedereen maakt het eens mee, je speelt een fantastische partij,maar net op het moment dat je zekere winst of zeker gelijkspel binnen lijkt, maak je een ongelooflijke blunder. Als dit gebeurd, kijk dan zeker eens naar onderstaande partijen van topgrootmeesters die ook de mist gaan.
1. Magnus Carlsen - Merab Gagunashvili
Carlsen decided that saving a pawn is more important than preventing the checkmate, so he played
65. e5?? and ofcourse got mated
65...Rc1#
White to move
2. Larry Christiansen - Anatoly Karpov
L. Christiansen never became a world champion, but he has beaten one in just 12 moves. In this game Karpov played
11...Bd6?? without and sense of danger. Now Christiansen is winning a piece with a nifty queen fork
12. Qd1. Karpov did not bother to continue the game and resigned immediately.
position after Karpov played
11...Bd6??
3. Deep Fritz - Vladimir Kramnik
Kramnik offered a queen exchange to a German computer program Fritz, by playing
34...Qe3??. I bet the computer did not take long to find mate in one, which Kramnik has missed:
35. Qh7#.
position after Kramnik played
34...Qe3??
4. Donchev - Topalov
In this position Topalov missed a simple discovered attack with a check by Dimitar Donchev:
19. Nh6+ winning the queen. Black resigned a move later.
position after Donchev played
19. Nh6+!
5. Anatoly Karpov - Matthew Sadler
In this game Karpov did not notice a subtle threat after Sadler played
12...e4. Karpov responded with pawn capture via
13. Rxf7?? losing his queen to a pawn (!!)
13...exd3.
White to move
6. Garry Kasparov - Vladimir Kramnik
In this game Kramnik offered a queen exchange once again playing
35...Qf8?? but here he did not get mated in one like in the game before. That still loses the game though,
36. Bd7+ winning the queen.
position after Kramnik played
35...Qf8??
7. Vladimir Kramnik - Wang Hao
Wang Hao missed a two-move tactical hit by Kramnik
26. Qb8+ followed by
27.Qb1 winning the rook via the fork.
position after Kramnik played
26. Qb8+
8. Pablo Lafuente - Shredder
In this game the player who blunders is surprisingly... a computer. After the bishop exchange
19.Bxb7 Shredder calculated its variation 20 moves ahead and interestingly enough decided to ignore the white's bishop whatsoever. Shredder played
19...Rfd8?? not regaining the material. Laufente won some 30 moves later. The Shredder's lose was later explained as 'hash tables error', with one in a million chance.
Shredder about to play
19...Rfd8??
9. Alexander Morozevich - Boris Gelfand
In this game Gelfand played
30...Rd6?? missing the hidden pin and tactical hit by Morozevich ended the game quickly
31.Rxe4 winning the knight.
position after Gelfand played
30...Rd6??
10. Peter Heine Nielsen - Sergey Karjakin
Here Karjakin played
100...Kg5?? hanging the rook. Nielsen was happy to finally finish off this long game with
101.Kxa1.
Karjakin is about to play
100...Kg5??
Conclusions
1. Grandmasters and
World Champions are human. They do make mistakes and blunder like 1500 rated players... not as often though.
2. Computers can blunder too! That was actually a big surprise for me.
