White: Magnus Carlsen (2863) Black: OrangeKing (1831) Chess24 Simul 8/5/2020 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 Bb4 4. Nf3 Ne4 5. Qc2 Nxc3 6. bxc3 Be7 7. e4 d6 8. h4 Nd7 9. Bf4 b6 10. Rd1 Bb7 11. Be2 Qc8 12. Rh3 Nf6? Should have castled. But who wants to castle into an attack like this against the GOAT? 13. e5 Nh5? Better to just play Nd7 and live with it. Or Be4 is best, counterattacking the queen! Against a player of this caliber, it's now pretty much already over. 14. Bc1 g6 15. g4 Ng7 16. Bh6 Rg8 17. Ng5 Bxg5 18. Bxg5 Bg2 19.
