- Andrew_nenakhov 4y agoThe move was pretty obvious.
- klrobert 4y agoThen why does Carlsen ask "how?" before playing it? This is a conversation that would never have happened in an OTB tournament.
- Andrew_nenakhov 4y agoLikely, because he was thinking of something else. It happens often when playing weaker opponents, you are so concentrated on some genius master plan to defeat an opponent, that when an opponent does something dumb you fail to see it immediately. Of course, my lichess rating is slightly below Carlsen's so I'm probably not the world's best expert on such things. (I don't quite understand what you mean by 'those conversation would never have happened .. ')
- mda 4y agoSo a half drunk Howell blurts a single move to half drunk Carlsen in a bullet game and this is cheating?
