I love this series. I found the overt and nasty criticism of Nepo totally out of order. No match experience and playing the most experienced match player of the era... Carlsen just wore him out and beat him by shear attrition. Nepo IMO did extremely well considering the difference between the two. This series as well as being fascinating sheds light on just how hard chess is.

Again very nice commentary and this is perhaps the place to put some doubts on many other commentators who show and tell the moves at the speed of light,giving no adstruction at all and are ,to my horror,widely applauded.Keep up the slow pace and in behalf of many viewers you might even slow it down and even be more elaborate.

Thank you Daniel - really entertaining and interesting. I've heard many times that for amateurs (like me), the best way to improve their play is to avoid blunders - thereafter immersing themselves in opening theory etc! I imagine GMs have various layers of (unconscious?) safety filters before making a move, and so it is fascinating to see these blunders at the world championship level (with little or no time pressure in the early middle-game) - as you say, the pressure so enormous that these filters are not working properly. It must be terrifying for the player involved - when skills you take for granted fail, akin to suddenly not being able to see or stand upright.

Great insight as usual. You just omitted to mention the key, obvious to educated players - in both cases there was a pair of unprotected pieces (and near checks as a bonus). Unprotected pieces were not directly hit, so alarms in their heads failed.

That move actually wasn't that bad. Everyone thinks ... Bxh2 on its own was bad 'cause it traps the bishop, but it was only losing a number of moves down the road. Not a 1-move blunder in the style of Nepo

@@JPCPSeto Right, but his tactical bishop rescue untrap variation failed as he missed a move. It's a blunder because he fell into a typical trap. What is more relevant was he could still have saved the game by setting up a fortress, but that's not the win he was aiming for, so that move lost him a point and his winning streak.

@@JPCPSeto Exactly. I've seen most people assign 29...Bxh2 as either speculative (!?) or more often dubious (?!). But not a mistake (?) let alone an outright blunder (??). Honestly, it was just Fischer being Fischer, being a true materialist and trying really hard to unbalance the position to go for the win. In the end he didn't get quite enough compensation for the win, but he still had the draw in hand.

It's all to do with Knights. I know both blunders are pretty basic, but it is so easy to go tactic blind against Knights in any position. I know personally, by far most of my blunders are a missed Knight tactic, even when I am trying to be careful of such tactics I can still fall into one.

This is exactly why the best question asked in the press conference following the most recent World Championship match was one asked by Andrea Botez, when she asked Magnus "How does the Knight move?". She is obviously a proper chess historian, making sure the World Champion doesn't end up in a PowerPlayChess video. ;)

Honestly, i beleive the blunder was f6:e5. At least pre computer era commentaries said that - i am old😀. Kasparov knew that d6:e5 is positionally a must, more or less, and then black can hope for a draw. I think he unconsciously just didnt accept reality this moment. Chess is a psychological game!
