Magnus Carlsen's Resilient Comeback: Sacrificing with Precision and Purpose
In this video, I cover Magnus Carlsen's final round of Tata Steel, sacrificing a piece to beat Arjun Erigaisi with two connected passed pawns. The most amusing aspect of this game was that Carlsen's opponent sacrificed a piece back to deal with the pawns, so sac street really is back and in full force. Purposeful piece sacrifices are a key part of the game and here to stay.
