If you're still 1700 then there's no way you would ever have become a GM even with coaching.

He has to guard against this two move mate

Sports / Re: Magnus Carlsen Vs Femi Balogun - Chess Cup Match 2017 by yorex2011: 3:21pm On Sep 03, 2017
Femi has been crushed...

He has weaknesses on his queenside...his attack in the queenside is passive...He will prolly resign in the next couple of moves

Femi appears to be making subtle inaccuracies, now c4 is a good break for white

Magnus plays Qg4 seeking Queen exchange??

Should Femi accept? I think so.... as this will prolly help him draw (generally queens off the board become drawish with accurate play)

Femi behind on time. In times like this magnus will start grinding the guy slowly. Lets hope Femi doesnt start making errors. cos the longer the game goes on, the more you go into magnus comfort territory

Balogun plays f5...Game is balanced and Balogun is doing great. I think he was lucky to play carlsen cos of the way he plays.. if twas all those GM wey their head dey hot them for don dey nack am akpako..

Carlsen is a slow crushing player, so even if it takes a while, you go still lose

As expected he develops his b1 knight to a3.

Good books for black are a6 and f5

Black's Knights can play a vital row the toggle for the center

Balogun playing quite well... Chose Qc8

Carlsen needs to start looking at his remaining knight and bishop at his back rank who have not been developed
Sports / Re: Magnus Carlsen Vs Femi Balogun - Chess Cup Match 2017 by yorex2011: 1:58pm On Sep 03, 2017
Magnus plays Bb5, trying to instigate c6 from black. As this will allow the d5 pawn to clear a the d file for his D1 rook mounting some presure on blacks d pawn.

Black can play either c8 or d8 as c6 is completely out of it
