Carlsen - Karjakin. The final battle. What is a tiebreaker? And that's why Carlsen is the favorite How the tie break works in chess now
Whether the battle for the world chess crown will reach “Armageddon” is the question of everyone who is watching the fight between the Norwegian Magnus Carlsen and the Russian Sergei Karjakin. Both grandmasters are preparing for a tiebreaker - the main match ended in a draw. The fans' nerves are on edge, and the bookmakers are fueling the excitement. The players have a difficult day ahead, and tomorrow they will also be equal in age.
It was the most short game tournament and generally one of the fastest in history - only 35 minutes. Everyone expected Magnus Carlsen - he played white - to take advantage, but to win, as they say in chess world, “to order” did not work. Having tried to carry out the option “ Berlin defense” and having exchanged almost half of the pieces on the board, after the 30th move the reigning champion agreed to a draw.
“I apologize to the fans who waited longer long game, but today it didn’t work out differently,” he said at the Magnus Carlsen press conference.
Carlsen admitted: he was not ready to take risks. The whole tournament was difficult for him. Seven games were drawn. The eighth was won by Sergey Karjakin with black. The reigning champion managed to recover only in the tenth game, while he played with white. This has never happened to him. In the chess world, Carlsen is called a genius and a “machine.” On the eve of the championship, all bets were placed on him. And by the end it became clear: the champion had hit a tough nut to crack.
“Of course, he is a brilliant chess player, he plays both classical and rapid chess brilliantly. And in general, he is the current world champion, so it is already clear that I managed to play 6:6 with him in classical chess - this is, one might say, a feat. But, of course, I'm not going to stop there. There is a tie-break ahead, a very difficult one, because, in fact, we will play four games in one day - this is the minimum - because if four end in a draw, we will play even additional games. Therefore, a very difficult day lies ahead, but we will prepare,” said Sergei Karyakin.
The draw was held immediately. The chief arbiter simply put the white and black pawns in his pockets. Choice provided to the current champion. Carlsen plays the first game of the tiebreaker with black, Karjakin with white. Then they change. The final will begin with a series of four games of 25 minutes each, with 10 seconds added for each move. If there is a draw, a blitz will follow: no more than ten games of five minutes, plus three seconds for each move. If the blitz does not reveal the strongest, then the players will face the so-called “Armageddon”: White is given five minutes, Black - only four, but in the event of a draw, Black is recognized as the winner. The draw for this game will take place separately. Carlsen would prefer to play with black. Karyakin avoided answering.
“Let’s hope things don’t come to Armageddon. That would be too much,” said the grandmaster.
The current championship has set a record for the number of fans. The game is broadcast online every second by more than two million people from two hundred countries. Sergei Karyakin’s attempt to return the chess crown to Russia and here has created a real boom. Chess schools and sections are sold out, and a flash mob is gaining momentum on social networks: “Let’s support the Russian challenger!”
On the decisive day of the championship, both players will be equal in age. Magnus Carlsen turns 26 years old. He has already played important tournaments twice on his birthday and, by the way, both times in Khanty-Mansiysk. One win and one draw. He estimates his chances this time as 50 to 50. Sergey Karyakin did not make predictions. But he is unlikely to be ready to give his opponent a gift.
Good day, dear friend!
Tiebreaker is used in many sports: For example, volleyball, tennis. Did you hear? Chess was not spared from this popular competition format. You and I are chess players and we simply have to know what kind of animal this is, a tiebreaker in chess, and what it is eaten with.
Moreover, at the 2016 World Championship in the Carlsen-Karjakin match, the fate of the match was decided precisely on the tiebreaker. In the last, 4 games. I hope you remember, and maybe even watched the broadcast.
(subscribe for updates).
What is thisIs this a tiebreaker in chess?
A tiebreaker is a continuation of the match. Origin of the word from English tie and break (complete, stop).
When is the tiebreaker played?
The main part of the match consists of a certain number of games in the classical time format.
If at the end of the main part of the match the winner is not identified, that is, the match ends in a draw, a tie-break begins. Several games with shortened time controls.
Most often there are 4 parties. If one of the players scores 2.5 points (for example, one win and three draws), he is declared the winner.
If the first tiebreaker ends in a 2:2 draw, there may be further options depending on the match regulations:
- Another four-game tiebreaker
- Blitz match of two games
If in this case it was not possible to identify a winner, another blitz mini-match of two games is played. There can only be 5 such matches. No more. If there is a draw here, then there is a decisive game, which is called the terrible word Armageddon.
The usual time control in a tiebreaker is 25 minutes for each player for the entire game, with a few seconds added for each move after this time has elapsed.
There may be variations with control, so you should always check the rules with the judge.
How to play tiebreaker?
The strategy and tactics of playing with shortened control has its own characteristics. Let me give you a couple of recommendations:
Best the enemy of the good
Finding the best plan strongest move, a brilliant combination - all this is wonderful. But it's better to leave it for the classic game format. All these delights require time to think about. And in a tiebreaker, lengthy reflections are an unaffordable luxury. Control is shortened.
Cause problems for your opponent
Try to get a position, especially in the opening, where the opponent must play accurately.There is not much time, and in an unfamiliar position the opponent may get nervous and make mistakes.
For this purpose, many strong chess players have special opening preparations.
For example:
1.d4 d5 2.c4 e5 3.de d4 Albin's Counter Gambit
Boris Spassky's move.
Now Black must play accurately. Most players continue to develop their pieces by inertia. 4…. Kc6 5.f4 Cb4+6.Cd2 K8e7 7. Cd3
As a result, White has a powerful pawn fist in the center and an extra pawn. It is much better for Black 6... f6!, undermining the center. However, in practice almost no one plays like this. The move is not obvious, it bifurcates the pawn, and with time it doesn’t take much time to evaluate.
Common mistakes in tiebreakers
Getting into time pressure
You can lead a party perfectly, with inspiration, strength and beauty. However, chess players have a saying: the most difficult thing is to win a won position. If you don’t leave yourself time to realize your advantage, all your efforts can easily go to waste in a rush of time pressure.
Passion for calculating long options
Accurate calculation requires time and skill. Until you are a grandmaster, you should not overestimate your strength. Even in your “most accurate” calculation, your opponent will almost always have the opportunity to turn “left”.
In a tiebreaker, try to play hard, avoid gross miscalculations and avoid getting into time trouble. But the opponent’s mistakes usually won’t matter.

In the tiebreaker, Carlsen had a noticeable playing advantage and managed his time much better. Nevertheless, after a draw in the second game, no one would have been surprised by Karjakin’s final victory. However, the champion demonstrated outstanding character and skill and still tipped the scales in his favor.
The first match followed the scenario of the classic part: “Spanish” maneuvers, short-term revival in the center, exchanges and a draw. In the second, Carlsen managed to develop pressure on the queenside with White. On move 23, Karjakin had to make a very difficult decision. He preferred passive defense in a position without material, but with pawns on one flank, to fighting a dangerous passed pawn. Carlsen failed to organize an attack with queens and went into an ending with two bishops against a rook, the exact assessment of which experts do not have a clear opinion on. Having lost his advantage in time, Magnus at one point missed an easy win, after which Sergei, by spectacularly discarding all available combat units, achieved a stalemate.
Taking into account all the events that had already happened in the match and earlier in the qualifying cycle, such a smile of fortune could discourage the champion. But in the complex strategic struggle that ensued in the 3rd game, the challenger was the first to succumb to the tension. The exchange of the blockading white knight on move 29 allowed Magnus to get an excellent game on the black squares with a pawn sacrifice. Due to lack of time, Sergei did not find better protection, on the 38th move he made a gross mistake and resigned immediately after his opponent’s response.
In the final rapid match, Karjakin was only satisfied with victory, and for the first time in the match he used the Sicilian defense. However, the scheme chosen by Carlsen stopped any possible activity by Black. Refusing the tacitly proposed repetition of moves, Sergei was forced to worsen his position. Magnus won a pawn, then an exchange, and in the end carried out a two-move mating combination with a queen sacrifice, captivating the eye of a chess player of any level.
In the first game of the break, the opponents repeated nine moves of classic duels number 2 and 11, playing the Spanish woman with 6.d3. Carlsen was the first to evade, instead of 9...Na5 he took the knight to b8. A rare move forced Karjakin to waste a lot of time, and in the middlegame Sergei missed the opportunity to slightly strain his opponent.
Karjakin - Carlsen(first batch)
On 22...exd4 White should have taken the bishop, maintaining pressure due to the weakness of the black king, but the exchanges after 23.Nxd4 Nxd4 24.Bxd4 Rb4 25.Rec1 Qd7 26.Bc3 Rxa4 27.Bxa5 led to a simple draw.
In the second meeting, Carlsen played the opening of the fifth match - the Italian. This time Magnus refrained from moving the b-pawn, moving it later in a more favorable situation. Karjakin usually extinguished White's pressure with simplifications, but in the end he found himself in a rather difficult position with the rook for two minor pieces. At the cost of a pawn, the challenger managed to move into a defensible endgame by exchanging queens, but there were still plenty of opportunities to make mistakes even without taking into account the lack of time to think about it.
Carlsen — Karyakin(second batch)
The mating reconstruction could have been prevented by placing the rook on the sixth row: 72...Rc6 73.Be4 Rb6 74.Bd5+ Kh8, and not 75.Bf8? f5+, or 72...Kh8, and on 73.Be6 - 73...Rc6! with the same idea 74.Bf7? f5+.
Karjakin played 72...Rb7?, and now the quite obvious 73.Be6+ Kh8 74.Bf8 with the threat of Be6-f7 won; missed the chance, however, and Magnus, answering 73.Bd6?, and as a result of the delay, Sergei found a way to force a draw - however, we will note another critical point: 73...Kh8(correct 73...Rb6!) 74.Bf8 Kg8
Unless, when postponing, you can discover subtleties like 75.Bc5! Kh8 76.Be6 Rb8 (threatened Bc5-f8) 77.h5! Ra8
78.g5! hxg5 (78...fxg5 79.Bd4; more stubborn 78...Ra5 79.gxh6 gxh6 80.Be7 Rg5+ 81.Kxh6 Rg7!, but even here White must win after 82.Bd8 Rh7+ 83.Kg6 Rg7+ 84.Kxf6 Rg6+ 85.Kf5 Rh6 86.Bf7, the main thing is not to let the dark-squared one be exchanged) 79.h6 gxh6 80.Be7 Rg8+ 81.Kxh6.
The party followed 75.Ba3 Kh8 76.Be6 Rb6 77.Kf7 Rb7+ 78.Be7, after which Karjakin effectively achieved his goal by donating all the material.
78...h5! 79.gxh5 f5 80.Bxf5 Rxe7+ 81.Kxe7 Kg8 82.Bd3 Kh8 83.Kf8 g5 84.hxg6 1/2
In the next match, Carlsen returned to his interpretation of the Spanish game from the second classical game, and Karjakin was the first to evade. Despite the symmetry, after one exchange a very difficult position arose in the center to play.
Karyakin — Carlsen(third batch)
13.Ng5 Bxd5 14.exd5 Nd7 15.Ne4 f5 16.Nd2 f4 17.c3 Nf5 18.Ne4
On the move 18...Qe8 The champion launched an attack on the royal one. Karjakin did not find an active plan and limited himself to strengthening the second row, but at the same time weakening the black squares, which led to problems.
Instead of protecting the d5 pawn with 29.Qa2, Sergei took 29.Nxf6?!, hoping after 29...gxf6 to drive away the knight from e3 by 30.Bd2. Although Black retained the initiative here by moving his horse to d4, Carlsen played more gracefully: 29...Bxf6!? 30.Ra3 e4! 31.dxe4 Bxc3 32.Rxc3 Qe5, having developed a dangerous initiative on black squares: 33.Rc1 Ra8 34.h3 h6 35.Kh2 Qd4
Here Karjakin missed a resource similar to the one Carlsen missed in the lost eighth game of the match: 36.e5! Qxe5 37.Bd3, and with the active bishop White can feel confident. Witty 36.Qe1(36...Nxc4? 37.Qb4) was coldly received by 36...Qb2! 37.Bf1 Ra2, and here came the decisive review.
Only 38.Rb1 Qf6 39.Be2 allowed to defend! Qg5 40.Qf2, and after 38.Rxc7? Ra1 Sergei had to stop the clock.
In search of revenge, the Russian donned Sicilian clothes. The opening gave the champion's supporters no reason to fear: Magnus confidently played the pattern with 5.f3 and gained a clear advantage in Maroczy's structure. The attack of the black h-pawn created some tension on the king's, but Carlsen successfully simplified the position, practically forcing his opponent to sacrifice an exchange. The compensation was not sufficient, and Magnus brilliantly refuted the desperate attempt at a counterattack, putting a spectacular end to the confrontation.
Carlsen — Karyakin(fourth game)
47.Qxf4 Ra2+ 48.Kh1 Qf2 49.Rc8+ Kh7(or 49...Bf8+ 50.Rxf8+ Kxf8 51.Rxf7+ with quick checkmate)
50.Qh6+!
Karjakin - Carlsen(first batch)
Karjakin - Carlsen(third batch)
In New York, at the World Chess Championship between Norwegian world champion Magnus Carlsen and Russian challenger Sergei Karjakin, a series of twelve mandatory games with classical time control has ended. Now the grandmasters will determine the strongest in a tiebreaker.
A little about the twelfth game. You won’t be able to say much about her even if you really want to. Rapidly played out spanish party. Almost all the pieces were exchanged just as quickly. After the 26th move, there is only one bishop and six pawns on the board on each side. A position arises on the board, which in the slang chess lexicon is defined as a “beaten draw”.
Initially, it was obvious that no one would want to take risks in the final, twelfth game, but even the most skeptical experts and spectators expected to see some kind of confrontation. But the opponents were probably ready to part ways peacefully even after a couple of moves. However, since the rules of the tournament allow the adoption of a peace agreement only after the 30th move, the chess players literally “held out” the game and immediately after overcoming this limit they “signed” a draw, making this match a record short, both in this match and, more interestingly, in the entire history of matches for the title of world chess champion.
On the one hand, Magnus straightforwardly showed everyone the echoes of the winning game from the third game. In the opening, the Norwegian even used a novelty - transferring the knight from b1 to c2 via the a3 square. But, as it turned out, this was only a visual demonstration. The course of the twelfth game showed that the draw was a purely planned result, which suited Carlsen from the very beginning. But Karyakin did not mind. Total: 35 minutes of playing time and 30 moves, respectively.
“Sorry to everyone who was waiting for a longer game today,” Magnus Carlsen said after the game. “Firstly, I didn’t feel confident to win today, and secondly, I want to play a tiebreaker.”
Asked why he was so eager for the tie-break, which fell on his 26th birthday, the Norwegian, in his characteristic manner, intrigued: “You will see it soon.” Carlsen also said that he had previously competed in tournaments on his birthday twice - in 2005 and 2007 at the World Cup in Khanty-Mansiysk, where both performances were favorable for him.
However, more to the point, match organizer Ilya Merenzon apologized for the Norwegian, saying that with the tickets that spectators purchased for the 12th round of the match, it will be possible to come to the Futlon Market building on Wednesday.
“This was a very interesting match for me; to survive a draw with the world champion and the strongest player on the planet over twelve rounds of classical chess is already a feat. And I will not stop,” said Sergei Karyakin.
During the press conference, the chief referee of the tournament, international FIDE arbiter Takis Nikolopolos held a draw for the upcoming tie-break, following which it was determined: Karjakin will start a series of four games of rapid chess with white.
We asked the senior FIDE coach, coach Sergei Karyakin, and international grandmaster Vladimir Potkin to sum up the results of the classical part of the match.
- Vladimir, one cannot help but ask about the twelfth game: “What was that?”
What happened in today's game is perhaps known only to Magnus. One can only assume that he outlined one plan, but during the game something confused him, and he decided to transfer the fate of the match to a tiebreaker.
It’s too early to give estimates. But the fact that the classical part of the match ended in a draw is already a great achievement for Russian chess. No one has ever been able to resist Magnus at such long distances. From the very beginning of the match, he tried to seize the initiative, but was faced with a very powerful defense, and later he even admitted that he managed to draw this part of the match. Of course, this result is a huge work that was carried out throughout the entire time after the Candidates Tournament by the entire coaching staff with the great support of the Russian Chess Federation and its head Andrei Vasilyevich Filatov, with the support of Sergei’s family and loved ones, as well as everyone who believed and continues to believe in him.
- Did everything go according to the scenario that you had prepared?
It is quite difficult to make everything go according to dictation when you are faced with such strong opponent, like Magnus, and the brilliant work of the team that has been with him for many years. Of course we had overall strategy for the match, and we stuck to it. But after each game we made some adjustments, tried to optimize Sergei’s preparation and form.
- What can you say about the upcoming fight, which will reveal the strongest?
Firstly, a tiebreaker is a separate type of chess, and, undoubtedly, it will be very entertaining. I think all the spectators are just glad that it will take place. For our part, we have already outlined a certain strategy, and we will stick to it. Over the weekend we will try to accumulate as much strength as possible so that nothing distracts Sergei, we will tune in for the best. There is a positive atmosphere in our team, and there is no doubt that Sergei will be determined and will fight until the last bullet.
Let us note that, indeed, rapid chess and blitz for chess players are simply other types of chess, even having their own codes in the All-Russian Sports Register of Sports, which differ from the classics.
“Karyakin has more chances in a tiebreaker, he is more experienced in such situations,” said the 12th world chess champion Anatoly Karpov. The words of the legendary world champion are confirmed by many facts: what is Karjakin’s tiebreaker at the 2015 World Cup against Peter Svidler worth? In addition, Sergei was the world champion in rapid chess in 2012, when Carlsen took second place in this tournament.
In the tiebreaker, Karjakin and Carlsen will play four games of rapid chess with a time control of 25 minutes + 10 seconds per move for each opponent. If the score of the match remains equal, the opponents will have two more “blitz” games with a control of 5 minutes + 3 seconds per move for each player. Then, if necessary, four more blitz matches of two similar games will be played. And with a completely incredible result, if these ten games do not reveal a winner, the fate of the match will be decided by the so-called “Armageddon”, where White has 5 minutes, Black - 4 minutes with the addition of 3 seconds for each move, a draw is counted in favor of Black.
World Championship. Karjakin missed the crown. How it was

02:55. We are finishing an online report about how Sergey Karjakin fought for the chess crown with Magnus Carlsen and lost in a decent fight. He will have a chance for revenge - Karjakin will enter the Candidates Tournament without qualifying. For now, you should just say thank you to him for making the match so interesting, and congratulate Magnus Carlsen. And happy victory, and happy birthday.
02:50. TV journalist Zhanna Agalakova made her conclusion following the match: “Chess is gambling. Strong, young and convenient - you can play chess on your smartphone at any time. The figure of Karjakin certainly played a role in the incredible interest that exists now. A Russian has not been a world champion since 2007, when Kramnik lost the crown, and in our country there is a wave of patriotism for various reasons. There are many additional circumstances: Sergei is from Crimea and became a Russian citizen because he had no prospects in Ukraine. What needs to be done to maintain popularity? Yes, not much has already been done. Many people have pulled chess out of their closets, installed apps on their phones, and once they get into it, it’s very difficult to stop. You don't need to be a grandmaster - just play and have fun. And it’s better than being on social networks.”
20:30. Before the tension reaches its critical point, you can joke a little. "The Blitz goes into Armageddon" and Kirill Zangalis approves of the joke.
20:20. Work is slowly starting in the studio, from where the match is being broadcast together with famous international grandmasters.
20:10. Two hours before the start of the tiebreaker, the press center is not crowded.
20:00. The world champion title will be played out by tiebreaker for the fourth time in history. This happened previously in 1998, when Anatoly Karpov beat Vishy Anand; in 2006, when Vladimir Kramnik defeated Veselin Topalov; and in 2012, when Anand beat Boris Gelfand.
19:50. Chess expert Vladimir Barsky called tiebreak a very special genre. “Both Karjakin and Carlsen play brilliant rapid chess. When the game starts, we will see who feels better and looks more confident. Tiebreaker is a special genre of chess in which the stakes are very high. A simple rapid chess tournament is one thing, but in this meeting the world crown will be at stake,” Barsky.
19:40. Today, much will depend not only on psychology, but also on physical fitness. Sergei Karjakin was prepared for this match by the famous Russian tennis player Anna Chakvetadze. “Sergei asked if I could make a list of special exercises to prepare him for the training camp. I developed a set of exercises that we practiced, taking into account the specifics of chess. He was in good physical shape, he ran fast, but he also got tired quickly. After classes I tightened up. When I left for the training camp, I could no longer carefully keep my finger on the pulse. I hope that the form has not gone away, because you just need to maintain it,” Chakvetadze.
19:30. Three-time winner of the Chess Olympiads, grandmaster Alexey Dreev, assessed the chances of the champion and challenger in today's tiebreaker. “I believe that Karjakin and Carlsen’s chances of winning in the current situation are absolutely equal. Both chess players are excellent at both rapid and blitz. But the long journey of 12 classical games tired and exhausted both of them,” Dreev said in the “Championship”.
19:20. 10 years ago, today's rivals would not even dream of such rooms.
19:10. Most likely, today grandmasters will have no time to run into the rest rooms. But just in case, they look like this. With a window - Karjakin's room, without a window - Carlsen's room.
19:00. Today, in our broadcast, an online board will be available to readers of the “Championship”.

18:30. The VIP area looks like this. If you wish, you can also play chess here.
18:20. We have prepared material about this cheerful girl who will support her husband in the VIP zone.
18:10. Sergei Karyakin’s wife Galia said that the preparation for the championship match was much more difficult for her husband than the match itself. “The preparation was more difficult from a psychological point of view than the match itself. The fact is that the preparation included training camps and minor competitions. Preparing for the game with Carlsen, Sergei spent almost all his time at training camps, for two to three weeks. This is much more common than before he became a title contender. The process was noticeably more intense and richer than usual,” Galia, who is currently in New York.
18:00. But in this test you will not find the answer to the question of what the Bulgarian manager Silvio Danailov has to do with Sergei Karyakin. It turns out that it is the most direct. In this photo, a very young Karjakin is sitting on the lap of world champion Veselin Topalov, and next to him are Danailov and FIDE world champion Ruslan Ponomarev.
17:53. And before the match started, we did a test about its main characters.

17:33. There were no scandals in this match; the opponents treated each other with great respect. Carlsen's demarche, who left the press conference after the eighth game, can be ignored. But in history chess matches For the world crown, such peace was not always the case.
17:20. The opponents will play at this table with these figures. In the first quick game, Sergei Karjakin has White.
17:10. There are still five hours before the start of the game, so you can calmly study the next International Chess Federation, in which he remained in first position, and Sergey Karjakin rose to sixth.
17:00. The world champion will be determined today in a tiebreaker. The strongest rated Ukrainian grandmaster Pavel Elyanov, in an exclusive interview with “Championship,” emphasized that he does not consider this method of determining the title holder to be fair. For what reason and what alternatives are there - read in his interview.
16:50. These are the chess sets at the entrance to the building. It seems that no one tried to set them on fire, but a fire extinguisher would not hurt.
16:40. The match takes place on the top floor of the former Fulton Market fish market building.
16:30. Our correspondent Andrei Ivanov will talk about everything interesting directly from the scene.
16:20. By the way, today is Magnus Carlsen’s birthday. The Norwegian grandmaster turned 26 years old. In previous championship matches with Vishy Anand, he gave himself great gifts. We hope that today Sergey Karyakin will also give him a gift - an autograph from the new world champion.
16:10. To begin with, we invite everyone who follows our online to answer the main question.
