Armenian Grandmaster Haik M. Martirosyan (white) delivered a surprising result today against none other than Magnus Carlsen (black) himself. Carlsens bet to promote his pawn on d3 led to a weak kingside, which turned out undefendable. Can you calculate the lines which lead either to mate or significant material advantage?
Another win was achieved by GM Jorden v Foreest (white) vs Uzbek’s #1 GM Nodirbek Abdusattorov (black). Allegedly Abdusattorov miscalculated a capture sequence after taking a pawn with Nxc4? How will white gain an advantage in this position?
