The combination witnessed by the spectators may well become the greatest creative highlight of the currently ongoing and strongly contested tournament in the town of Douglas on the Isle of Man. The fight is mainly for two free spots in the Candidates Tournament, and although it is almost certain that neither of the players in this game will ultimately compete for the top places, I am convinced that the brilliant final course of the game <em>will survive<\/em> even the final results!<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Let's test our skills<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Dear readers, would you be able to find and calculate the consequences of this beautiful combination?

The pair of bishops and the free \u201ab\u2018 pawn compensate for Black's strong pawn centre and control of the open \u201aa\u2018 file. The talented Belarusian youngster here, after 25 seconds (sic!), played exactly what he would certainly choose in his favourite blitz or bullet. \"A standard combination looks good, probably the opponent overlooked the tactic,\" he might have thought.

Just as easily as you succumb, for example, to the charm of <em>one-armed bandits<\/em>, online blitz games, and even more so bullets or hyperbullets (for the less knowledgeable, I will explain that here the opponents have 30 or even 15 seconds for the entire game), have a tendency to lure young chess players into their traps. Of course, I know that for the best \u2013 or rather the fastest \u2013 players this brings financial gains. But as grandmaster Sergei Shipov very rightly explained, an excess of this kind <em>sport<\/em> leads to the fact that in serious chess you are basically no longer able to calculate variations normally during the game after some time!
