Gukesh opted for the Fried Liver Attack from the Italian Game, and Magnus Carlsen countered it in the most brutal way possible with a tricky variation. Carlsen employed the Ulvestad Variation to counter the Fried Liver Attack, which arises after Black plays 5...b5, attacking White's bishop on c4. This variation has shown impressive results, with Black achieving a win rate of at least 54%. Watch the full video lesson for a detailed analysis. You’ll see how both Gukesh and Carlsen played precise moves in the opening, maintained intense tension throughout, and witness Carlsen’s brilliant rook sacrifice to gain a significant positional advantage. ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ► Chapters 00:00 Magnus Carlsen's Brutal Counter Against The Fried-Liver Attack 00:05 Gukesh vs Carlsen 00:48 Ulvestad Variation, 5...b5 01:51 If White plays 6.Bxb5 03:45 6.Bf1 played by Gukesh 05:16 Black's attacking ideas 07:35 Rook sacrifice alert! 08:44 Gukesh sets a trap for Carlsen 11:00 Final moments of the game ► Follow RCA on social media Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RemoteChessAcademy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gm.igorsmirnov/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gmigorsmirnov X (Twitter): https://x.com/GMIgorSmirnov/ #IgorNation #ChessOpenings #MagnusCarlsen #Gukesh #FriedLiver
