In this video I am analyzing a brilliant attacking chess game played by 11 year old Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa. Just from the opening the young chess prodigy manages to launch a dangerous queen-side attack and beats his experienced opponent GM Axel Bachmann in 18 moves. After this game Praggnanandhaa raised a huge media attention becoming a chess celebrity! Famous chess writer Leonard Barden posted on English Chess Forum: “India’s 11-year-old youngest ever IM with the unpronounceable name has this afternoon won an 18-mover against a 2645-rated GM which will go round the world and be compared to Fischer’s Game of the Century.” In the end of the video as usual you can solve the daily puzzle!
