Nakamura, Hi – Carlsen, M.

2789 2014 · Black wins (resignation, time or agreement)

Hikaru Nakamura, the fiery American known for his fighting spirit and extraordinary nerves — particularly in fast time controls — takes on Carlsen in a 2014 Nimzo-Indian. At the time, Nakamura was one of the very few players in the world with a respectable score against the World Champion, powered by his relentless will to complicate the game. The contrast between Nakamura’s explosive style and Carlsen’s clinical precision makes for a game with zero quiet moments.
