Magnus Carlsen vs Judit Polgar, Bilbao Blindfold Chess World Cup (2007)
So, we’ve seen a couple blindfold games of Anand, so let’s see if the Champ also has the stuff. I’d say yes. Here he dismantles Judit Polgar. In keeping with the blindfold theme, check out the lovely 25. Rc4! rook sac. Hardly seems fair to use distraction when you’re not even looking at the board.
Amazing!
I do wonder if Polgar “saw” the continuation after the sac, but just let him finish the continuation for posterity’s sake.
