4 Must-See Games from the Men’s Round 5 at the Budapest Olympiad

Hey thereeeeeee! 

In recent days, I've been watching the Olympiad games with some friends, and a few days ago, I published a blog post about round 1 of the women's teams. However, today I thought of bringing you 4 games that caught the attention of many in round 5 of the men's section.

I picked these games for specific reasons. The first one we will undoubtedly see is a "must-see" in this Olympiad, Diego Flores' victory against the strong Leinier.

We’ll also look at Gukesh’s game, where he takes advantage of a blunder by the black pieces, which could prove very useful to you: Ch5.

Another exciting game is that of Rapport and Ivanchuk, who dive into complications in the Grünfeld, and it will be worthwhile to learn from this game.

Finally, I’d like to share how L'Ami imposes his advantage with a pair of bishops against the Cuban Grandmaster Elier Miranda.

Let’s check them out and see what you think! Once again, if you have another favorite game from this round, feel free to comment!

I hope you find these games as captivating and educational as I did. As always, feel free to share your thoughts and any other standout games from this round. Enjoy the games and See you around!

Hi 

Let me tell you a little bit about my chess background. I started playing chess at the age of 8 because I wanted to defeat my best friend at the time. What can I say? I am super competitive, but I have become a better person now!

So after a lot of chess lessons, I became a provincial and national youth champion. Also, I got second place in the Pan American U-20 Championship (2012) and 10th place in the World Youth Chess Championship (2011), and I earned the FIDE Master title at 15. My peak FIDE rating was 2190.


At the moment, I am not playing OTB that much because I am a full-time chess coach.

Well, let's speak about what the blog is about! I have decided to write some articles about my chess experience, my students' stories, and whatever I can share with you that has to do with chess, basically.


Finally, I hope you like at least a few of them, and I am open to any suggestions! So see you around and make your opponents cry, not your friends! happy
