Such was the fate of online chess player ego123 one Saturday morning hiding from the deadly virus.Now for the boring part: The opening was a French Exchange variation in reverse which can be quite dangerous for Black according to Watson's book.
How did such a strong player allow a longer version of the Scholar's mate on h7 square? Carlsen himself has played the slightly more refined version called the Terrorist opening pioneered by Enrique Rios(last I heard this San Antonio homie was cashing in with Poker)
The very slow Ne7-Ng6 maneuver led to a hanging Knight due f7 pawn being pinned by the c4 Prelate(Phallic). Also 3 minute time control is often fast non-thinking chess that can lead to these kind of disasters. Alex Kundin presents an exceptionally entertaining version of this!
