You're Resigning When You Should Still Be Fighting

In this episode of Resigning Too Early – Part 2, we analyse a fascinating endgame from the game Magnus Carlsen vs Veselin Topalov (2007).

Topalov resigned believing he could not stop the Qh7–Qh8 idea, assuming the loss of his knight was inevitable.
But was the position really lost?

This video breaks down the critical moment, explores hidden defensive resources, and shows why resigning too early can be a serious practical mistake, even at elite level.

Perfect for players who want to improve their endgame evaluation, defensive skills, and practical decision-making.

♟️ Think deeper. Calculate longer. Don’t resign too soon.
