Carlsen- Nepo WC match, Nov 26 start
https://chess24.com/en/read/news/carlsen-and-nepomniachtchi-young-rivals
Thoughts on this? Coming this month. I'd say it's about 60-40 odds to Carlsen. Started 11/12/21 at 04:04:52 by Bibs « Pages 1 2 3 all » |

Carlsen-Nakamura Chess 960 Match
Did you see this incredible defense by Carlsen, largely done on the blitz increment? Unbelievable--Lasker-like resourcefulness in defense and Fischer-like accuracy in the end. Amusingly, the game sta...
