I can't believe Firouzja missed Rxb8 at the 2:51 mark. A grandmaster at that level should see moves like that to capture the opponent's Queen.

Well done Epic Cheese on finding that INCREDIBLE (!!) cringey footage of Wesley So going in for a kiss on Kaja Snare! This rarest of sightings is surely what caused our favorite the Rooktangle to make an appearance. What a treat!!!

[@raylopez99]

It looks that way but I think I read he was trying to get a better angle for something chess related...or so they say. :) Looking like a fool in front of Ms. Kaja Snare however is no sin in my book, happens to the best of us.

Great Game James quite a few misses from both players but pretty resilient play from Alireza hanging tough in the endgame Magnus probably felt he would win on time anyway I think he just wanted to play fast moves and keep the pressure on Alireza tight game fun to watch Thanks again have a good one night or day in the UK 😊♟️‼️

Wasn’t so much straight up Blunders ??
