Magnus never skips Chessday.

[@pranavkardak1768]

Magnus should write books on Handling Pressure once he retires.

[@RazeenMujarrab]

Magnus looks likes he's drunk or hungover, just woke up, hair in a mess, just overall in shambles. Fabi, excellent health, winner mindset, hardworker, fresh hair, and still loses from -10. The world is unfair, because Magnus is god.

Magnus the greatest!!!

[@nicbentulan]

Who would do better in classical 9LX armageddon w/ auction & increment? Team Axis Wesley, Bobby, Hans, Sergey, Vlad, Nepo Team Allies Magnus, Garry, Hikaru, Daniil, Veselin, Liren

[@khmer5o3]

Damn Fabiano is pissed at himself.. the subconscious to grab his jacket for the chair and walk off. Sheesh.

He’s so much better than his peers it must be a little boring for him.

[@Tiy51]

But is he ? I’m a huge magnus fan and Ik him being a higher rating by a good amount means he is the best but every game was close with Fabi. He lost pretty badly to Wesley So also

[@tim1444]

@@Tiy51 I mean, he has all the records to his name mostly. He is by far the best.

[@Tiy51]

@@tim1444 I know he is the best , I’m questioning if he is by far the best right now. I’ll be happy if he is lmao . It’s more a question than a statement I’ve only been following chess for a year

[@tm9316]

Magnus salmon intake must be examined further.

[@stagna1959]

It does not happen often that in top GM game black has -16 advantage , he loses it and whole game. All he had to do was to play 78...Qa7+ and it would have been over very soon because after few forced moves black is whole queen and 2 extra passers up . Check your checks and captures first ! like mr. Howell always says . But black was greedy checked with rook, took the queen right there, got queen vs rook endgame, but allowed 2 white passers to survive which caused him lot of trouble later .

[@Fadhilah-gk2mz]

its obviously always easier to said than done, especially under time pressure and against 2 pass pawn that almost reach the backrack and without the engine, it is not easy to defend

2022 WFRCC: Magnus, Hikaru & FIDE cheated Wesley So, who should've been 2020, 2022 & 2024 candidates wildcard because Wesley So won in classical games (45+15=60) while Hikaru won in rapid games (25+5+2.5=32.5min). Source: p1w4Rr-1fL --- That's the summary. The ff is the long version. --- 2 questions Q1 Why isn't it unfair to Wesley So that FIDE lowered the WFRCC time controls from 60min in 2019 to 32.5min in 2022 ( w/o changing the name of course to 'rapid WFRCC'. if they change the name, then there's no problem ) considering

[@nicbentulan]

the ff things? Thing1 In the 2019 WFRCC, Hikaru & Magnus did better in 15+2=17min games than 60min games. Wesley So did better in vice-versa. Thing2 Afaik - (0min,10min) = blitz - [10min,60min) = rapid - [60min,120min) = classical but unrated for 2200+ players. - [120min,infinity) = classical Hence, Wesley So should be the CLASSICAL WFRCC and then Hikaru is the rapid WFRCC. Wesley So beat Magnus 3x CLASSICAL games in a row HUMAN VS HUMAN, no computer prep! Thing3 Yet for some reason FIDE insists that both 32.5min & 60min are 'slow rapid' while 17min is 'fast rapid'. They didn't even define these terms. Check out the maths here: I see only 2 reasonable definitions for slow & fast rapid. -Def1 - Slow rapid means unrated classical [60,120) & fast rapid is rapid [10,60). This means: - There's no classical WFRCC. - Wesley So is slow rapid WFRCC. - Hikaru is fast rapid WFRCC. - Hence, Hikaru is NOT a successor of Wesley So. -Def2 - Fast rapid & slow rapid cut up rapid [10,60) into resp [10,35) and [35,60). 2 issues here: - 60min is not in either of these intervals. - Also, 32.5 is in [10,35). So neither 60 nor 32.5 are slow rapid. Lol. This means: - There's no slow rapid WFRCC. - Wesley So is classical WFRCC. - Hikaru is rapid WFRCC, specifically fast rapid WFRCC. - Hence, again, Hikaru is NOT a successor of Wesley So. - Def3 - The definitions must be: Since 15+2=17 is fast rapid, we must have - [10,X) fast rapid & - [X,120) slow rapid, for some 17 < X < 32.5. Like say X is some arbitrary number like X=20 or X=30. Lol yeah right!! Thing4 Conclusion: I believe the 2022 WFRCC was a conspiracy to get Hikaru / Magnus to win in parallel w/ the Hans Niemann situation. Think about this: - Magnus quits the 2022 Sinquefield Cup. 1 day later, Hans Niemann, an American rival of Magnus, is harmed in another tournament, the 2022 CGC in that Hans is removed! - Magnus quits the 2023 WCC. 1 month later, Wesley So, an American rival of Magnus, is harmed in another tournament, the 2022 WFRCC in that the time controls are reduced w/o changing the name! I hardly believe this is a coincidence. I bet Magnus even directed (or conspired w/) FIDE to remove (and hence cheat) Sergey (not American but still Jewish like Hans & Bobby) from the 2022 candidates. Sergey's replacement Liren even cited the ff as role models: Magnus, Garry & Veselin instead of Wesley, Bobby & Vlad ( as described in FlNsFKeq-iE ). Of course there's no conspiracy at all if FIDE just says 'Ok Wesley So is classical WFRCC & Hikaru is rapid WFRCC. Sorry for the confusion!' For chess: The ability to play chess is the sign of a gentleman. The ability to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life. For 9LX: The ability to play 9LX is the sign of a gentleman or a lady. The ability to play 9LX well is the sign that you're not Magnus Carlsen. LOL!!!! Q2 Consequently, why shouldn't Wesley So have been a wildcard in 2020, 2022 or 2024 candidates as the 2019 WFRCC winner considering -Fabi was a wildcard in the 2019 WFRCC quarter-finals as the 2018 WCC runner-up, not by FRC virtue -Hikaru & Magnus were 2019 WFRCC quarter & semi-finals wildcards, by FRC virtue for the 2018 unofficial WFRCC but lol the 2018 game itself was obviously for chess virtue ? P.S. Wesley So on Lex Fridman xcdhgq P.P.S. Interview while imprisoned p1w4Rr-1Uk Pablo Mercado: So what is your advice to the Filipino chess players? Uncle Bobby Fischer: My advice is to give up chess and take up Fischer Random. - 2004Oct11, 15 years before nephew Wesley So became the inaugural WFRCC in CLASSICAL time controls.
