Splendor Strategy - Timing & Tempo

Playing against grandmaster ShanZhu, while talking about the "Tempo" of the game.
I play competitive 1:1 Splendor on: spendee.mattle...

Great stuff. Great analysis. Keep it coming. :) I personally would have gone 6 blue reserve but the 4,2,1 reserve makes lot of sense as. I guess I would have been more worried about efficient blues taken from me. I wonder if it made sense at some point for your opponent to take away the efficient blues from you. I felt opponent was mostly playing his game. Though with inefficient moves he wasn’t very far off in pts.

I'm in shock that at such high level ELO, Shanzhu is making plays collecting over the ten gem limit and having to return excess gems. Never would have expected to see moves like that at such high rankings. Were his options really that bad at those times??
