The commentary was fantastic! Hats off to GM Evgenij Miroshnichenko!!! He improved the commentary by 1000% IMHO. A great improvement over the Cairns Cup! Keep up the good work. 😊

[@vibhor5015]

why was Deac so nervous? He needs to get his emotions in control. He was leaving the board with seconds on clock. Strange.

[@abhiramparameswaran570]

You could have asked Gukesh about what did he think of f5 where there were multiple instances where he could have played the move. And also how after Ne4, B×e4 was a mistake because black had b5 at the end of it

At the promo at the beginning Chirila says "Hello from me - GM Christina Chirila and by my co-host Anastasiya Karlovich..." She is a Women Grandmaster, buddy. You could've said it.

Ooooh, real chess. Blitz is least error chess, but classic chess is so deep!!!! Before you comment.... I don't care what you think.

[@ahmetmehmetali9977]

Thats true. Chess must be deep thinking.

[@tezkalow]

classic degrades into blitz when time runs out. look at gukesh-bogdan's game where both blundered left and right with 88 vs 82 accuracy lmao.

[@billsicander7371]

So…why is this comment for ? Just stupid, you don’t know chess game
