This year's Norway Chess featured only the cream of the cream players. Magnus, Fabi, Hikaru, Ding and Alireza. Pragg was nowhere near them in terms of experience. He defeated all five of them in the same tournament. I can't remember of any other tournament ever in which a single player defeated these top five players. Further, he defeated Magnus and Fabi in Classical. Wow. Pragg is going to be like Magnus in a few years, if he already isn't.

I also agree that fact gukesh is overhype bcz of candidates but i also think pragg is a overall better player whether it rapid, blitz, or classical gukesh is just good at classical his rapid & blitz rating are below 2630 and pragg control his nerve in crucial situation whereas gukesh always fails to do that , Pragg record against best player like Magnus, hikaru, nodirbek, ding are way better than gukesh

[@anishmandal7371]

​@@leechap3​ dominant position mainly i thnk. after rook rakes bishop or if king takes bishop its rook takes pawn on e4. Thats the main line first , NOT after as king cant move to G file as it's blocked by queen and black diagonal is blocked as well also H file white pawn is preventing queen from blocking the G file.
