    Frankly, the dress code of Carlsen can be defined "smart casual" to me After fining a player and recieving his confirmation that he will wear regular trouthers tomorrow, imho should be enough, whatever is the name of that chess player Strange story

    Could hardly imagine there is someone who might be as great as Hikaru but this Norvegian guy is insanely good 🧐

    Congratulations to Magnus Carlsen, in my stupid opinion 🙂, the best chessplayer in the history of our game 🥇

    To be able after an important defeat in 1972 to stand up and applaud the opponent Fisher who just performed a masterpiece, tells a lot about the person. And in times when people still did such things sincirely, there were no likes existing :)

    This match, played under such unfair conditions for Hikaru, far away from comfortable home chair, was predictable. Congratulations to Firouzja, someone breaking all normal chesscom standarts, being same level player OTB, online from home, online under survalance. Unique nowadays
