Can’t they find a rug for Alireza to pace on?
Fun tournament so far. The post Magnus world is proving exciting and wide open with 6 contenders, all of which will have a shot at the championship. Will be a big round 11 with the top 6 all playing each other. Feels like playoffs where a loss could eliminate someone.
Am amazed at how these players get into time trouble starting with 2 hours and then receiving extra time and increment after 40 moves. Must be filled with anxiety deciding between similar looking moves while trying to understand their opponent’s motives.
