I rooted for Kramnik in the 2006 championship and respected him over Topolov due to the way that all went down. But his recent statements are too much. He doesn't seem to understand that the chess world has moved on and he's no longer as strong relative to other players. There are many more strong chess players in the world now than in 2006, especially online. And as for people playing weaker OTB than online, actually, for many younger players who grew up playing online, they are more accustomed to the online environment, and feel calmer, and more confident and at their best versus when facing an opponent OTB in a playing hall. Duh. Not everything is explained by cheating.
I believe it because he's streaming and while streaming you don't want no air but he was doing something else atm so his streamer brain repeated the same thing without him realizing
I genuinely don’t understand how these top players can calculate so fast. 2 hr classical games are one thing but watching them play bullet is unreal. G
And then a legendary move happens...(complete silance)...he...saxraficed THE ROOOOOOKKK!!!!!!!!but look this is a briliant move becouse if he takes then take take take and the mate but if he doesnt do it then it would be a checkmate in one Briliant speech by levi
57:18 "Yea it was bc3, queen c2, king he walks in on queen g2 theres like some rook f1 and whites threatening to play queen f6, SACK the queen, and make a checkmate with the pawn on f6..."
