It wasn't luck. They postponed because they waited for him. They wouldn't have waited for anybody else. Everybody else would just have lost.

@@eljanrimsa5843i was going to write a full transcript after i was done eating breakfast but my comment got pinned so i cant edit it. What he said was “I got stuck in traffic, it took an eternity which was frustrating, but it went well. It was nice that the round got postponed but it was kind of a shock to show up at the board and see 30 seconds. Now im going to go change and hopefully be ready for the next match” «Hyggelig» is a word that is hard to translate into English. I chose lucky due to the context he said it in, but it could be translated in many different ways.

@josetobias8084 Год назад

There were cases where Carlsen has also wait for his opponents to make it to the match, showing true sportsmanship... so, IMO, if they postponed the match those 5 minutes + Kovalev not starting the clock on time: he deserves it - as much as any other player on a world's championship. Okay, they have responsibilities and all, but sometimes there is a thing called LIFE that goes over all of us. I commend Kovalev for his actions, actively and passively taken.

@KingstonTiger Год назад

Right they showed something which was said to be lost in today's world where taking advantage is a routine whether the party gets hurt or not. This is why chess is called a king's game because you have to be mentally smart to be a kind person.

@Pembolog Год назад

Yeah it's a Blitz tournament, a few minutes isn't going go to hurt anything. There should be a rule stipulating the present player CAN postpone the match for up x minutes but they're not obliged to. Notice has this game ended before the others around them?
