I check this because Gotham said he lives in a giant house.

It might be bc Gotham is from New York and Westly lives in Minnesota. The average house size is much different.

@AlexanderNevermind888 3 года назад

Wesley just comes across as a genuinely nice guy. He's probably the only player that I root for against almost everyone. He doesn't seem to have the typical chess player arrogance and always seems very humble and thankful for his blessings. His style isn't exactly my favorite, but his disposition makes him one of my favorite players right now.

@mauort6870 3 года назад

Out of curiosity what don't you like about his style?

@AlexanderNevermind888 3 года назад

I didn't say I didn't like his style, only that it isn't my favorite. I'm a fan of dynamic chess...Kasparov, Alekhine, of today's GMs, Nepomniatchchi, Firouzja. Wesley is very solid, which works at the upper-GM levels and makes him hard to beat, which is a plus. But I've seen him draw some games by holding on to solidity when a more active approach would have given him the full point instead of the half point. It's the reason why Carlsen is the best in the world right now. When he feels he has an advantage, he will grind it out until you submit.
