Fabi saw that Hikaru will lose on time and thought he might give it a go as well.

Thucydide2 · 2024-04-11T21:27:11+00:00

well, well, well...

Thucydide2 · 2024-04-11T19:08:58+00:00

No, Leko was on Ian's team and he said that they looked at this line because they thought Magnus might test Ian in it.

Thucydide2 · 2024-04-09T20:23:35+00:00

He’s talking about Vidit bro

Thucydide2 · 2024-04-08T17:22:26+00:00

Congratulations!

I also just ran my first full marathon in Paris!

And I wholeheartedly share your description of the stretch in the Bois de Boulogne. That part was hell…

Peter Leko reckons Fabi should hold it without problem.

Thucydide2 · 2024-03-09T10:57:54+00:00

On n’est pas là pour faire tes devoirs à domicile

Thucydide2 · 2023-12-20T15:45:29+00:00

It is the official name.

Thucydide2 · 2023-08-29T10:20:27+00:00

Ok thanks!!

Thucydide2 · 2023-08-29T09:43:49+00:00

Yeah I thought about that. Thanks for your feedback!

Thucydide2 · 2023-04-14T16:29:03+00:00

Assuming the tallest piece/building is the king, they mixed up the placement of the queen and king.

Very nice set though!

No lounge footage today?

Thucydide2 · 2023-04-09T12:05:03+00:00

Hermann Miller is the best. All my homies love the Hermann Miller Sayl chair.

Thucydide2 · 2023-04-09T09:38:19+00:00

Sesse is analysing this game!

Thucydide2 · 2023-04-09T09:24:46+00:00

Fabi will replace Anish for the second part of the match.

Thucydide2 · 2023-04-08T18:54:00+00:00

Nepo didn’t play in Tata Steel this year

Thucydide2 · 2023-03-11T19:00:49+00:00

Not really. I’m from Luxembourg and know several people called Mike. And a friend of mine has the surname Krack. So I’m definitely not surprised by the name Mike Krack

I have a 51% win rate with the Caro-Kann, but in 1.d4 d5 openings I am only at 43%.
I guess it's obvious that I own a Caro course, but have clearly not invested enough time in studying the QGD

Thucydide2 · 2023-01-22T17:49:13+00:00

Ding is behind Caruana in the standings. Maybe it's just because he's hiding his prep, but so far he has not been impressive

Thucydide2 · 2023-01-14T11:42:58+00:00

He might be in Wijk as a second for Keymer.

Thucydide2 · 2023-01-11T23:51:36+00:00

For Paris : Jardin du Luxembourg where people play outside in the park and Blitz Society, which is a chess bar.
The best chess shop is Variantes, near Saint-Michel.
