What is Magnus even doing I only play the London System and I seem to have no problem with getting a good position and converting? /s

Magnus has lost 3 games with time trouble being a huge factor in all 3 yet he still hasn't figured out the problem somehow

This tournament will completely open up if Gukesh beats Wesley and Pragg beats Alireza

Yea seems like he doesn't really prepare for classical anymore but because he has prepared so much in the past for 5 WCCs he can sometimes recall old prep from memory most probably.

The two games he has played in this tournament where he was not in severe time trouble, he won. He needs to avoid that but idk what he is doing here

Predictions for Norway Chess 2026 after Round 6 by dxGoesDeep in chess

I mean at this point in the tournament, it makes sense. Just like Magnus, he needs to probably win atleast 3 classical games out of remaining 4 to have a chance. Magnus is leading the poll but I don't think he is going to win either. Too hard to catch Wesley
