That is where your ignorance to the game of chess is prevalent.
And your ignorance not to behave a moron
Oh the irony 🤣

Ps - There should be the word ‘like’ after behave.

Very exciting "sport". 90% of games are draws. Worse than soft tip with the huge bull FFS

That’s all very well, but I want to know what opening Will it be tomorrow when Magnus Carlsen is playing white?
Sicilian defence? Ruy Lopez- Berlin defence ?

Chess is racist at its foundations. Why does white start.

At the very least there should be a coin flip to determine the start

I doubt both of them would want to go through the mental torture of the previous game. Nepo has got 3 more games as white, he has got to really go for it in at least one of them.

One win will almost certainly be decisive
Carlsen very rarely loses a classical game

No quick games, early draw offers are prohibited in the world championship matches.

As a player too (between rating 1800 and 2000 so I'm quite good) it's hard to imagine for me if you want draw from the first move how to move 40 without doing anything serious in a game.

They can play positions from memory but I meant more they raced through to the final position from move 30
