Think he just generally plays fast and sometimes it's a weakness.


I have that in common with him. And about the only thing!

Wow. I just watched the end of that on the video, not knowing the result. Blunder-tastic!

Certainly makes me feel better about my own failures in a few live matches. Pressure is tough.

I watched the Nakamura review and the analysis by Oranj was spot on, lol.

I've also just watched it. He's rightly scathing in his assessment of their decision making at key moments.

[I love that at 6:47 he said 'for choice', a US expression I love but haven't heard used for many years, I first came across it in Barry Levinson's Diner]

Game 13 press conference: I have never heard "It was some dark ocean kind of position" (... so I didn't go further) before. That sounds like a quote from a film, not a description of a game of chess.

Deep.

Looking forward to tomorrow! Hope we don't need a blitz tie-break. They can play blitz at standard time controls anyway :-)
