TEMPO – NOMINATIVUM SINGULARIS; TEMPI – NOMINATIVE PLURALIS; NIGEL'S PUBLISHER SHOULD HAVE LISTEN TO NIGEL!
DISCOMBOBULATED!!!! NIGEL TEACHS ME A NEW ENGLISH WORD EVERY DAY!!!
NIGEL IS REALLY WELL READ, BUT SO IS ALMIRA; REALLY A PLEASURE LISTNING TO THEM!
Esipenko and Duda, my 2 faves are through! Awesome!
When you randomly watch the games, you don’t understand instantly which move it is or what is the real-time status or whether the analysis is going on or not.. why these guys don’t follow online chess world..?
So the commentators are Almira and Nikocado.
That Peter Svidler game was amazing, especially how he sent his knight on a mission up the board. I had to do a video on that game!
this time even if u qualify for semifinals there is chance of 50% to qualify for candidates
Jeah dont show us once the game between dubov and esipenko..
I was hoping for a carlsen vs dubov. But good games still. Congrats to the winners
