Gollum Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Match fixing, Both these bastards deserve a lengthy ban. Vijy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollum Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 No more benefit of doubt to Magnus, he is a pos, worst thing to happen to the chess world. Doing so much damage to the game, always bullying, always getting his way like Fischer earlier. rangeelaraja and Vijy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, going against the regulation, he continued to wear Jeans in the Blitz to rub it in. I have for a long time called him a narcissist here. Magnus deserves to be banned from Chess, he just brings grave disrepute to the game and it is deeply disrespectful of other players. Unbelievable. We have our sponsors like Mahindra and Adani who can put in huge money, Chess doesn't need this at all. Gollum and Vijy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangeelaraja Posted January 1 Author Share Posted January 1 What a coward Magnus is....chickened out of the real World Championship - classical - after he could not beat guys like Caruana and Karjakin in the classical format. Chickened out of the Rapids with the Jeans drama when he had literally no chance of catching up with the leaders. And now talking Nepo into playing draws in the Blitz... This is beyond shameful.

Vickydev Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Magnus showed real vulnerability in these Championships. Niemann almost got him in the quarters..his hands were shaking and was making blunders. Letting a 2-0 lead slip in the finals...I think he knows this is the last big opportunity to grab a win. The young players are very good Having said that, we have no one in speed chess good enough atm. Pragg loses every crunch game even against players around his age, Arjun plays too risky for the big guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomGuy Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Bad and Very much against sportsman spirit. But not sure he can be charged because I am thinking even this Berlin defence line is also like a pre decided draw - https://lichess.org/study/BcUgbyAP/wtPh59jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was played by Alireza and Magnus I think in the final game of the regular format when both needed a draw to qualify for knockouts.

Spot on. Everything stems from fear of losing for him, Fischer and Kasparov too had the same issue, more pronounced in case of Fischer. rangeelaraja and Vijy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gollum Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Legendary Ivanchuk has a breakdown, pure passion. From 9:45. Along with Paul Keres and Viktor Korchnoi, the greatest player to never become world champion. Aronian may join that list.....Caruana is still quite young though.

Gollum Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 The chess world is officially a joke. THIS HAS NEVER BEEN DONE IN HISTORY.

Gollum Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Massive pushback from the chess world. I don't see any logical conclusion to this saga other than life ban on Carlsen and Nepo from FIDE events. rangeelaraja 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Federer and Nadal deciding to split championship when the set/match goes to a tie breaker in a tennis grand slam. This is the best analogy. It is shameful. Pity that some (only a few) people are supporting magnus here also. Actually it went to fide president and he allowed for this to happen. This was fide president's call. But shameful act by magnus and nepo. Gollum, Vijy and rangeelaraja 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlsen’s intent is to also tarnish and diminish the legacy of the classical world chess champion in the sense that they became champions without beating him. The loser of the world chess championship no longer automatically qualifies for the candidates. It’s a long tough process to even qualify for the candidates and then winning it. I don’t think since the last 50-55 years, the holder of the title has reclaimed his title after losing it. So now Carlsens only intent is to milk chess financially by bullying FIDE for his own commercial interests. I don’t think he has serious chess interests. For far too long people accommodated his disrespectful rude conduct as a Scandinavian trait of being too frank and upfront. Carlsen is a bastard, period.
