love this short recap of the highlights -- so good
GM Aman Hambelton has such a deep and satisfying voice such a joy to listen to
true true.
Steroids
Some of my fav commentators here...
if you see closely they are analysing with the bar but they crop it out so we dont see it. kind of bad job though cos we can still see the bar
So we've got three joint leaders with 7.5 pts each, but who do they face in the two remaining rounds?
Mostly eachother - Nepo vs. Nakamura in the next one, Nakamura vs. Gukesh in the last one.
But Gukesh will also face Firouzja - who's having a bad tournament, despite having unexpectedly beaten the very same Gukesh a few rounds before - and with white pieces at that,.
Meanwhile Nepo will have black pieces against Caruana.
This setup tips the scale in favor of Gukesh.
All of these could be draws, and then if only Gukesh exacts his revenge on demoralized Firouzja, he wins the tournament.
Irina has been a great commentator, she just needs to keep her lapel mic on so we can hear her the whole time. She brings the energy though.
Aman is the goat
When you compare the standings against Carlsen's predictions before the tournament, it's clear that Carlsen had:
* overrated Firouzja (putting him in the "will do well" category)
* underrated Gukesh (putting him in "will do poorly")
Wow, it’s so refreshing to get commentary from someone as insightful as Aman, as opposed to that other guy.
Yes, Aman The 5 time World champion and who was that other guy, don't remember him
Other guy wakes us and went to win 2014 candidate , same other guy went on vacation in 2017 and become rapid word champion.
Yes it's true that vishy doesn't speak much, but it's up to the team to how to utilize him.
The other guy sucks yeah GM Hambelton is the best.
Like most of you guys could even grasp the quality difference between the commentary of a 2400+ player and the commentary of a 2700+ player if you weren't informed which is which :)
Rooting for gukesh❤
He’s been great, I hope Gukesh can take it if Hikaru can’t. I really want those WCC recaps though…
I'\d like to see Nepo win (this time at least) for two reasons:
1. His match against Liren was super interesting, more so than several previous WC matches combined. So I bet a rematch would be as well. It would also be pretty cool to bag 3 consecutive candidates wins in a row.
2. It's arguably his last realistic chance for a shot at the WC title. He's almost twice Gukesh's age. Meanwhile Gukesh is barely 17 yo and it's obvious he may still have several chances. (The same reasoning kind of applies to Nakamura, but I think Nepo objectively deserves it more)
As an amateur sound guy.... this is terrible in that department
Vishy left and the views dropped
vishy has so much class and yet here you are
@@attention_shopping I don't get it. I'm praising Vishy. I think either you misunderstood me or I misunderstood you
why did he leave?
@@HelloWorld12347 this had been known beforehand. he was contracted for commenting the first half of the tournament. why, i don't know, maybe he's got a cat to feed or something. the point is that it's not some last minute decision or a dispute.
