which could create opportunity fro counterplay

yeah, so in Fabi's case, as he's in 2nd place, he cant afford to lose any games, and basically have to play as if he must win

Doesnt have to be Hikaru, but with 6 wins out of 7 games, can anyone realistically catch up with and overtake him?

Fiona and Hammer, do you think anyone can catch up to Sindarov, especially if hikaru beats fabi today?

just watched a long think between Svidler and Gustafsson on what Hikaru's next move should be and they thought the only somewhat appealing and human move was ne4. Have Fiona and Hammer discovered anything else?

Was there a rook sac on g7?

anish i'd guess

ll´¨å,fweåflewåf

messy means lots of opportunities for counter attacks and mistakes so that's sounds like it could decisive yeah

do we think Hikaru's will be decisive?

i shouldn't leave the stream, cuz every time i come back, the eval bar's looking worse for Hikaru

What dd Hikaru spend a lot of time on?

so you think he should play the french again today?

Do you think we will see another tarrasch from hikaru?

104, 1st of April

It WAS an april's fool joke!!

mostly Hikaru with quick check ins on the other games @uXses

Hammer looking like he's about to bust out some moves in that picture

104 i mean

and with FIDE's sense of humour, using the 1st of april as the position number feels exactly the kinda thing they'd do
