      Yeah, but to be fair Guki just needs a draw and he wins the candidates. Fabi, Nepo and Hikaru need a win, but I’m not sure that’s going to happen. They’ve pretty much drawn out most of their games, it’s the wins vs the weaker players that matter. Hikaru also has a decent chance because a win for him means loss for Guki and he’s white, but idk. My gut tells me Guki will win the tournament.

    Hikaru vs Gukesh will be a bloodbath. We saw hikaru taking down an in form fabiano at norway chess. But, gukesh has been incredible this candidates. At this point anything could happen. We have some incredible sports action tommorrow w/el classico on the way.

    I feel tomorrow is a must win for all four players. Obviously Fabi or Nepo need to win to have a chance, as does HIkaru, but if Gukesh draws and Fabi or Nepo wins, he will have to face them in a shorter time format (Nepo having three silver medals from World Rapid and Blitz, and Fabi being ranked about 100 points higher than Gukesh according to FIDE’s website in both rapid and blitz).

    I was watching this match live. Alireza spent only six seconds to make that queen move that proved fatal. The commentators never even mentioned this move as a possibility before he played it, as they all were only thinking of that nE6 move. It’s exactly the same thing that happened against Hikaru, Alireza made precise moves under time pressure, then blundered after reaching time control. I thought for sure we were going to have a four way tie, but Alireza screwed up again. My prediction is he is on the first flight out of Toronto after the matches tommorrow.

    • @austinvillanueva7491

      Yeah, those blunders including from his game with Hikaru is quite unnatural even after getting time control. I really thought that he would win this game or atleast draw cause they are equal most of the time. Just one critical blunder can change the flow the game. Chess is brutal.

I read a story on Chess written by Stephen Zweig .

    I calculated the probability of each player winning :
    Gukesh : 5/9 (56%) Hikaru : 2/9 (22%) Fabi : 1/9 (11%) Nepo : 1/9 (11%)
    That is assuming the following :
    1: both game have a 1/3, 1/3, 1/3 chance of being drawn or won by player 1 or won by player 2.
    2: In a tie break, each player has 1/2 chance to win against the other.
    Interesting to note that the pairings matter : Hikaru is twice as likely to win as Fabi and Nepo even though they have the same score.

  • @phd.inanime3427
    @phd.inanime3427 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I've a very solid prediction on Nakamura vs Gukesh.
    Nakamura is white, Gukesh is black. High chances of winning belongs to Naka. Gukesh can seriously hold for a draw, or even beat Naka if Naka pushes too hard for a win (This thing is most probably, as when Naka pushes too hard for a win he loses many times)
    But, I got a thing which is most likely to happen. Hikaru is going to play some weird lines so that Gukesh starts taking his time. Nakamura is going to blitz out his moves.
    Gukesh can lose because he is tired due to his game against Firouzja that lasted for almost 6 hours. Hikaru on the other hand made a quick draw and go to his room to prepare. Hikaru has the upper hand here.
    Also, it is worth noting that when Hikaru pushes too hard for a win, he wins 90% of the time.
