And Danny shows a blunder. And laffs it off. Top man.
Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline.

He's good. He was doing some live commentary in the room when I attended london chess last year. Very personable chap.

There is definite sexual tension between chess DK, not radio DK and Judit Polgar.
Anyway, a game to finish.

Rook and 3 pawns for Carlsen v Rook and 2 pawns for Caruana.
A fight or a draw? Will be a draw.

It could be a draw.
Or a win.
I am going with the former. Unless someone loses.

Dear Anna Rudolf and lovely Judit Polgar did the start:
Dear old Judit seems like a mama to young Anna. Slapping down her sometimes foolish opinions, often foolish opinions.

Anna can get away with it as she's so cute. She's like an improved version of Jennifer. Jen 2.0 innit

Rook ending with Magnus and extra pawn, Like going for the win but all same side and so hard not to be a draw.
Surprised the draw not happened.

Cheers Jock. Game 1 over. A record that two of this forum were watching live and a thriller it was, despite all seven hours.
A Sicilian Rossolimo, eww I hate Sicilians, and out of book early and swings and all sorts.
Caruana, maybe the line had positional development and looked good as Carlsen delayed castling Queenside until late gave him what look a positional advantage.
But Carlsen could not capilitise and after seven hours we had a draw.
Game 1 of 12. First to 6.5 wins:
Carlsen 0.5 - 0.5 Caruana
Danny was busy there schmoozing with Judit Polgar, the dirty dog, and nothing yet from Jerry. You can read the Guard's live action: https://www.theguardian.com/sport/live/ ... ame-1-live
Game two tomorrow and yours truly will be attending with some live reports and snaps. Last time in NY in 2016 after a 6 hour game, people thought the next would be a quickey but was even longer and one I also happily attended.
Watch Danny's preview instead. Like last time, it could go long:
It's going to be a long ponderer indeed, Magnus:

Greetings from that London. Now at Euston going to wander down to Holborn where doors open at 2pm.
Fun times and photos await. Hopefully some of Judit and Anna for me and Jock.
