The last American who became world chess champion was none other than the great Bobby Fischer himself in the early 70s.
A massive task for Fabiano Caruana.

You'll be at the actual tournament?? Wow, That's exciting!!!
Are there multiple tournaments going on at the same time, or just this one? I bet it's so quiet in the room!

Actually I want Fabi to win. But on every chess sites I've visited there's only like 15% of people who believe that he can beat Magnus. And I agree with them.
King Magnus is still too strong.

Damn, that dude has been ruling the chess world since so long already and he has so many records. He's really good I agree, but we could do with a new champion. I root for the underdog. Too bad the predictions are against Fabi.

The head to head record between them is also in Carlsen's favor. But I don't think that will discourage Caruana as Carlsen's record to almost anyone is also in his favor lol.

Yes that's true. Hoping that this match brings lots of surprises.
Recent game between them.
I think I will use this guy videos in here. He's currently the biggest chess YouTubers so most likely he will cover the match.

Posted by ValleysofNeptuneLeo vs. Sag eh? π€
Go Leo American-Italian guy lol
From Astrological pov
Carlsen:
Sun Sag
Moon Taurus
Mercury Sag
Venus Sag
Mars Gemini
Asc Libra
Caruana:
Sun Leo
Moon Leo
Mercury Leo
Venus Leo
Mars Gemini
Asc -
I'm surprised by Caruana's chart as he's not an aggressive guy as it's seen in his games lol
Nevertheless is a battle between Fire.

Interesting to see how this progressed. It looked like Carlsen had the game until his knight move blunder (knight to g4). Good narrator as well, I appreciate his thorough explanations.

You nailed it!
Also Caruana defended well π he's known for his defensive abilities and positional understanding.
I also enjoy his accent lol Croatian guy.
Another recent one

Imo Carlsen is the best endgame player in the world. Even above my favorite Bobby Fischer or Garry Kasparov.
They nicknamed him "King Magnus" for not without a reason. He's so good at the endgame (it usually occurs at the end where there are no more pieces left so the King must come out from the hiding place and help the battle). His movement with his King is flawless.

Kasparov has always been my brother favorite.
Yes King Magnus is great! π He just makes it happen, and you are like - how did he just do that?
Just saw this and wanted to drop it here! π Don't mind me π

Now I'm confused lol.
You see the numbers and letters there just outside the box? That's for chess notation.
And on further investigating the pic, turns out it's not mirrored lol as the letters style isn't reversed.
The numbers and letters outside the box are the tricky part there. The letters are written from right to left which is wrong lol.
Oh and the King should be on the opposite color. White King should start in Dark square while Black King in light square.
That whole chessboard pic got me confused ππππππππππππ
