      At the same time, he really really wants to win. He wants to win as much as any other candidate. But in these interviews, he protests that he cares that much. I love Hikaru but he comes across as disingenuous when he talks about how a tournament matters to everyone else but him.

    @SteveNinetyski 5 місяців тому

    Gukesh simply must be the favourite.
    If he wins today he wins straight up. If he draws today he wins straight up or has a play off at worst.
    Hikaru must win to either win straight up or get a playoff.
    Ian and Fabi must win and that only gives them a playoff regardless of what happens in the other match.
    So odds have to be with Gukesh.
    For sure it will be the most exciting evening of chess I will have ever watched tonight. Fireworks are simply unavoidable with these circumstances.

    • @SteveNinetyski
      @SteveNinetyski 5 місяців тому

      The question is...will Gukesh even try for a win? Will his mind change mid game when he sees the progress in the other game? He may know a draw wins at some point..or may know a draw only gets a play off so it could change his decisions. It is more "simple" for Ian, Fabi and Hikaru as they must win.
      I think the Gukesh - Hikaru game is going to be one that is analysed for generations...let's see😁
