Danny went all out and he tried very hard. But at the end, GM-elect Ben Finegold was just too solid. Congratulations to America’s newest Grandmaster Ben Finegold! We will have a celebration for Ben at my home tonight. Well done!

They agreed to draw, then Ben’s opponent played some move to about square f3. What was this about, thanks?
Congratulations to Mr. Finegold. But honestly I hoping for Mr. Robson to break Mr. Nakamura’s record. The boy is a genius, and I hope there is still time for his last norm!
