Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Carlsen is the new chess God.
The grid looks funny…
How about some original commentary on this fine event from Susan Polgar?
I was fortunate enough to be able to attend todays (Wednesdays) event. A great experience – particularly the post game analysis offered by Short & Howell, Kramnik, and Carlsen & McShane. Carlsen and McShane in particular, as they were happy to analyse and investigate lines for >30 minutes. Impressive content too, though unsuprisingly it was pretty hard to keep up with at times.
