Nyback rules. He also beat Carlsen at the Olympiad.
Hyvä Tomi !
Lost respect for Nyback since he cheated against a Jamaican player in the 2006 Olympiad by taking by a move and claiming he was adjusting a piece… by picking it up and hovering it over a square. No one has forgotten that.
And Svidler has very often been a…wuss, for lack of a better term…pusillanimous would work too.
great game by Nyback , i was impressed really , great positional understanding , what makes it a very nice victory is that it’s achieved against a specialist of the Grunfeld in Svidler .
Congratulations Nyback and cheers from France
Remarkable how Svidler gets in trouble lately with this normally solid black opening.
Hmm, aren’t U bs:tin?
