Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
And so it all comes down to the last 2 rounds. So has a very poor record against Giri. Carlsen has to face Ding, who doesn’t seem to like draws very much.
Wei Yi will be the younger player ever to reach 2700 if he win his last two round.
Way to go Wesley!! Tomorrow the real test. On behalf of the Minnesota chess community, we wish you the best.
Wesley So is still in 2nd place with two rounds left to play. What a roller coaster ride. That speaks of his new manager, Lotis Key and new coach Norlito Sugardom.
Lets see if this 2015 version of GM Wesley So will be “easily defeated” by Giri as what Giri’s diehard fans will say. You never know, although So has a -2 record against Giri but there is always a 1st time. Tonights win by GM Wesley So will cause too much pain to Giri & his Team. GM Wesley So is a home grown product of the SPICE Program of Susan Polgar… even if So is no longer in the program, the personalize training, coaching etc by Susan Polgar to Wesley So speaks a lot about the effectiveness of SPICE Program. GM Wesley So is a living proof & testament that the SPICE Program works & Susan Polgar talent as chess coach is one of the best in the world. GM Wesley So success is a SPICE & Susan Polgar’s success & they can rightfully claim it. It will also show that Susan Polgar is a better coach than the coach of Caruana & Giri hahaha! Go Wesley, CRUSH the Girl… I mean Giri LOL
Wesley So has shown vast improvements with the tutelage of GM Susan Polgar. His tactical acumen was further sharpened because of the regimental training under Susan Polgar in Webster University. We hope he will continue to excel now that he already has a new manager and coach in the persons of Lotis Key and Norlito Sugardom. We are rooting for him to wallop Giri tonight…
Norlito sugardom, is a fool and chess stalker, lives. In fantasy land,where he coaches great players.Just before he reaches the peak of his dream,his mother Wake’s him up,so he can look for a real job in the real world.
Watch master tactician Nakamura play on the 26th and you will be educated how chess is supposed to be played. If you really want to learn chess, watch all his games and pick up all the good moves from there.
😇Nakamura is 1000% better than 😈So
AGREE! 1000% BETTER than So in chickening out of strong tourneys, on always losing to Carlsen, on being old at 27 years old but still have not step not a single time in Candidates Tourney, on running more of his mouths than just playing…. Indeed, Nakamura is better than So on the above-mentioned things lol
So for all of you doubters, how did I manage Wesley so far. Like what I said, LOTS of patience is the KEY to success.
Lots of nuts here.. Especially wesley haters
