The first three games all ended as draws, with Magnus now having the first move in tomorrow's fourth game.

As always, Agadmator provides excellent brief commentary and analysis:

GAME 1 (24 minutes)

GAME 2 (28 minutes)

GAME 3 (12 minutes)

I have a chess app with a skill level that can be adjusted from 1 to 25. Where would the 25 skill level rank in the chess world?

<< In their previous classical games prior to this match, Nepo is ahead 4-1. >>

Damn impressive against a player many consider to be the GOAT.

A BTT for Agadmator. “Capturescapturescaptures. There is nothing more to be done here...”

Whats the background on Agadmator? I’ve watched many of his utube commentaries on great historical games but always wondered if he was ever a highly ranked player or just a Howard Cosell of Chess?

At least according to my son who is following this even more closely than I, tomorrow is a rest day, and game four is Tuesday.

“brief commentary” — whew, listening to him fly through the game is tough.

I use the pidgeon style of play.

Thanks a lot!

I had missed this was happening. Great comments. The first two games really exciting. The third one more of a dud.

Magnus is going to be hard to beat, but in the last two championship matches he only drew in the classical part of the match (1-1 against Karjakin, 0 - 0 in the last one against Caruna).
