    I love how when Wesley realizes Danny is super low on clock he has the class to give him an extra few second to make his move before hitting his own clock...

    i think he was giving danny time to play out the move he said, which he should’ve started doing from the beginning (rather than immediately hit the clock after saying the move) because in a regular non-blindfolded game you have to play the move then hit your clock with the same hand, so really there should be a pause

    In the beginning Wesley was hitting the clock immediately after saying his move but I think once Danny was very low on time, Wesley realized that he'd been eating into Danny's time because Danny had to move Wesley's piece on his own time, so he started giving him some time to carry out the move.

    When Wes says play 1.e4 on all the games, I can see why Anish said during his 3 player blindfold simul that he has a system. Be white on all games and play a different opening. He did 1.c4, 1.d4 and 1.e4. That makes it much harder to transpose into something else.

    How wesley's comments on Twitter, that were later deleted, along with his account, are not making Chess drama ? How come it's hidden from everyone everywhere ? How much does that cost ? Anyone else would have said what he did would have been banned from Chess, people have banned Chess players for the only fact of being born russian, kind of weird. Glad So isnt russian, it would of have made 2months Chess drama, even more than the Carlsen/ Nieman drama, and he would of been banned instead of promoted 😅
