Its amazing how they visualise the position immediately when suggested by each other.

If you play over the board classical, you'll start to develop this ability, even if it's on a more basic level for the most critical moments. Then, the better you get, the more you can discuss without moving any pieces around. Tip: It's easier to start by looking at the board and pointing to squares rather than doing it purely blindfolded. The beauty of slow chess is that you get plenty of time to think about and remember critical positions.

I just liked Nepo's explanations.I get lost after 2 sentences but I am confident he was right!I think Fabiano and Nepo are the favorites after Nakamura's mistakes

So much better than “chess speaks for itself”

Nepo is a cool guy. And he deserves to be WCh

99.99% of the population have no idea what they are talking about.

An interesting discussion not because any of us can follow it (none of us can) but because of the body language. Alireza is usually upset after a loss (as anybody would be!) but this time he seems sad and tired. He held out well against Fabi in round 3, hopefully he'll make a comeback and get some wins in the coming rounds.

I can't follow this kind of discussion at all and think this level of discussion is truly prodigious, but I think it's also worth remembering that they've just sat there for 2-3 hours literally thinking only about this game and countless variations for each move. We know they're very quick at seeing lines and tactics so I can only imagine just how deep they're going with the analysis in their heads as they're sitting there during the game. So after the game, they get to verbalise these things they've been pondering non-stop for hours. Still, I can't wrap my head around the kind of brain power they have. It's incredible.

Although I think Nodirbek should actually probably slow down - I feel like he played nearly every day in the past year and hasn't done as well as in recent years. My reply was only to say Alireza seems to have reinvested his attention in chess again - which I think many people don't know and still think he's only half-heartedly playing.

It must suck being able to realize what move you should have played after you played a different move. I wouldn't be able to concentrate for the rest of the game
