Okay with most of the things

@anishgiri Fide had one chance to redesign the championship by declaring the candidates winner as world champion (when magnus stepped down)

It still can and should be done, but it would be unfair to reigning world champion

@DeveshsK_ @DenisLazavik @GMHikaru Gukesh has the mental strength to withstand the pressure.

Not sure of sindarov, but first time got to be difficult mentally, especially when everyone thinks you are the favourite

With engines and preparation, it's not about who is better player, it's just about who is prepared

[Pratheek @Prathee06700973]

@anishgiri Yes I got to know after watching watching CBI few years back

@poojaofficial5 So...if i had got lucky and the other side asked me politely without entitlement, and I see they really need it...i would just give away.

If i really needed it for some important reason, i would just decline without guilt

[Pratheek @Prathee06700973]

@poojaofficial5 If I paid for the seat preference..i would want to keep it and if I don't, then at least I want a compensation.

But in case of Indian railways, I don't think anyone can pay for the seat preference. You just have to book really early or if you booked late, just get lucky...
So...

@thechessnerd 1. c8=N+ Kc6
(If Ke6 Bb3+ Nxb3 Kxb3 and white should be winning easily)
2. Ba4+ Kc5 (If Ke6 or Kd5, Bb3+ and same as previous. If Nb5+ Bxb5+ and white can win easily)
3. Rc7+ Kd5 and black is forced to exchange N for B with losing game
3.

@EndgameaiChess If you want to be precise and call it world human chess championship title, you have to remember, Magnus, a human, stepped away from title because of his humanic limitations (which is understandable)..which was then taken over by Ding and the by Gukesh

[Pratheek @Prathee06700973]

@EndgameaiChess With that logic, the world championship ended in 1997, when he lost to stockfish.

No one can say they are the best in the world, when there is something better who can beat them convingly...

You can debate about the format....but can't take away anything from the real winners

[Pratheek @Prathee06700973]

@DeveshsK_ I have told this before...i am telling again, we are yet to see best of Nihal.

He spent last few years in the shadows of Gukesh Arjun and Pragg...but he has the real potential for convingly the world's best

@mak_aura People commenting shit here about India doesn't know that shoes are for safety of the feet before hygiene....

I am not sure how many of these non-indians have the culture of washing feet before entering house....I assume not many

[Pratheek @Prathee06700973]

@miradreaamy 10 easy.....

[Pratheek @Prathee06700973]

@RishiJoeSanu My observation: Among south Indians (Kar, TN, KL, AP), malyalis speak the most hindi

[Pratheek @Prathee06700973]

@Shahtv6920 @Nrvs90s In my opinion, it's not deception....more like a clever tactics and not taking anything from the game...

For comparison, dusra, googly, slow balls, sledging all comes close to same category

@Cloon_ey1 Bengaluru always had vibes, probably diluted these days due to large migrations...but it still does. It is only felt by long timers who assimilated well.
Morning coffee and discussions in Darshinis... laughing club ...just live in Old Bengaluru areas, you will find it.

@TanmayJain5114 The interviewer is trusting the previous company's assessment of his worth more than their assessment based on the interview.

Says a lot about what to expect when you work there....
