After the first two rounds of Prague Masters 2026, the defending Champion Aravindh Chithambaram is the only Indian player with a win! After a loss in the first round against Nodirbek Abdusattorov, Aravindh struck back in Round 2 with a win over Hans Niemann with the Black pieces.

The World Champion D Gukesh has started with two draws against Hans Niemann and Nodirbek Yakubboev. In the Challengers group, GM Divya Deshmukh has also started with 2 draws against two 2600+ rated Grandmasters! GM Surya Sekhar Ganguly lost the first round against Thomas Beerdsen, and drew in the second round against Jonas Buhl Bjerre.

The Karel Janaćek Open tournament kicked off yesterday, where several Indian players are taking part. From 7:30 PM IST, the games start each day- and we are bringing all the action to you with live commentary at the ChessBase India YouTube channel!

All the players seemed in a chipper mood at the opening ceremony of @PragueChess Masters 2026. World Champion @DGukesh and World no.4 @VincentKeymer04 were having a fun conversation, while @suryachess64 was speaking with @DivyaDeshmukh05! Here's a small video with the players.

One is ideal. The other is real.

The ideal tells you how life should be.
The real shows you how life is.

The ideal is polished, perfect, inspiring.
The real is messy, flawed, human.

In this rare video, you might find yourself agreeing with both. And that’s the beauty of it, the ideal gives direction, but the real gives truth.

If I had to choose, I would choose to be real.
Because ideals can impress the world.
But being real connects you to it.

Ideals look good in theory.
Reality builds character in practice.

And in the long run, authenticity outlives perfection.
