Civhai: I think she is actually called Sachdev Tania, not Tania Sachdev. At least that is what I saw in her FIDE rating card and on the tournament schedule of the Tata Steel Chess tournament.

Civhai: But how does that work if they play blindfolded? Are there just two players sitting next to each other with no board between them?

Civhai: As some others, I tried Re8+?? first, but then it was hard to get the queen side knight into play and without him, it was difficult to find anything, so I tried Qe8+ next, which worked.

Civhai: What was the point of Craftys 42 Bxg5? Isn't that just a blunder?

Civhai: I had the pleasure to play against him today. He is really a very nice person and motivated me and showed me some things after the game. I didn't know that there were such nice GMs. :D
