Kibitzer's Corner
May-20-22  metatron2: Nice to see Vishi with 3/3 in this strong tourney.

Hope he can keep up with the good play, proving that the attempt to force him into retirement (by stop inviting him to elite tourneys), was not only appalling from the human perspective, but was also completely unjustified from his chess level perspective.

  MissScarlett: David Gavrilescwho?
May-21-22  Alexandro: Incredible how strong Anand still is. Excellent performance for now!!!
May-22-22  virginmind: Gavrilescu (2518) with black beats Anand and Korobov in blitz games (in Korobov's case after an unfortunate blunder).
May-24-22  Joseph Blackcape: Those standings are incorrect. Duda won with 24 points clear ahead of Aronian and Anand who shared 2-3 with 23.5. Caruana was 4th with 23 points.
