Oct-10-19 Carlsen vs Kuzubov, 2019
| |
| Bobwhoosta: Ok, well I was about to say "I was having trouble seeing if white's advantage was clear or not( I felt he had something, with more space, better pieces, and so on), but seeing that the bishop can't really take on f5 due to the e6 push becoming to strong, I've changed my opinion". |

I missed the round, but watched Daniel King's analysis. It was indeed a beautiful game, and I loved Carlsen's callout to Botvinnik. |

Apr-28-19 Magnus Carlsen
| |
| Bobwhoosta: My thoughts on the last few years:

Apr-09-19 Carlsen vs Grischuk, 2019
| |
