Dumb question!

We could really use an ignore button here...

[Jesse Gersenson]

youtube ran a streamed broadcast with two 2600 GM's. Their spoken English was very clear and they weren't referencing chess engines.

if it would not have been very unfortunate, it would have been very funny, but unfortunately, it is very unfrotunate.

If infromation about the chess moves is expensive, I wonder how much more expensive information about chess analysis, interviews and other relevant info would be.

no watching this time.

Carlsen playing Trumpowsky.

Judit Polgar is commenting on the official site. She is pretty good. I would sure rather listen to her than Yasser Seirawan, who tends to wander off into sidelines. But I see no video, just am getting the audio.

Link to the official site?

[BeyondCritics]

Thanks for the link.
So far the best commentry i think.
Van Kampen and Hansen (both 2600+) complement each other well, which is not taken for granted. Analysis is deep and without computers.
Recommended.

What's the best way to watch the WCC on:

a) Desktop
b) Smartphone

Any suggestions?

Thanks for asking this question Steve as I also wanted the information.

As a teacher of mine once said: There are no dumb questions: Only dumb replies.

Actually I wonder why we should watch this. There are many games played in the past that were much more interesting and exciting.

[Maybe only interesting because it's a live event. Second game quite boring. Waste of time.]
