Database with lichess' broadcasts

Post by Fulvio »

In this video Caruana analyzes a Niemann game:


He keep asking to chat the correct question: how much time he spent?
Everyone analyze lines with engines in opening preparation, so sometime it is natural to have a 100% correlation.
In that particular game it is possibile that he had prepared the line with Rh4 and reached a position with an advantage (+0.82), but the real plus was that he had 1 hour and its opponent only 2 min left.
(And in that tournament he didn't even did so well, losing 4 elo points).

Lichess' broadcasts contain the clocks (and also engine evaluation, I don't know to which depth):

Where I can download a database containing all lichess' broadcasts?
