I wish you a fast recovery Sir. Is it possible to know when they will release those 4 games played by Dragon 3.2 ?
Will GM Kayden Troff play all his games that he did NOT played in those 2 days that you were playing of simply he will play against the stronger GM Naroditsky ? https://ratings.fide.com/profile/2047896 Versus https://ratings.fide.com/profile/2026961

I believe he is playing all three opponents I missed. Don’t know about game scores of dragon. Naroditsky gave knight odds plus time odds to Nemo and won both games! She is a wgm and was Canadian women’s champ so pretty remarkable. Fischer said he could give knight odds to any woman in 1961, and Nemo is stronger than the 1961 worlds women’s champion , so we can say that Daniel did what Fischer claimed!
Komodo rules!

Re: Chess18 event, what really happened

So not bad. Today Naroditsky gave knight odds plus time odds to Anna Cramling, scoring 1.5 out of 2. These are the first Rapid games ever to my knowledge where a FIDE titled player wfm took knight odds from another human.
Why they did NOT Replaced the Computer, that is an easy replacement fix. Actually why really happened ?

Why are these 2 players still playing, did they get married and celebrating a honey moon by playing Chess18 there? This GM gave this Master 5 minutes to 1 Minute, he should had done that and give her the f7 pawn Odds, I wonder if he can take 5 minutes to 10 seconds against Dragon 3.2 or Stockfish ?===>

The speed is NOT the issue here, I know that you can play faster, but not as accurate as GM Troff :lol: :mrgreen: :roll:
