Re: 2024 FIDE World Chess Championship
During the olympiad, Ding Lien said that Gukesh is performing better than him, and also has higher ranking hence Gukesh is the favourite to win the forthcoming World Championship. Though, Ding Liren has experience, as it's his second WC. But I believe being in form is the decider.

Bet365 gives Gukesh 1.25 Ding 3.75. But isn't this in wrong forum? Should be in Chess Players Forum.

Re: 2024 FIDE World Chess Championship
looks like Gukesh is the popular choice among the respondents. let's see if this translates to the actual outcome of the event. looking forward to the analysis of games of this championship match.

Re: 2024 FIDE World Chess Championship.
Hello:
Which translates into the following probabilities:
For an average of 512932/673047 ~ 76.21% to Gukesh and 160115/673047 ~ 23.79% to Ding (16/21 and 5/21 are good enough approximations). The bookies and people who are betting consider that Gukesh is the favourite and Ding is the underdog, as noted by Chris.

I am willing to see how the WCC develops. Here are the fractional odds (English system) of a betting aggregator site right now:
Code: Select all
Gukesh 1/5 1/6 1/6 27/100 27/100 27/100

Gukesh 65/83 27/34 27/34 350/477 350/477 350/477
Ding 18/83 7/34 7/34 127/477 127/477 127/477
Code: Select all
Gukesh 78.31% 79.41% 79.41% 73.38% 73.38% 73.38%

Re: 2024 FIDE World Chess Championship
Gukesh's modus operandi:
1. play quickly, making moves that force the opponent to think
2. get to a slightly poor position, but be ahead on the clock
3. make a frightening aggressive attack
4. opponent succumbs to fear and time pressure
If Ding keeps cool, the above methodology could fail at either, or both, of steps (2) and (4) above.

The simple reveals itself after the complex has been exhausted.

In 2021 in an online blitz match with Ling(W), Gukesh(B) misses the win.

This is world number 5 vs world number 22 player now. The weakest FIDE WCC ever?!

Hello Norm:
I saw ..., Rd1+; Kh2, Qg6 by myself! It is true that after been told that there is a winning line. I simply could not find Be5, Bd4, but I can be proud given my level.
Time is ticking down to the first game!

Hello Jouni:
I would say that some FIDE WCC winners and runners-up during the split (1993-2005) were lower in the FIDE ranking.
