Tolexander:Baba, Femi sef know he won't get a draw in the bout. It's just two round and it's quite historic but the winner is known even before the pairing. It's a win-win for Femi and Nigeria all the same. 1 Like |

He's already lost but he should have fun. The chance of an upset happening is like 0.0001%. Carlsen doesn't take his games lightly at all. If it were a sim then maybe he could manage to squeeze a draw but as it stands he should just think about enjoying himself and learning from the game. 1 Like |

nymphomaniac:The stonewall attack is only good for intermediate players. I can't remember the last time I saw a grandmaster use it. If black defends successfully in the beginning white is finished. Because it leaves white with a lot of 'trapped' pieces and a very vulnerable kingside. And grandmasters will defend successfully. There are thousands of games in the database of important chess games for them to know how to block it and conclude that its not the best opening. 1 Like |

cochtrane:He's eclipsed Kasparov because of rating inflation- I think Kasparov at his prime with access to the same material and database of games to study from would floor Carlsen. You can even see this from how Kasparov (as old as he is) came out of retirement and is still able to compete well against todays top players. But yeah, I agree that this guy stands no chance. 1 Like |

Just to buttress my original post. . . One of Magnus Carlsen's best friends wrote a post on Quora about how Carlsen went to party once (something he doesn't usually do) and as a result, he came home drunk. This friend seized the opportunity to try to win against Magnus for bragging rights and he was recording the game. Mind you, this friend is an IM (international master). Magnus still beat him. While drunk. Now this guy here isn't even an IM yet, he's still a CM and you expect him to have a chance against the reigning world champion since 2013? No way, José. 4 Likes |

Wishing you the very best Femi... please can we bet on this game on any betting site in Nigeria.. the odds of Femi beating Magnus would be crazy!
