Facts. I especially love how he narrates the chess games with the intricacy of a Sherlock thriller and the suspense of a Hitchcock masterpiece. It makes amateurs like me so mind blown all the time. I could watch him for hours. 😁



Ooof! There goes the suspense for me. I was going to tell you not to spoil the outcome but perhaps I exercised too much faith that you wouldn't spill the beans. 😂

In my review of the tournament so far, he's been quite solid, so I guess that's okay. I was rooting for Hikaru as well.

Poor Nepo.

So sorry I spilled the beans, the games are a very interesting watch nonetheless especially the last phase that had Fabiano, Hikaru, Ian and Gukesh battling for 1st place...
Not to forget how Alireza really underperformed (sorry for spilling another beans lol)

Meanwhile, are you on chess.com? And what's your rating (blitz and rapid)..

Naturally...

A lot of schools even have chess coaches and the feats of people like Tunde Onakoya feats both nationally and globally has helped put to put chess on the mind of the average Nigerian

Hi, this is uche40.

I didn't start early but I'm currently watching the recaps on GothamChess YouTube channel.

Gotham chess is a great chess content creator, he makes chess so much fun to watch!

Meanwhile, you came late to the party o..

Gukesh surprisingly took the day, a major upset for perennial winners like Ian Nepo...

If she's not up to 6-8weeks, the scan may not pick anything. You probably did it too early.

Very correct!

I slightly disagree. For a sport like football you might not stake high.

But for a sport that is single participants and you do your research/analysis properly, follow the contestants and have information on them at hand you can stake high. Especially this age we have social media to help.

E.g during her prime before childbirth you could count on Serena Williams to win.

Also, when it comes to things like MMA to an extent you can be certain who will win.

Staking high almost always leads to unnecessary pressure and fear that the stakes might be lost making you lose concentration and focus on other important day to day activities

It is better to stake a little so that the pains of a loss is greatly minimised and you must know that losses most times outweigh the wins

Also betting can be quite addictive and staking high is tantamount to feeding that addiction.

You need to be carefully guided when staking else na "premium tears" ooo

Imagine 2013 Highlander for 22m

Incredible!!

Pantoja/Ecreg

Pantoja is definitely taking the fight, if u watched his fight against the "assassin baby" for the belt, you would know he is a beast!

Erceg is not even in the first to 9 ranking and so it would be a pure stroke of luck if he wins

OneCandleAway:
I'm just trying to figure out 301.

Is the fight card out?

Haven't seen anything yet

OneCandleAway:
Should we open a topic for that? Because some fights are soo predictable. During UFC 300 it was obvious Alex will win. And one can analyse to chose the safest pick

I got all my predictions for that fight...

And yes, we either open a new thread or we do a telegram for that as NL would soon likely close this thread

@spending123, I think you should open a telegram account you can use plus UFC predictions inclusive

OneCandleAway:
Can you do MMA ?
Ufc/pfl specifically

I am huge fan of UFC and can try..

Despite the negative perception that north cyprus has, people still dey Japa go dia!!!

People can really do anything and go anywhere to escape Nigeria...

May God help us in this country!

@uche40, are you following the candidates?

Who do you think would win?

I am rooting for Hikaru though

Where is the producer of this ill-fated movie

I wonder the rationale behind the massive increment in electricity tariffs for the Band A users when it's so obvious they cannot meet up with the required 20hrs

May God help the masses in this country!
