    From four little indian boys to one. . .im rooting for pragg. .

    This result is as heartbreaking as the first one. Bittersweet

    Already a one Namer., like all great artists. Picasso, Segovia, Pragg….

    Agadmaror:
    "You have an extra pawn, you're winning"
    Someone has an extra pawn against Magnus: "Magnus is winning"

    Suggestion: Fabiano vs Dominguez , please

    please show some fabi games he is doing so well

    White doesn’t lose it only yields a draw. That’s probably true when Magnus plays it but pragg is cut from a different cloth.😂

    Watching these games is genuinely heartbreaking

    Wow……. I had to prepsre mentally to watch two friends play each other considering the amount of bollocks it would involve. Tysm

    Fabi is going to win the world cup even if you don't show his games

    Whats the difference between sudden-death and armageddon?

    Better and better analysis – great coverage!

    Why aren't you showing Fabi's game bro🤔🤔🤔🤔

    Sarin will be next challenger. Firouzja has poor nerves like Hübner and "Prag" is like Korchnoi: he lacks talent and nit everything can rely on hard work. Intereegnum between Magnus and Sarin will be so boring.

    Hi. Please add the evaluation bar. I think it is good to imagine how better or worse is a position.🙂

    Why are Fabi's games not being shown? Played incredible yesterday to save a completely lost position and got a great win today as well…

    That was just a terrible blunder by Erigaisi. Not really easy at all to see the consequences of 38.Kc3, but why give Prag any dangerous looking counterplay by allowing 38. …..e4. I didn't see the after game interviews, but I think, maybe, Erigaisi thought he was winning with 38.Kc3 rather than drawing.

    Pragg with the abundance of pawns and being able to counter the white pawn after it promoted that was crucial nice comeback by Pragg Yay 😃

    Wow So Beautiful the fact they can Calculate all these terrific Moves four or five moves ahead so Brilliant of course mistakes happen can’t make best engine moves all the time 😅

    Finally a game where a player has to win to bounce back, and he actually wins!! WP

    Is Arjun from Nairobi? He looks similar to someone i met from there

    Pragg could win that Tournament… He's in such a great shape

    Prag still has the satanic tika on his forehead

    I'm not surprised Erigaisi lost – I watched the game on Chessbase (great commentary from Irine Kharisma and Irina Krush btw) and he spent most of the time when it was his move looking around the playing arena. Seriously – he hardly ever looked at the board! He may be a good player, but playing blindfold chess against Praag was a) unwise, and, b) quite insulting, I thought. The guy has a real concentration problem.

    Well, I know that Pragg didn’t really want to play his best friend, but I think they should both be content, because this is really a battle for the ages! 😄💪💪

    Agad keep on missing Fab games……..ever since the Fide started

    It's 2 am and I am awake only for this video

    What a fight! Chess is a cruel game, what appears s little inaccuracy leads one to defeat.

    It's a sign of a world champion to be able to comeback in must-win games and pragg did just that, and that too with the black pieces against a formidable arjun! No doubt he will have quite an illustrious career and go far, perhaps even the farthest one day!

    Why do you keep skipping Fabi games… Come on Agadmator
