    4:30 players signing the board after the game ends.. does this happen after every WCC match?

    Mentally weak imo.
    How could moving pieces of wood cause so much trauma.
    Also, you get to rest after each move.
    God forbid him having to do something actually important.

    This was so hard to watch. I can't see him winning now.

    can't wait for tomorrow for Ding to win in some crazy fashion and everyone flip-flops AGAIN
    haha
    loving this WC

    The feeling of knowing you're winning and losing on time. Brutal feeling, we all know and love. Good luck Ding, hope you recover well.

    chess is stressful even if you win the game

    This is so random but did anyone else notice it when Danyas eyes crossed at 2:27 😂

    What can we say, Ding got disconnected and was flagged by Nepo

    I’ve never seen someone get flagged in a classical game, hats off to Ding for flagging Mr. Liren.

    Tania upset like Ding forgot to get the Kids from school 😅

    Ian is a beast, poor Ding, fight back next round!

    It just prove how human we are .. we are not machines

    That was tough to watch. Hope Ding bounces back!

    both players played it out. kudos to the both of them. i wish there would be two world champions. but sadly only one should come out on top.

    Want to play the most brutal game (think you're so so tough?) play Chess. Bobby Fischer told us– "The Objective is to crush the other person's Ego." Yes, no kidding.

    Analysis paralysis explained in one video

    These guys are throwing haymakers, knocking each other down then getting back up each round by round. Somebody may not get back up!

    Man, the music makes it brutal (at least till Anish says "he is malfunctioning, he is broke"', lol). I heard Ding is dealing with some heartbreak/personal issues…

    Great commentary by Anish GIRI, but also very sad.

    I think Magnus decided to not play this time because of such mental pressure with less reward. What do you think?

    Can chess make you crazy?

    Therefore it is safe to assume that chess does not make people go crazy or cause mental illness on its own. However, people with preexisting mental conditions might see them worsened by the increased stress that playing chess can cause in some players.

    Just couldn’t find the right move 😢

    Focus on the Game of Chess, rather than simply criticise individual players.

    i really hope Ding composes himself and wins.

    Ah, the melancholy I feel; my heart goes out to you Ding Liren 🖤⚔️🥀.

    Can anyone explain what happened to Naroditsky at 1:57 and 2:27? It looks like the high pressure triggered some kind of neurological tic. Maybe he has a condition? Just curious.

    Did we just see the Chess equivilant of the Yips?

    everyone who plays chess knows that losing by the clock is the most frustrating loss
