Hello Garvinator. That is true, you didn't mention a specific number of rounds in your more recent post. Though in your post on 7/4/2022 in this...

I am no expert in neither early birth or polution so it is neither surprising nor not surprising for me. However, curious how they've done the data...

Now the question is...will Magnus play him or not...

It does smell like data torturing :).

Nepo has won the second candidates in a row. I know he could still be caught if he loses 2 games in a row but it is not happening. It is all over and...

Nepo and Hikaru play a quick known draw.
