What a wonderful display by the kid! Apart from Chucky he really overplayed everyone in both middle as endgame.
His attacks look so fluent once they start, but so difficult to foresee.
Karjakin stopped him… naturally! 🙂
Karjakin strikes back in Game 2. Meanwhile Chucky wins his second game agains Smeets, so Chucky is infront again.
