        I don’t know what kind of brains and eyes you Guys had. You are not only dumb but also blind. Nakamua will educate you tomorrow so you can open your blind cross eyes. Be sure to follow his magnificent brilliant games though so you won’t be surprised on how he won the championship.

        Yes you’re 101% right. Nakamura is the best chess player in the world that’s why FIDE rank him #1 in Rapid and Blitz. The rest, pretenders and wannabes. Naka will win both divisions easily.

        So I expect that if Nakamura does not win tomorrow that you will agree he is not #1.

        IMO is does not win and therefore is not truly number one in Rapid and Blitz) [he clearly is NOT number one with std time control] then you should stop with this blind fanboyism going forward so everyone can enjoy Susan’s great site.

        Deal!?

        I don’t know what kind of twisted brain you have… Nakamura is in #14 position with one more day of competition, no way for him to win. Your not only blind, dumb but your also a jackass like your idol. Tommorow we will see how Nakamura will cry again as Carlsen will win the Rapid World Championship. Poor Nakamura, cant win the standard world chess championship now cant also win the Rapid World Championship because Carlsen is around lol

        I think there are many copycats.
