good team, good balance of human and machine analysis (humans speaking first, machines with the last word of course… – good choice). All commentators were very fine, all with very intelligent contributions. Keep up the good work. Thanks.
Why Shevchenko’s flag isn’t Ukrainian?
GOAT🎉
Magnes world champion for ever
Congrats to GM Magnus Carlsen the only one able to do such a performance … i want to thank the whole crew in Saint-Louis also In Warsaw .. you guys are doing a great job to let us learn and enjoy this wonderful game ..
Greatest of all time, Magnus Carlsen
Great chess commentary, but, Yasser: please no "Richie", no "Maggie".
Two impressive things regarding last game. It's impressive how he botched totally winning game. Then it's impressive how he defended difficult endgame and avoided loss
Magnus being magnus
Magnus Carlsen….. GOAT
Hey Yasser.
Can you stop calling him Maggie ffs?
SO EASY MAGNUS
Magnus was just giving headstart to others in first 3 days and still won.. 😂😂😂 wow what a GOAT
gr8, Anastacia most beautiful piece ever….
Great tournament. Fantastic chemistry between comentators. Good times to be alive.

I like the analysis of Var, a refreshing improvement after the cockiness of the guy he replaces
GOAT
Yasser was so sure of a play-off, lol
4:28:30 I just realized, Magnus has some cake ngl
That Magnus guy is pretty good. I think he can be world champion some day.
I love to see Yasser Seirawan explaining the games. He Indeed is the Bob Ross of Chess.
Always good Vibes to you Yasser. Following you since "Chess Master" game tutorial.
Thank you for a great few days of chess 🫶🏼
