I'm 2-1 vs him right now, my goal is to never play him again . I tried that when i was 2-0 but got paired with him and beaten. :(

i'll be there but please 3+1 no 3+2

I m in. By the way add me in lichess (spadel), we can also play some tonight or so

By the way if there are any French player out there I strongly advise you to watch the after-show of the Candidates tournament (currently under way) by Laurent Fressinet and JB Mullon. It's just amazing analysis and hindsights on top players preparation (Fressinet is works with Carlsen on his opening preparation). In particular I recommand you the analysis of Maxime Vachier-Lagrave victory against Nepomniachi in today's edition, which is a truly beautiful game with elegant geometrical moves and play on both sides of the board.

On the French show they fought it was quite needed (which basically means that Nepo screwed earlier though). In term of quality I think the Ding-Caruana game was better but this one was more beautiful.

Could we do the next one of these a little later in the day, like 16 GMT? I like chess but I don't like 7 am.

Yeah they are good too, and they were the first to stream in French so they started it all.

Can I stream this?

On second thought this is either in (4.25 or 6.25) +24 hours so I'll definitely be asleep unless I'm not.

I think i wont change the time or settings of this one, but will maybe do an extra one later with other settings.

It's 14 GMT right ?

Yes, so starts in 28 minutes.

lichess down for me

I have accounts on chess24 and chess.com if you want
