Many astute observers have noted that @GMJSindarov and I are at the same hotel in Cyprus for the same dates, and they’re questioning if I’m on Sindarov’s World Championship Prep Team. While I’m not, I am advising him in a limited capacity about 2.Ke2. The OG prep was for an eventual WC match against Magnus, but as that won’t be happening, the world deserves to have this prep in the open, so I’m sharing it. I’ve also heard that Magnus is sharing his 2.Ke2 prep with @DGukesh. Good Luck to Sindarov and Gukesh, may the best 2.Ke2 win!

🇮🇳 Viswanathan Anand on the mental toll of professional chess:
„When you play at the top level, you spend hours and hours in front of a chessboard or computer screen. Your brain is running at full capacity, constantly calculating variations, anticipating your opponent’s moves, and managing intense pressure. It requires a level of focus and obsession that takes a real heavy toll on your mind.”
„The danger is when chess becomes the only thing in your life. If your entire self-worth is tied to the result of a single game or a tournament, every loss feels catastrophic. That intensity over years can burn a player out or lead to psychological fatigue. That’s why having anchor points outside of chess, family and other interests, is crucial to keeping your sanity over a long career.”

Erdogmus-Oro was a clash of the world's top prodigies at the #ChessOlympiad — a line shown by Erdogmus afterward got transmitted so that it seemed the game ended in a blunder by Faustino. In fact he'd played the best move… but lost on time! https://t.co/LyntL2018u pic.twitter.com/U9ls8ACIDh
