Listen Later

We are back with another "bonus pod" discussing the unpredictable and riveting World Championship Match between GM Ian Nepomniatchtchi and Ding Liren. After Round 9, Nepo clings to a one game lead as they head into a rest day Saturday. To discuss this eventful match, I am joined by return guest, the popular YouTuber, Twitch Streamer and Chessable Author, IM Andras Toth. Andras is especially insightful when it comes to helping amateur chess players, so I thought he was the perfect person to discuss all of the drama of the match, as well as what we can lessons we can learn for our own games. You can find timestamps of topics discussed below.

CORRECTION- I mention "5 wins in a row" having taken place in the match a few times- it was actually only 4 wins in a row. My apologies.


2:00- Big picture - What has made this match so compelling?

14:30- Patreon mailbag question- what does Andras think of the approach the players have taken to opening prep

20- Patreon mailbag question why haven’t we seen a Sicilian or a Kings Indian Attack? 

24- We discuss the “leaked prep” via anonymous Lichess accounts that were playing several opening lines that subsequently appeared in the match- More info here

30- What are the chess improvement lessons to be taken from the match so far?

1:04- Closing thoughts on the match
