Naka is a cunt desu

Caruana playing Naka today

It's going to be a important game for the final standings. Even though there are twelve players in the field, I think only the big three have a chance of winning the event.

I hope Kamsky proves me wrong.

The games have begun.

>sowinslol

He hasn't won the US Championship before.

"""""""""""""US"""""""""""""" Chess Championship

wtf I love azns now

but hes on a streak is what im saying

us is all immigrants at some level, not a very cogent point

you should be supporting native American chess players,

like Sam Shankland

Does So know the rules of chess this year?

>Gata
JUST

fucking wish Maurice would shut up
he's so smug when he has that engine running

Will Jefferey Xiong be elite?

It's still hard to believe that he was in the absolute world elite only four years ago.
Quite possibly. He's looking good for fourth board in Batumi.

>already 16 years old
>lower rated than Sam Shankland

he's finished

>us is all immigrants at some level, not a very cogent point
>all immigrants

mfw tired meme is tired.
humans are immigrants to the planet if you need to look at it that way

mfw Canadians dominating again

What do you mean? There has never been a single Canadian player in the world elite.

>humans are immigrants to the planet if you need to look at it that way

>who is Kevin Spragget

You can't say that Kevin Spraggett was ever in the world elite.

?
what

The point here is people look at a list of last names from america and they so "those arent American names", when in fact there is no such thing as and American name. Theyre all foreign based. So it doesnt make sense to do that kind of thing.

How many Canadian championships have the so called """""world elite""""" won m8?

>wymins chess

why dont they play the men

Great, Nazi won.

theyre unironically too good

who?

the women
