Candidates 2014

http://candidates2014.fide.com/

Русскоязычную версию смотреть невозможно. Эти два "супергроссмейстера"-комментатора сделали себя главными героями трансляции с собственными крупными планами. Вся острота, напряжение, эмоции, все улетучилось, растворилось. Нужна видеокартинка хотя бы как в англоязычной версии и комментатор за кадром Сергей Макарычев. Причем в англоязычной были показаны все пресс-конференции, а не только Карякина и Свидлера. Даже это свои для своих хорошо сделать не могут.
I wonder how thinkabit would get on against one of these GM's..would love to see that!
Maybe he would be able to win some 1+0 games, but he would not have a chance in long games obviously.
Thinkabit could win against most of candidates its a fact. Give him more time to think and he will play much more strong. He obviously playing bullet games for fun and doesnt think much, what we see here at Lichess is just his reflekses and memorized patterns. Long games have much more space for creative thinking and calculation, so Im sure he can do pretty well.
I also believe that thinkabit can do fine there, maybe he is even playing at that tournament :) We dont know his real name, maybe he is one of those super GMs for real ;)

Also I know that Matetricks can win against Nakamura, I saw they were playing at chess.com with commentary of IM Daniel Rensch. Matetricks won 2 times against 3. And thinkabit is rated higher than Matetricks here, aslo he beat him several times, so he must be playing at least GM strength.
In thinkabit's description there was written that he is IM born in Ukraine who lives in US. I think its really stupid comparing skill of thinkabit against super GMs. Even though thinkabit is really strong any GM would crush him not even speaking about top 10 GMs
Maybe I'm wrong but as I remember I would say he used to write on his status: "Ex-ukraine international master living in the states". I don't think he is GM, and he is not playing the candidates tournament for sure. Matetricks or thinkabit can win some bullet games against TopGMs but nothing more.
Well, he could be trolling saying that he is Ukrainian IM. Also I already brought some facts that proves his strength. And who knows how he will behave in a real game against top GM. And Matetricks won against Nakamura in a blitz games not in bullet.
