Hi all,
The U.S. Chess Championships in St. Louis have come to an end last week.
In this video I discuss the second half of the tournament in which both Aleksandr Lenderman and Varuzhan Akobian seemed to have the best chances of becoming the new champion.
But in the end…
Enjoy the video!

Only the day before yesterday the enigmatic Alexander Morozevich was the virtual no. 1 in the world. Yesterday he lost a somewhat silly game against Ivanchuk, taking too much risks and never seeing back his sacrificed pawns. Today he fought a fierce battle with the American revival Gata Kamsky and lost again after an interesting fight. The video analysis of this last game takes approximately 54 minutes. Yes, I’ve gone crazy… So get your coffee and donuts, sit back and enjoy the ride!
