Magnus and Hans about to start the second semi-final now.

Ali Reza beat Hikaru in the first semi-final earlier today.

I really enjoy this format for blitz matches, although the commentary not to my taste so I'm watching on mute with music instead.

Fiona & Cristian Chirila are commentating on the Hikaru channel and there are many Twitch channels covering it too.

Quite amusing watching Danny rensch grimace as Nieman calls out the terrible lag on chess.com causing all sorts of crazy input errors to occur, maybe they might actually shell out for some better servers after being embarrassed live during a huge event.
