bring back 1993 type of coverage please :-)
grrr! we live in a golden age when Grischuk and Girr do live commentary and people are longing for the days when Carol Vorderman interrupted Spess whenever he started to analyse!
only after the game. Was fine during the game and watching on channel 4 in the house.

Need to find a stream this time around

Anyone recommend a good site to follow the match
https://chess24.com/en/wcc2018
Live commentaries from Peter Svidler, Alexander Grishuck and Anish Giri.
Jan Gustafsson is missing, so we can assume is again part of Carlsen seconds.

This site is unlikely to be blocked by corporate firewalls and it seems it will show the game:

Thanks Paolo!

I'll buy you a drink with the 20 dollars I didn't spend (not that I ever intended to!)
