Fat & Blokes Pubbington Capital LLP aka SPECIAL SE SYNDICATE
This game is quite dry, a draw is probably 85% likelihood.
Ding with White played a very uninspired opening.
Hikaru: Ding’s opening is what you play in Blitz, not a serious classical game.
Hikaru predicts draw now.
Hikaru: if I had a week to prepare I’d be able to prepare better openings (than Ding) for White with these 2 games.
The darts is 3 ahead with 4 people left to vote so surely will be #1, starts tonight so i've put it on already 5%
lol @ pokerstars having the best odds out of anyone, 4/1 not bad!
Jimmy Van has a bye in to the 2nd round, but first round of 48 can be watched here.
Sorry I forgot to update.
Draw in Game 4 for chess.
2-2 so far. Ding playing such a nonsense opening bodes very well for Gukesh and our wager.
He had literally 6 months to prepare, knowing he’d face Gukesh, and he had said he only prepared the last 3 weeks. I thought he was being facetious… I guess he was serious!
we have the French Defense again as in game 1.
1. e4 e6
White went for exchange french and Ding may be prepared for this line. Gukesh (White) will look to get a nagging type of position, though equal, that will look to pressure Ding.
23. dxe5? blunder by Gukesh (he played the move almost instantly), now only Black can win and Ding can play on without risk.
23. Rxe5 was called for with a likely draw.
My Proposal: IU -29.5 vs. PurdueBit of a homer bet, sure, but this is the best IU team in 50 years going against possible the worst Purdue team in that same time. IU got humbled on the road against tOSU last week, but has been beating the ever loving **** out of lesser teams this year, and there aren't many lesser teams that Purdue.Anything is possible, but IU's margin of victo
Well, this got the fewest number of votes, but with 3 minutes left in the 2nd, IU-28, PUR-0
PUR has 22 yards of total offense...
