Here we go again (Niemann vs. Kramnik)

I don’t like him since his anti-war statement turned out to be a kissing of Putin‘s ass.

I don’t like his no-castling chess either.
The link was from over a year ago but I agree with Kramnik on that.
Chess is degraded by playing with no increment.

I don't agree with the silly behaviours against Niemann, but I would like to see far more GMs playing online with increment of at least 2 seconds per move and ideally 3-5 seconds.
I don't think there's anything here other than kramnik is a sore loser.

but, not liking to lose seems to be a good trait to have to be the world number 1. carlsen has also shown he doesn't like losing.

what is it, a week after niemann got his chess.com account back? anyone that thinks niemann would cheat a week after everything he went through isn't very good at thinking.
Even if the dispute between Niemann and Carlsen/cheese.com is now officially settled, mistrust towards Niemann is obviously still there ... unfortunately.

Kramnik's reaction after his defeat is absolutely embarrassing!

The only embarrassing part is Hans Cheatman doesn’t have a lifetime ban from Fide and USCF.
There is no scandal except in the headlines. Kramnik is simply a bad loser. If he has a suspicion against Niemann, he shouldn't compete. This Russian is unbearable. I would have taken the points and laughed at him.
Niemann cheated and was left behind. other topic. who doesn't like it, should use legal means and not this kindergarten Nah Nah

I dont think I want to spend 46 minutes on that. The first analysis video you posted wasn't from anyone near Kramnik's strength, but it was very convincing and interesting. But if anyone does spend 46 minutes, I'd be interested in hearing what you think!
