I predicted Nakamura’s Bongcloud on St. Louis Rapid & Blitz
And in my previous post, I predicted Naka would play Bongcloud in this tournament.
Well, actually I didn’t precisely predict it; I just mentioned he could play it.
Well, I only mentioned the possibility that he would play it, but then I said that maybe he would not play it.
What I really said was that I didn’t think he would play it in this tournament.
Still, it counts as a prediction…
He played it and he won…
Again…
Good luck to everybody, and take care!!!
Stay home as much as possible.
HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!!
