I am struggling to determine whether Anish Giri is roasting himself or his second. :/

Till 60s a GM was usually a taxi driver as Rossolimo. It was easy for a chessplayer to remember all Big Apple's streets and avenues, I think.

Being a pawn and part of broader chess constituency, we all need to hold our Chess Senators accountable for what they “do for us.” They should not fall asleep at the wheelhappy.png

His second is his wife and he is her second!

Anish is also prone to being very witty and humorous, So don't be so sure he's being serious

Hahaha, Anish is quite witty but it was more RoaringPawn's pointed observation that prompted my "Ouch!".
