2025 FIDE World Cup: Official Discussion Thread
I don't think VLADY KRAMNIK will accused all of CHEATING this time.. Because he will be facing multiple complains if all that he will be accused will commit suicide..
Wow, a $2,000,000 prize fund! That's incredible. I'm also excited to see that three players will qualify for the Candidates Tournament. The single-elimination format with tiebreaks should make for some intense matches. Looking forward to November!
This will be my first world cup since getting into chess
It's exciting. It's my favorite chess event by far.
Gukesh won't win because there's no real motivation to win. Unless he really NEEDS 120,000. The 3 players needing to finish top 3 to qualify for the candidates are way more motivated. Also, Pragg is already going to qualify for the candidates so he doesn't NEED to finish top 3 either.
Abhimanyu Mishra and Vincent Keymar are the two dark horses with very high chances of winning this tournament
