Seems like he always has excuses when he craps the bed at a major tournament.  What's his excuse going to be for this one?

I was using Stockfish's recommended move and it was wrong.

Naka gets dramatical and says: "The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Greed has poisoned men’s souls - has barricaded the world with hate - has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical; our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost."

That's a really long excuse.

Anyone watching live coverage?  Nakamura has spent half his time pouting and looking at Carlsen.  Carlsen is already in his head.

So hard to predict who will finish first (and last).  It seems like really anyone could win it.
