  12. 1:13:34 – Regarding mark on his forehead: nothing to do with luck, it more kind of part of everyday life. Smear across the the forehead after taking bath (pure)

    After doing some research, looks like that is probably called Pattai or more specifically Vibhuti to honor Lord Shiva (God of destruction in order to recreate)

    According to wiki – Vibhuti is sacred ash made of burnt dried wood, burnt cow dung and/or cremated bodies used in Agamic rituals

  14. The coverage is bad.

    1) There was the game where Jorden was down a piece against Carlsen – we couldn't see it, we just heard about it. Then Carlsen blundered, and Jorden won – and we didn't get to see.

    2) At 2:00:02, Duda has a slight advantage. Then the bar swings way over to Le's side: winning advantage. What happened? We didn't get to see it. Then 2:00:08 the bar swings back to the middle. What did Le do wrong to lose his winning advantage? We don't know. Then a few seconds later, at 2:00:17, the bar swings way over the Duda's side. What happened? We didn't get to see it. Apparently exciting stuff happening in the Duda/Le game, but we didn't get to see it, because they can focus on only 1 game????????

  15. Let's be perfectly clear. Trent might have made a chessable course on the opening but a Norwegian did it better first!! If my memory serves me correctly, I believe the Correspondence player Anker Aasum produced a book written in German about 1 Nc3. I have it hiding somewhere In my 1600 plus chess books (7 lawyers oak bookshelves and numerous boxes).
