Ding! What an epic finish.

Well played. Wasn't sure we were going to get a result the way things were going.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Well played. Wasn't sure we were going to get a result the way things were going.

Declining the repetition was ballsy. Think that threw Nepo off.

I believe someone called Ding to win 2.5-1.5 before it started?

 

[mattis117]

Declining the repetition was ballsy. Think that threw Nepo off.

For sure, I reckon Nepo had already stopped thinking, expecting the repetition. Forcing him to get back into the game unexpectedly with only a minute only clock won him the title.

Would be nice to get a list of the round 2 games to watch, with the Ding/Nepo match over now...

Good to see every team is getting results. Should be a tight ladder this season.

 

[RalfM]

Excellent game going to Anti Septic which should be no surprise given our ratings difference, but really pushed me to work hard and that showed in the engine's evaluation of how well we played! Thoroughly enjoyed it

 

[Schulzenfest]

I don't think I got a PM this week? Chipmunk

 

[Chipmunk]

I don't think I got a PM this week? Chipmunk

I couldn’t get you into the PM due to the suspension. However it was only a 2 board game so your teammates represented Port this round. The next round is next week, you’ll definitely play then!
