> Strange play by Caruana and Firouzja today. Like they felt they had to play dubious moves and complicate the game in order to win with black. Doesn't work well against top players.

Answer to number 13# question CMDERG_CHESS the Qf2X with X meaning end of the game because Alireza resigned.
"in typical Najdorf fashion it was probably losing before Caruana was even out of his preparation." Dang Lichess really roasted the Najdorf hard with this one lol
