A few days ago, Karjakin tried to tilt Magnus by showing up very late for the press conference as a way to be disrespectful.
Anyone know if there were there any other psych outs that happened? Historically, there have been some really interesting ones in the chess world.
- chocimir 10y agoKarjakin wasn't disrespectful. He just gave a couple of short post-match interviews that Carslen intentionally skipped, went straight to the conference room and was waiting there. The post match interviews were standard up to that point in the match. Carslen decided to skip them after he lost the game.
- dfreire 10y agoIf anyone was disrespectful in that occasion, it was Magnus. He refused to talk in the flash interview, went immediately to the press conference, and had to wait 90 seconds or so before deciding to leave because Karjakin was still in the flash interview Magnus had refused.
