Please listen to Duda,Keymer, Ali reza do post game analysis. They can speak very well about their ideas. It is not normal to be a 2700 and be unable to give your thoughts on the game you just played.

Yeah, because being a GM is a completely normal thing in the first place. Bobby Fischer was one of the top chess players of all time and was a certifiably insane nut job. There’s nothing normal about being a GM in the first place. Niemann literally just won the biggest game of his life. He did something none of Duda, Alireza, etc have achieved. His situation was not normal. Trying to judge his actions based on whether it’s what Duda, etc would have done themselves in a situation they’ve never found themselves despite having had many opportunities to do so is silly.

  This whole idea of le crazy chess grandmaster is so silly. Fischer, even as he was declining precipitously, was producing cogent analysis and annotations on grandmaster level games. >He did something none of Duda, Alireza, etc have achieved.
