AnnaHOST
Der VIP-Tagespass ermöglicht zusätzlich für eine begrenzte Zeit den Blick in den eigentlichen Spielsaal.
AnnaHOST
Dazu gibt es eine Lounge mit Kommentaren von Peter Svidler und Peter Leko.
AnnaHOST
Das ist durchaus interessant, denn bei einer Weltmeisterschaft ist es normalerweise extrem schwierig, den Spielern wirklich nahe zu kommen.
AnnaHOST
Die Atmosphäre im Saal, die langen Denkpausen und diese fast unheimliche Stille lassen sich über einen Livestream nur bedingt vermitteln.
Ben JohnsonHOST
Amazing stories.
Ben JohnsonHOST
And of course, subsequently, 2013 and 2014, you had the opportunity to work on the candidate's team with your fellow St. Petersburg native Grandmaster Peter Svidler.
Ben JohnsonHOST
So this is proceeding obviously working on Nepo's team.
Ben JohnsonHOST
Uh, were those sort of your first experiences on a high-level team?
Ben JohnsonHOST

JeanHOST
accurate.
JeanHOST
One person does it a lot as well is Peter Swidler.
JeanHOST
If you watch Peter Swidler play on TV, I mean, the guy never looks at the board, basically.
JeanHOST
He's like all over the place all the time.
JeanHOST
It's almost like he says the board is like a distraction for him.
Surya GangulyGUEST
But my biggest takeaway, it's not just from Anand, but the entire team.
Surya GangulyGUEST
Thanks to Anand, I met so many people there, whether it is Rustam, whether it is Svidler.
Surya GangulyGUEST
They were like, I can name maybe, you know, 10 top players who came to Lake Ova.
Surya GangulyGUEST
So what I learned, one thing very common in all of them, their ability to asking questions in everything.
Kamil PlichtaGUEST
And one tournament they were like, okay, Kamil, you just, you know, a few years ago you beat Hikaru.
Kamil PlichtaGUEST
Recently you beat Peter Svidler in some tournament when we had Halloween masks on and nobody knew who he was facing and they were like, okay, let's give you a chance and let you play in this tournament.
Kamil PlichtaGUEST
And the thing is that Magnus wasn't even supposed to be playing there because David Howell was the player who was playing.
Kamil PlichtaGUEST
But David Howell was doing something in Egypt back then and his internet didn't work well, so he couldn't play.
JohnHOST
Because getting into time trouble actually also helps him to find the good moves and so on.
Benjamin PortheaultGUEST
yeah that's I think that's what Peter Svidler said that Grishuk is someone he wants to play the best move obviously I'm not in his head I don't know why it's actually time trouble sometimes people come to me because it's time trouble is the problem and there are a variety of reasons for that but I get into time trouble because I'm slow.
Benjamin PortheaultGUEST
How do you
JohnHOST
mean you're slow? Like you're slow in calculating? Yeah.
Christopher ChabrisGUEST
You probably heard it, but if not, your listeners might like it.
Christopher ChabrisGUEST
I think it was Ben Johnson's interview with Peter Svidler on his old How to Chess podcast, which I think maybe has been retired or is on hiatus.
Christopher ChabrisGUEST
But Svidler was talking about how not to get in time pressure, basically.
Christopher ChabrisGUEST
Yeah.
Cristian ChirilaHOST
I'm gonna be there.
Cristian ChirilaHOST
I'm doing commentary with Peter Svidler and, um, and, um, a FIDE Master from Kazakhs- from Uzbekistan perhaps.
Cristian ChirilaHOST
I'm trying to remember his-
Fabiano CaruanaHOST
Is it Choksy?
