So many things about this. Tomorrow is 9-11. This is Garry Kasparov and Vishy Anand in 1995 on top of the World Trade Center. I was there at age 7 and remember Game 10 and Ng5 by Kasparov. Tomorrow the #Chess9LX by St Louis Chess Club starts with Kasparov playing, and me. Wow.

This is one Chess960 position you wouldn't easily confuse with normal chess!
Light at the end of the tunnel for MVL, who scrapes a first half point of #Chess9LX! https://chess24.com/en/watch/live-tournaments/saint-louis-chess-9lx-2020/4/1/3
Ouch! Garry blunders (mouse slips?) a piece in a great position against his punisher last year, Fabiano Caruana! https://chess24.com/en/watch/live-tournaments/saint-louis-chess-9lx-2020/4/1/1
