Prediction for the Gukesh-Ding world championship

Sort:
FarewellToKings2112

You heard it here first:

Ding will likely try 1. c4 again, but this time Gukesh will play in another style with 1. Nf6 and 2. e5, and Gukesh will win because Ding gets too low on time and makes a huge error in time pressure.

Let's see how wrong I am!

welp, I was half-right. Not 1. c4 but Gukesh did win because of some crazy blunder in time pressure

Ding had 10 minutes left, so not the craziest pressure, but the ending was far from trivial
