Hey there
"Nobody checks the Scandinavian anymore. It's not so bad!" Sounds like a ringing endorsement from Fabiano Caruana!

Really happy to see Ukrainian players at the London Chess Classic again! Vasyl Ivanchuk and Ihor Samunenkov in the Masters, and European Champion Roman Dehtiarov from Kharkiv in the Challengers. The English Chess Federation has supported Ukrainian chess players like no other since the beginning of the full scale war! 🇺🇦👏 @xtxmarkets @london_chess
The field is complete for the 2026 London Chess Classic Masters, with defending champion Nodirbek Abdusattorov topping the list!

Great material with a lot of pro insights besides the theory itself. I had some small old file regarding the line but after going through the enclosed PGN, I immediately sent it to the trash. Looking forward to new developments in order to upgrade my whole repertoire!

Many astute observers have noted that @GMJSindarov and I are at the same hotel in Cyprus for the same dates, and they're questioning if I'm on Sindarov's World Championship Prep Team. While I'm not, I am advising him in a limited capacity about 2.Ke2. The OG prep was for an eventual WC match against Magnus, but as that won't be happening, the world deserves to have this prep in the open, so I'm sharing it. I've also heard that Magnus is sharing his 2.Ke2 prep with @DGukesh. Good Luck to Sindarov and Gukesh, may the best 2.Ke2 win!
