Preparation behind the scenes! felt a tiny bit awkward making this video because I don’t think anybody else tries doing content while playing in the World Cup 😁😅 but it’s alright, I wanted to show you guys what the most important chess tournaments kind of look like! 🐬 I’m pretty sure I’ve also flipped a coin for openings before, so I definitely don’t do this at every single over the board tournament I’ve played in, but definitely for nationals, worlds, Olympiads I try my darn hardest 💪

My first round is against Vaishali R as black. You can find the full pairings here: https://worldcup.fide.com/
