13.31 / 7.31 am: By the way: the first official World Championship began in New York, 130 years ago. The match between Wilhelm Steinitz and Johannes Zukertort took place from 11th January to 29th March 1886, and the first five games were played in the Manhattan Chess Club. Zukertort did well in New York and went 4-1 ahead. But then the match moved to St. Louis and New Orleans, and Zukertort suffered a reversal of fortune. In the end Steinitz won 12.5-7.5 to become the first official World Chess Champion.

Karjakin nervous, Carlsen nervous, what the hell? where are these steel nerves of Karpov and Kasparov? hmmmm
