Even the undisputed best chess player in the world is currently in competition mode. Earlier in the month, Magnus Carlsen took part in an online tournament from which he was eliminated due to a wrong mouse click. Last week he sat down at a poker table in Los Angeles and received a round of applause for a bluff. And once the Norwegian also reported with a contribution to the World Chess Championship, which is currently taking place in Astana. When there was a rare maneuver in the opening of a game, he asked a former second via Twitter whether this line had already been checked in previous title fights.
