Nakamura and Carlsen are playing a private match, according to Hikaru Nakamura himself.
Nakamura said, “Yes, it’s what you believe. Carlsen and I are playing a private classical match. If the chess community or some generous billionaire can come up with $1M US we will split the funds and release the PGNs. Any takers?”
In the end it turned out to be a technical glitch of 2700chess.com, which Nakamura was joking about. Still, we are sure if someone comes up with 1 million usd for a Nakamura – Carlsen match, the players will not decline to participate.
