He won't make it.

Why would you say that?? Simply because you have failed severally doesn't mean your mindset should be this shallow. You obviously want him to without uttering a simple word of encouragement.

Bad soul , bad energy , bad people ... I wonder the kind of people you have around you.

Have ever venture into anything tangible in your life?. If not just keep quiet.
Life is all about making an attempt. If you don't fail, you won't fly.

Common ordinary LUDO you can't play for 2 hours and you open your mouth to say a chess master will fail.

Do you think he just started today?. Low esteem and shallow mindset human being

Why is it that some Nigerians are so shallow minded?. Some things is not about money but honour and writing their names in gold.

Many Inventors did not make money from their invention but today we talk about them.

Are his opponents randomly selected or passers-by?

Cos he is not an Igbo man abi. Well done!
Do you play chess? If he is playing against prearranged opponents then it’s possible..but if he played against anyone rated over 1900 he might lose…and how many boards will he be playing on at any given time? These are valid questions to ask for a simultaneous exhibition in a chess record…

I'm so pained to see that some Nigerians are so negatively minded.

The guy is trying to play so as to raise fund for less educated children across Africa due to his background and past experience(CHESS IN THE SLUM) and some who can't buy ordinary pencil for their own children are saying he won't make it and it doesn't make sense.

How do we get to this level?

Best of lucks to him. The guy is good, he played with multitple people at the same time in Germany and won them all.

He's good.

But what are these people's ratings?

It will be difficult to play multiple grandmasters or IM and win all

His opponents are likely prearranged because a random passersby with close to IM or Fide master level strength can easily crash the record before it even starts.

I think it they should be passers-by to make it more challenging, but clearly he is attempting the impossible.

The location has the possibility of meeting someone that is very very good, wish him all the best.

Fausti wey beat magnus for blitz lol. Even kids of 10 years these days are of grandmaster strength, that’s why I said his opponents were likely prearranged.

No..a random passerby might be international master strength and I’m sure there are quite a good number in New York. Tunde isn’t even in the top 20 in Naija so that will be a huge risk to the record.

Well, here we go again. GWR servers are about to suffer another assault from Nigerians that will immediately start attempting to break the record as soon as he wins. T-Man, I’m rooting for you! cool

Did someone tell you that you cannot learn it, when you literally have the internet at your finger tips? I recommend you pick up this book, Kasparov teaches chess, by Garry Kasparov. If it doesn’t kindle your interest, it’ll at least teach you some moves you can use to impress your friends.

Then keep your opinion to yourself and not on the public domain. This is why Whites see we black as fools, instead of us cheering the guy to success you are discouraging him, put yourself in his shoe trying to attend a feat and somebody is talking you down.
How will you feel?
