American Grandmaster Hans Neemon has taken a zib in Magnus Carlsen ahead of Las Vegas leg of the Freestyle Chess Grand Slam Tour, where both are likely to close the horns.Neemon is one of the 16 players participating in the Las Vegas leg of the freestyle chess Grand Slam Tour. In his group, he will face Fabiano Caruana, Arjun Erigasi and Vidit Gujratha.“I honestly think that he is more under pressure because he has a lot to lose more than me,” Neemon told India to India.“For me, I am 22 years old. I have 10 opportunities against them, okay? If I lose them, it’s nothing to be embarrassed, right?“They are great players, but for them, if they lose – looking at history – it will be quite disastrous, you know? So, I think they feel more pressure.“Recently, my results against Hikaru and Magnus Online have been very good.“I think against Hikaru this year, I am 5 and -1 and, and all win I was decisive to win the tournament. So, I am doing better than Hikaru. I defeated Magnus and Hikaru back-to-back.

What do you think you will have to face more pressure in their upcoming match: Hans Neemon or Magnus Carlsen?
“Even against Alireza, I’m 3–0 recently. So, I think I do not feel the nerves that I felt against the top people. I think they have the opportunity to play in online blitz help you in their level and potential stress that can lead to the whole game.“They have a lot to lose. So, I would say they are stressed (are facing me). If you have seen my fast game against Hikaru – he was winning completely, but then he became a blunder. I am cheating him very much. So, it is a sign of stress.”If the two are faced, it will only be the third time when Carlson and Neemon played each other as Norwegian has accused Neemon of cheating after losing her in a Sinquifild Cup game in 2022. The incident prosecuted $ 100 million, which was eventually resolved.
