Niemann-Vidit Match 2025
Mark Crowther - Sunday 29th June 2025
The Hans Moke Niemann against Santosh Vidit blitz match on Endgame.ai eventually took place 28th to 29th June 2025 after being announced for earlier in the week. Niemann won 12-6 on day 1 which was 3m+1spm blitz and 10.5-7.5 on day 2 which turned out to be Chess960 (in advance material there was no mention so I concluded it would be two days of standard blitz) and 3m+2spm blitz. On day one Niemann lost game 8 due to a mouse-slip and won on time in game 11 which he seemed to regard as payback.
The downloadable PGN from the official site got a bit closer, the starting positions on day 2 for Chess960 were a real bonus, having the same players as white and black in every game meant half were wrong. Also still no results but fixing all this took less time than previous events. I don't have a way to display Chess960, but both day's games are available for download.
