 David Howell and Hikaru Nakamura joined the pack of wolves at six and a half David joins us at our Gibraltar studio David a balance came from start to finish. How did it go? Yes, I was surprised in the opening. I spent far too long on the clock as usual I mean you say balanced, but I was always the one who had the chances I was a bit better at least but I couldn't turn it into anything and he seemed to find a way to draw quite smoothly So he was very frustrated at the board visibly, but yeah, I can't complain too much You know when I've surprised out the opening and there's no risk at all. It's it's a good game So you mentioned he seemed a bit frustrated on the board Does this go back to the history that both of you share from from the Gibraltar Masters a couple of years ago? At least he says some nice things to me after the game this time I went through a job ancient history, but hopefully it's water under the bridge Also this time the game was I mean that game was obviously did not Go too well for you, but today was pretty good. Yeah, I I drew that one as well, but Yeah, I mean like I played him last year as well and that one I had some winning chances So we've had some very dramatic games here in Gibraltar Yeah, one day I'll get him, but yeah, I guess this time we went on board one which we were the last two times So yeah, now Dave you didn't start very well, but for back-to-back wins. What changed? I Stopped preparing. I stopped looking at the pairings tonight before I don't know just luck. I guess. I mean, I was very lucky actually in the first victory out of those four But then I picked up a bit of momentum, I guess and hopefully I've still got enough energy for one last game tomorrow Going into the last round six and a half points. How do you estimate your chances expectations? Zero expectations. I'll just wing it and hope for the best. So we wish you all the best. Thank you, Tonya
