Hi all,

I have only got into chess this year, more or less by accident found out about the World Championship rematch, happening this month.

Is this broadcast live anywhere ? with occasional actual live feed from the room they are playing in as well as a digital board?

Do you know anywhere where a decent GM will be commentating on the games, as they happen? I'd like to watch it but can't find one.

I've found a couple of places with a computer analysis, but I want to watch ideally an onlive live feed with a board, or at least online with a decent GM commntating live?

Any ideas?

Thanks

OP, official site and chess24 are good guesses, chessbomb too if you aren't interested in video commentary

I watched kingscrusher's stream for game 4 although I guess its an acquired taste and not near svidler's goating

Can I watch any of the games in their entirety on youtube somewhere? By that I mean real time. Er, I don't mean 'live'. Just let's say 5+ hour video.

You can watch recorded coverage here at the official website of the match. It's not Youtube, but hopefully the interface is still good enough to enjoy the videos. (I agree, it's too well-hidden.)

I generally find ICC's coverage of live events to be, by far, the best.
