Jun-04-11  Aspat: What is shirov thinking for soooooooo long time?
Jun-04-11  Aspat: Guys, I think we have separate platform for discussion regarding candidates.
Jun-04-11  WiseWizard: Shirov, the sacrificial entertainment lamb.

  LucB: ... and it's over!... 0-1
Jun-04-11  Aspat: Shirov resigned in 17 moves!!
Jun-04-11  NGambit: wow! in just 17 moves!!
Jun-04-11  WiseWizard: Went down in flames.
Jun-04-11  Aspat: When does the next game start?
Jun-04-11  Aspat: Anand had huge initiative soon to be converted into material advantage....
Jun-04-11  vraja: I wish Shirov wouldn't have to play all 6 games and face the humilation. It will be so demoralizing for any player, and I hope Anand, the gentle giant, understands the predicament of Shirov.

On the other hand, Shirov can still win a game, after all he is a genius..... Too many things yet to come. Let us see.

Jun-04-11  Aspat: Game 4 started!
Jun-04-11  Aspat: Am I only the only one over here interested in this match?

The toys are great fun. =)

Jun-04-11  WiseWizard: <vraja> I guess you were right. This is an exhibition, honorable King Anand displayed great tact in today's second game.
