May-06-13 Anand-Carlsen World Championship (2013) 
| |
|
polarmis: <Dionysius1: I read somewhere recently that playing in their home countries has not favoured past champions anyway - that challengers have won more in the champion's home country than elsewhere. Does anyone with more knowledge of chess history than I have know if that's ...

| | May-06-13 Magnus Carlsen
| |
|
polarmis: <sovesveis: Polarmis, do you think the Anand-Gelfand match had the same value coming to marketing as the upcoming Anand-Carlsen match> Well, if you were talking about "marketing value" the prize fund for Anand-Gelfand would probably have been $1.5-2 million less than it was ...

|
| | May-03-13 Veselin Topalov
| |
|
polarmis: <jhoro: The whole thing started after San Luis spurred by Moro. He allegedly nominated Danailov, Rybka and Hydra as player of the year in this order.> Actually the order was 1. Rybka, 2. Hydra and 3. Danailov with Topalov not in his Top 10 for the Oscar nominations! I think ...

| | May-01-13 FIDE Grand Prix Zug (2013)
| |
|
polarmis: <stanleys: Morozevich continues with provocations> Possibly, but then if asking for anti-cheating measures at the Grand Prix is a provocation Danailov did it first: https://twitter.com/SilvioDanailov/... <Zero anti-cheating measures in FIDE Gran Prix in Zug,even simple ...

| | Apr-18-13 Vladimir Kramnik
| |
|
polarmis: <metatron2>, why is the fact someone's in the Top 5 in the rating list at any moment somehow more important than his form, except it sounds better for you? Radjabov played the tournament with a performance rating of 2627, which isn't even Top 100 play. "Ridiculous hyperbole" ...

| | Apr-18-13 Vugar Gashimov
| |
|
polarmis: The following at least is public knowledge - Macauley Peterson wrote in New in Chess 2012#8: <Gashimov is currently undergoing treatment for a brain tumour, and requested to play only in the [FIDE Grand Prix] events scheduled for 2013, to provide for ample recovery time.>

| | Apr-15-13 Ivanchuk vs Kramnik, 2013
| |
|
polarmis: <pablo333: With his habitual Berlin Defense, Kramnik would have secured at least a draw.> It's hard to play the Berlin against 1.d4, but in any case the problem was that playing normally and drawing would allow Carlsen to take a draw and win the tournament. As it was all the ...
|
|
| | Apr-14-13 Aronian vs Kramnik, 2013
| |
|
polarmis: I think it's probably relevant that even if they didn't have the exact computer analysis they could see the Chess Casting evaluation was a draw - so knowing the "result" it's easier to fill in the gaps. Having said that, I was very impressed with how much Short/Trent saw in that ...
