Oct-06-08 Anand - Kramnik World Championship Match (2008) 
|
barbababa: <ksr> <Do you seriously think picking up the best rated player is a good process of selecting a challenger?>

Sep-12-08 Magnus Carlsen

May-03-08 Tomi Nyback

barbababa: <FHBradley> <After seven rounds he's doing almost as he should have been, with rating performance of 2590.> The official site says Tomi had gained 12 rating points after seven rounds http://www.eicc2008.com/en/standing... . Since his rating before the tournament was ... |

Jan-22-08 Corus Group A (2008) 
|
barbababa: <cotdt> Just a guess, but it looks like one small mistake and Kramnik's position falls apart, Topalov's king is much more safe etc. On the other hand, I would lose with both colours. |
