Apr-24-15 Anand vs Adams, 2015 
|
honeypot: My guess is that Anand will continue to remain the second best player after Carlsen for another five years "at least". |

Dec-18-14 London Chess Classic (2014) 
|
honeypot: <dumbgai> I agree, I included Aronian only because of lack of choice...even he is old now...but where are the damn youngsters?? |

Dec-15-14 Viswanathan Anand 
|
honeypot: Congrats Vishy. You rock! |

Nov-13-14 Carlsen - Anand World Championship Match (2014) 
|
honeypot: Karpov vs Kasparov was a lot about prep and hard work. Likewise Anand. Similarly Kramnik and Gelfand. The era of unadulterated human intellect and hard work ended thereafter. Calrsen is more like the naturally gifted Ivanchuk or Toplaov who set their own rules and win only based on |

Oct-19-14 Aronian vs Anand, 2013 
|
honeypot: <Natalia Pogonina> Where is the doubt? This WAS the best game played in 2013. The jury had an easy choice going by the fact that this one got 326 points and the #2 got just 179. |

honeypot: Greatest draw ever. |

Sep-18-14 Anand vs F Vallejo Pons, 2014 
|
honeypot: With nothing left to prove and the burden of being World Champ behind him, Anand really seems to be enjoying his game. I wonder if the great man can cross 2800 yet again. Inflation has killed even Fischer, but I think a 2800 rating at age 45 will stand for a very very long time ... |

Sep-15-14 Bilbao Masters (2014) 
|
honeypot: Shouldn't Chess have a handicap for players over 40? |

Sep-15-14 Anand vs Ponomariov, 2014 
|
honeypot: Good old nail-biting precision from Vishy!
Patzers like me had little clue while the game was alive and engines switched off. Guess he's back! |

Jul-18-14 Wesley So 
|
honeypot: Relax guys - now that your hero is finally performing - it pays to be humble. You should have realised his potential much earlier though. And unless you improve, Wes will only be remembered for his @#$%ty army of spammer fans rather then for the brilliant games of Chess he played |
