<jnpope: I finally found my motivation (apparently it was hidden under a sofa cushion).> Don't I know it. |
|
| Mar-07-14 | | Absentee: <AlexandraThess: I am afraid that Carlsen will be destroyed by Anand. He is not yet there with the best like Anand and Kramnik. In such match the result can easily be 3:1 or 4:0 in favor of Anand after the first 4 games.> |

 | | OhioChessFan: More <AlexandraThes> <Great start for the WC Anand. He can draw whenever he wants because of his excellent theoretical preparation. In the next game I am sure Anand will push hard and win. What a great way to start the defence of the title! Bore that arrogant punk with short draws and then sweap him out of the board with the white. We dont need new champion!!! Don't forget that Carlsen looses more games with white. Maybe Anand relies on wins with the black pieces to retain the title.> |

| Mar-07-14 | | whiteshark: (More) <AlexandraThess, <prophetic words <<>>>>: <I firmly believe that Moro is capable of winning the World Champion title. Obviously his time has come - Topalov has started sinking into oblivion; Anand is already a little bit too old; Kramnik will not be fired with such ambition as he was in the match with Topalov. A fine opportunity for Moro to win what he has proven to be worthy of!> Alexander Morozevich, Aug-01-07 |

| Mar-07-14 | | valiant: Apropos predictions ...
<OhioChessFan: I still think Denver wins huge unless the weather is a mess. I could be wrong.You never know in one game, but IMHO if they played 10 times, Denver wins 8.> ----
-- <whiteshark: My predictions for the final standings of CORUS 2008:1. Topalov
2. Kramnik
3. Anand
4. Ivanchuk
5. Leko
6. Aronian
7. Radjabov
8. Mamedyarov
9. Gelfand
10. Adams
11. Carlsen

| | OhioChessFan: <Stonehenge> in reference to a pic on Josef Kling <Nice photo. He was far ahead of his time, see the laptop beside the chessboard.> |
|

 | | FSR: <torrefan>, commenting on the Viktor Korchnoi page: <Without knowing who they are, just by looking at their photos here at CG, you'll readily know that Viktor Korcnoi is the top world-class player and Kenneth Rogoff is not.The dead giveaway is Korchnoi's hair--even it obeys the chess principle that the center must be occupied.> (For comparison: Kenneth Rogoff.) |
|
| Mar-23-14 | | SugarDom: Kenneth Rogoff is hypermodern then. |
|
Mar-23-14
| | TheAlchemist: <RedShield, Nov-21-13, Anand vs Carlsen, 2013 > When Vishy played 24.f6, he should have announced <Connect Four> and claimed the game. |

| Mar-28-14 | | shivasuri4: In response to <AuN1: How would you carlsen fans feel if anand manages to win the candidates tournament then avenges his loss to carlen (sic) to reclaim the world title?>, <Petrosianic: Gee, how would they feel, I wonder? Would Carlsen fans be happy or unhappy if Carlsen lost? Heckuva good question. I'm going to be up all night wondering.>. |

| Mar-29-14 | | shivasuri4: <Absentee: <Tiggler: <offramp: So this is the state of world chess? Anand is the strongest candidate to play Carlsen - but he has already been annihilated by Carlsen.> Botvinnik in 1961 showed how to deal with that situation.> I don't think Anand will be able to turn Carlsen into an alcoholic chain smoker with chronic kidney problems.> Page 2, Live Broadcast Page. |

| Mar-30-14 | | shivasuri4: <KKDEREK: So here's the chess tourist. Karjakin Now I get overgod's point. From 1935 to 2014 doing nothing..Lazy bastard..> Page 207, World Chess Championship Candidates (2014) Note: This is owing to a CG error which will hopefully be rectified soon. |
