Vishy Anand – Magnus Carlsen 1/2
Peter Leko – Veselin Topalov 1/2
Vassily Ivanchuk – Peter Svidler 1/2
Levon Aronian – Alexander Morozevich 1-0
Topalov and Anand were very lucky today. Carlsen’s play doesn’t make good impression to me, neither his arogant non-verbal attitude.
begemot: what do you mean by “his arrogant non-verbal attitude”?
I see no arrogance in Magnus Carlsen, only a young, concentrated boy still a bit uncomfortable by all the attention.

Anand could have been lucky today, but one cant say the same for all the number of years where he has consistently maintained being amongst the top 3 players in the world. He is playing fantastically and should win this tournament, sealing a victory with todays win over Carlsen.
ARROGANT ATTITUDE,YOU COULDN’T BETTER DESCRIBED HIM,A LITTLE SNOB
Anand – Carlsen 1-0
Leko – Topalov 0-1
Ivanchuk – Svidler1-0
Aronian – Mrozevich 1/2
iReading the comments on this blog is an utter waste of time, isn’t it?
I got a wee bit excited when I first stumbled upon this blog, but the level of discourse here is just so … …
can u tell me a website for alive commentary?
Yes, the comments on Carlsen here, yet again raises the question: Why are there so many bitter neurotics in the chess community?
pin answering your question, i guess there´s many envy even in chess circles, its amazing what some people come up to, werent you never 15 years old?
come on hes just a boy 5 year s older than me. leave him alone!!
