“Herzlichen Glückwunsch” again
Great job!
Extreme!! Especially because the transmission of the blitz was not available – for me.
Okay Gelfand is a bear! And Pono will make it next time. He is very much better than most of the fans think about him.
okay from germany
All hail Boris Gelfand! Score one for the mature player.
Thats one for the older guys there’s still hope! congratulations Boris!!
Gelfand is truly deserves the win. He really inspires the younger generation.
Great job!
Indeed he deserves a huge congratulations. After all, he won out of 128 chess players, quite a few from the top echelon.
I for one, value this format more, than when some organizer invites 8 players (whoever they are) in a totally arbitrary fashion and they play one round of round robin (see London Chess Classic, or whatever the official name is).
who cares.
Congratulations! Boris is older than me, but…
I like the London Chess Classic much better. This fast elimination is senseless. It does not produce the best challenger for the world champion match.
They may as well flip coins and save energy. Although there is a bias toward the higher rated players winning.
Gelfand won with Rybka installed in that dead poodle hat of his! Someone needs to check and see if a chess computer is hiding in that furry hat!
The truth is out there!
Gelfand proved to be one step ahead. I predicted Gelfand win since round 2.
Congratulations, Boris, you are the greatest!!!
Go further, you must be No 1 and the World Champion within 2 years!
