Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Amazing results!
What exactly was so amazing about the results, oh you frequent and fast anonymous poster?
The Topalov Carlsen game was great. Carlsen went up 2 pawns toward the end but Topalov had mating attacks. It all ended in a draw. The position was dangerous for both sides. Topalov down 2 pawns and a mistake would be fatal. Carlsen up 2 pawns with hopes for the win but a mistake and he was mated. It was good drama.

What is amazing is that you used 15 words and said absolutely nothing.
To “chess analyst”:
You just did exactly the same.
Cheers.
P.S. And what I may have done once, this 1st “anonymous” does it here with every posted subject. But you don’t seem to have any problem with *him*. How come?
