Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Topalov – Anand: 0-1 (Topalov fumbles and allows Anand to catch him at 5-5)
Radjabov – Aronian 1/2-1/2
V. Kramnik – M. Carlsen 1-0 (Maybe next year, Magnus. You have potential, but these big dogs bite pretty hard.)
Karjakin – Navara 1/2-1/2
Motylev – Svidler 0-1 (Svidler got a taste of winning with black, and he likes it!)
van Wely – Ponomariov 1/2-1/2
Shirov – Tiviakov 1-0 (Finally!)
Agree with dan dalthorp..
