Great to see Ivanchuk win today. He deserves to play in the Candidates Matches. but I guess he will not be their.
I am shocked by Topalov. only 1/2 point. still plenty of time but I wonder if he has relaxed too much. I thought it would take Anand to give him a run for the tournament win but other have stepped up to challenge topalov.
first 2 days and we have had 3 decisive games each day. that is great for chess. nice exciting games. and I have been lucky to watch them on the internet.
