It looks like adios to Nisi and buenos dias to Kamsky…
Wishful thinking?
GATA just won. He beat Mamedyrov. Incredible great. Gata is back at World Championship level. He played a super game.
Nice game Gata.
Wishful thinking? Hmmm…I see Kamsky 1-0, and I do wish for Topalov to muck it up. But I don’t think he will.
Gata plays great when he’s on, but he’s had a couple of lemons too this week.
Sheesh, what was Mickey doing? This is no time to confuse two lines and lose in the opening, which I assume is what happened.

It seems Adams blew the opening and it was all over. Great punishment by Sasikiran!
