The 2009 World Cup is now down to just 4 players from 128. Gelfand (Israel) will face Karjakin (Ukraine) while Ponomariov (Ukraine) will take on Malakhov (Russia).
The London Chess Classic will start on Monday with Carlsen, Kramnik, Nakamura, Ni Hua and 4 top British players.
It’s Saturday Open Forum. The forum is yours. What would you like to discuss?
Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
exccept that carlsen is playing…seriously…who cares?
How about news from the World Chess Federation’s Championships in Las Vegas?
Why to you think Leko declined to play in the World Cup? He most likely will not be part of the candidates tournament next year.

“except that carlsen is playing…seriously…who cares?”
What a moron! It takes two hands to clap & in takes two players to make a match. Also who cares if Carlsen is playing unless he has good opposition.
Well, then, Susan, you must know the “mystery” woman?

Susan,
What is your Chanukah wish for this season?
What are your major chess plans for 2010?
Found this on YouTube today…one of my favorite episodes of Frasier, where he tries to beat his dad at chess.
Best line: “Checkmate, Schwartzkopf!!”
