Kosteniuk is the favorite to win. She’ll crush Hou Yifan like a bug.
Horrible way for a world champion to be treated….but she’s certainly a good sport about.it. Very sorry to the previous poster who will not give his name..but mrs Kosteniuk…although being a great embasador to chess..she’s certainly not the best in womens chess..thats just pretty obvious. Probably all three of the polgars could clean her clock..with no problems..Not to mention any of the top ten girl players..
You’re just a Kosteniuk hater. She clearly the best in chess. She’ll kick Anand’s behind if they play a match. She’ll crush any of the Polgars. And Hou Yifan is no match for her. She can play chess while tweeting and updating her blog at the same time and still win easily.
Please do not bash anyone on this blog. Thank You very much.
