Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
But Carlsen is much higher rated on the live list.
Officially my A$$ Everyone knows that Fide ratings list are ridiculous. Carlsen is #1 and every knows it. If Anand even thinks of claiming this he’s as dellusional as the rest of the corrupt Fide establishment.
Bleh….Fide ratings are for people who plant rice….cause thems the ones that voted em in. Everyone knows that this rating system is not accurate….I just wonder why anyone even pays any attention to this federation anymore…seriously. It’s an offence to intellectuality that anyone considers FIDE as any authority on anything. Big UFO..Small Country bashing..corrupt…ugh…Fide is disgusting.
haha…paper #1 perhaps.
Live ratings RUUULLLLLEEEE!
I love Anand…but still….it will be a question of Character if he actually considers himself #1. Because we know…and everyone else does…he’s not. Fide Beaurocratic loopholes…etc.. I wonder how he’ll (Anand) react to this. I think he’s definately #2 though….and that’s pretty good. Botvinnik always was not top rated.
Obviously Vishy a much better player. chessbase you havent even seen my pretty smile yet, i mean when your talkin about who really competitive, but you can keep moving that knight i a circle.
I don’t understand all this racist Vishy bashing! He is not responsible for the rating list! In tennis (women’s tennis especially) we see people ranked # 1 who have not won grand slams. Vishy has surmounted mountains to claim and retain the World Championships. That shows character. I’m sure Carlsen can do it,but until then you patzers & woodpushers better give the World Champ some respect.
Carlsen is very very good – no doubt. But let him show his character by winning the candidates first. Sure he can, but if he does not the same racist excuses will surface again – blame Fide, blame the format etc etc.
I think FIDE left out the results of the Nanjing tournament in which Carlsen gained back some of his lost rating points. Topalov is also much higher rated than his actual rating (he lost even more points in Nanjing).
personally….with the candidate tournaments as they orgisised..more like crap shoot…..If I were Carlsen..or anyone with a ligitamate shot…I’d just ignore it. Fide is a joke…and protecting their little king…its almost blasphemous to look at…..I so miss the old days when matches meant something..If I were Carlsen..I’d just ignore the Fide stuff.
Congrats to Vishy – coming on strong since the Topalov match. Carlsen on the other hand has not shown himself consistently superior to either Anand or Kramnik. Maybe he’s going to be another Topalov – great rating but can’t get it done when it counts.
some of the comments amaze me.
in 2010, Anand played Carlsen 4 times and is +1. played kramnik thrice and is +1. played Topalov 14 times and is +2. played Shirov thrice and is +1.
He is the the most versatile world champion ever winnning in every format and every time control over the years. He doesnt need to prove anything to anybody.
Carlsen had a sorry Olympiad and Bilbao just before Nanjing and even with Nanjing managed to lose 15 points. Anand in the same period gained 8 points including Nanjing.
Anand (and for that matter Kramnik) >> Carlsen on achievements to date AND on recent performance.
Hopefully the London classic chess will clear up everything. Sigh long wait till December.
Congratulations to Aronian. He is the sixth GM to cross the 2800 line. A great achievement no doubt.
Anon 1:01:00 pm CDT explains everything. At any rate Anand is World Champ and nobody has bragging rights until they wrest it away from him!!
Well basically, according to Kasparov, Vishy Anand is a coffeehouse player. So it is surprising to see him at number one. Also, Kasparov has his doubts that Magnus will go anywhere with chess because he has other priorities. And, technically speaking, Kasparov still is the world’s number one player, since no one has surpassed his rating.
Other than Lionel Davis, surprised to see no other rice-pickers out there for a long tirade against racial stereotypes…so, come on, purities, go for it – the bone is nigh!
Anand is a fine player, but his countrymen are a disgusting rabble of squeakers – the white conspiracy is always in their eyes – it’s everyone else against the poor cart-hoppers! Don’t you feel sorry for their holy cows and mungos?
Any one who is chess expert will tell you anand vs carlsen anand is the better player and would crush carlsen in a important world campionship match, which is where he puts in all of his energy
Reg: anon 11:55:00 CDT
‘mungos’ you mean mangoes!
Goes to show that most inflammatory and disgusting comments come from ill-informed and illiterate chess patzers. So their comments bear no weight whatsoever.

Remember Carlsen helped Anand in preparation for world title. Also, remember Anand said several times Carlsen would be future World Champion. They like & respect each other. FIDE ratings are simply mathematical formula and both of them don’t bother much about them. Just wait till Topalov and Anand recover from World Title. Along with Aronian, Shirov and others, top level will be crowded indeed. Let us enjoy their games rather than going crazy in deciding who is No.1.
Yes, Anand is a coffee house player. His coffee house is the world.
I wonder what Anand has to do to satisfy everyone,esp.the redneck chess types.He is perhaps the most consistent and strongest player since Kasparov,having squarely beaten everyone in almost all forms of play.Kramnik and Topalov know it only too well.He has beaten Carlsen more often than lost and his record against most top grandmasters is impeccable.Yes Carlsen will be the next champion,but he has to first do battle in the bloody arena against several hungry opponents before he can even remotely claim the crown.
I believe that Anand will rule for at least another 5 years.Till then let Carlsen grow up guys.Playing like Anand has over the last 2 decades deserves a hell of a lot of respect,so stop the insults which harm no one else but the writers and their pea brains.
