There are three rounds to go…
Actually Im quite sure there will be 3 rounds to go, but dont worry Im sure you can more or less copy paste the article for tomorrow and today you can just edit it to “Kramnik wins dortmund with 3 rounds to spare”, after all, it feels very true 😉
They play double round robin, a total of ten rounds, so there are three rounds to go.
3 more rounds to go.
I count three rounds to go, not two, so proclaiming Kramnik the winner is still mathematically premature.
His play has been awesome, but let’s not jump the gun, here.
but eh, are there not 3 rounds to go?! 🙂

Wasn’t there an article just last week calling Nakamura the next Bobby Fischer? Sure looks kind of silly now doesn’t it?
Can anyone please tell me how many rounds to go?
