Shirov will start a winning streak from today
Shirov seems to be disinterested in his games…
He can definitely play better..
But Shirov is playing with black pieces against probably the best attacker.. do you really think that he has a winning chance?

And my another prediction is that Radjabov and Karjakin will be in first three at the end of the event but can not predict the exact places 🙂 Topalov will be back, Kramnik depends of his desire but I think he will come back from Anand, I personally believe that Kramnik intentionally won’t play in his best, he will play guarantee games. Don’t wait him to make show, kids need show champion will show his real power in the WCC games I am sure he does not care to win this Corus. Take care Susan and all chess fans.. Hayri
I can predict Kramnik draws, that is what always happens. He is on +1 so he is happy.
At the same time big battle for Topalov.
GM Motylev – GM Aronian 1/2
GM Carlsen – GM Anand 1/2
GM Svidler – GM Ponomariov 1/2
GM Kramnik – GM Navara 1-0
GM Radjabov – GM Tiviakov 1/2
GM Topalov – GM Shirov 1/2
GM van-Wely – GM Karjakin 0-1
Kramnik and Radja will lead.
there seems to be alot of the top people misisng at this tournament.
I’ll be going for the youngster karajkin because he’s ukrianian and I’m part ukrainian . But I wouldnt put any vegas money on him winning the whole thing. If I were a betting man it looks like Kramnik’s effortless style will probaly take the tournament with Anand being real close. I think Topalov probaly come third.

kramnik i hope wins this hole tornament he is the best player there is and he will sho why he is the world champ…as for topalov i think he is going crazy, sayin stuff like the computers and what not its just bad sportsman ship.
godd luck to magnus carlson!the future world champ!and also good luck to radjabov and karjakin!
Our Dutch pride Loek van Wely will score his first win today. He is less talented than Karjakin, but much more experienced, he has a real fighting mentality, and he must be very frustrated…
