      Kramnik to miss Dortmund?

      ChessBase, Dortmund, Kramnik


      Our friends from ChessBase just reported that Kramnik has fallen ill and he may miss Dortmund.

      When asked about his participation in the Super-GM tournament in Dortmund Kramnik’s manager informed us that the situation was unclear. In his current condition playing serious chess games was out of the question. However a recovery in time for the start of the tournament on Saturday is still in the books. The next 48 hours will bring clarity. Kramnik will have to miss the press conference on Thursday and would, health permitting, arrive in Dortmund on Friday, in time for round one on Saturday at 3 p.m.

      Stay tune for the latest news.

      Here is the official website.

        Well, Topalov has weak ethics, Kramnik has weak health. So, neither one of them is perfect.

        Hi,
        we can say nothing about K. health and T. ethics :-). No one were on the place.

        K. is hidding himself as always, toilette warrior ;-).
        He was not able to play the rematch vs T. why he will play in Dortmund.
        It will be inconsequence, he has to prepare himself for Mexico or will he miss it either having guarantie for the match for the title if he would not win in Mexico ?

        Pony :

        You’re not able to think properly
        You’re not able to write decently
        But you’re quite capable of writing
        lines that might indicate there’s
        a talented humanoid at work.
        So : congratulations !
        As a humanoid, imitating bits of human language, do you actually understand yourself what you’re trying to say ?
        Sure, you have emotions, as all living creatures have, but yours are somewhat limited to distrust and hatred of Kramnik and Russians in general.
        Nevertheless, in life, you have to do what you’re good at.
        So : keep up the good work !

        For someone who can’t say anything, you say too much. And none of it coherent. Let us agree that you hate Kramnik for reasons you can’t explain, and it makes you look very silly, but at least you’re sensible enough to say it anonymously.

        Fred, it is not true that I hate K.
        I do not care about K.
        I do not like hypocracy, thats all.
        That what he has shown in Elista, the way of psychologic war…
        The wolf in the sheep skin.

        Steven, think first and hold your emotions. If you will be able to do
        that then you will be able to demand that from other similar creatures.

        Regards
        Pony.
