I find that Topalov has some uncommon bulges on his ear lobes.needs to be checked.
Honestly its really difficult to predict in such an even group. Anything can happen. though Anand losing will be the most unpredictable outcome for almost all the rounds but definitely today.
anand eventhough I like Magnus. He’s cute.

Topalov has installed Fritz in his left earlobe and Rybka in his right earlobe.
This is the making of “Earlobe gate”…
Stay tuned, true believers.
WCM Claudia Munoz, pay attention to chess, not the boys!
After you have GM, then you can see the boys!
Their website is horrible.
topalov will humiliate aronian
Topalov will beat Aronian like Birthday piniada.:)
how to follow games ?
I’m a little worried about Magnus – he’s also been playing in German chess league shortly after Corus. Shouldn’t he rest a bit more?
Topalov-Aronian 1/2
Shirov-Anand 1/0
Carlsen-Ivanchuk 1/0
Leko-Radjabov 1/2
What time do the games start Eastern U.S. time? and where do you follow live games?
Prediction: All Draws
Carslen-Ivanchuk and Topalov-Aronian will be hard fought. The other two will be less than 30 moves.
I hope I’m wrong. 🙂

Here are my predictions:
1. Anand (Mr Draw) – Will draw at least one game with everyone…even his hotel housekeeper.
2. Topalov is going to crush Radjabov in an amazing way as a revenge for his lost to him at Corus. But after that, all his other games will be lame and he will end up in the middle sections.
3. Carlsen, Radjabov, Aronian, and Ivanchuck will play the best games of the tournament (except for Topalov’s crushing of Radjabov). Besides, since Anand (Mr Draw), Topalov, Leko, and Shirov are VIP members of the DRAW club….who cares about their games.
The Morelia Linares 2008 doesn’t have an official web-site to follow the games live?????????
here another one

Go Kramnik!
any update on anand-shirov game of lineras 2008 round 1?
This is a rotten official webpage again.
Fischer was right in Sousse/ Tunesia 1967: Most people cannot organize a chess tournament properly.

FINALLY !!!
LIVE Games are up now on:

A draw for the cute one! 😉
Oh! And did you notice the mirror image of both names when the wondergirl meets the wunderkind?!
C.M. – M.C.
Well, I guess it will be another draw… but on such a fierce battle that we all will stare in awe!!! 🙂
Yes! A game without a flaw…

CUPID!! that was cute!! i guess you are right. i still havent met any cute guys in the under 10 categories. They are in the 14 and up. But even the GM’s ive met they arent all that cute. maybe i should try basketball.

CM: Have you seen the big zit on M.C’s nose?
Most male GM’s look like “Lurch” from the Addams family or Boris Karloff having a bad hair day.
Marry a nice banker or accountant. Chances are they will not be crazy and will always have money for you to $pend!
