        I think Grischuk is the favourite. His stategy is clear, draw all standard time control games and win in rapid and blitz. It’s logical as he’s a great blitz player, but seems at odds with the event. So, if Grischuk faces Anand, will he try the same strategy? Why not just play in the blitz WC? I don’t like his approach, but it is working for him.

        It doesn’t really matter. On the evidence so far, Anand will destroy either challenger.

        I think Grischuk. He is a better chess player and more handsome. Gelfand is old gizzer. I want to see more of Grischuk. He is sweet looking in a suit.
