        With an attacking player as van Wely in his team, Kramnik will go for wins. Unfortunately Moro will be the first to suffer.

        A Kramnik victory will be the only decisive game in the round, although the Gelfand-Grischuk game will the be the most interesting battle.

        Kramnik has the best shot at a win today. But that is because he is a top player and Moro is bottom half more or less. Does not mean he will win. Just that the mathematical probabilities give him the best shot today.

        To find out what actually happens stay glued to the tube.

        Aronian 0-1 Anand
        Kramnik 1-0 Morozevich
        Svidler 1-0 Leko
        Gelfand 1/2 Grischuk

        That is for sure! 🙂
        (Actually, the only I have no sure is Svidler x Leko, that could be a draw)

        Cheers!

        Today i am predicting the biggest upset of this tournament. Kramnik will be going down. There will be 3 wins an done draw.

        I can’t see how Kramnik Vladimir will win without help from his precious Fritz program and all the visits to his private loo. Too bad the real world champion, Topalov Veselin is not playing here, then there would be real results not the Drawnik stuff we will have to suffer with. Look at what happens when you catch somone with restroom wires and Fritz statistics, they get to play in the WCC. Its what cheating brings these days. Too too bad. 🙁

        “Too bad the real world champion, Topalov Veselin is not playing here”
        well, Topalov actually is not playing in Mexico because he LOST the WCC Match against Kramnik, with a point stolen, just to make you remember…

        I predict a win for Vladimir.
        (Kramnik was not so drawish against Topalov, eh?)
