ksr: Once the king reaches KB5 it is over.

| | Dec-12-12 Viswanathan Anand
| |
|
ksr: <The fact that Anand played so terribly against Gelfand proves that he is the weakest world champion in history.> What does the matches against Kramnik and Topalov and 2007 Mexico prove? Do you pick and choose facts to suit your theory?

ksr: <and a number of oldies hold up very well in the top 20, top 5>
None of the oldies (Anand, Ivanchuk, Gelfand) are holding up in Top 5.
Only Anand and Ivanchuk are holding up in top 10 and Gelfand is holding up in top 20. Without applying the "age" these guys are holding up in the ...

| | Dec-09-12 Magnus Carlsen
| |
|
ksr: <Spectacular player, spectacular inflation ... or a bit of both?> Inflation should positively or negatively affect all players. When one player pulls ahead of the rest of the world by at least 60 points, it can't be inflation.

And there is no guarantee that he would qualify to play the champ. Anand's next challenger could yet be another shocker. It could be any of the players.>

|
ksr: ost in space: three results?

| | May-20-12 Gelfand vs Anand, 2012
| |
|
ksr: I am happy that Gelfand won, now at least we will have enterprising chess with Anand trying to create something. Anand's black play was totally insipid just trying to neutralize Gelfand's d4 opening. I am getting the feeling that Anand camp was betting on as many comfortble draws as ...

ksr: Yes the Anand match venue should be Abbotabad , on top of Bin Laden's house. After all Anand started his WCC match at WTC, it will be fitting if he ends in Pakistan
