Nakamura rocks.
Prediction: Carlsen, with the black pieces, defeats Nakamura in the final round to take the event.
Topalov will win this one!
Just about everybody -except Naka of course- can win it
Aronian will win it
For Anand as WM it`s a shame to draw all games and not even trying to win one
Cheer up Naka, you can`t win èm all, not even one!? Somebody has to be last!!
There`s always Poker left for you
I don't even know why Gelfand qualified for the World Title match against Anand?
