I was rooting for Kramnik, and the games were not a bunch of draws, they were all fighting games and will be studied for a long time. I wonder what the ratings will be now. I presume Topy will go back under 2800 now but what will Kramnik's new rating be?

Eleventy-hundred, I think. 😵

I'm glad Kramnik won too...I think his chess is a little too cautious most of the time, but at least he's not a jerk like Topalov and his manager.
