Kamsky - Short: FLAME WAR.

Your hero worship is interfering with your judgement. If you want to talk about invincible, talk about Kramnik's run of 86 unbeaten games at the highest level.

Great post, Tommy.

Was Nigel Short the guy who also got beat up earlier this year when some guy was hitting on his fancy (some smokin' hot chess broad) ?

Cheers.

Nah, that was Danny "Medication + Alcohol" Gormally versus Lev "Armenian Army" Aronian. Nigel Short was the guy who Kasparov molested in 1993. In a chess World Championship sense.
