Dominguez beat Kash,has the lead. Caruana blew a 2 pawn up same colored B's ending vs Naka,could only draw.

I thought Topalov had good chances at the end vs. Morozevich yesterday.

What is the lineup there? I don't hear Kramnik or Magnus or Anand in that bunch. I would assume Carlsen and Anand are busy preparing for their own encounter but what about Kramnik?

Nope,Kramnik is not in this event. Caruana is in first with 5/7,with 2 rds. to go. Ivanchuk has totally lost his mojo,played a silly 13 move draw. Chucky needs to step back and take a break,he has been playing awfully in recent weeks.

There are 4 rounds left apparently. Kamsky is tied for first currently.
