Tomorrow the strongest chess tournament of this year starts,
there will be live coverage of the games and among the contesters are
Anand, Kramnik, Topalov, Aronian, Carlsen,
I will sure follow the games online.
The B and C group are also very strong and full of young grandmasters

Im rooting for Anand as well and in the B group Bologan or Yakovenko
Im looking forward to see if the young guys Carlsen, Karjakin and Navara can stand their ground ( I truly hope so, im Karjakin his biggest fan since we were on the same airplane last year from Greece to Vienna)

I'm hoping Carlsen can pull off at least a decent performance - if he doesn't it might be a little disappointing. Seems like everybody's waiting on him to prove himself.
I asked him at the airport: "are you car jackin? (karjakin) and he replied yes, later on I found out that we were on the same plane but not sittin very close to him:'(My gf talked to his mother though, tatiana or tanyas I think, she was very nice,
Karjakin was a typical 14 year old, very shy
