Yue seems to have a pretty good position against Magnus after move 19.

The day is still young! Apparently now (at move 27) both Fritz and Rybka give a very slight advantage to black.

At the moment it looks like Dominguez might be a better bet.

Kamsky/Movsesian is looking rather drawish at the moment.

Carlsen seems to have serious advantage (can`t believe that Yue managed to spoil such a good position which he got from opening....). Dominguez sacrificed exchange and position seems to be very sharp and unclear.

Dominguez appears to be toast.

The Carlsen game is starting to look drawish.
