Whats with all the predictions of KRamnik winning? His style just isn't suited to winning tournaments. That requires lots of decisive games. Kramnik is more of a match player who is happy to take draws until he sees a small mistake which he pounces on and slowly converts to a win (an excellent match strategy). That isn't to say he can't play more aggressivly, but historically he doesn't. Topalov's game is much more suited to winning a tournament like this. That said, I am going with a dark horse of either Aronian or Svidler pulling it out.
Originally posted by WulebgrNo, I meant "i" like it's pronounced in the alphabet, although that's not very accurate. According to the site I linked to, this is how the "ij" should be pronounced: "Try to pronounce AY as in the english word MAY, but replace the A sound with the sound of the short dutch vowel E..."
so vik on zay? or zhay
