Originally posted by Talem16It seems to be that playing Radjabov means it's time to lose. Will he also beat Kramnik, Anand, Topalov, Aronian?

Originally posted by Talem16Yep, Topalov has taken the lead. I kind of like Topalov despite his bs in the Wch match, but I'd still rather see Radjabov win.

Everytime kajakin plays ponomariov, he always lost track , I know they were working together no long time ago but I think karjakin always plays easy against ponomariov. He show him respect.

Topalov is still in first place, but he's only half a point ahead of Svidler, Radjabov and Aronian.
The game Carlsen - von Wely ended in a stalemate. I think that's the first time I have seen a stalemate in a GM game. 🙂

I'm glad Topalov lost! Now Kramnik needs to whip him tomorrow and catch the leaders.
