    I think Kramnik is getting old, though he got more experience and probably better nerves so he's got better chances in blitz and he's the only one ever to defeat Garry Kasparov in a match .. but I'm all for Topalov, he also has the highest raiting now

    Didn't these two get into a row regarding bathroom rights or something ???
    Topalov accusing Kramnik of using the loo once too often :D

    And Michael, I remember Topalov beat Kasparov in Kasparov's last game in chess , rite :)

    yeah the bathroom gate thing was funny :p
    That costed Kramnik one point, he refused to play the 5th game before the issue was resolved ..

    yeah Topalov beat Kasparov, but that was just one game and frankly he just got lucky in that one - it's not like winning a match :D

    Hmm...I'd have liked to see Vishy Anand play blitz :) He is one the best exponents of rapid chess.
    And Michael, fancy a game @ Yahoo some time :D

    That's exactly what I was going to ask. I don't really keep up with chess, but I had heard about "the bathroom scandal" :)
