My Best List

Maybe that was my best picture, but I was actually talking about the world's best players.  Without taking ratings into account (why would I do that?) here is my top 10 list (as of... right now!)

1 Carlsen

2 Aronian

3 Kramnik

4 Anand

5 Radjabov

6 Karjakin

7 Grischuk

8 Ivanchuk

9 Svidler

10 Caruana

That list would have looked a lot different 3 months ago!

Ok, I await people complaining I left off Morozevich, Mamedyarov, Topalov, and Gelfand (and who else?).

Whilst you are fuming about my list, have a look at the puzzle! A famous study by Sam Loyd.

    Where is GM Viswanathan Anand?

    I think Ivanchuk in form is a top5. And I guess that Svidler believes that Morozevich is better than him.

    Hikaru would have been somewhere between 6-10 a few months ago. Now, maybe 11-12?

    Kamsky not top 10.

    You forgot Kamsky although he's probably around 15th-20th.  Hikaru would be flattered by the non-mention. Innocent

    Brilliant! I always assumed rP + B of opp queening square color is a draw!
