    I found the video of her win over Carlsen pretty entertaining... do click on the ad! ;-)

    I'm not sure what ad you're referring to, but I believe I saw the same video.

    By the end, I was having difficulty figuring out whether storming away from the table in post-blitz frustration was, in fact, an example of genuinely poorer sportsmanship than creating a video of same that employed not less than thirty-seven slow-motion replays and several "SUPER-slow-motion" replays just to drive the point home.

    Poor Carlsen. I suppose flukes like that eventually happen in long blitz tournaments, even to the currently best player in the world.

    I know what you mean, DeepGreene.  At first I was kind of annoyed by the tone but in the end I watched the whole 8 or so minutes video.

    What impressed me is how quick Carlsen noticed his mistake.

    Couple things impressed me...he was looking around the whole game...and she won the Petrov while playing black...when he made the mistake on the "touch move" she did not say anything, just pointed.
    ...cool

    ...by the way Alexandra Kosteniuk is very beautiful.
