I'm glad to see that Kosteniuk won the match. I think she is a good representative for women's chess. I see Hou played a Sicilian Defense, which was a good choice because she had to win to prolong the match. She needed to play an aggressive opening. @ least she went down fighting.

I knew it. I'm sorry if I have to mention this: that new champ is not just a bombshell, she's a KOSTE-NUKE!
