Tibetan monks have gone back to chanting "Om" after experimenting with the mantra "Kramnik" and finding out that it is indeed possible to be too enlightened.

WTH, didn't Grischuk read any of these posts?  The nerve of the guy!

Kramnik once made a thread so funny, he didn't even have to put (humour) in the title and people laughed.

What Kramnik game doesn't end in draw? :P

 Most of the oppoents Kramnik faces aren't easy, their super-easy. So easy that he can play them in his sleep, and still pull of an easy draw.

Yes, and I guess Vladimir forgot to read this thread in the morning before the games. Otherwise he would have qualified easily.

Grischuk won the match, but Kramnik won the post mortem

#1542 The only reason Kramnik isn't a GMU (Grandmaster of the Universe) is to give the illusion that he needs to put any effort into winning matches.

#1543 FIDE once decided that Kramnik should have a fixed rating at all times for if he was allowed to posses his true rating they would be forced to either use infinity or shift everyone elses down to the negative numbers to correctly display the disparity.

It is a testament to Kramnik's extraordinary chess ability that he could only be beaten in match play by the paradoxical "draw with white" strategy, which has confused every chess player in the world except for Kramnik, who wondered why he hadn't thought of it first.

Kramnik can move so fast, you never actually see him move a piece...you just see his hand leaving the piece after moving.

Kramnik is so good now, that the organizers at Kazan didn't even have to put Rybka in the bathroom for him! And now look how good he is!

Am I doing this right?

Kramnik has a team of astronomers that follow him around because the positions he gets are so large they can be seen in space.

The ultimate rhetorical question: can Kramnik find a move so strong, that he himself can't find a defense?


I love answering rhetorical questions.

Yes he can. Actual Kramnik is known to play against himself on occasion. In the 1on1 games against himself he currently has a 80% score. He never lost a single game
