Anand-Carlsen world chess championship (Official thread)

Post your opinions and comments here.

What makes this official?

We! :-)

Just that we want to have single thread for discussions on this topic.

We have already have single threads that we can talk about it.

Will he enforce it by spamming the others?

Anand will win.. he is not under pressure this time..

???

Anand can surprise so he definitely has some good chances. He would need a lot of preparation though and make sure that he takes lead early. Carlsen is on the other hand is a brutal opponent. He is not going to give Vishy many opportunities. My favourite is Vishy (revenge!!).

Anand in better form, but Carlsen less nerves.

Result unchanged, Carlsen 3-0.

If you want to make it the official thread, please add some usefull info in the OP. Like the players profile, info about the location where it is held, dates and such. When the tournament is starting, then edit in usefull links to the site, livestream, etc.

I think so too..

It is going to be played on an oil rig in Norway

Will Kramnik be Anand's second this time?

I expect Carlsen to win, but I'm rooting for Vishy. Carlsen has his whole life ahead of him... he'll get lots more shots at the WCC. Vishy is no longer a youngster, and this might be his last good chance at regaining the crown.

Let us start discussing pros ani cons of both players..
