I want Carlsen to win, but later in the future a long time from now I want GM Wei Yi to win.
Carlsen or Anand
Sort:
anand
Carlsen will win, but I'm rooting for Anand.
So far 1.5-1.5 match tied. I'm beginning to have doubts about Carlsen cruising to victory. Maybe like 6.5-5.5 or tiebreaks win for Magnus

Anand is very quiet and introverted and does not create excitement among the people.
remember Fischer-Spassky age and then Karpov-Kasparov age
we need new blood in chess.
tnx
I am rooting for Anand. Looking at the press conferences in the last three games, I wonder who is "introverted" and "does not create excitement" though :)

I must disagree. I think Anand has been a great ambassador for our game. Perhaps the best ever. I would call him more reserved than quite. I greatly admire his aplomb. Our hobby has been well represented by Anand.

Brilliant!
Exactly! I was just astounded at how beautifully he handled that question :)
maybe..., but i doubt it theyre both too scared to try something out of the ordinary

I'm hoping they draw all 12 games then in the tie break Anand wins the first game. A one win championship. Hilarious.

I want to see Carlsen v Nakamura 2014-15
yeah, nakamura said he was disapointed in the the current drawed games, in the championship, he said chess should be a show, something that kasparov understood, lets see him put his money where his mouth is.
Did Kasparov understand this when he had 17 straight draws against Karpov in the 1984 championship match?
Well of course those were mostly fighting draws, not easy 20 move repetetions.
After todays Berlin I expect Carlsen to win
I don't know why Anand gave Carlsen such an easy game. The Queens were off early. If Anand wants to win, he will have to keep the queens on the board. For carlsen it's the other way.
Hope Anand learn a lesson that he can't challenge Carlsen in this type of game, sooner or later, Carlsen will break Anand in such games.
I am amazed that Carlsen is very good at defending and end-game. He is one of the best end-game players besides Fischer. But his middle game is off by a mile from Fischer.
You see Fischer would have crushed Anand in end-game, and Carlsen in openings and middle game. Certainly Carlsen is nowhere near Fischer when he played Caro.

What is now wrong with the Caro-Kann? Carlsen did get a fine position out of that opening.
I predict that Carlsen will win. Next year Kramnik will win the Candidates' tournament and in 2015 also WCC title. :)
I want to see Kramnik return, or the rise of Aronian.
