Yeah great feeling, we should be togeher on the list (titust in front of us because of 1 win), but it doesn't matter atm. Will fix it at the end if needed. Wink

I did not come across this forum before the 1st game, so missed a chance for predicting first 2 rounds.

But i think i managed to get 8 pts from 3rd alone. Smile  (if i am not wrong).

@MSC157, Have you considered my prediction?

I did. You got 5/5 pts for correct result, 0/3 for wrong number of moves & 2/2 for correct 1st move. :)

Thank you for the quick response MSC157 :)

You're welcome! Hopefully we'll see another amazing game today.

I'm pretty sure it's going to be a draw. I voted for Carlsen winning, though.

Avatar of MSC157

Fair point. If G3 was a draw, you would have better chances.

Avatar of Bhimsen123Kulkarni

Yes, We will see another exciting game today, So far, the games have been excellent, no dead draws, fighting for win, great accuracy, no blunders. Good for chess world. I am sure this game (4th round) wont go in theoretical lines, we have to see what opening Carlsen chooses and how vishy replies for it. wishing good luck for both of them.

8-2-0. Luckily there are no minus points....

B123K was correct! 1.e4 and strange Sicilian.

Avatar of NewArdweaden

I got the first move too, but unfortunately I have to hope for Carlsen to win... Again my feelings tell me that that result is very unlikely to occur.

Avatar of MSC157

What about your # of moves? Some sources even say A has a small edge. Are you at home or on/at/in college atm?

I only got 2 pts yesterday but I predicted 21-40 and d4 correctly, so shouldn't I have 5?
