1 win doesnt suddenly make them equals.  But i do hope it gets the monkey of his back for Naka.

I agree! Nakamura is the best chess player of all time!

I hate to rain on the Naka parade, but um...really?

If you had a 1-12 record against someone in decisive games, how could you NOT be forced to admit that the person in question was better than you? That's just denial!

It's like how the expansion Tampa Bay Buccaneers started out losing their first 26 games in the NFL. When they finally won one game, to go to 1-26 all-time as a franchise, do you think the NFL world collectively said, "hah! No way you can claim they're the worst team in the NFL now"?

Naka won one game. He still has a hell of a long way to go.
