Does Karjakin even stand a real chance? It will probably be something like 3 draws MAYBE 1 win for Karjakin. Magnus is pretty decent I would say.

Also it says online it costs 15 bucks to watch the match and its in 3d. Does that mean you need 3d glasses? Or is it like first person go pros on the players heads or something?

That's the cost for the VR streaming. I don't know what equip you need for that. Something compatible with VR I guess... 
It's free on chess.com though. You can watch a live board simulation for free and also a delayed commentary of the game (at 8pm). Also, I'm sure that the entire live match will be posted on YouTube, at some point. The 2013 WC is on there. Not sure how long they have to wait to post them though.
I'm not changing my predictions, by with the way things have been going recently, Karjakin just might win.

The Russian bear is about to pull a Donald Trump upset.
And here are my picks (I've chosen when setting #CarlsenKarjakin rules):
I have no idea when the opening ceremony start (damned agon and everything connected with the organisation etc.), so I put the deadline 24 hours before the R1.
So, officially now
Prediction window is closed.
Thanks everyone for participating. You can still discuss games here etc.
It's not really betting if there's nothing to lose...
