Well I was going to say Magnus was going to run away with it, but he's getting beat on like a government mule this week. I hope Naka can bring it home. Would love to see an Amerian win a Supertournament. 

Yes, I agree... it would be great to see an Armenian win this supertournament. And there's a good chance that it will happen.

Real Racing 3 by any chance?

 

Wesley So has been quiet this week, will be interesting if he tries anything against Caruana, Naka or Aronian to get a win or two.

So has been doing a great job in the race for the Pacifist Award thus far. He's currently tied with Karjakin for first place, both of them with perfect 6/6 scores.

LIVE STANDINGS - PPP NORWAY CHESS 2017

Giri won once again! Aronian still on fire! And Kramnik maybe leveling the score with Magnus once again? Edit: Actually he's 2 down currently... whoops.

NewArdweaden

wtf is with Carlsen's form

Pulpofeira

Must be in love.

MSC157

Short calling Aronian 'an animal' once again, hahaha.

P.s: Vote here! (Carlsen's future)

Very nice interview with Kramnik about his game, rating and Magnus.

Right after the tournament, during the weekend, I'll start preparing forms for Paris and Leuven rapid and blitz. And make Standings spreadsheet :)

All this time we've been talking about who will eventually take the #1 spot from Carlsen - is it Caruana? So? Or an up and coming guy like Wei Yi? Well... turns out it might actually be someone (much) older than Carlsen!

FaceCrusher

Well, with youth, skill, fame, and success, comes money and women. Carlsen is blowing money, having fun, and banging hot women. His chess is faltering as a result. Can't blame him though.

MSC157

Paris and Leuven ae approaching quickly! Let's take a look what was going on 23 years ago!

NewArdweaden

Such shameless self promotion smh

macer75

12 decisive games thus far, with one more round remaining.

And we have a winner! @goldenstar2660, well done! Smile

Pulpofeira

He was trying to clean his clock, he should have played a bit more slowly I think.
