It was a draw, see the 1/2-1/2 below the (2700).

"In my second round of the day against GM Emil Sutovsky, I had a dilemma as to whether I should attempt to use some of my preparation for the US Championship or just play something quiet. Perhaps drawing upon my inspiration from Vancouver, I decided to play 1.g3 in the style of Duncan Suttles. Eventually the game turned into a reverse Dutch, and around move 10, I simply felt like the position was completely equal and I did not want to risk anything. I offered a draw which Emil quickly accepted and I ran back to the hotel and face planted into the pillow for a few hours."

Taken from http://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1665303 where they quote Nakamura´s blog.

Even though he was left footed he played right midfield for Celtic fc.Suki Nakamura was the best in the world at taking free kicks.Yes it would be a great game if Japan (with Nakanura in it) played Carlsen who is the best goal scorer that Norway have ever produced.It would be a great football match!

Ahhh... Hikaru.

Whenever he draws against Magnus he is in "beers on me" mood.

I thought vodka was his best friend.

With Red Bull of course Laughing

im going to speak for everyone when i say hikaru nakamura is a decent player and has come a long way since 2007( we all know what a year that was..) but will probably never be the best simply because he is not good enough. 

 

~HoldMeGently

Ouch. I would say he's more than a "decent" player, one of the best in the world.
