There was a lot of speculation whether he would overtake Kramnik or even Anand in the FIDE rankings! But during the last three rounds he took it easy and played draws. Nevertheless he ended up on the first place with a score of 7,5 out of ten and a TPR of 2869. In this installment of Your Daily Chews we will look at his seemingly effortless victory against Dutch GM Ivan Sokolov. Enjoy the video! (appr. 20. min)

  2. Hi Vladja,

    I think so.
    Carlsen is playing an interesting game against Ivanchuk.
    He has the exchange for two pawns.

    Cheers,

    Waldemar
