I will be posting weekly previews of the upcoming Kramnik-Anand
championship match on my blog. They will consist of past encounters,
head-to-head statistics, games in PGN format, etc.

Feel free to take a look and discuss in this group.

Thanks,

All I know is that it is sometime in 2008. I don't think the time or
place have been determined yet.

I do know that Kamsky and Topalov have played each 8 times and Kamsky
has yet to win a game against him. Topalov leads 4-0-4 all time.

Topa's losses? That's easy--check his games against Kramnik.

Wow , i did not realize Gata has never won a game against him..

I would dig those 8 games out and study them + i would find some
games that Top lost and study them and find out why he lost .....

I am pulling for Gata but he will have to get his mind in the right
thinking order and belive he can win ..If he lets " doubt " creep into
is brain then he has already lost ....

This will be a real test for him now over coming the odds ...

The first posting is up on my blog. I am currently doing some
research on common opponents, but will initially discuss their head-to-
head games.

Hey maybe you can break down their style of play and maybe show a few
games from a common opponent .....Have they both played Karpove for
example ?
