Delusional fan boy pablum.
Also since this is a thread titled "Amber Blindfold and Rapid Chess Tournament" I clicked on it thinking id find something relevant to that. Maybe start a new thread debating the fine points of being a fan boy somewhere else?

You are entitled to your opinion. I have a preference for Kramnik, but I am even handed with all players. Anand has just just been Anand. However, he he is #1 right now due to Topalov comming back to earth, Anad has not done anything special.

Petrosianic, These are not the results. Combined, Carlsen and Leko are tied 8-9, and Radjabov is 10th, 1 1/2 points behind them.

Yeah, I threw this together quickly on the way out the door, and made a couple of goofs. I'll redo it. Main news is that both Kramnik and Anand drew their games today, leaving the top spots unchanged.

So Kramnik clearly won in the end. Maybe he's got over his illness now.
