greenknight: theres games at 4pm CET
Skylark: i'm looking forward to a follow up of topalov's creative and entertaining performance yesterday
Skylark: after a wild first 40 moves they reached a somehow equal position by time control and then topalov won anyway!?
greenknight: as i said yesterday, topalov played the game like tal and grischuk played the clock like... grischuk
Skylark: haha a good analogy there
Skylark: I didn't expect topalov to be able to convert that q + b vs q + n ending, but he played it very skilfully.
Skylark: unfortunately I got to 6 am, well past my bedtime, and decided i would view the results the next morning (er... afternoon)
ULTRAMODERNIST: e4?
greenknight: where are you watching from, australia?
mannboobz: Does anyone know if Topalov will surpass Carlsen with a win today?

Skylark: yeah, east coast australia
ULTRAMODERNIST: e5=?
greenknight: i hope the other games will see winners though to make it more competitive
Skylark: it's 1 am now..
Skylark: i think given vallejo's unfortunate loss last round we may see another topa victory
greenknight: everyone gets into time trouble here except topa and aronian
greenknight: going to the room
Scarblac: topalov passes carlsen as #1 on the live list
mannboobz: Waiting for Norway to update its live ratings list.
