hilarious excerpt from Kramnik's NIC article


""Topalov and Ponomariov shared 3rd place with +1, but they arrived at this result in different ways. WCelin began sluggishly, but, as usual, he ran into form towards the end, winning two successive games in rounds 6 and 7. He was clearly in the mood to continue his victorious sequence, but at that very moment the tournament suddenly ended." (2009 #7 p. 106)

The annotations to the ...c6 Catalan are delightfully snotty, too.

Topalov gets to take his own potshots in "Just Checking."
