  • "Either I'm going crazy or it's him... and after a few seconds thought, I realized it was him"

    Classic line from Kramnik!

  • "This is precisely the moment where he had to pay his bills" - I love it. You can tell Kramnik is having a good time talking about how he whipped that jackass Topalov.

  • @Velio86 I sort of agree with that line,"jackass topalov". He's undoubtedly a great attacking and aggressive player. But, at times he gets really arrogant and there were times when he and danilov have resorted to cheap tricks to gain upper hand over the opponent. Arrogance is the downfall of any player.

  • @Velio86 Topalov is retarded.

  • Kramnik played a 16-game match against kasparov for the world title in 2008 and trailing 2-0 kasparov threw in the towel after game 15. He'd underestimated kramnik. As white, kramnik avoided gary's infamous sicilians and played 1.d4 instead of 1.e4. And then he'd prepared a venomous variation of the "bayonet attack" against gary's King's indian defence. Against gary's 1.e4, e5! and into boring petroff defence etc was the plan. Kramnik was super- prepared opening-wise. An awesome performance!

  • @md65000 "that jackass Topalov" ? Hahaha, ur a clown, my low IQ friend.

  • Kramnik is a great player, we can lear a lot from him. He said that he knew, by his preparation, that Topalov didn't defend inferior endgames... things like that made a champion...

  • @md65000 why would you call Topalov a jackass? Hes a great and dynamic player.

  • @igoregin2 You should learn to type correctly first.

  • Haha this man is a genius!

  • @md65000 Well said sir.

  • @igoregin2 But he's not English. If that was an attempt at a joke, I don't get it........
