So it's official, Anand and Kramnik will play a 12-game match in Germany in October 2008! This is going to be one kick-ass match :)

Kramnik is currently exercising to increase his bladder size to head off any further controversy.

12 games just doesn't seem like enough.

This is going to be a tough battle, but I think that Kramnik will be able to win easily. Maybe we'll get a preview at Corus...

lol @ lep... yeah he needs to control his bladder activity.

drunknknite: agreed, not sure why they would make it 12 games only. But I'm hoping for some fighting chess.

12 games? That's it?

Need more chess. Need it NOW.

wang: I hope so! I'm rooting for Anand, he's the most likeable guy out of the super GM's, and I find his games pretty exciting.

Petey: yeah, October! But there are plenty other tournaments until then to give you your chess fix :)

Come on, be men! At least a 24 game match! Geez, 12 game match, Kramnik will pull his crap, bore Anand into losing 1 game, then the rest draws... What's wrong with 24 games??? 12 is way way way too short.
