Kramnik is a better match player- at least that's what I read on all the chess blogs. Kramnik beat kasparov in a match, kasparov smoked anand with the sicilian dragon. Either way though, it will be our version of the super bowl- I wish it were televised. We have to come home and play through all the games at night and smoke cigarettes and delve into the adjourned positions. It's going to go on for a month at least. I disagree.
