(Almost put this on more sports board just to piss some people off 
, but ill put it here instead)
Anyways the series of matches will start Saturday. Its a huge match between a long time great chess champion Vishwanathan Anand vs a young Magnus Carlsen who was a childhood prodigy.
I will list a link below that will have the dates and times of the matches, a live twitch link that will provide live commentary, as well as the youtube site where you can, even better yet, watch the match afterwards and still see all of the commentary. If you like chess, then this guy, Jerry, is the best on youtube at giving interesting fun commentary.
LINK
As well as a short documentary on Carlsen.

Playing chess on my Android app right now. Not very good though, I'm about a 1375 rating.

Those ELO ratings are ridiculous

I willl never forget this for as long as I live
Stunning Anand victory
Anand collapses and then Kasparov makes an elemental blunder to lose the match.
Stuns me to this day, Kasparov got old

I watch ever few years. Wish I could still play like I could as a youngster.
I know I talk old days a lot ... but was anyone else around and playing back in the Fischer/Reshevsky days ... or even the Fischer/Spassky days?
The fricking golden years. Nothing like it has ever been seen before or since.
And I used to listen to that crazy fricker on HAMM not ten years ago or so. Perhaps the most brilliant man of my lifetime, but what a total dick. It always made me wonder if being that intelligent is worth it.
