I kept an undated thread on last year's championship, seen here, and we had a decent enough interest that im going to try it again. It starts tomorrow morning (11/8/14) at 6 central.
The 2014 Chess Championship is actually a match up last year's championship between now champion Magnus Carlsen and Vishwanathan Anand. The games will be early in the morning so if you are an early riser the video I am about to post will show where you can watch it live. I will also post later in the day, once uploaded, Jerry's youtube analysis of each game as well as chess.coms move by move board you can click through to review it more quickly. If you want to see a brief history on the two the link to last year's thread has their biographies.

Its also worth noting that a major blunder occurred in game 2 that led to victory.

In game 11 Carlsen gets the win, which gives him the points needed to reclaim his title as World Chess Champion.

Who was the American kid who went like 7-0-1 against Magnus earlier this year? I used to be big into following the top GMs but I don't keep up with it very closely anymore.

Im not sure. Nakamura is thought to be the best American Grand Master but he always gets whooped by Carlsen. The next young gun who has been standing up to Carlsen is an Italian name Caruana.
