Re: Chess Championship
"14 games is very short for a World Championship match. Because the match is so short, I think Kramnik will play defensively. He'll play not to lose, especially with the black pieces. As a result, it's very unlikely Leko will win the match. He may not even win a single game. I'd say Leko has at best a 20% chance of winning the match."
Kramnik did a helluva job playing defensively against Kasparov; hard to imagine he'll have even that much trouble playing defensively against Leko. But hey, what do I know about Leko.
