FIDE Knockout

In case you haven't been following the FIDE World Cub that is currently under way in Russia, well, it's under way! Two of my favorite American players are playing, Gata Kamsky and Hikaru Nakamura. I'm hoping that Gata does well. He's been out of the chess scene for a number of years, having once been one of the top players in the world. Hikaru, the young wonderkid from New York, was knocked out in the first round. Anyway, I won't go into details, if you're interested you can check it out at http://www.chessbase.com. They have regular updates on the status of the event.
