practical play
I believe this can happen at all levels: at +2700 level for example,
A Morozevich illustrates the case, +2951 Perf in Pamplona, not
too awesome in big events, Linares or WCs :/
-I think he might be easily the Most Practical Player of All Time --if that award exists--

Kasparov's last game
I quite like this one too :)

Morelia Linares 2007
Super-GM tournament of Morelia-Linares starts... with Topalov, Ivanchuk, Leko, Morozevich, Svidler, Carlsen, Anand and Aronian.
Will Topalov be affected by rumors ?
Let's see who will make the best predictions ? :)
My final standings :
1. Aronian, 2. Topalov, 3. Leko, 4. Anand, 5. Svidler, 6. Morozevich, 7. Ivanchuk, 8. Carlsen

Re:
Nicola,
Thanks for the update. Yes, this particular Morelia-Linares tourney seems to be the most interesting tourney amongst SuperGMs we have witnessed for quite some time.

kasparov
In my opinion the best kasparov certainly could win all tournaments (also Morelia-Linares 2007) without any preparation
he is the best chess player of all time
he is the game of chess! :-D

Fischer
In the same vein if Fischer comes out and plays in Linares/Morelia
he'd score 13.5/14, blowing all his opponents despite playing the same
lines he always played and revealing novelties no-one thought about
even with the help of computers...
(must be Friday, :P)

Vishy Anand
Vishy Anand now leads Morelia-Linares tournament by one full point... I thought this tournament wouldn't be his peak of form, but he's always surprising :)
Nice game Leko-Topalov, indeed... and a 84 moves draw.

Anand virtually ranked #1
After Morelia-Linares 2007 tournament, Viswanathan is virtually ranked #1 on the next FIDE rating list (2007, April). Great achievement :)
Quite funny to see the separated results of Morelia & Linares tournament, particularly performances for Alexander Morozevich (!)

Anand number one, or not...
Vishwanathan Anand was announced to be ranked #1 on the next FIDE rating list. Finally, Veselin Topalov is still ranked first on the list that was published yesterday. Protestations by the indian federation... The results of Morelia-Linares should be included in the next list to be published very soon. Quite strange mistake !? :)
