FAST simul.

Magnus has been following the World Championship closely and his favourites to win the title were clearly Kramnik and Anand.
Magnus has of course been very impressed by Anand's performance and his opening preparation has been fantastic. He is also impressed by Gelfand who could easily have added another win or two based on his positions.

After school today Magnus visited his main sponsor FAST Search & Transfer.
See article http://blog.magnuschess.com/1182505928_fast_search__transfer.html 
FAST has an impressive chess community headed by GM Djurhuus, and more than 30 people had gathered for pizza and to hear Magnus present two of his most important wins this year (against Ivantchuk and Radjabov) and make a 20-board simultaneous display.

In a friendly and nice environment Magnus in the end won 19 games and drew a worse ending against Djurhuus.  

After more than one month at home attending school Magnus will have a bussy 4th quarter starting with the ECC in Turkey next week.

I'm sure Henrik will update it when he feels like it, not necessarily when your chessclub wants him to.

Dear Theo,
sorry to disappoint you.
I have been bussy with a mountain hut project lately while Magnus has been playing in the ECC.
Magnus is travelling to Bilbao on Sunday and I will join him and promise regular updates!
