Cubs93: Im curious about this post. Why did you rate Kranmik over Kasparov? While Kranmik is brilliant- with a stellar career ahead of him- Garry has an overall better winning percentage (69% to Kranmiks64%) and his games with Kranmik are a virtual tie. Besides, no one, except maybe Fischer, has done more for chess that Garry. It is far too early to label Kranmik the greatest player of all time! Of course, the best comparison cannot be made until Kranmik has retired as well.
