LCC R1: Carlsen, Nakamura, Kramnik, Adams win
01.12.2012 – The 4th London Chess Classic started with a bang. Sadly for Judit Polgar, she still hasn't solved the Kramnik Theorem. Nakamura defeated Aronian, Mickey Adams beat Gawain Jones, while Magnus Carlsen came back from a near loss to Luke McShane and used his endgame magic to equal Garry Kasparov’s record 2851! Express report with postgame analysis of the stars.
