"This is not what I meant, although I fully expect these kind of replies." It isn't true. Yes, everybody goes for the money, but you won't be seeing Garry play in fide wc even though the prize money is very good. But Kamsky, Anand, Shirov (and a host of others) are not averse to clothing themselves in saintly garb, putting themselves out as "good guys" and slapping you in the face (in a "nice" way - snicker) the very next day for the money. Yet people go on how "nice" these guys are.. You know, enough is enough.
