The upset here has to be the standard CM9K setting with 4 wins and 5 losses. Although it is only 10 games and these are 5 0 games. I do think it is appropriate that the top 4 are Karpov, Korchnoi, Spassky and Fischer - all of them world champions or in Korchnoi's case - good enough to be a world champion. The Waitskin standing is interesting only in the sense that Josh plays such an important part in the Chessmaster series - it is only fitting that his namesake here does well. And how about Queenie popping into the top half of the field?. I am very pleased with the Crafty 17.16 SE standing - achieving just under 40% here thus far.
