Kasparov would at least draw if he'd prepare and could win, but he's out of the picture. He could lose, but that happens...he has the strength to win and so does Anand. Hydra is very strong in tactics and plays a good positional game but it's far from perfect. Adams missed a possible win and a few draws. Some tough one easy. Terry
