Everyone fighting for position Karjakin will win on tiebreaks if he is drawn with Caruana so Caruana is forced to try to overtake Karjakin on points and might be forced try to win the last game, Anand also in the chase and everyone on 6 points trying to climb into 2nd or 3rd position. There will hopefully be a lot of decisive games in the last two rounds!!
Your interesting post would be so much more understandable if you clarified, that you talk about the tournament in Moscow taking place right now.
"The 2016 Candidates Tournament is an 8-player event to decide the challenger who will play a World Championship match against Magnus Carlsen in November 2016. The 14-round double round-robin runs from 11-28 March in the Central Telegraph building in Moscow and features a prize fund in excess of $450,000."

Run along little fishy everyone here knows what the candidates is!
Candidates Tournament ? Never heard about it.
Yes, now everyone do know the context of #1. Even despite tha lack of the interpunction marks, you made at least one more little fishy interested in the tournament.
Indeed!
I'm going to need a full report, I'm still not fully convinced of the existence of this "candidates" tournament. 10 pages, at least 50 citations, on my desk by Monday, and don't skimp on tha interpunction marks. This is important. Thanks.
I agree, manglecopter, and all eyes will be on Caruana tomorrow! Of the top trio, with Karjakin and Anand, Caruana probably would be the toughest adversary for Magnus :)
I want to see Caruana play Magnus, hope he beats Svidler tommorrow
I'd be very happy if Karjakin or Caruana won. It would be depressing if Anand won. Also wouldn't be too happy on the off chance that Levon or Svidler somehow ended up winning, don't think they'd do well against Magnus judging by there recent form. But Karjakin or Caruana would definitely make an exciting and tense championship match which it feels like haven't had in a while!
