I am pretty sure about that as well. I also just saw a pawn promotion with check, I only noticed the comment later

Here are the 2 games. Adams is a pawn up but somehow cant manage to beat down Kamsky's defense:

And here the Toppy game. Particularly the piece sac looked good and the ensuing endgame was very nice, but according to CB black's 38th was a blunder.

Congratulation for a solid +1 performance!! 

Has Topolov forgotten to take his blindfold off 

I can't see Topalov winning after round 1 - what on earth was he doing during the last 20 moves?

Mamedyarov looks in reasonable shape but Kamsky's play looked a bit provocative to  say the least.

Adams won't win- he never does and he never will but he'll have his ususal solid tournament.

Nisipeanau is interesting as he is very creative and if he gets it right- good start for him

Kamsky needs some opening prep, although like Adams he might be holding some back for the candidates.

Sasikiran just isn't strong enough to win this tourney- he'll do well to avoid last place.

Mamedyarov is my tip, although if Topalov gets his act together it will be a walkover. No Anand which is a shame.

You do wonder whether it's coincidence that all the strongest players bar one have decided they've better things to do: I know the Candidates and Mexico are coming close, but I wonder whether that's the only factor. And whether Topalov's gang are entirely wise to be handing out signed copies of the magnificent Bulgarian book on the Elista match, and conducting ritual interviews for the tournament website on which participants are required to mouth disapproval of FIDE's decision to 'ban' Topalov from Mexico, is a moot point.
