Nakamura has lost only one game in the Tal Memorial November 16-25 in Moscow, Russia, to World Cup Champion Peter Svidler and drawn all the rest. Can he chalk up a W? In the remaining three games, Nakamura faces World #1 Magnus Carlsen, World Champion Viswanathan Anand and GM Vassily Ivanchuk.

Watch remaining Tal Memorial games on the Internet Chess Club, the official site and find more details on TWIC.
 
Nakamura fans will get a chance to see him compete against the World elite again at the London Chess Classic (December 3-12). In 2012, he will defend his title at the Tata Steel Chess "A" group in Wijk Aan Zee (January 13-29), where US Champion Gata Kamsky will also participate.
