1) e5: 3 votes (dre1982, hermesesus, jjacob) It has to be e5 or c5, right?  There's plenty of other moves. c6, Nf6, d6, b6, g6, etc. I vote e5, though.  Indeed. e5: Open Game c5: Sicilian Defence e6: French Defence c6: Caro–Kann Defence Nf6: Alekhine's Defence d6: Pirc Defence g6: Modern Defense d5: Scandinavian Defense Nc6: Nimzowitsch Defence Thanks Wikipedia  |

GM OP.
Who do you think will be the next competitor against Carlsen. Who is the one who make a chance?
Few years ago he was absolutely number one but the last time he isn't in that good shape.

Of course, I was talking about the popular options. The French defense, among those, is also popular, though to a lesser extent to master-level games. chess.com shows this: 1...c5 318,043 1...e5 149,775 1...e6 90,544 (number of games) |

Everyone participating will have a chance to win the 2016 Candidates Tournament. Naturally if I am participating I would never name another person as being most likely to win. I can neither confirm nor deny my participation but will plan to do so (if I am participating) before the tournament begins. If I am participating and if I win I will attempt to find some bitcoin friendly sponsors for the World Championship Match. It is no secret that Carlsen will be a favorite over anyone he faces. |

We can play Nc6 or Nf6 (Petrov's Defence).
I prefer Nc6

Nf6 is more of a drawish opening, but let's go with Nc6.
Most likely he will play the Ruy Lopez. We need to decide which line we want in that - if we screw up the moves, he'll retain a huge advantage.
