I have the honor of inviting to all to follow the tournament of my little city:
http://www.advancedchessleon.com/
(better open the link with Internet Explorer)

Here i copy a few of the presentation:

LEON JUNE 9th to JUNE 13th 2005.

VISHY ANAND, former World Champion, and 2nd player in the world.
ALEXEI SHIROV, former Vice World Champion.
RUSTAM KASIMDZHANOV, current World Champion.
And the Norwegian young star MAGNUS CARLSEN, already mentioned as a future World Champion, are the participants of the 18th “Magistral Ciudad de Leon�.

The strong, and still young! field promises hard fight in an exciting new modality, the games could be followed by several audio visual ways, and enjoy the live comments of Grandmasters Miguel Illescas and Felix Izeta who will provide entertaining and highly technical comments helped by powerful computers.

This year the tournament will have more emotion, it will be very fast, only 20 minutes plus 10 seconds after each move for al the game. A tiebreak with blitz games of 5 minutes will be played in case of a tie.


Who will win?
Bets are admitted.

You win. In the final, between Anand and Carlsen, the first one won without problems.
(my favourite was Shirov. Always he fell me very well :-/ )
