A professional chess player? Rated in the top 100 FIDE? Damn.
I'm a fan of chess too. Currently i'm making exercises in the "Chess: 5334 Problems, Combinations and Games by László Polgár".
I'm on the 2k exercise already..
Very nice book actually! Smiley

Well, if you could reveal your identity would be nice!

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.

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

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.

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.

Of course, I was talking about the popular options.  Tongue

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

1) e5: 3 votes (dre1982, hermesesus, jjacob)

It has to be e5 or c5, right?  Tongue
There's plenty of other moves. c6, Nf6, d6, b6, g6, etc.

I vote e5, though. Smiley

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 Cheesy
