Mister Pawn Crusher,
Yet, Veselin Topalov (BUL,2813) is the top FIDE rated player. around 20 more players have an international rating greater than 2700; Including, but not limited to, russians, armenian, french, english etc. There is quite a fuss recently about he top match of the latest 4 years between Topalov and another guy that has won the champion title from another association. The title should now be united. It's just like having the Oxford and Michigan degree in English.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
