Mar-18-07    lmreith: nice one by vishy Mar-18-07    jedrus07: Wely has not enough checks :) Mar-18-07    slomarko: Radjabov has 0,5/4 Mar-18-07    yalie: great play by vishy ... i thought he was on the defensive throughout till he spurned the perpetual. great play with two knights against two bishops. Mar-18-07    Ulhumbrus: The ending between Van Wely and Kramnik could be interesting. Mar-18-07    elLocoEvans: Vishy did it again ;) Mar-18-07    percyblakeney: I wonder how seriously van Wely takes this when he avoid the last move of a perpetual with seconds left on the clock... Mar-18-07    slomarko: Van Wely is gonna lose again, why is this guy invited to these tourneys? Mar-18-07    Kangaroo: Great game by Anand ... and great game by Kramnik, and also the great game by Morozevich and Ivanchuk!!! Mar-18-07    Ulhumbrus: No, perhaps not. Kramnik just takes the b4 pawn. Mar-18-07    jedrus07: It is won for kramnik after taking by his bishop the b4 pawn. Mar-18-07    sheaf: moro managed 1 point today when he really should have got 0 or at best 0.5 Mar-18-07    Shajmaty: Next set of games? Mar-18-07    pankajdaga: I did not realize Kramnik was such a monster! Mar-18-07    dramas79: I dont get it. Why did Radjabov not play 45. dxe6 or 45.d7. Mar-18-07    pankajdaga: ,Van Wely is gonna lose again, why is this guy invited to these tourneys?> I agree. Players like Sasikiran, navara etc. would be more interesting.
