  acirce: Eljanov-Anand another Anti-Moscow gambit where I guess Vishy made use of some leftover preparation.

1. d4 d5 2. c4 c6 3. Nf3 Nf6 4. Nc3 e6 5. Bg5 h6 6. Bh4 dxc4 7. e4 g5 8. Bg3 b5 9. Be2 Bb7 10. O-O Nbd7 11. Ne5 Bg7 12. Nxd7 Nxd7 13. Bd6 a6 14. Bh5 Bf8 15.

Oct-08-07  darth pawn: isn't it supposed to be Vishy vs Pono today?
D.P.
Oct-08-07  hovik2003: Pono-Chucky
b7 pawn is poisonous. Any way position is leveled. Ivanchuck got his pawn back.

  acirce: <isn't it supposed to be Vishy vs Pono today? D.P.> No, Ponomariov plays against Ivanchuk. I suppose his position is tenable but he is running short of time. 18.g3 Nxc5 19.Bh3 Rfd8 20.Qc4 Bf6 21.Rhc1 b6 22.Rc2 played.

  virginmind: there definitely gotta be something wrong with the transmission of moves in carlsen's game. at least on playchess.server.
Oct-08-07  hovik2003: Linex Magic doing real good, in all six boards they are either better or equal. Kamsky as black is OK against Moro.
Oct-08-07  Gegga: On the official site too. Or perhaps Magnus is having a bad day. He is down a queen. And has moved his king 3 times in 10 moves :-) But he might be winning on time...
Oct-08-07  hovik2003: Live Broadcast on this site is real funny, sutovsky-Carlsen game is like 4 years old kids shuffling the pieces. Hey people see it but don't believe it!
Oct-08-07  gmgomes: Draw agreed in Pono x (super) Chucky.
Oct-08-07  hovik2003: Pono - Chucky is draw, today we didn't see any exciting games so far.

Bologan-Cheparinov was pretty exciting, no?

Black should be easily winning here.

Oct-08-07  borkoto: Finally Bologan decided he had enough....

  Rolfo: <acirce> do you understand the Carlsen game?
Oct-08-07  hovik2003: I was wrong it was easy win for black. Carlsen game is funniest of all, some thing is wrong with the site.
Oct-08-07  borkoto: I guess Cheparinov will be hitting easily 2700+ over the next few months
Oct-08-07  hovik2003: Akopian-Tregubov is pretty exciting too. akopian has four pawn for a minor piece.

  dx9293: Ponomariov-Ivanchuk was drawn in 31.

  PhilFeeley: Where did Bologan go wrong?
Oct-08-07  chessmoron: Carlsen may haven been poisoned. Carlsen is losing.

Anyone watching Cramling vs Hou Yifan. The kid is amazing.

Oct-08-07  Mameluk: Rybka recommended taking a piece and get perpetualed for Morozevich, but that would not be Moro.

  suenteus po 147: Somebody must be messing with us. There's no way that Sutovsky-Carlsen is a real game.
Oct-08-07  Pulse: LOL...Apparently Mamedyarov played 16. Rf1 (instead of castling) against Alekseev and offered a draw. Alekseev of course accepted. :)
Oct-08-07  chessmoron: -----

Hasta la vista for Anand's 2801. 2 draws cost him -4.2 =2797

Ivanchuk 2.4 =2789
