Mar-10-04		Benjamin Lau: It's a shame that Anand doesn't play 1. d4 more, his rapid maneuvers in this game are excellent. A nice attack down the "g" file.

Mar-11-04		vishyanand: Have you noticed something? Anand nearly always plays d4 in blitz games but e4 in classical chess games?

Feb-16-07		notyetagm: Nikolic never developed his b8-knight during the whole game! Hard to defeat Anand when you effectively spot him odds of a whole piece.

Mar-06-08		ThinkAgain: Anand's queen movements are excellent!!
