Mar-05-07		csmath: Just heads up for another brilliant Anand's attack, surprisingly so without any kibitzing.

Mar-06-07		yalie: thanks for bringing this game to my attention csmath .. 35.nf5 is beautiful

Mar-10-07		dramas79: fantastic. If 45.. Qd6+, then 46.g3+ winning.

Apr-28-07		anandrulez: cool game from vishy here

Oct-05-07		dabearsrock1010: this is one of my favorite games the lack of attention is surprising, it should be a game of the day.

Oct-05-07		dabearsrock1010: so many great moves...even the subtle 30. c4 to prevent queen trade...oh i love it so much

Jun-16-11		sevenseaman: 28. Nhf5, and no comments on it. How does one unscramble the import of such a move? The sac points to a breakout on d6 is one. Looks impossible to even comprehend such brilliance, let alone conceive.
