WMD: Here's GM Ian Rogers on 61.Kh3: 'The sealed move. As both players analysed with their seconds they began to realise just how hopeless Black's position was. (White can target both the a-pawn and the d-pawn).'When Kramnik finally retired for the night at 3.00am he had decided that he would probably resign the game without play. However his seconds, Lautier and Danelian, kept analysing through the night and when they woke him at 11.00am they told him to continue play. They had found one trick, just one, which Gelfand might just fall for...'
66...Qc8 'Kramnik took 38 minutes over this move - a brilliant psychological ploy to lure Gelfand into a feeling of over-confidence. Black is doomed to passive defence and will soon resign, Gelfand must have thought as he played...67.Re7?.'
67...Qc1!! 'A stalemate trick from nowhere! - if 68.Qxd8 Qh1+ 69.Kg3 Qh2+! draws. To make matters worse for Gelfand, the obvious 68.Rxg7+ Kxg7 69.Qxd8 gives Black an unlikely perpetual check with 69...Qh1+ 70.Kg3 Qg1+ 71.Kf4 Qc1+! 72.Ke4 Qc6+ 73.Kd3!? Qxf3+ (73...Qb5+ 74.Ke3 Qb3+ 75.Kf4 wins) 74.Kd2 Qg2+! 75.Kc3 Qc6+, etc.'
