Kibitzer's Corner
May-06-02  bishop: How difficult it must be to defeat Anand when all he wants to do is draw!
Nov-29-02  centercounter: Anand is very sound and always very well prepared. He is not given to risk taking (although he has that skill also). Anand's mastery of practical play and his excellent preparation has allowed him to remain among the top 5 players for many years.
