Jan-17-05		chessgames.com: Well, the Topalov-Van Wely game was a draw. We're now switching to Short-Anand already in progress... enjoy.

Jan-17-05		Knight13: Thanks, <chessgames.com> for broadcasting games!

Jan-17-05		radu stancu: Ugh, I'm afraid this is going to be a draw also...

Jan-17-05		Knight13: Grandmaster games are not won easy.

Jan-17-05		acirce: <chessgames.com> Well thanks for that ;-)

Jan-17-05		chessgames.com: Wouldn't you know it, this game is drawn too...

Jan-17-05		acirce: I would suggest Leko-Svidler if you want to make a new try

Jan-17-05		Knight13: I wish this Game is not going to be Draw because 90% of Live Games I've watched at chessgames.com ended in a draw.

Jan-17-05		radu stancu: LOL!

Jan-17-05		Shams: <chessgames.com> ernst-stefanova is a fantastic game and will not be a draw anytime soon

Jan-17-05		Knight13: Stupid Draws!

Jan-17-05		ketchuplover: grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Jan-17-05		Knight13: What's the next game going to be?

Jan-17-05		ketchuplover: Polgar Kramnik is coming down to the end

Jan-17-05		cu8sfan: OK, on we go!

Jan-17-05		Franz the Stampede: nooo, another wrong prevision!

Jan-17-05		AdrianP: Nosher will be quite happy with that, I suspect. But I think he'll be trying hard for a win against Moro tomorrow, apparently with the white pieces again.

Jan-17-05		Valiantangel: Its pretty strange that Anand played h5 in the classical caro.I have long been told that its a weak move because of the weak g5 square.The knight can land there and haress black.Perhaps that why he did not castle.Pretty interesting! i need to look into this game and others in this lighe in depth
