Feb-18-06		PizzatheHut: Yet another GM draw. I'm kidding of course :)

Feb-18-06		Illogic: Both players got into time trouble, especially Bacrot who I think had just a few minutes for moves 25-40.

Feb-19-06		Knight13: Ivanchuk was two pawns up(passed ones!) and dropped them and lost. sight was 41... Nd3 a bad move or a mistake?

Feb-19-06		keypusher: <knight13> Uh, it's a draw.

Feb-19-06		Ramin: yea, he totally blew it. look at the d and e pawns and ofcourse the passed h pawn. but agian this is the reason most GMs prefer bishops to the knights

Feb-19-06		Knight13: <keypusher: <knight13> Uh, it's a draw.> Embarrassed. LOL okay. Sorry for using the wrong word. ;)
