  grolich: Nd2 would probably have been a mistake the move before... after Bd6 black's game would be great (with perhaps a small edge...perhaps). Ne1 was good though

  mckmck: Engines recommend this line Rc1-Bd6, c4-Bxc4 , Rxc4 - Rxe1+, Kh2 - Bxg3 etc.,

  Eyal: 25.Nc2, aiming for e3, looks reasonable.

  grolich: Different engines give totally different results, so with such small advantages ,I wouldn't even count on engines... just perhaps use them to find critical errors.

(I've heard on this position already 5 different opinions of engine assessment...different engines values +0.14 - +0.35. Meaning: Nothing...

Mar-03-07  hitman84: Black should try and get rid of the doubled pawns by playing c5.

  chessgames.com: <BadKnight: Is there any other site where I can see other live games?> You can try the link "official site" to the right of the board above, but not everybody has success with that link. The main server is a little stressed under the load it's receiving.

You are indeed a <Bad Knight> to think about such things. Sir.

  An Englishman: Offhand, Black's Bb5 looks like the key to the entire position, so I'm considering a plan of Ne1-c2-e3 and c3-c4. A bit long-winded, though.

Becaus I was two pawns down and my opponent had majorities on both wings.

  mckmck: <Ne1-c2-e3 and c3-c4.> Black plays the freeing move c5 and game will be equal. Nc2 - c5 , Ne3 - cxd4 ,cxd4

  Jack Kerouac: Intriging banter, but I must return to The Village for now. Be seeing you.........

  Eyal: <Nc2 - c5 , Ne3> Of course White should play d5 before Ne3, in such a case.

  BadKnight: Few days back I saw another member giving link to another site, where I could see other live games. It was not the official site. Unfortunately, I do not remember the site name. :( I actually never succeeded in watching live games from the official site.

  grolich: yeah but after Nc2 c5 d5! is, as was said, almost automatic... white still holds something.

Even if I don't believe it's enough to break Anand (or any GM, for that matter)
