| Sep-19-07 | | zanshin: Did they just draw?!? |
 |

 | | beenthere240: I love the way Leko keeps being presented with time-consuming dilemmas. |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | Eyal: 21.Qf1 was forced (21.Qe2?? Nxc3 22.bxc3 Qxa4; 21.Qb3?? Nd3). |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | Domdaniel: I think it's drawish. 20...d5 is needed, and looks about equal. 20...Nxc3 21.Rxa5 is better for white, partly because of threats on the e-file. |
|

 | | WannaBe: Arrrrrrgh!!! Draw?!?! |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | ketchuplover: Weren't Nb2 or Nxc3 better? |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | technical draw: Draw?
|

 | | norami: Take a look at the Grischuk game. Interesting position. |
|
Sep-19-07
| | beenthere240: I really can't believe that they drew. Why not wait to see how Leko spends his remaining time on a stalled attack? |
|
| Sep-19-07 | | grebenarov: that's a shame. that was a promising game |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | acirce: Drawnand lol hahahahahahahaha |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | Marmot PFL: Not that surprised, but Grischuk-Svidler has lots of play left. |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | Ulhumbrus: Perhaps Anand wants to conserve his energy for later rounds. |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | radu stancu: I guess the result makes sense. After an exchange on c3 the c column will be neutral, with no one in control, and there aren't too many other imbalances in the position. |
|
| Sep-19-07 | | Keairolas: Did Leko just say "oops, I let you equalize.", and Anand respond by saying, "Sweet, a free half-point that I don't have to work any harder for!"? |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | chancho: With each passing round, these games get more and more crucial for the competitors in this event. I think the best is yet to come. |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | Jack Kerouac: Uncorked as predicted. |
|
Sep-19-07
| | Eyal: <acirce: Drawnand lol hahahahahahahaha> Or Anandraw... |
|
| Sep-19-07 | | russep: What's wrong with 15.Bd5?? Does it have something to do with the fact that black can take on f3? |
|
Sep-19-07
 | | keypusher: <Russep> 15....Qe8 16. Qc2 Nb4, I guess. |
|
| Sep-20-07 | | BlackNightmare: peter drawko at this pace he ll win this thing hands down no doubt about it |
|
| Sep-20-07 | | ValmonUni: leko draws kramnik in 24 and anand in 21.. oh boy. |
|
Sep-20-07
| | Marmot PFL: During the game I questioned 13.Be3 and later I heard that Kasparov called it "a relic". Whenever Leko is surprised he usually chooses the most cautious moves. |
|
| Sep-20-07 | | euripides: Anand had to face this line as White in 2006, and was presumably impressed even though he won the game: Anand vs M Kazhgaleyev, 2006 |
|
| Oct-06-07 | | philosophers game: Do these people always keep drawing games like this and not fight till the end... |
