 | | keypusher: live by the sword... |
 |
| Jul-28-08 | | ajile: White pushed too hard. Should have kept the heavy pieces on and accepted a draw. |
 |
| Jul-28-08 | | Rickysan: carlsen resigns |
 |

 | | acirce: Yes! Congratulations Evgeny! |

 | | whiteshark: We all foresee a #11 after 82.c7, don't we? |
 |
| Jul-28-08 | | dteodori86: Qc4 and the game is over

 | | keypusher: I am sorry to see it, but congratulations for a great game, Alekseev! |
 |
| Jul-28-08 | | percyblakeney: Alekseev got 1.5/2 against Carlsen from positions where he seemed close to losing. |
 |
Jul-28-08
 | | Ulhumbrus: No, it looks like a win for Black. 84..Qb6+ followed by ..Rd8! keeps the White b pawn back. |
 |

 | | tpstar: <chessgames.com> Thanks for the live broadcast. =) Thrilling game, and a well earned victory for Black. |
 |

 | | boz: I guess Carlsen crossed the fine line between courage and folly. |
 |

 | | benveniste: Congratulations to both these warriors. At several points, most people would have shook hands with a draw. |
 |

 | | Geronimo: Great game. Thanks for all the commentary. Good night from Nairobi. |

 | | waustad: Seeing Carlsen on the short end in a time scramble. Wow. |
 |
| Jul-28-08 | | malthrope: Thank You <CG.com>! :))) |
 |
| Jul-28-08 | | zanshin: <kamalakanta: I believe Carlsen will lose this game. Any takers?> You were right. Do you have any ideas for the lottery numbers in Florida? ;-) |
 |
| Jul-28-08 | | cuendillar: Looks like Carlsen played for a loss and succeeded here. An unexpected way to break a long streak, wonder if he can get himself together against a self-confident Bacrot. |

 | | PinnedPiece: I'm sure Magnus is very aware of all the criticism of draws in top-level chess. He seems likely to be "aware of the crowd" as someone said earlier. And wants to be a showman, an entertainer. Hopefully this game will not make him have second thoughts about that. |
 |
Jul-28-08
 | | whiteshark: A great fight, congrats to Alekseev!
It remains exciting in Biel. |
 |
Jul-28-08
 | | Ulhumbrus: little chess partner gave the move 75 c6 instead of 75 Be3 |
 |
| Jul-28-08 | | chessamateur: With his style he's going to lose some games, even if he seems to come up on top more often than not. This was just one of those games. |
