| beenthere240: That was a drawing sequence from MC, who must have decided he had no winning chances. No one was nothing now. |

| AdrianP: If Rc3 ...Bd8-c7-d6-Ra8-Rf8# (of course, White gets a few moves as well, but you see the drift...!). |

| Eyal: <whatthefat: Was 34.Bg5 Rc7 35.Qd8 actually winning for White?>
Yes, but 34...Rc7 is a blunder; as sp147 pointed out, 34...Be8 (attacking c5) is a much better idea. |

| AdrianP: Ha! <Keypusher> We share the same optimism... |

| keypusher: <AdrianP> Sorry, I deleted mine, since you had it covered. :-) |

 |
| beenthere240: Black can spend the last moves before time control eliminating white's queenside pawns. |
 |
Nov-06-09
 |
| beenthere240: 39...Rd3 offering a repetition draw? |

| keypusher: But it was a very fine and interesting draw. Not quite as good as yesterday, but good nonetheless. Thanks cg.com! |

| Eyal: <mal> The way things are going, it might even be the decisive game of the whole tournament (as in 13th Unive Tournament (2009))! |

| botvinnik64: What happened in the rest of the game? The Russian site isn't very helpful. |

| malthrope: <Eyal: <mal> The way things are going, it might even be the decisive game of the whole tournament (as in 13th Unive Tournament (2009))!> ~lol~ Well, I sure hope not... o-O
This is, after all, the <"Tal Memorial"> and Kramnik doesn't have his usual 5 Whites! ;) I'm sensing a dynamic decisive breakthrough shortly ('fingers crossed'). :P |

| A Karpov Fan: The Nimzo is such a great defense, maybe Carlsen should just avoid it in future :-) |

| Open Defence: <Thrajin: <Open Defence>, refresh my memory. Didn't Carlsen train with Anand for awhile (before Anand's match with Kramnik)? Are you suggesting the Gruenfeld duel would be interesting because they have probably explored its lines together in training?> well Gary played the Grunfeld against Karpov and also commented that he was saving some prep for Carlsen, and Anand seems to have something new to say in the Grunfeld too so it would be a great theoretical duel not to mention adding Gary's assistance for the prep to the equation |

| KamikazeAttack: <The Nimzo is such a great defense, maybe Carlsen should just avoid it in future :-)> Nah, it is back to the drawing board to find a way to that particular line. What are computers for? |

| shintaro go: Black's bishop is beautifully placed. |
