  Bobby Fiske: NOW: Turn on the live web cam to follow the Sofia rules in practice...
May-03-10  Papagambit: repetition is all B has
May-03-10  danielpi: A good game -- well played on both sides. Should be interesting to see what Anand tries in his next White.

Ciao all.

May-03-10  Papagambit: does Qxg2 win!?
May-03-10  arkansaw: Anand declines draw, perhaps he favours some hand exercise today.

  Nigel Short: This has a "tablas" feel to it.
Incidentally I noticed that Florencio Campomanes snuffed it today. Along with Cheparinov, he is only other person to refuse my handshake in recent years. It is a little ironic when one remembers that it was the FIDE Presidential Board, of which he was a member, that made such a point of the issue...
May-03-10  MTuraga: he he he......a draw is looming after all the acrobatics !!!!!

  agent48: it doestnt look like vishy is going to crush topa like most thought. However,being up a full point, another draw is another step towards winning the match.

  Ulhumbrus: It looks as if Anand has decided to play for a win. He had a draw if he wanted it.
May-03-10  vonKrolock: 33...d3-d2 for an immediate draw

  OneArmedScissor: d2 draw coming
May-03-10  Papagambit: 33.Qf1? didn't 33.Kh2 in! ?

  extremepleasure2: This is not draw. There's still plenty of play here.
May-03-10  MaxxLange: I'm an Anand supporter, but it is almost a shame to see Topalov not get more out of his interesting play in this game
May-03-10  utrarapido: After several attempts, Topa shows that a P on the 6th rank can sometimes be strong!

  SetNoEscapeOn: almost :)
May-03-10  vonKrolock: ...but with a check in e3 black is drawing too

  Nigel Short: White is a smidgen better. I think Anand just wants symbolically to hold the upper hand. The result will be the same though.
May-03-10  Mateo: 33...Qe3+!?. I was expecting 33...d2.

have you had an occasion to shake hands with Topalov since his match with Kramnik?

  tamar: <Papagambit: 33.Qf1? didn't 33.Kh2 in! ?> That would have been a blunder I think after 33...f5 if 34 Qd2 Qc2! wins

Uh. I don't think I've ever had any contact with you -- ever. Why should I care? That said, I thank you for the invitation.
