 | | Domdaniel: Fascinating. When the engine eval is at +2.4, it's a draw. In actual winning lines it jumps to +4.4 or +6.9... |

 | | FSR: Is anyone alive out there, or did the Rapture occur just now, a little later than predicted? |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | FSR: OK, Domdaniel and I haven't been Raptured. That figures. |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | Domdaniel: <FSR> Sorry, the signal is weak here in the upper atmosphere ... |

 | | JamesT Kirk: 61.../Rf3+;62.Kh2/Ra1; |
 |

 | | FSR: <Capt. Kirk> Nah, he eats the pawn with ...Rxg4, drawing I think. |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | FSR: OK, shows what I know. Obviously he's decided to go for perpetual instead. |
 |
| Jun-17-11 | | kasp: if you click on live video feed, it shows that karjakin won on move 66.Ra2 |
 |
| Jun-17-11 | | kasp: ok.. now it's here,too :D |

 | | dakgootje: Wait.. what just happened? :S |
 |

 | | Domdaniel: Whaaaat? |

 | | virginmind: 65...h5?? what the...! |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | FSR: Well, that was a surprising denouement, to me at least. I want to see some analysis from someone who (unlike me) knows what was going on in that ending. I still don't understand why Black didn't play ...Rxg4. |
 |
| Jun-17-11 | | Gordon1306: Well done Sergey!! |
 |

 | | waustad: Very strange end to this game. |
 |

 | | suenteus po 147: Carlsen has some competition in the standings now. |
 |

 | | Ulhumbrus: It looks as if instead of taking the pawn by 62...Rxg4 Nisipeanu blundered by 62...Rgf1?? and on 63 Rd7+ was compelled to exchange a Rook |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | Domdaniel: I saw Rd6 played, then it got changed to Rc2, met by ...h5 and resignation? *Baffled*. |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | JamesT Kirk: Ithink that 62..../Rgf1 is a great mistake! |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | dakgootje: Very interested in their analysis in the press conference thing. |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | Gypsy: Ah, so 57.Rc6+ was winning after all. (I was abut to post that suggestion, when I got dragged away by life.) Congrats to Karjakin. And Nisi certainly impressed by his performance. |

 | | Administrator: Thanks to everyone for being with us today. The tournament resumes tomorrow at 8:30 AM USA/Eastern time. Hope to see you then. |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | Domdaniel: It seems that 65.Rc2 Ra7 66.Ra2, followed by 67.Ra5, is a win after all -- contrary to what I thought I knew about these endings. Either way, ...h5 is bizarre. |
 |
| Jun-17-11 | | ajile: Why not 15..Qxb3 16.axb3 a6? |
 |
Jun-17-11
 | | virginmind: <dakgootje> on the official site there are only the video conferences for the other 2 games of round 6. the third should be up shortly. |
