Nov-24-11  wordfunph: Anand at the press conference..

Question: Are you going to win any games at this tournament?

Anand: What kind of question is that? You act as if I had a choice every day and I chose a draw. I keep trying. I'll try tomorrow we'll see. I liked white's position "I blew it obviously."

Nov-25-11  TheMacMan: (-0.20) means nothing
Nov-25-11  King Death: <TheMacMan> That's true, but at least <kingscrusher> doesn't try to pass it off as though it does. Even if he did, he's done a lot of good work with his videos, etc., so I wouldn't care.
