Kibitzer's Corner
Jan-10-08  acirce: An easy draw against the champion of the King's Indian using his own weapon. However, Kramnik was otherwise not very successful with this opening when he briefly tried it out - just this single draw out of three games here in Las Palmas. (More so in Piket vs Kramnik, 1997 one year later when he used it in what was practially a must-win situation - but he still did not want to give it any more chances.)
Feb-01-10  KingG: <acirce> <However, Kramnik was otherwise not very successful with this opening when he briefly tried it out - just this single draw out of three games here in Las Palmas.> Sounds a bit like his Najdorf experiment.
Nov-21-14  The Rocket: Why not play on? White is much better.
