Jul-08-09		Ulhumbrus: By now White may have nothing better than to repeat moves

Jul-08-09		mig55: draw?

Jul-08-09		Appaz: <<firebyrd> Not necessarily a formal draw offer> You might be right, it's not clear from the notes. Then it must be the Rxb3 drawing line

Jul-08-09		tamar: Shouldn't the arbiter instruct Carlsen to put all his pieces on black squares again :)

Jul-08-09		JohnBoy: I don't think white should take a draw here. Play f3, Rh1, h5 and try to prssure the black king. Where is black's play? ...a4? Hardly.

Jul-08-09		hcbsb: There is the time yet, maybe Carlsen plays as usual, goes on the drawish game and then... White 42 m Bkack 1 h 26 m

Jul-08-09		Dionyseus: Analysis by Rybka 3 x64 4CPU: 42.f3 Qa7 43.Rfd1 Qc5 44.Rd2 g6 45.Ra2 Qb4 46.Qd3 Kg7 47.Ra4 Qc3 48.Qxc3 Bxc3 49.Ra3 Bb4 50.Ra2 Bc3 = (0.23) Depth: 21 00:05:19 68422kN

Jul-08-09		Sem: A game that ends in a draw mostly ends up in a drawer.

Jul-08-09		just a kid: I wonder if Carlsen will try to avoid the repetition?

Jul-08-09		waustad: draw agreed

Jul-08-09		Ulhumbrus: White does have one resource left. If White plays f3 and Black plays his other Rook to f8, that allows b4. If not, White can play Bc2 and Qd3

Jul-08-09		JohnBoy: <Dionyseus> What does Rybka give on 42.f3 Qa7 43.h5?

Jul-08-09		twinlark: I did say a draw offer was near...g'night all, from oz.

Jul-08-09		chessgames.com: Thanks to everybody for participating in today's live broadcast from the 2009 Sparkassen Chess Meeting in Dortmund, Germany. Tomorrow morning at the same time (9am USA/Eastern) we'll be showing the top board from round 7. Hope to see you here!

Jul-08-09		waustad: K-L looks like it may soon join the peace movement.

Jul-08-09		waustad: They did.

Jul-08-09		eternaloptimist: Well, at least it was an interesting draw, & I'll get some chessbucks because of it. : )

Jul-08-09		mateifl: <JohnBoy: I don't think white should take a draw here. Play f3, Rh1, h5 and try to prssure the black king. Where is black's play? ...a4? Hardly.> This might backfire. Rooks and Queen on the f file and Black might get more then enough counterplay.

Jul-08-09		jcnorcro: A DRAW....how,,ur,,boring!!

Jul-08-09		Knight13: As many have predicted.

Jul-08-09		Dionyseus: <JohnBoy> <What does Rybka give on 42.f3 Qa7 43.h5? > click for larger view Analysis by Rybka 3 x64 4CPU: 43...Kg8 44.f4 exf4 45.Bd5+ Kh8 46.Rxf4 Rxf4 47.gxf4 Qd7 48.Qe6 = (0.25) Depth: 21 00:08:49 134mN

Jul-08-09		whiteshark: Finally a fair result.

Jul-08-09		lost in space: Draw - as said at the very beginning. Oh and btw: last so far!

Jul-08-09		arnaud1959: Very few players would play 35-Bxd5, weakening seriously the important b1-h7 diagonal. But once again Carlsen showed us how different he was. White's last opportunity to take advatage of that weakness by 40.Qe4 fails to 40.-Qb7.

Mar-15-11		Penguincw: < Jul-08-09 Ulhumbrus: By now White may have nothing better than to repeat moves > So white was lucky to draw?
