Game two of the World Championship is on atm. http://chennai2013.fide.com/live-game-with-video/ - Live video http://www.twitch.tv/chessnetwork - Best chess kibitzer online.
Ended up a draw by repetition. Anand could have really tried to press his space advantage but chose to exchange queens instead basically killed off any excitement there. The press conference is hilarious though. Both giving nothing answers or outright refusing to answer anything on tactics/preparation/format.
did i watch the wrong game or something because i didn't see any hint of a queen exchange. queen harassment, sure
so the answer is yes i watched the wrong game. haven't caught the second game yet. edit: okay now i see it. i don't see what you're meant to do after qg4 though? kh7 and then you don't have enough pieces to break that
Getting the H rook involved shouldn't be too hard. Rh3 ... Rg3 and black is pretty much forced into playing defensively. It's just got far more going for it than exchanging queens there.
Match drawn again...Anand was clearly in a position of strength after move #36...I don't know why he didn't go for 37. Rf8
I watched this game for a while but it was taking too long so I went to bed. They had heaps of viewers on twitch though
