World Chess Championship 2012

Two draws so far. I think passed pawn(s) will decide things.

Boris Gelfand's strategical tactics

Gelfand-Anand (Interzonal, Biel 1993) -- and Boris Gelfand's grasp of strategic tactics, and how he played the player and not just the position, says it all.

[Event "Izt"]
[Site "Biel (Switzerland)"]
[Date "1993"]
[Round "8"]
[Result "1-0"]
[White "Boris Gelfand"]

Congrats Vishy!
