Very good Anand played well in the end game. It should be
a draw now.

I hope topalov is going to make some blunder but I do not expect it.

[Dr.Wael Deeb]

Anand found the strength within to hold on the position....
I am glad

Tomorrow Topalov will have to assume some risks, and I hope Anand will punish him!!

Draw

Agreed....The 12th game will be played very carefully and the tiebreaks are knocking on the door....I fear the worst for Anand,Topalov is a tiebreaker,a classic one,it will be difficult to outplay him....

Anand is like 100-150 ELO stringer than Topa in rapid. IMO Topa either wins tomorrow or Anand is the favorite.
