Thanks again for the posts on this match Ted.Looks like another win
for Anand.

Gerold.

Its good that Anand got the lead early, if its Kramnik who is leading, the play will be boring. Kramnik is now forced to play sharply.

[emerson4301972]

Thanks Ted for the updates : )

Please include the time remaining for each player to add to the drama.

[emerson4301972]

Does this favor Kramnik or Anand?

Kramnik seems to be losing with white so the FIDE's move seems to favor Kramnik.
