Anand vs Topalov Game 7

And now SF gives black an edge!

Because move 25 Qh3! was a better move. Anand didnt see it.

It may indeed be the better move but do you see how it wins? The SF PV above leads to a drawish rook ending IMO, see my diagram above.

No, I dont see how it won, but it gave Anand a better offensive position instead of now defending those advancing pawns.

Hi,

I wonder why they chose such an unreliable engine. Those changes in evaluation from one move to an other for expected moves show us why one shouldn't use this engine for analysing.

There is nothing stopping you from posting with the engine of your choice ...

Where did the analysis scores change significantly? It could also be the human moves that cause the evaluation to change ...

Anand has controlled the games since game 1 (where he blundered) and up to now. I thought Topalov was going to be the one dictating the outcomes, but it seem Anand is proving to be very prepared.
