Of course this is the very place to talk about any major chess event in CCC. The world championship is what would be considered a major event in chess. Every game played is infused with hundreds if not thousands of hours of computer chess engine analysis in developing the opening strategy, and to think that computer chess has no place in human games is incredibly silly. Computer chess is all about the improvement of human chess ... and what better platform to see that happening than the human world chess championship? I can't imagine one person who is interested in computer chess that is not also interested in a human world chess championship.

Totally agree Majd. I have no idea why it was moved to CTF yesterday and then was sent back.

Nothing much to talk about this game.
A classic GM short game of chess with a draw outcome
Gelfand must press for a win in the last two games....
If the tie breaks kicks off,he'll most probably go home without the title he's fighting for....

Anand seems to be amazingly timid in his games. It is almost as if he is overriding his instincts and playing inferior moves that have little tactical danger. Why on earth he is doing that is beyond me, as he is one of the strongest tactical players on earth, and complications can only work to his advantage. Having said that, Gelfand really seems to have prepared incredibly well against Anand and that seems to have leveled the playing field.
