In the press conference, they analyzed a nice line that at the end with a rook sac and queen with check. This was 34.d7 Rcc2 35.Rc4 Rb2+ 36.Kc1 Rxa2 37.Rc8 Rf2 (Threatening mate on f1 or a1) 38. Re6+! Kf7 39.Rf6!! wins. So Vishy had not seen this resource and hence dint play 34.d7. A pity. But a nice fighting game

He'll be disappointed to have missed a good opportunity - he didn't have a lot of time left on the clock.
After 34.d7! there appear to be 3 main defenses for black:
1) 34...Rcc2 35.Rc4 Rxc4 36.bxc4
2) 34...Rd1+ 35.Kb2 Rd2+ 36.Ka3 Rcc2
3) 34...Rd1+ 35.Kb2 Rc5 36.Rexh7 Rd2+
So far in each line Houdini gives a score above +0.9 at depth 35 or higher.
Not sure whether it's a win, but it's certainly very promising.

I went back to see the "Easy Win" words, could not find them.
All I could find that Robert said is this:
"Instead of Anand's 34.Rc7 the alternative 34.d7! looks very promising."
with Roberts high chess rating, strong hardware, strong program, and programming ability, I didnt think he would say "easy win".
This group has run off most all programmers, I hate to lose another programmer, but if Robert dissappears, I will still read here.

Mr.Houdini has rushed a little bit so early to claim that Anand had missed an easy win....
Sorry, you must see things that aren`t there!
In his post Mr. Houdine asked: did Anand miss a win?
And he wrote: "...looks very promising"
Nothing else!
"Very promising" in the game of ches is almost identical to winning the game actually so I stick to my guns on that....
I am not interested in a game of words and I do handle the english language pretty well....at least I think so

So what Should I do
Build a statue of Robert and get down on my knees because he's a programmer
Sticking to the same logic,where were you when Don or the so called Mr.Komodo called me Dweeb without no reason of whatever
I treat people by their kindness or by their nasty nature....Robert is definitely in the second group and if he wants to leave then let it be....
