So I logged on to ye olde chess server about two hours into the round, and opened the Anand-Carlsen game. Result? Drawn already. Disappointing, but it's what I expected, and had even mentioned that prediction in my post on round 5. On to the next game, which was Ivanchuk-Nakamura...which was also already drawn, by repetition in just 16 moves. (It's great to see such fighting spirit, isn't it?) At least Mr. Fire on Board, 5-0, would try with the white pieces to knock the (comparatively) lowly-rated Short off, wouldn't he? Try, yes, but without much success. The game was still going but the position was obviously and completely drawn, and the game lasted just three more moves. Karjakin-Smeets was already drawn as well (guess who's not going to repeat as Corus champ?), so for Group A excitement we're having to rely on Kramnik and Leko. (Fortunately, they're delivering! Incidentally, all 14 of the Group B and C games are still going at the 3 hour mark.)
