The game was draw. What to analyze a draw game. Lol. Both were playing well. The game started in queen's gambit style. Again I don't have much experience in this variation but essentially what it does is, it generates lame d5 black pawn. Then Kramnik had to exert lots of energy in just saving the d5 pawn. However, Kramnik was able to get hold of d4 square pushing the Anand's rook on d3 which enabled Kramnik to play d4. Which ultimately yielded a draw game. The way how Kramnik got hold on the centre squares is by pushing Anand's white bshop on g2 enabling Kramnik's knight on c5 to capture e6 square which in turn push Anand's rook to d3 as described above.
Overall a boring draw game. Waited 4 hours to see a draw. Let's see what's gonna happen on Monday. I am expecting Kramnik to start with sicilian defence. Enough of d4 business. He has enough time to make strategy for Monday.
