Its Anand V Gelfand for the World Chess Crown




The Challenger for Anand has been decided. Boris Gelfand won the FIDE Candidate trophy to earn the right to challenge Anand for the crown. I was hoping for an Anand-Carlsen meet but i think this would also be a good match as both of them are known to be strong in their openings and very good positional strategies.Looks like we would have a long drawn out games with lot of draws. Unless one of them decided like Topalov did in the previous Championships to come out firing with an aggressive style we would probably have a lot of Draws. But still too early to call as the match is scheduled to be held next year so a lot of time for analyzing and preparation.
