ANAND vs TOPALOV WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 2010

After the first recess, Game Three started peacefully (really?). True to his word, Topalov did not offer a draw or shake Anand's hand. Instead, the three-fold repetition forced the share of the point. However, Game Four was another matter. Anand masterfully finished his opponent with a sound mating attack, reminiscent of his younger playing days. Another recess followed before Anand's Slav held Topalov's attack once again in Game Five. Before the start of game 6 tonight, Anand still has the upper hand with the scoreline 3 - 2.
