------------------------------------------------

In the 5th game, in this position:
2N3k1/5p2/1p4pp/4n3/4Q3/4P1PP/q4PK1/8 b -
Kramnik plays 34...Qa2-c4??, and after 35.Ne7+, he resigned. The 34th move was
the worst of his career.

At least he didn“t throw bombs at anyone gaining his first million.
