Sorry, I just took it the wrong way...I felt I was being insulted...it happens here too often:( You're right, I don't care for _that_ line in the QGD...White is a bit better. After the easy move Rd6...it look rather ugly for Black IMO. Leko probably felt good at this point...and he collected the point!;-) Today's game though is making me wonder where Kramnik's mind is at...he's not playing deep enough...the preperation by his seconds didn't make him aware of all the resources Black had. Kramnik is better than that...getting caught by fairly simple tactics, looks bad, I mean he had plenty of time to think and he didn't make the proper use of it. Leko OTOH used lots of time, and was able to capitilize on Kramnik's miscues. Kramnik isn't out yet...but he better work his butt off if he intends to draw the match, let alone win it! > >> >>What do you want me to say to a disrespectful remark like that? >>>
