Waooo! I just found out, thanks to this post, that this game was played just
some days ago by Anand... and he played the winning move 24...Nc7 that I just
sent to one of my correspondence opponents! (an over 2300 iccf rated player) Now
I am very curious to find out if Anand had the move analyzed in his home
analysis or if he found it directly over the chessboard! My shredder found this
move around the end of the summer of last year, it was in infinite analysis, and
since then I added that move to my opening book and started playing some games
with that line on playchess in engines room.
I am very happy I found a strong move that later will have been played by Anand
himself :-)
