| Matches candidates won their party's oldest Boris Gelfand So what we have written a few days ago, has come to pass: in the next year will compete for the chess crown for those over forty: Viswanathan Anand and Boris Gelfand. A couple of hours ago, an Israeli victory in the final installment of the classical finals contenders over Alexander Grischuk and was thus the only candidate to identify which was started a competition in Kazan. Note that Grischuk did not "dry" today's game, and went to defend Grunfeld, where even the development of a white elephant on g2 can get rich game. And demonstrated that both chess players. Apparently, the Russians became a serious mistake to take 20 ... Bxh4. Damaging the opponent "haircut" on the kingside, Alexander was left without an important elephant, giving a white center and providing opportunities for the opening game. Very soon, Gelfand was a decisive advantage, which brought up the victory.
