Anand Triumph Botvinnik Memorial

World Champion, Viswanathan Anand ended the tournament with a 1½ point lead ahead of Kramnik Vladimir. While Aronian finished 3rd place. Unfortunately rating favourite, Magnus Carlsen only managed to collect 1½ point and finished last place. A special mode in this game is that in the middle of the game the clocks will be stopped and the players will than give a live commentary during the match. The opponent has to wear headphones (so they cant hear) while his opponent is giving the comment.
