Anand chess games 2010

When the match finally began, it turned out to be as entertaining and fighting as the aforementioned Kramnik — Topalov and Anand — Kramnik matches. Already in the first game, there was a decisive result. However, Topalov seemed prepared and opened his account after Anand forgot his preparation on the move 23! However, immediately in the 2nd game, Anand leveled the scores by displaying his mastery in a Catalan endgame.

Then after a draw in the 3rd game, he again won with the White pieces, after producing a nice 10 Na3! In a Slav endgame, he held the advantage for a long time, then threw it away. But Anand was the last to make a mistake and Topalov managed to win after Anand blundered heavily in seemingly drawn opposite bishops endgame.

Thus, the intrigue in the match was maintained until the very end. Before the 12th game, the score was equal. Anand deviated from his beloved Slav and employed the drawish Lasker defence, indicating his willingness to play the rapid tiebreaks. He chose to play riskily, grabbed a pawn and subjected himself to an attack. In the end, he lost a very complicated battle. Therefore, with the only win for the player with the Black pieces in the match, Anand defended his title and remained on the throne.
