“I tried not to win against Vishy”
13.08.2005 - Alexander Grischuk might have been a bit tired after the five Ordix games, because in his first game of the day against Vishy Anand the players agreed to share the point after 22 moves. In the second game of the Grenke Leasing championship the Indian sacrificed a pawn and started an attack.

However, this time, Grischuk kept his cool and eventually won the game after 49 moves. “After 10 moves I was winning”, Grischuk said, and Anand agreed:”Well, this was one of these games. You know you shouldn´t do it, but you play the bad moves.” In the press conference Grischuk revealed some details about his sudden presence in the Ordix Open: “I have not won a game in the last three months, and I needed to win a few games. The  first game of the day was the most difficult one. I decided to play the Ordix this morning: I missed breakfast and I thought: what am I going to do today? I thought it was too boring to spend the day alone, so I decided to give it a shot”. Finally Grischuk joked: “ I tried not to win a game against Vishy,  but OK, I won the sixth game. Tomorrow I am going to play from 10 to 10”. The match is not decided yet, although Anand only needs half a point to win his 8th Chess Classic title. The Tiger leads 4-2. Two more games will be played on Sunday.
