Lest you think everyone finds the ongoing world championship match dispiriting, have a look at this Tweet:
Anand-Gelfand g 12 was brilliant.Anand found a great pawn sac at home,and Gelfand answered with 2 pawn sacs! Wow,can't wait till tiebreaks!
Take that, haters! - that's from world #2 Levon Aronian! On the other hand, I reported on world #3 Vladimir Kramnik's utter disbelief about the finish of game 12, which, among other things, he found shocking and "a complete present" for Gelfand. (You can find other, more moderate comments by Kramnik on the match as a whole in this interview.)
So who's right? They both are. The openings and early middlegames have been interesting, with plenty of new ideas. Both players have managed to put fairly popular variations out of business, and have also done a very good of neutralizing the other's opening innovations. The problem has been that once they've done that, they call it a day rather than seeing where subsequent play will take them.
Tomorrow, they will have to play.
