Kramnik seems to avoid his main lines again. He allowed the QID with 3.Nf3, insteaf aiming for Catalan with 3. g3. Leko will probably equalize without too much trouble.


Gustafsson-Ivanchuk is already rather crazy position in what is nominally a QGD, but what looks more like QGA.

The other two games are Sicilians. Too early to say anything, but I think Naidich may have good chances to get advantage again.
