    Anand looks good now to me.

    He's sooo calm-looking about the whole thing. Very confident man.

    In rook endings u need to win 2:0.
    1:0 for one pawn up
    1:0 for more active rook(s)

    Anand feels comfortable now...he gets up for the first time after such a tight position.

    it was a waste of a move

    Ya a pity. And now Anand has 13 minutes to reach what, move 40?

    Do you mean you need to be 2.0 up in computer evaluation?

    Not sure, depends on the engine evaluation.
    But is it more a thumb rule for humans.
    1:0 means pawn up
    2:0 could mean 2 pawns up, too; while both rooks have same activity.
