Round 13 with comments
Before we knew it, Radjabov had already won. He had managed to lure Shirov into an ending that's known to be better for White. Shirov's novelty on move 20 couldn't change that verdict - in fact, according to Radjabov it was a losing mistake. Topalov beat a tired Leko, who started to play inaccurately in timetrouble. Ivanchuk-Anand and en Aronian-Carlsen were quick draws.Links:
