I know that a few days ago I said that if Anand wanted to win this match, he was going to have to play 1.e4.

And e4 he did play in the fifth game but... Alas, this is not exactly what I had in mind when I said that!

Gelfand had the easiest game so far in the match, an effortless draw in 27 moves.

 

Is getting a draw against Anand as simple as Gelfand is making it look like? it can't be!
