I'd like to ask GM Seirawan about the stupidity of his 'plan' of not including the best players in his Prague Agreement..I mean GM Anand who was still at his peak was not even invited in the Prague Agreement..How could Seirawan make such a blunder??..Did they make an offer and Anand declined, or did they even ask Anand ? Its a different matter Anand eventually managed to get the title from Kramnik later..

Yasser looks like the joker here

Here is an important element of Kasparov's life story. In the 1995 Anand vs Kasparov world championship, Anand took the lead in game 9. In game 10, every time Kasparov made a move, he got up to go to the bathroom and slammed the door behind him so hard the room shook. The young and mild mannered Anand did not complain to the arbiter, who also did not act. Bullying destroys lives, and bullied children suffer lifelong low self esteem. I don't care how good his moves are on the board; if Kasparov needs such despicable tactics in order to win, then he is no champion.

you telling me annand lost because kasparov was making noise? grow up, its all mental games, jordan was the same.

[@whaddoiknow6519]

@@chicof5031 That is not what I said if you read my comment carefully. The issue is whether it is OK to indulge in such tactics. If it is, is it also OK to threaten to break your opponent's legs or to have him abducted?
