My 7 day trail period there has already passed, and I guess it's not necessary to sign up again. Playchess does broadcast it right now, they probably have delayed it because of the recent cheating accusations.
what's up with Kramnik's ...Nc6 anyway? why would he allow doubled pawns, normally I thought that type of move had the idea of developing the roo 1Bp5/3PP3/2P2N2/P4PPP/R1BQK2R w KQkq - 0 9[/fen]
(last move ...Nc6 by black -Kramnik)
What are these accusations ? Can you tell us more about that ? A link to the subject would be great.

I think some time (several months) ago GM tournament organizers has taken a precautionary action such as delaying the online broadcasts about 30 mins after the games start, so that it'll be difficult to get help from the 'outside world' (since they won't be knowing what's going on the 'inside'😉.
excuse me for the bad english.
