FIDE World Chess Championship: Vishy Anand-Magnus Carlsen - Page 5 - Chess and Board Game Strategy

White has a very difficult position after 26...Ne7 and with so many candidate moves, it's not surprising Anand erred with 27. Nb5?. I expect Carlsen to convert his advantage.

A pawn is a pawn I guess.....

I think I would prefer to play with white. But I am a patzer.

38.Nd4 Nxd4 all is equal. Looked like Carlsen had him for a minute.

I can only follow through the 2700chess site from work, so I'm counting on you guys for the eval.

Is 41.Kc3 a mistake?

The comp line leads to a drawn R ending now after Re3 (b vs a+b)

They're going to put up the good fight, but I don't see any way this doesn't end up drawn.

Really enjoyed the last two rounds.
