DeepTrouble: KnightVsBishop:
<Karjakin is better then magnus at blitz> You have a bad habit of making factual statements, and then asking for the answers afterwards :) The fact is, Magnus is stronger than Karjakin in blitz. Just take a look at their blitz game statistics here on ...

DeepTrouble: Molloychess in responde to haydn20:
<Missed a win? If you are talking about Rb1+; 51, Ka2, then I don't think that is a win necessarily. It's a rook ending that the computer evaluates as better but Carlsen may have evaluated as drawish.> I agree: Ka2 didn't lead to a win,

<Interview with Anand in video here 1m8s out > Thanks for the link. There's also a very brief clip with Daniel King (whose statements have been posted in VG and other Norwegian newspapers today).

DeepTrouble: Badest:
Oh, BTW, Magnus did say in the same article that he needed to be better prepared and get in better shape (physically, because he was exhausted and didn't do well in the last three rounds). Does that help? :)

DeepTrouble: So basically, if Naka plays Magnus with white, he should have good drawing chances. But if he plays black, he tends to lose against Magnus.

DeepTrouble: Fanques Fair:
< 21-..., Rxb8 22- Kc2 , Rb2+ , 23- Kxc3 , Rxe2, 24- Bf4, Ra2 ! ... 25- Kb3 , Rxg2, 26 - Bxd6 > First of all, 22. ... Rb2+ is a mistake (because after Rxe2, white puts his rook on b1 a few moves later, invades black's position and eats up his pawns), and ...

DeepTrouble: Molloychess:
<The computer gave black the advantage after Bxf3 then Qxe5. But it was clearly trickier than it looked because Carlsen then played the best moves and the evaulation went back to equality.> I've analyzed the game using Houdini 3 on a relatively fast computer ...

DeepTrouble: <rapidcitychess: I think chess history books are often game books, and game books often have standings. You can't get away without mentioning the tie.> Of course there will be detailed information about the standings, who won against whom, etc. if you seek out that ...

DeepTrouble: PhilFeely:
Yes, I know about Chessbomb, but they base their list on other tie-break criteria. I'm also aware of the Chessbase article (about shared 1st place), but it was posted before the official results were changed. At first the official site stated that Aronian had won, ...

DeepTrouble: The exchange sac was sound I think. g3 might be better from an objective standpoint, but Magnus prefers active play. Fabiano was getting low on time and Magnus probably wanted to avoid simplifications. Subjectively (psychologically), Nd4 made a lot of sense to me.
