If this is still in Anand's preparation, as it seems to be, this is a huge problem for Carlsen. Could be Anand's first win today.

Carlsen is on immense pressure atm, both in position and in time.

Exciting game today ! Im cheering for Carlsen, but if Anand won today, the match as a whole would get a lot more exciting !

Can someone help me with a link to the international stream? Would be interesting to hear what the official commentators are saying, since the Norwegian ones are kinda biased (in a good way) at times.

If Anand can't win this game I don't think he can win this series.

so how does black defend Qb8? Rxb8 loses a rook cuz c pawn promotes, bh4+ seems bad because of g3. say he tries to play passive with something like h6, after Qxf8, Bxf8 the c pawn can still promote and black is still down a rook. i'm probably missing something, i just tuned in and didn't analyze the board too much but black seems toast.

He goes Rc8. I mean he's still behind but he doesn't just instantly lose to that.

i assumed Qb8 for white before castling.. probably doesn't make much of a difference if he chose to give magnus a tempo by playing a defensive move.

Seems like Anand really has a great chance to take game 3 now!

Edit: Well, he is winning actually. This will be Anand's first win against Carlsen in the WC, this has the potential to really give Anand a huge boost (as Svidler pointed out).

lol, Anand wanted a discussion or something after the game, but Carlsen was to pissed and just left; he didn't even look at Vishy after the handshake

what a game! Now we got ourselves a series I'm so glad this wasn't a repeat performance of last year, so far all games have been very exciting and only 1/3 draws!

Is this woman really asking about how time the players prepared? That should be a non-question honestly

I was wasn't watching the video feed. Did Magnus gg with .6 seconds left on the clock? That's what the site I was watching said.
