I don't think Carlsen's is exceptional considering thats the opening he lost with... It's more of how horrible Vishy's preparation must be... | ||

Pretty sure that Carlsen chose this variation as a way to burn Anand's time and force Anand to tire out since there's no way that Anand would have prepped for that variation at 8.Re8. Plus, it lets Carlsen rest a bit after yesterday's game | ||

Also, should the internet get Hot_Bid to do a Carlsen interview? | ||

For some background information, a very similar ending appeared in Nunn's Chess Endings. Please read that book to make an informed decision. This one in particular was particularly condescending. | ||

We didn't make it personal, but since you want a villain to be mad at today, I'll oblige: You should mention your chess rating again. Maybe that will offset you telling people who disputed your misapprehension to read a book. | ||
