Double bishop seems much better than pawn/rook in this type of situation. Especially since that pawn was given up earlier by Magnus for position.

Oh man, Carlsen did not play that well imo.

A +2 advantage for Carlsen isn't great when it's two bishops vs a rook, hard to play well imo.

Missed opportunities by Carlsen. Even discounting the engine moves that he didn't see, I'm not sure why he would simplify the situation like this.

edit: The engines didn't like f6 much though.

You can force it with enough time.

Carlsen mate in 51, let's see if he can calculate

The fide site is still kind of screwed up for me.
At least Magnus is white most of the time now, lol.

Is this a draw?

Yeah, it's a draw now.

Magnus had three different times that there was a blunder into check in x. It was happening too quickly for me to really analyze well enough.

Lol.. another draw. Was fun in the end tho, apparently Carlsen had the game won at several points in theory.
