It's funny I'm actually surprised about h5. Should be natural, black's better. With Vishy's decisions in the first 2 games though, I have to admit I was scared
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

Edit: b5 by Anand, ouch

will white follow with Bh3 ?
And my fury stands ready. I bring all your plans to nought. My bleak heart beats steady. 'Tis you whom I have sought.

What's worse than a knight on h1?
A queen being trapped next to the king on h1.

Honestly I think they agree a draw in a few moves, after Carlsen takes e6 and stuff

Why would they draw? There's absolutely no reason for Vishy not to push for a win here.

To all the peeps hating on Carlsen's queen, I believe Qh1 was an idea he used during the candidates tournament.

No way. Anand has concrete advantage; he will agree to draw only in a situation where all his active options run out.

The Queen in the corner makes me nostalgic for that puzzle game where you have to get that 1 block out of the puzzle box.

Going for a draw isnt Carlsens style, especially as white... You saw how he reacted after the first match.

Carlsen is going to look for every possible way to get into a better position. And honestly, the queen in the corner isn't in such a bad position when you concider the towers and the white diagonal. Sure, it's bad, but not that bad.

My nationality reveals my POV as not very objective though

Wow that e3... What now

I am really worried for Carlsen here. With time running out and all that aggression black can apply in the next moves...

Game over?

Edit: Ofc Magnus thought for a pretty long time. Might be something tricky hidden here I guess
