What would be the difference in points where one would say "player A stands no chance vs player B"? Or in other words: how significant is the 95 points between Carlsen and Anand? | ||

DANGIT EDIT: nvm just the commentators playing with board Its something i dislike about the that commentator. He tends to go off on long extrapolations of moves even while the players are making moves in the mean time. Would much rather see shorter extrapolations that keep truer to the current board. | ||

If two players with equal ratings play against each other, they are expected to score an equal number of wins (50% each). A player whose rating is 100 points greater than his or her opponent's is expected to score 64%, if the difference is 200 points the expected score for the stronger player is 76%."

All the computers have this game at a dead end draw right now, 5 in a row quite unfortunate. | ||

Can anyone give a quick update on how this game's progressed? Were there any turnarounds and such? | ||

As a side note, this shows how little I know of endgames, I have no idea why anands move was a blunder, even looking at the engine lines Guess I'll find out in 12 moves or something | ||
