Much much harder OTB after 2 hours of play against the best in the world. | ||

Rc1+ was a blunder. Of course it's easy to look at the engine line and everyone's screaming "Blunder!". Mind that the engine shows you one out of hundreds of possible lines. All of those need to be calculated over the board. | ||

If Anand missed 3 drawing chances, does that mean Carlsen handed back 2 won games? Or more likely it just means Anand missed 3 chances to create a clear draw? | ||
