Any possibility Anand is trying to draw these out with minimal preparation and focus on some of the remaining 4 games we've got left now?

Wow. I can't believe this commentator (Trent). He literally called the game dull and boring, and on the subject of him playing a blitz game, suggested that it would be more interesting than the game that was played.

The problem is Carlsen only spent 20mins for the whole game, so he's not really have maximum preparation for this game either ...

Well it's true, Vishy's play doesn't make much sense. He's playing like he has already lost the and doesn't care.

Why did Carlsen say he wasn't in a mood to think (regarding his fast moves) though?
Play more Quake.

Lol the stream is coming from one laptop? Or only the game data?

I guess so. It's still not professional. Anyway, here's hoping Anand takes a few games to prolong this tournament!

i'm quite disappointed about vishis play. I was hoping his match yesterday was just a fluke but a comeback seems less likely now.

Yeah, Carlsen seemed to think the game was dull as well.

20 minutes for 33 moves, that's probably the easiest game Carlsen played this year.

Carlsen still needs to consider all these possibilities of high risk games every game while Anand has shown nothing of his actual 'desperation' plan. Right now Anand can maybe prepare some very specific plan further while Carlsen still has to be prepared for a wide selection of riskier approaches.

... Or maybe there's no plan. I'm just trying to make sense on why Anand isn't bringing out the fireworks at this point. The next game might give us a pretty good idea on whether Anand has got gas left in his tank.

Carlsen happy with the draw, obviously. Anand must be happy in his own way too: He'll try to win the last two whites and if he only wins one he can still go all out with black in game 12. Unfortunately the way the match has been going he might well fail to win any and the match ends after game 11.

Carlsen seems to be disciplined enough not to take any risks at this point.
