Giving away when you left your preparation is huge. They usually say something like: "I was going through all the lines to make sure I remembered my preparation", but hiding information must be just as important. | ||

Secret strats and heavy analysis in a game where its nearly impossible to get an edge anywhere before turn 20. Gonna follow the games for sure, hope its as good covered as the challenger tourney. Studying from replays and learning by heart is like 90% of preparation for such a series. | ||

Edit: Is pawn to f6 a correct play? If not why? I see almost nothing wrong with it  . | ||

I watched the first match, having never watched a chess match before, with a friend of mine who plays chess and could explain some more stuff to me since I didn't really know much aside from how the pieces move. It's extremely entertaining to just think along with the people playing the match and the commentators and see what would work and what doesn't. | ||

ATM, the a6-Knight is ridiculous, and with lack of activity for Black, it looks like drawing this will be a miracle for Carlsen. | ||

At the risk of violating my own mod note... it's this kind of position which nicely illustrates the difference between computer and human chess  all the engines are saying this is a drawish position but there looks to be so many interesting human lines because the drawn lines require perfect play. | ||

Yeah computer evaluations do not display risk properly somehow | ||

I think we are over it by now. And I'm really happy Anand was playing mind games and now brings his full strength to the board. really interesting position. And I love to do pawn attacks like these myself. | ||
