NANJING #7

Carlsen and Anand into yet another Berlin Wall.

CARLSEN MOVES HIS KING TO =g2= ONE MOVE TOO SOON:


29.Kg2, when
29.Qg4 first, would elicit 29...Kh8, and THEN 30. Kg2 is fine and dandy.

A novelty from Black on move 11....Nce7 rather than 11. Re8 as per usual.

On Move 18 Anand played 18...Nf8, when a kingside sortie starting with 18....Bh3, might have been an interesting idea and slightly more fruitful, although the engine perceived march of the a-pawn from White might have been mere pie-in-the-sky.
Interesting though.




WHY IS THERE ALWAYS SUCH A BLIND HURRY TO PLAY MOVE 41????????


Anand, with 12 mins left on the clock, plays a daft move 40...Kg7, when 40....Qe7 would have done nicely for him to get through the time portal.

Then White, with 20 mins to spare after he already played move 40, now doesn't bother to take advantage of Black's less than perfect move, and goes for 41.b3????
when 41.Rh3 would have been great.

Why that hurry after move 40?
Why don't they go for a quick walk around the corridors, or the room even?

I'm fed up.
I expect near perfection from the great.
Especially when they are not under any pressure.

If I can see it, so should they.

I'm out of here.
Not worth wasting sunshine for.




Notation/game later.
Possibly.
