Anand useless, Carlsen is Champion FWCM Sochi 2014


Well, today’s game round 2 in the FIDE World Chess Championship 2014 at Sochi proves it.  Vishwanathan Anand, and since he won the Challenger’s title, any other Chess Grand Master, is not in the same class as Magnus Carlsen.

From now on, the rest of the games in the FIDE Chess Championship Sochi 2014 will be interesting for only one reason - whether Vishwanathan Anand can hold on with White or will be manage to lose even playing White pieces.

Though his position was tricky at 34th move, the decision to move the pawn to h5 sealed Anand’s fate.  ‘Probably exhausted after a long defence for the last 15-20 moves and under time pressure Anand gives up’, says IM Tihomir Yanev.

Here is the simulation, in YouTube.  The PGN file has been updated (contains both r1 and r2) and can be downloaded for FREE from here.
