A bit of a lame first game of the championship. The players were probably just warming up.

Somewhat of a interesting opening for Carlsen. It might’ve thrown Anand off. If I was playing black, I’d have taken a draw, also.

I remember way back when Bobby Fisher played for the championship in Iceland..the whole county was hooked on chess..what was the guy’s name... Shelby something..the world’s first chess broadcaster...the moves would come in over the AP wire, and he’d post them on the board..tens of millions watched..
