Analysis by IM Sagar Shah
Some of the tweets from round 8 that I liked:
9...Re8 is rather an unusual move. I don't know it, despite 30+ years experience in this variation #CarlsenAnand

10.Bg5 is the most dynamic approach. This was also played by Lalith on 2013! #CarlsenAnand

Surprised Carlsen is playing such a risky variation.No doubt he analysed it,but it's hard to account for all White's options.#CarlsenAnand

Magnus is trying to vary, every game,does not want anything forced and prepared by Anand. Wants to play practical chess #CarlsenAnand

Looks like surprise value is the main element of Carlsen's preparation with black after his loss in game 3. #CarlsenAnand

Team Carlsen had 3 days to prepare for this black game, seems they used it well! Likely the game will end peacefully soon. #CarlsenAnand

World Champion has the right to sleep #CarlsenAnand

Looks like a typical condom variation from Magnus: to be used once and thrown away #CarlsenAnand

Second day in a row "Magnus" is prepared for 20+ moves. Who is this guy and what has he done to the World Champion? #CarlsenAnand

At least with his rook on e8, Black won't be mated by Qh7 now #CarlsenAnand
— Nigel Short (@nigelshortchess) November 18, 2014
instead of 15.0-0, white could have played Ba2 idea Bb1 posing serious problems for black?

If Vishy doesn't exploit his development over the next 5 moves, he is unlikely to get an advanatge at all #CarlsenAnand #balancedstructure

Good preparation today by team Magnus, so a well deserved dull draw. The finishing line of the match is near! #exciting #CarlsenAnand
— Anish Giri (@anishgiri) November 18, 2014
#CarlsenAnand Dont agree it was good preparation by Carlsen. It was bluff which worked in this game. Guess he wont repeat it again.

Alas, I may not have any time to comment on the remaining games #CarlsenAnand . Thanks to all those who have followed me. It's been fun.
