I think that the match is just started (also if Carlsen seems already tired :shock:) . Too fast draws. If Nepo will win the first game the challenge will become much more interesting. If it will lose 1 game, the mach will become really boring, because Carlsen will easily control all remaining games, especially during endgames.

They kept on saying that if GM Nepo would have played 20. c4 ! that Carlsen was going to be in Big trouble, well lets see if Komodo Dragon 2.5.1 continue the game. https://chessbase.in/news/World-Chess-C ... sen-Game-5

Komodo has Carlsen winning by 9.15 at the moment, but this game broke the longest previous World championship game ever played between Korchnoi Vs Karpov in 1974 124 Moves.

Regarding the game of today, it looks like the losing move was 130.- ..., Qe6, where only 130.-..., Qb1 and 130.- ..., Qc2 draw:

This game will be remembered forever. Both played really, really well once reached the first time control... until this mistake.

Regarding the game of today, it looks like the losing move was 130.- ..., Qe6, where only 130.-..., Qb1 and 130.- ..., Qc2 draw:

This game will be remembered forever. Both played really, really well once reached the first time control... until this mistake.

Also Italians GMs Godena and Garcia Palermo confirmed that on Chess.com
Nepo is incredibly very strong but luckily, not a robot with all 7 men tablebases inserted in his brain and Carlsen is ...Carlsen :D
Now will be very hard for Nepo... :?

Looks like Carlsen did what he is famous for: torture his opponent in the endgame until he cracks.
