Rd. 4 - GM Fabiano Caruana vs. GM Viswanathan Anand

Written and annotated by GM Alejandro Ramirez.

 

Caruana faced a nice novelty from Anand in his game, and the Indian player equalized effortlessly. However, some strange strategical decisions put his game in danger. Caruana pushed forward, but it was not enough. Black’s position was just strong enough to hold a blockade. Caruana went for some tactics, but it resulted in a dead drawn endgame.
