Our distinguished commentator IM Tihomir Yanev provides live commentary on selected games of TATA STEEL Master 2015.

Round 8: Jobava - Carlsen
Today I comment the game between Baadur Jobava and the World Champion Magnus Carlsen, two of the most entertaining players at Tata Steel (both have 3 draws combined). The Georgian grandmaster has been faithful to his aggressive and creative style thus far, so I expect plenty of action today. Probably you do remember this game back in 2010?... See more

Our aim will be to provide LIVE commentary on most of the games between Anand and Carlsen in their fight for the title of World Champion.

Our commentator today is IM Tihomir Yanev.

Round 9: Carlsen - Anand
As we are approaching the final game, it looks like Carlsen has full control of the match, but it would be quite interesting if Anand (who is a great specialist in rapid chess) manages to level the score in the next few days. Today for some reason Anand avoided Sicilian (which might be his best effort to play a sharper position) and we'll most likely head into Ruy Lopez. Being a point ahead, Carlsen doesn't mind playing Berlin Defence again. Last time he played a "risk-free" position and he hopes for the same scenario today... See more

Round 6: Carlsen - Anand
Today I will provide live coverage of Game #6 of the World Championship Match. A bit surprisingly, Anand won immediately after losing in Round 2 and his performance has been quite impressive since then. Would Carlsen regain the lead again?... See more

Live commentary on Round 2: Carlsen-Anand 2014

Official broadcast

Our aim will be to provide LIVE commentary on most of the games between Anand and Carlsen in their fight for the title of World Champion.

Our commentator today is the young IM Tihomir Yanev sharing his thoughts about the round 2 game.

Round 2: Carlsen - Anand
As we saw yesterday, players are quite familiar with each other and they went straight to the action by move 1. Now Carlsen has white pieces, so don't expect any popular opening but a rare and complicated position instead. 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 Nf6 4. d3 This is the common way to keep more pieces on the board and it perfectly suits Carlsen's style... See more
