    Anand's chess career was sandwiched between probably the 2 best players ever - Kaspaov and Carlsen. Even then, to his credit, he became the world champion 5 times that too in multiple formats and really dominated for a few years..

    Anand is one of The Last Greatest Classic player who grew up without Chess Engines. Today's modern players remember moves from engines and copy paste in their games; Where as Anand create magic on the board..
    Do you guys know that Anand was far ahead of his contemporaries in his native India. He surpassed the rest of the junior players in the country at a very early age and was already dominating the top adult players in his early teens. There was no one around that was strong enough to coach him. Nowadays, with computers and the internet, this is less important. But back in the 70s and 80s, that really made a difference. He was and even today so strong that he dominated the modern super Grandmasters who played as brilliant as the Engines with ease..
    He is a super Grandmaster and former World Champion - he is Very very good at all aspects of chess. Generally he is Considered a strong tactical player but he’s so accurate that he plays positionally until his opponnets err.. He is modern version of Paul Murphy a super legend..

May be Carlsen and Kasparov has proven to be tougher than him to beat, Anand can sit back and proudly say that no other player has more fan following than him, simply because he was born in a country of more than a billion people and has been an inspiration to many to follow his path. Dont forget that he is the first grandmaster of India and now the country has crossed 64, and this man had played a tremendous single handed role in that. What a great player and proud of you !!!

    Is Nf5 needed at 10:15? If Kh6, Qh3+ anyway and f5 is guarded by the queen. If knight remains at d4 it blocks black queen from attacking g1

    Well even more beautiful in the first game is what Anand played just before Bg6. It is a pity you left it out!
