In case you believe in zodiac signs, both Carlsen and Anand are Sagittarius. The 'Archers' are supposed to be highly optimistic, confident and intellectual. They keep shooting arrows hoping that every time they will hit the bulls' eye.
The second game also was drawn. It was a relief for Anand. He did admit that he was not fully prepared for Carlsen's Caro-Kann defense. A blunt and unexpected admission in a game that is as much psychological as it is skill-based.
Carlsen let us have a peep into his world-view. Answering a question, he said that future games do not depend on what has happened in the first two games. In other words, was he saying that Life is a Markov process?
