The World Chess Championship 2018 has been an enormous amount to take in – however much of a superfan you are.
By our (rough) calculations, there have been 637 moves and around 48 hours of chess in total.
Not to mention novelties, shocks, surprises and the odd celebrity.
So to make it easier to get a handle on, we’ve boiled each game down to its bare bones in our quick round-by-round summary of everything that has happened so far:
Round 1
White: Caruana
Opening: Sicilian Rossolimo
Result: Draw.

Moves: 115
Length of game: Seven hours
Flash verdict: A marathon grind leaves Carlsen kicking himself after missing a winning opportunity with 34… Qe5. He nearly became the first champion to win Game 1 of a world title match as black in 37 years.

Result: Draw.

Moves: 49

Round 4
White: Carlsen
Opening: English Opening
Result: Draw.

Moves: 34
Length of game: Less than three hours
Flash verdict: Not much going on here in this 34-move draw, although Carlsen did offer a novelty with 11. b4, played in less than three hours. Much more interesting was what was happening off the board with Caruana’s YouTube controversy.

Result: Draw.

Moves: 34
Length of game: Three-and-a-quarter hours

Result: Draw.

Moves: 40
