That's a great analogy. I haven't seen Carlsen say it was risky to keep playing, the only quote I've seen is: > “I wasn’t in a mood to find the punch,” Carlse

That's a great analogy. I haven't seen Carlsen say it was risky to keep playing, the only quote I've seen is: > “I wasn’t in a mood to find the punch,” Carlsen said by way of explanation after the game[0].
