Two very dull draws.
The last two championship matches were decided by annand blunders.
So conservative now it will probably take the same to decide it.

The marathon games against annand Carlsen forced a win. He will be looking for a quick draw with black today no doubt.

Just looked, Norwegian TV station NRK2 have got 4 hours blocked out for it tomorrow night when it resumes, no doubt they overrun to show it until the end.

NRK is the equivalent of the BBC. Fucking hell.

It rather defeats the object.
The series should be much longer, as ever it was to avoid this.
