        Korchnoi’s eyes have vacated his head in the picture! Scary!

        It would be tempting to call that a “grandmaster draw”.

        When was the latest time Korchnoi offered a draw as early as the 6th move?

        The first seven games were great fights! I wish they would have continued but perhaps they were exhausted and decided to end the match even.

        The games are getting longer as the match proceeds. Will they make it?
