Kibitzer's Corner
Jan-07-11  AnalyzeThis: Horowitz relates that after 12 moves or so, Reshevsky offered a draw. Had Evans accepted, this would have secured at least a tie for first for Reshevsky.

Instead, Evans refused with a loud "NO".

Reshevsky then goes on to win a fine game, and the title of US champion, outright - not bad for a man in his late 50's.
