  offramp: The good people of Freiberg saw three draws in this WC Match. Game 6 was on the 18th April (a 60-move thriller), this game was on Friday, 20th April and game 8 was on 22nd April (a 63-move thriller).

But none of that has anything to do with why this game was a short draw:

Game 7 was played on Adolf Hitler's 45th birthday.

May-09-20  RookFile: Excellent insight, offramp. Thinking about Hitler sends chills down my spine.
