  perfidious: To be sure, White has no serious winning chances once rooks come off, but there was no harm in playing on a little while.
Jun-18-14  Petrosianic: Imagine that it's reached the point where people have to make excuses for <not> agreeing to GM draws.
Aug-17-16  Howard: Actually, Korchnoi did have some slight winning chances here, according to Kasparov's MGP V. He analyzes the last 15 moves of this game.
