You can only label this match as a snooze if you have no fucking idea of chess.I think it's unfortunate how it's going, the match just lacks romance. Compare that to Kasparov breaking Karpov mentally by forcing a fuckton of draws when Karpov just needed one win to secure the title. That was at least dramatic, this is simply a borefest.
But you know what he means. He probably just checks the score and expected something to happen at some point. I'm not surprised many people consider 11 remis in 11 matches a dissappointment.
It's also a new record in consecutive draws in a World Championship, has been since game 9 I think.
There was a ninth straight draw today in the match between World Champion Magnus Carlsen and American challenger Fabiano Caruana. This sets a record for the longest streak of split points to kick off a World Championship match, breaking the previous record set by Anand and Kasparov in 1995.
