Subject: Draw At Move 28?

Go up one level in this thread


It's been over an hour since Ernst posted the position below, and there are no
updates from this position on the website.

Maybe they've agreed a draw?

Seems strange from both players perspective to have a draw here...

For Rebel, because the team would want to work the opponent hard - like the DB
team did with GK.

For John van der Wiel because he seems to be doing a good job of making a monkey
out of Rebel (unless he recognises a drawn position - or a position in which
neither player can move safely).

Maybe the commentator is having his afternoon tea break?
