The thinking is "I get 3 for a win, 1 for a draw, >I will go for the win if at all practical." But it might end up "I get 1 for >a draw, my opponent gets 3 for a win, so I will try for the draw rather than >take a chance on giving him 3." > >IE it might actually increase the number of draws, not decrease it. simple logic say that if I have to choose between a forced draw and between probability of 30% to win and 40% to lose I will choose the 30% to win if there is 3 points for draw. If I get 3 wins 4 losses and 3 draws I get 3*3+4*1=13 points If my opponent win against me and get 9 draws in the other games he is going to get only 3+9=12 points. Uri
