Uri is referring to James's 78.5-35.5, not the SSDF 3.5-3.5.
Even if he was talking SSDF there is certainly nothing "fishy" or "corrupt"
about Fritz beating Shredder due to advantageous booklines.

>>>"Why did they stop after 7 games?"
I think they didn't stop, and by the time of the release of the next list that
match of 40 games will be completed.
