Several options. If the outcome is clear, adjudication would work. If not, the next round can be delayed a bit until the outcome is clearer. With this many rounds, the next round could start by pairing as though the game in question will end as the scores suggest, because even if that is wrong, there are enough rounds to "correct" things. That is one danger of increments. Technically the game can last all day.
