Chessgames.com Chess Event Description
Parnu (1971)

The tournament was played in Parnu, a coastal resort town in Estonia. Thirty-two per cent of the games were drawn. Of the grandmasters, Bronstein seemed to have the least interest in winning against the tail-enders, as he proposed several short draws.
