Kibitzer's Corner
Mar-10-20  Ulhumbrus: It may be that Konstantinopolsky agreed to a draw partly for the following reasons.

1. If White plays h5, Black can close the game with ...g5.

2. If White plays g5, Black has the square covered too many times.

3. If White tries to prepare g5 by moving his knights away they control no lobger the square f5 so that Black can answer the advance g5 with the advance ...f5.
