| MichaelHalliwell: Eleventh Game part of tie breaker

| |
| MichaelHalliwell: It should have been easy to guess that Nigel Short would expect an opponent needing only a draw to be attracted to the French Defense Exchange Variation, where www.eudesign.com notes: "White's K pawn removes Black's QP and offers an exchange, leading to "dull equality and ... |
