That is all of the games of the World Championship. drawn 6-6.
Next will be rapid/blitz tie-break games taking place on Wednesday.

Wednesday is Carlsen’s birthday, If he loses this on his birthday
he will never be able to hear the ‘Happy Birthday’ song again.

  Not much to do in the last game, both players had settled/agreed this would get sorted out in the rapid/blitz games.

  Nothing to do. I had the carton ready and was all ready to note up the game...then I saw what was happening.
