And we’re off with 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4. We’re into the Sicilian and it’s not the Rossolimo. And with 4. … Nf6 5. Nc3 e5, we’re into the Sveshnikov variation. This is the same line as Game 8.
Hello and welcome to Game 10 of the World Chess Championship between Norway’s Magnus Carlsen and Fabiano Caruana of the United States. We’re looking at a 4½-all deadlock after nine games in 13 days, no closer to a verdict than when we started. We have, however, borne witness to a bit of history: The nine straight draws represent the longest streak of games to open a match without a decisive result in the recognized 132-year history of world championship matches.
