World Chess Championship 2024, Game 6: Nothing separates Gukesh, Ding Liren in round six as game ends in three-fold repetition draw

The Hindu  

So must Ding Liren have hoped on Sunday. At the World chess championship in Astana last year, Ding had played the opening London System in the sixth game against Ian Nepomniachtchi, and had won. He repeated that opening in the sixth game in the World title match against D. Gukesh at the World Resorts Sentosa, but could not repeat the result. This was the third successive draw in the match, after Gukesh won the third game to equalise. He also may have scored a psychological point in the sixth game when he let pass the opportunity for a draw, with repetition of moves.
