Still time for some decided games, but I could be wrong here. We might end up with another 50 draws.

Wow, 18 out of 18 games drawn now. I thought that chess960 led to significantly fewer draws than normal chess, it clearly does in human play and in CCRL testing. But apparently at this level it just doesn't make enough difference. Chess 960 (FRC) may be the solution to preparation, but it apparently is not the solution to the draw problem. I was a strong proponent of 960, but I may have to adjust my opinion.
Komodo rules!

Both engines show an advantage to white currently in game 23 but probably still drawn.
