The Third Game of The Match Between Res-Fruit and Hiarcs 3 ended in a draw leaving the match without a decisive result
the current match score is 1.5-1.5
Game Three featured some sparkling endgame play on both sides..
those watching along mentioned that at a certain point near the end their Engines declared the position was a Nabilov Tablebase draw...or is that a Tabilov Navelbase Draw?
anyway ..
Game 3 saw Res Fruit with the White pieces and in book until move..12
the game was very close throughout with the Res showing PV's of less then +/-.5 for most of the game
