- manquer 5y agoNot playing for the win aggressivly enough ends up becoming playing for a draw ? . At the world championship you would want to play conservatively , defensively and wait for a mistake to strike, there is a lot to lose if you try to force a mistake and play more aggressively. It is not cheating or against the spirit of the game to do so, world championship matches have almost always been filled with draws.
