Well, it wasn't like Sheva didn't believe the arbiter here, but he definitely thought that the man was being dramatic. After all, Gukesh was also doing the same yesterday, trying to scare the shit out of him while saying to get ready for Arjun, while in reality, Arjun himself didn't really put up a threat at all.
'No, there is no way I could get fooled twice.' He shook his head quickly.
However, after checking the phone, he was so dumbfounded by the other results. It seemed, besides his game, the other three matchups ended up with a winner in each one of them.
Peter Svidler managed to get a full point against Nils Grandelius after fighting for more than two hours, while Gukesh and Vincent Keymer were also able to snatch a win out of Boris Gelfand and Jorden Van Foreest, respectively. Somehow, with only one round left to play, this made the competition unpredictable, as no one really knew who was going to win.
