GM Wesley So 6th Game: Draw vs Tomashevsky

GM Wesley So ended his 6th round game with a draw in the Young Grandmaster Tournament (YGT) of the 43rd Biel International Chess Festival in Bern, Switzerland.

Wesley  played with the black pieces against Tomashevsky of Russia who sports a higher rating. They ended the game in peace after 24 moves.

The joint-force between ChessBomb and Chessdom has given the global chess community something to look forward to (and learn from) every game day. With Stockfish' computer analysis, the viewers from all over the globe is treated to a high-quality super GM-strength like view of what's behind each move. If you are not color-blind and can read chess notation, your in for a wonderful time.

FIDE claims they are "setting new standards and marketing of big chess events"  in their website but I reckon the joint force is a step or two ahead of the game.
