#TataSteelChess update, round 8

@DGukesh vs. @rpraggnachess 

Pragg playing white opens 1. e4 e5 2. King's Knight, normal variation.  Ruy Lopez, countered by Berlin Defense. 

Middle game = hyper accurate position and trading, Gukesh well ahead on time, but game close to 50 min bonus.  

I gave slight advantage to Gukesh for retaining a rook and bishop, opposed to Pragg's rook and knight, but this this game was locked up, and they agreed to a draw, both players cheerful and gracious 🙂
