The WC used to be 24 games, now it’s just twelve. That leaves open stall tactics, or rather, draw tactics like Sergei Karjakin used against MC in 2016. Draws can be used in a match the same way North Carolina basketball players stalled against national champion U.C.L.A. bringing the N.C.A.A. to order a play clock to count down time of possession, limiting the time of possession of a team without taking a shot.
Evidently a GM can plan what games to draw a priori and what games to use dynamic computer prep in to try to win. Try to win one or two and draw the remainder? Possibly there is some optimal computer game theory model that could formulate the best strategy they may use.
Toward the end of an appearance on the Dick Cavett Show, Robert James Fischer was asked a question by Dick; would Spassky draw every game if he could because if the match were drawn after 24 games he would retain the title, Fischer replied;” Yes, if I let him”.
Caruana seem to be playing well enough, yet so many top GMs seem to be underplaying; Wesley So, Levon Aronian etc. It is difficult to know if MC is really not so dominant as when he was 2885, or if he is shamming like a champ might to promote a contest and make it seem close and interesting to fans.
Some people expect MC to be the only human to join the chess engine plus 3000 ranks and Caruana to play as abstractly interesting games as in the 2014 Sinquefeld when he was unbeaten and won seven in a row. Who is shamming and who isn’t can’t be known until after the match. Caruana has a chance and so does the plan to send a cloud of small life seeking satellites to Alpha Centauri that would arrive in 30 or 40 years traveling at a quarter of the speed of light.year.
