“All for the same score [ottelupisteet] should be renewed or not by anyone. “
According to Carlsen, the current rule makes the World Cup tournament “amateur-like”.
Carlsen received support for his views in the tournament from sixth-place finisher in the United States Hikaru Nakamuralta.
“The change from the 15th round to the 13th round of the Fast World Chess Tournament was strange, but the replay rules for the‘ world championship ’are already ridiculous,” Nakamura wrote In Twiter.
