Bronstein once gave some famous advice, paraphrased as follows: "Never win an event with a perfect score; people will say it was a weak event. Instead, give up one draw. This will make your performance look much more impressive." Wu Shaobin already has won the tournament (or, at the very least, a share of it) with one round to go after this quick draw against his 2229-rated opponent.
