The Importance of Abiding by the Contracts

I think despite the fact that the position was still more or less okay, I think that move was just absolutely horrendous. 94 was the beginning. And his next game against Maxime was his worst game in the tournament. Everything was going in his favor. He had Maxime pretty much on the ropes and he drifted terribly. After that, it was just all downhill. Playing a World Championship match is no easy feature. But kudos to both him and Dink for abiding by the contracts and playing in Romania because they could have easily said: "We'll accept some sort of fine and then we're not going to play"
