The last day of the tournament went exactly as Sheva had thought it would. Well… At least, for him, in this case.
In two of the last games here, he was paired against two veterans who weren't that active anymore, and the pairing was only because he had no opponents anymore who could get to his level. Of course, Sheva would never show any mercy here.
While he had basically secured the ticket to the next World Cup, the boy didn't want to get any quick draw in the last two rounds. No, facing a lower-rated opponent, the loss of rating would be quite massive, and while he could still afford it, given his rating increase in this tournament, the boy was too stingy for that.
'Anyway, why would I waste my rating to save time? I cannot go back home quickly, anyway, and I can take a rest as much as I want tomorrow. Let's just be willful today and crush all of my opponents!'
At least, that was what he thought, and the boy delivered everything perfectly.
