When you turn down a draw offer, only to lose on time | Averin vs Srinath | World Rapid 2022

[@ricardo.tecnicodoibge]

Averin is stepping in to replace Hans Niemman as the most controversial player of the month 😂😂😂

[@neffdog564]

He’s young. When you’re young, you can’t control your emotions like a grown adult.

[@keeperofthelight9681]

Naaaaah Hans is always be something

[@bamohrman]

That kid is an idiot. Glad he lost this way.

[@aarondavies6823]

He is super competitive and that’s a good thing. This kid is driven. He is not filming himself do TikTok dances all day. I hope people understand that most kids don’t care about ANYTHING like he cares about chess. And kids are emotional and need emotional regulation. I hope he has someone in his life that models the appropriate behaviour. I’m willing to bet he figures it out and this ends up being a major learning experience for him.

If Srinath offered the draw to Averin which was declined, why did he not "claim" the draw after the 3 fold repetition?

Amazingly Srinath could have claimed a draw by threefold repetition, but instead it seems that he chose to continue, possibly assuming there was some chance for Averin to make a mistake? At 0:19, 0:41, and 1:05 the exact same position occurs, always white to move. At 1:05 Srinath seems to signal this to Averin, like saying "I can claim draw right now but I will not, I will leave the decision to you and you can claim draw now if you want".
