Alexis VS Ben. After Round 13

Ben held on to 4 games lead

From game 12 to 13, spectators saw the Singaporean superstar played the white pieces twice in a roll, yet Ben managed a win and a draw out of the two games. Game 13 can be described as unambitious by the leader, holding a 4-0 lead he would only need to draw 9 of the remaining 12 games to lift the SuperBowl Title. Ben did just that and went home with half a point in the bag.

The notation of game 13 is as followed
