Almost noneif one doesn't blunder, computer gives material advantage but rook and pawn endgames are hard to not end in a draw if both players are strong. | ||

There are standard endgames that the commentators are familiar with that always end in draws, so they can say it with some confidence. | ||

Originally I thought they're just recording a history of the moves, but what use would that be, in terms of analysis and such. | ||

Originally I thought they're just recording a history of the moves, but what use would that be, in terms of analysis and such. They're required to. Norwegian commentators talked briefly about some former pro who was quite loud about it being unnecessary, so he'd just put some nonsensical scribble down each time. | ||

Originally I thought they're just recording a history of the moves, but what use would that be, in terms of analysis and such. They are each just recording the moves, at the end they will sign each copy and hand them to an official. It isn't for analysis, but for official record keeping. | ||
