    Carlsen could be in trouble with FIDE for not attending the press conference. Sounds like he went into a sulk because he lost fair and square.

    Hi Steve,

    Carlsen attended the press conference but a journalist caught Karjakin
    outside the room, Carlsen spent ages waiting on the press conference to start.

    He sat their having just a lost a game by playing on in a drawn position
    with the whole room staring at him ready with their silly inane questions.

    "What does it feel like to lose a game of chess?"

    I've likened to a corpse laying on the autopsy table waiting to be
    dissected bit by bit and the pieces fed to a flock of vultures.

    He got up and walked out.

    Unless he appeals he loses 10% of his prize. If it had been me I would have lost
    the 10% and the $500 it would have cost to replace the chess set and digital clock!

    Why did he play on?

    He did not want to be the one grovelling a draw in game 8 after 7 draws
    and all the bad press that had attracted. (just my theory.)

    No he lost by playing badly and as Karjakin pointed out, its better to play well than to play with white.
