A good day to be Black

I didn't want to give the erroneous impression that the avoidance of draw death in chess would/should unfairly prejudice Black; this in fact was proven wrong by the latest Tata Steel Masters round:

Round ten - Masters

Group A: Round 10 - Saturday Jan. 25
Anish Giri - Sergey Karjakin
½-½
Leinier Dominguez - Levon Aronian
0-1
Loek van Wely - Boris Gelfand
0-1
Pentala Harikrishna - Wesley So
½-½
Fabiano Caruana - Arkadij Naiditsch
0-1
Richard Rapport - Hikaru Nakamura
0-1
