The system set up by F.I.D.E. ... Insures that there will always be a Russian world champion... The Russians arranged it that way.
Bobby Fischer

There was open collusion between the Russian players. They agreed ahead of time to draw the games they played against each other. Every time they drew they gave each other half a point.
