From what I can make of it, this is something they did to run during halftime of the national broadcasts back in the late 70's. I watched a little of Paul Westphal's match with Super John Williamson, it was a bit more entertaining. I can only assume in the early rounds, the better players were a bit conservative, simply trying to win.
I do believe the Pistol had a bit more in his repetoire than he used in the first match.
