Excellent move by Quang Liem

After losing to Gukesh Domaraju in the first game, Abdusatorov won white chess in the second game and decided to defeat Guanglian. The Uzbek player decided to test in a complex position in the middle, a move deemed wrong. But Quang Liem needs accurate calculations to find the only move to help him win.

In the players' intuition, the post-H6 country is not easily recognized, because after the white projects the F6 code, the black will have to lose the rear. In this case, the first action to consider is just to get a code to catch the car. But after that, White can keep the tie with the same water.

Quang Liem reckons he is fortunate that this momentous moment is 41 nations, just after an additional 50 minutes of thought on both sides. Thanks to this, Vietnam's top-ranked players spend a lot of time calculating options. "At first I was going to catch the car with the code or push it to E3," he said after the game. "These options probably took me up to 20 minutes. I only saw the post-H6 country a few minutes before I left. I was ready and didn't see a way out for White."

France's oldest chess magazine, Europe Echecs, rated Quang Liem's post-H6 countries as two exclamation points. When experts comment on chess, one exclamation point represents good chess and two exclamation points represent good chess.

Just before he was arrested again in 46 countries, the Uzbek prodigy surrendered. Excellent move to bring Quang Liem back to the top of Biel Grandmaster, 1.5 points more than second-place Andrey Esipenko. The 31-year-old said he was pleased with his performance last time out.

In the third round of the standard flag, Guanglian returned to the White Army to meet Indian prodigy Gukesh. If he wins Guanglian, Gukesh will reach the milestone of super grandmaster even if he is only 16 years old.
