Re: Sharjah Masters 2024
So far, so good. Nineteen moves played and Shreyas is a pawn up with a healthy lead on the clock (56 minutes against 14). Still a long way from a win but a promising start.Mick Norris wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 11:36 amLichess from 12:15 I thinkLawrenceCooper wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 5:26 pm35 88 IM Royal, Shreyas 2463 3½ 3½ GM Peralta, Fernando 2573 53

Re: Sharjah Masters 2024
Game drawn by perpetual albeit black would have probably played on with more time.

Re: Sharjah Masters 2024
Pity, it looked like Shreyas had a decent position and was ahead on the clock

After 31 ... Qh5+, Shreyas can, and probably did, claim a threefold repetition since he intends 32 Kg2.LawrenceCooper wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 3:23 pmGame drawn by perpetual albeit black would have probably played on with more time.

Re: Sharjah Masters 2024
At least he did draw, and while that might not mean much now, it still does matter, since rating points are valuable too.
As for the +1 assessment in the opening; well, is that a Stockfish thing, this being the machine which specialises in inhuman defence? To my human eyes Black always had practical play for his pawn.

Re: Sharjah Masters 2024
Another excellent result, surpassing his Grand Swiss performance. Shreyas is clearly at home against 2600+ opposition and on a trajectory to being a very strong GM.LawrenceCooper wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 4:30 pmHe finished with a 2593 performance and +15 rating according to chess-results.
Nonetheless, we should not ignore the biggest star of the event, who was his 13 year old rival Ivan Zemlyanskii. One to watch!
