At a brief glance, today's opening is very interesting to me tooJustinHorton wrote: ↑Thu Jan 09, 2020 10:07 amToday we have one of those Slavs that turn into a QGA, this seems to be a theme match for the kind of openings I like and other people find boring.

Some drama in game five as Goryachnika wins the exchange for a pawn, Ju having started well but seeming to go astray once her preparation was exhausted.

Re: Women's World Championship Match 2020
105 move draw today
Having previously had draws of 97 & 85 moves, it certainly is a tough match

Seems like Goryachkina as the younger player has chosen a deliberate sitzfleisch policy. In at least two of the three marathons she was the one grinding on in a dead position.Mick Norris wrote: ↑Sun Jan 12, 2020 1:06 pm105 move draw today

Couple of hours into game eight and Goryachnika has a nice edge

Hour and a half and fifteen moves into game nine and it's a pretty lively Nimzowitsch-Larsen with 1 Nf3. (Who got turned over very badly in one of those the other day?)

Re: Women's World Championship Match 2020
Quite a fluctuating game; not sure if Ju has enough to win?
