1 1 month 1 1 day, the semi-final of the 25th LG Cup Korea Japan Chess Competition passed cyber warfare. In this match, China's chess player Ke Jie reversed and defeated South Korea's fourth-ranked Bian Xiangyi, while South Korea's third-ranked Shen Min defeated Park Jun-hwan, who ranked second in the civil war. In fact, this is Ke Jie's first time to reach the LG Cup final, which is of great significance. It is worth mentioning that the final between Ke Jie and South Korean 99-year-old rookie Shen Min will be held in February next year, which is worth looking forward to.
So, how did Ke Jie do in the competition? In fact, Ke Jie's performance in this game is very good. Ke Jie played against South Korea's fourth-ranked Bian Xiangyi. Both of them were born in 1997, and Bian Xiangyi was born in 1 year, about half a year older than Ke Jie. In this game, Bian Xiangyi took the lead in black chess. At first, Ke Jie's white chess situation was very good. But in the middle period, Ke Jie was caught by his opponent, stormed successfully and died. The situation became unfavorable.
Of course, Ke Jie's rich competition experience played a role. At a disadvantage, he first abandoned his son to stabilize the situation, and then used the basic time of both sides to run out, entered the tense moment of 40 seconds countdown, and stormed his opponent Taro. Bian Xiangyi didn't make the best response in actual combat. Ke Guo Jie broke his hand and stormed, and the winning percentage of both sides suddenly reversed. In the end, Ke Jie successfully defeated his opponent Tyrone and won the middle set. It is worth mentioning that in the other semi-final, the third-ranked South Korea -yong (1999) defeated the second-ranked Park Jun-hwan (1993) in the White China Game. In fact, this is Yong's first time to enter the final stage of the World Series. From here, we can see that Shen Min can beat Park Ting-heng, which shows that he is also very strong.
It is worth mentioning that the match between Ke Jie and Yong will be held in Sanfang Chess, which is expected to be held in February next year. In fact, the 25th LG Cup Chosun Ilbo Chess Championship was hosted by Chosun Ilbo and sponsored by LG. Each side of the game is 3 hours, 5 times and 40 seconds.
