Rapid i blic turnir
8.12.2023.
Memorijal Vugara Gashimova nije razočarao ljubitelje šaha, jer je prvog dana takmičenja pokazao uzbudljive partije. Nakon prvog dana rapid turnira, azerbejdžanski velemajstor Nijat Abasov nalazi se na vrhu tabele sa 5 poena (2 poena za pobjedu, 1 za remi). Prate ga Vidit, Mamedov i Erigaisi sa po 4 poena.
Abasov ne samo da sam vodi na turniru, već ostavlja utisak agresivnom i kreativnom igrom. S druge strane, na dnu tabele nalaze se iskusni šahista Boris Gelfand kao i Richard Rapport (koji se još nije uigrao) sa po jednim osvojenim poenom. Iako prve tri partije nisu išle onako kako su planirali, preostalih šest kola pruža im priliku za preokret i povratak u igru.
Danas nas očekuju još tri uzbudljiva kola rapid turnira, obećavajući još lijepih partija na ovom takmičenju koje se završava sutra, a zatim nastavlja brzopoteznim turnirom.
Za pobjedu u rapid partiji dobija se 2 poena u tabeli, za remi 1 poen.
