πŸ’’ Ju Wenjun
πŸ’’Chinese chess Grandmaster


♦️ Ju Wenjun is a Chinese chess player who holds the FIDE title of Grandmaster. She will compete as challenger in the Women's World Chess Championship 2018.

πŸ”Έ Country: China
πŸ”Έ Born: 31 January 1991 (age 27) Shanghai, China
πŸ”Έ Title: Grandmaster
πŸ”Έ FIDE rating: 2572 (January 2018)
πŸ”Έ (No. 2 ranked woman in the December 2016 FIDE World Rankings)
πŸ”Έ Peak rating: 2604 (March 2017)

♦️At the Chess Olympiad (Women) (2010), Wenjun won individual silver on board 2 and her first GM norm. She won her 2nd GM norm at the 1st Hangzhou Women's GM Tournament (2011), and her 3rd GM norm came with her second place (with 7/11) at the FIDE Women's Grand Prix Nalchik (2011). She produced 3 more GM norms before her application for the grandmaster title was forwarded to FIDE: at the Women Grand Prix Jermuk (2012), the Dubai Open in 2013 and the FIDE Women's Grand Prix Lopota (2014). The date of effect of her title would therefore be 21 October 2011, the final round of the Nalchik event, as she had already reached a rating of 2500 a couple of years previously.

βšͺ️Maghsoodloo,Parham (2572)
⚫️Molaei,Mohammadamin (2327)
πŸ”ΈΒ½-Β½
πŸ“˜ 73.Kf7??
Parham has made a blunder in a winning position.
(73.Ne6! +- Now, White's plan for the win:
1- Removing the black pawn.
2- Moving the rook to the 6th rank.
3- Transferring the knight to f6 with maneuver Ng5-h7-f6.
4- Retreating the rook to 7th rank.
And the black king will be caught in a mating net).
73...Ra7 74.RΓ—a7= stalemate.

βšͺ️Korevand,Sina (2143)
⚫️Pourramezanali,Amirreza (2524)
πŸ”Έ0-1
πŸ“˜ 23.f4?
The white's rush to launch a kingside attack costs him the game.
It would have been better to improve the knight's position to d3 via b2-square.

A very interesting move that has been played twice in 1997 and 2010.

πŸ“• 15.Ng1!
Great stuff! White declares a fight back on the key light squares. He prepares f3 to cover the e4 square, while the re-routing of the knight via e2 is surprisingly rich in prospects.
15.Bf1?! Bxf1 16.Kxf1 Ne4 Black is better.
15.Ne5? Nxe5 16.dxe5 Ne4.

πŸ“˜16.Bxe5!
Tarrasch left us one of the wisest bits of advice: It’s not what is removed from the board that matters, but what remains. After the exchange on e5, the bishop on g7 becomes impotent.
