It often happens that a player is so fond of his advantageous position that he is reluctant to transpose to a winning endgame.

🔸 FIDE Women's World Championship 2018
🔸Today in Game 2
✴️ Before the match, the two players had only played 16 classical games against each other. Tan had won three vs. two for Ju, and 10 draws. Today Ju equalized the score, and grabbed the lead with a win with the black pieces.
Playing 1...e5 for the first time against the English, it was her time to surprise and it worked well. She equalized comfortably and then got a strong initiative in an endgame with heavy pieces.
Tan again defended well, initially, but in time trouble she stumbled in a double-rook endgame and then came one tempo short.
