Aug-16-16 | | pinoymaster77: Correct me if Im wrong, but PHI never had a World Juniors champ? Pagkaalam ko Banjo Barcenilla won the Asian Juniors before. On WGM norms, Im not sure if 1 or 2 na. Roughly 1 was from overseas event and not sure if nakakuha WGM norm dun sa breakout performance in NCC Finals / BOGM 2014? Under FIDE Handbook ba, for a FIDE event like the WJCC is 6.5/9 or 7/9 enough for a WGM norm? |
|
Aug-16-16 | | Pulo y Gata: GM Nelson Mariano once won the Asian Jr crown, if memory serves me right. But yes, no World Jr crown for PHI, AFAIK. |
|
Aug-16-16 | | Pulo y Gata: If I'm not mistaken, winning the World Jr crown gives the winner an automatic GM title. That's the case for the men's WJC; I'm not sure if the winner gets GM or WGM title in women's WJC. |

Aug-17-16 | | cro777: In round 9 Frayna drew with the black pieces against the top seed WGM Saduakassova Dinara (2423) from Kazakhstan. It was important not to lose this game. The Queen's Gambit accepted is one of the most reliable ways for Black to achieve this goal. Saduakassova opted for the Queen’s Gambit Accepted endgame (8.dxc5). Frayna missed her winning chances in a double rook endgame: Saduakassova – Frayna. Position after 29.Rg3
 click for larger viewHere Frayna missed a clear win (she played 29…g6).
In rook endgames time is an important factor. It was not necessary to defend the g7-pawn, far-advanced pawns are the decisive factor here: 29…b3! 30. Rxg7 (30. Rb1 g6 31. Re3 d4 32. Re7 Rc8) 30... Rxb2 31. Rb7 d4

Aug-17-16 | | gokusano: Sayang. Anyway, she's still leading the tournament. With four rounds to go she has a good chance of winning it. Thanx for the analysis cro777, you are a great help for us here. Go janelle go, go go! |

Aug-17-16 | | Virgil A: That was the top seed she almost beat. |

Aug-17-16 | | pinoymaster77: Here's the round 9 recap from WJCC site, it mentions WGM norm for WIM Dinara despite the loss, but how about for WIM Frayna who has much higher 7pts after 9 games ? Black Wednesday as Xiong beats Maghsoodloo, and Karthikeyan loses ˆ@August 18, 2016
It was a black Wednesday at the top tables as Parham Maghsoodloo lost to USA¡¦s GM Jeffrey Xiong, while GM Murali Karthikeyan of India lost to Polish IM Nasuta Grzegorz, whose Sicilian from the black side ended up triumphing. Natusa Grzegorz
Therefore, Xiong now leads the leaderboard with 7.5/9, while Grzegorz is following him closely on 7.0/9. Indian hope Karthikeyan is left stranded at 6.0/9 Joining him at the same score is GM Aravindh Chithambaram, who managed to beat country-mate Arjun Kalyan. Seven players made 9-game IM norms ¡X Parham Maghsoodloo, Xu Yinglun, Irakli Beradze, Xu Yi, Bozidar Ivekovic, Harsha Bharathakoti, Srijit Paul and Rakesh Kumar Jena. Odisha¡¦s local star FM Rakesh Kumar Jena brought in the much-needed cheer for the local camp with his second IM norm in his career. Alina Bivol
The girls¡¦section saw some fireworks as the Russian derby at the first table between WIM Alina Bivol and WIM Dinara Dordzhieva ended in a win for Alina, who was playing with the black pieces.The top seed WGM Dinara Saduakassova drew with Filipino WIM Frayna Janelle Mae. Thus, Alina and Frayna now lead the girls¡¦ section with 7.0/9. WIM Dinara Dordzhieva, despite losing her game, made a WGM norm, while WFM Alinasab Mobina of Iran and India¡¦s Priyanka K. made WIM norms. |

|
Aug-18-16 | | pinoymaster77: Janelle got the right continuation, pero may 2 queens na sya eh ayaw pa mag resign ni WIM Catherina, gusto pa yata mag 3 queens si Janelle ah Drawish yung top board kay WIM Bivol, so napipinting Janelle will grab the SOLO lead ! |

Aug-18-16 | | cro777: An instructive strategic error by Indian WIM Catherina Prince Michelle in round 10. Frayna - Michelle. Position after 35.Ra7
 click for larger view The bishop pair needs space to be effective. The side with the bishop pair needs to open the position. Therefore, in the diagram position the correct move was 35…e5! 35…e5 36.Bg2 Ra8 37.Rxa8 Qxa8 38.dxe5 d4 39.Bxc6 Bxe3+ 40.Kg2 Qxc6+ 41.Qf3 Qa6 42.Qf6+ Qxf6 43.exf6+ Kxf6 44.Nxb5 d3 45.Kf3 Bg1

|
Aug-18-16 | | pinoymaster77: Another sage analysis by cro777 on the game last night |
|
Aug-18-16 | | pinoymaster77: These 2 WIM Frayna and IM Paulo were the 'future' and the future is now in the present, they're the 2 key NCFP players. Eversince her Bicol days, Janelle got the early lessons from NM Bagy who promptly endorsed her to GM Jay for the FEU team ,and since then no turning back from UAAP MVP to National Juniors champ, and forthcoming 3rd Olympiad stint? (her CG games start with 2012 Olympiad). There's a natural timeline to a female chess player's career with many dropping out after college graduation and marriage / having family, so many young players are also in the Olympiad team like Fronda Bernales Mendoza with only Perena-Secopito being a Mom. Youngsters like San Diego, Doroy and Bea Mendoza are waiting for their turn. For IM Paulo, sana mabuo sila nila IMs Pascua, Garcia and NM Docena to be ready for Olympiad level play for the next gen. It will be IM Pau's 2nd Olympiad in Baku. |
|
Aug-18-16 | | Pulo y Gata: It's admirable that Janelle is representing the country at a time like this. One does not represent his or her country only in time of plenty; one represents the country in time of need. Otherwise one is just like a sellsword of yore, a hired hand out for his or her own profit. Admirable young lady whose beautiful face is matched with an even more beautiful disposition and an excellent functioning brain. Go, Janelle! |
|
Aug-19-16 | | MCDreamz: Janelle should move to Minnetonka and join forces with Wesley So. Lotis Key will take good care of her. In corrupt Philippines, some politico and politico lackeys like the Kabayo Faces aka weirdlings will just take advantage of her. |
|
Aug-19-16 | | gokusano: Well, I guess you won't be able corrupting the pristine mind of the beautiful girl. She loves her parents very much. Ingratitude is still not yet in her mind, unless someone with a fork tongue inveigles her with subterfuge. |
|
Aug-19-16 | | gokusano: Maybe porky tongue. Taba na eh... hehehe |
|
Aug-19-16 | | MCDreamz: Ho hum hirit by ugoku. |
