The party of the sixth round of Moscow Championship on Renju 2016.

After staging the debut of my opponent let me turn four to deliver, making reverse. With the fourth, I ordered a 7-fifths, with the hope that I will play white (seven Black significant advantage here), because I had an option that would be interesting to check for white. In this chetyrehhodovke lot Fifth, realize that the advantage is not so simple. But my opponent decided to leave me black. Fifth in the Party is winning, is positional, and perhaps one of the most difficult to be realized. Alternative fifth: AE.

This course of 6 – the strongest, which reduces variation in 2D. You can also try white and other protections, but they are not sufficient. At 6 A black correspond 7-B, 8-C 9 !,-D! and after a little forced the draw by the White Black is enough resources to win the top left. 6-E plays in the spirit of similar positions of 7 Diagonal 7-6. At the 8-G 8-F or black is required to win back triple 9 11-H-J, after which in most embodiments is enough to make a decisive break. At 8-H necessary to develop left 9-J and 11-D. 6-G is known from the canonical version 4 vertical and loses after 7-A, 8-K 9-L. 7 move ideologically true, it provides sufficient space for black and worked together with the surrounding prepares stroke or 9-M 9-B.

Eighth stroke is not the best. Its idea is to limit the development of a black top, but there is nothing stopping to start a decisive black environment on the other flank 9m progress that has been made. One of the best defenses then 8-11, 9-B, 10-A, 11-9, 12-C, but it loses, although not trivial. You can also try 8-10. 10 course – the most resistant. If 10-21, then 11-11, 12-12, 13-13, 14-14, 15-A. Next to the 11 stroke should be forced draw. In the course of the party were going to connect the black wing of the other through point D, for it was played marking 21 (at the close of 22 Black retained the ability to use the diagonal 26-21-D). However, just enough and on that flank, so it is safe to be played 21-25, 23-21.
