Well, the traditional analysis of their own parties from the Christmas tournament. Let me remind you that the debut regulations are Yamasyrv-8 (the first number chooses which rules to play, Yamaguchi or Co-Issued-8).
My rival in the first round is Anna Glibina. It’s funny that last year we also played in the first round. Then we had a rather interesting game on the new theory. At the same time we played the canonical version of 8D.

Anya gave me 8D, ordering three fifth alternative. I decided not to experiment, choosing the canonical version 4-4 with white and preparing for 5-7 or 5-A. My opponent set the following alternatives: 5-5, 5-8, 5-10. The strongest out of 5-8, I immediately removed, and from the remaining two incorrect fifths I chose 5-5. 7 move loses quickly enough, which was demonstrated in the game. Playing back the foursome with 12 moves floats point B and prevents Black from intercepting three of 14 with his own.

My second opponent is Ekaterina Glibina.

The game was played according to the rules of co-review. I put 7D. After the subsequent reversal, I had to come up with a 4th move with a not-so-easy implementation for Black, and this 4th move corresponds exactly to that. At the same time, I specifically underestimated the number of fifths, ordering 6 pieces (in fact, there are more strong ones behind black fifths). My rival left behind a white color. Alternative fifths: 6,7,12,14, And. This 5th move for some time had the controversial status of having black wins here. Now we know what it is, but it is quite difficult to implement. 6 move is the strongest. On 6-B, Black plays 7-7, if 6-A, then 7-8, 8-7, 9-14, 10-6, 11-16, 12-11, 13-22, 14-25, 15- 17, 16-10, 17-C, 18-D, 19-29. 10 is the strongest, but the 12th move is an error, after which the gain placed in the game follows, there are no defenses from pause 13. The most stubborn 12-15, after which it is not so easy for Black to win.

The third round is a more serious test of strength, my opponent is the winner of last year’s Christmas tournament, Alexander Radzeveluk. A very important lot, affecting the distribution of seats.

Alexander gave me 10D on sooyssru-8. This meant only one thing, if I decide to do the reverse and choose the color after 4 turns, then 4th move will be experimental, somewhere 4-6, 4-7 (as it was in the 9th round of Myasoedov-Radzeveluk) or 4-A It was in the party of the 7th round Smirnov-Radzelevyuk), to which I was not quite ready. Therefore, once again I decided to choose a well-known option, in which, however, you can compete for both colors by ordering 3 fifths. In principle, here you can safely order and 4, but I planned to keep the whites for myself and play option 5-5. To my surprise, my opponent chose such a plan and decided to play White with the same fifth. From the language tore, as they usually say. Alternative: 34, V.
Turns 6 to 14 are the usual draw for this option. Then Black has many game plans, the most popular of which are 15-С, 15-D, 15-Е. In general, it is possible to play as a matter of fact in any part of the board, since the variant is of a positional character without White’s apparent momentary activity. The 15th move is unusual and almost never met before in the game practice (the only full-time game I managed to find on the base is T. Il-S. Carlsson 2005). Actually, the main task was to surprise the opponent, as well as get away from well-known sequels. In addition, in my opinion, it is better than its analogue 15-C. I borrowed this move from the Petersburg rand player Vladimir Filinov, who used a similar plan with Black in a game with me on VT-2014, playing 13-15 (the game then ended in a draw after 62 moves). The 16th move looks reliable and complicates the black development below. It seems after him my opponent offered me a draw, however it was only the third round and many important games were still ahead, so I decided not to repeat the experience of two years ago and continue the game.
17-24 is a completely natural development. Black should already try to gain a decisive advantage somewhere, but attempts at 25 and 27 moves, while appearing formidable, are reflected quite simply and efficiently. 29-30 also seems a strong continuation, but with careful analysis behind the board, the answer is 30-F, 31-G, 32-H, 33-29, 34-J, 35-K, 36-L or 30-F 31-29 32 -J or 32-M seemed enough to score all Black’s activity on this flank.
I decided to go smoothly to the other flank and try my luck there, so I went to exchange 29 and 30 moves. For quite a long time, I chose between 31 different moves, where it was better to start the attack, and I stopped there, because in limited time it seemed like the best attack to continue. 32 – an attempt to counterplay using the resources available to White from the bottom right. 34 move – an unforced error. It is difficult to say what caused the error, or accumulated fatigue (it was an evening tour after the first two), or loss of motivation in a closed and not very promising position.35 move – a designation that was placed in response to a strange move aside. The result is Black’s victory in a generally equal position, which slowly but surely was already leaning towards a hopeless draw.
