Special correspondent Guca reported that on January 1, 2022, the semi-finals of the 7th TWT Tencent Go Championship were held online, and the two sets of the Sino-Korean civil war, Yudao Feng (Wang Xinghao 6 dan) won the sword over silence (even laughing nine dan), nparadigm (Shin Jin-jin 9 dan beat miracle (Bian Xiang Yi Jiu Dan). Starting tomorrow, the final triple game will be played between two Chinese and Korean post-00s players.
This year's TWT Tencent Go Championship is divided into three stages: audition, rematch and offline finals, and the top 32 of the Wild Fox popularity list enter the rematch. The rematch is a five-round stepped elimination round, after five rounds of elimination, Lian Xiaojiu, Wang Xinghao 6, Shen Zhenchen 9, and Bian Xiangyi 9 dan advanced to the offline finals.
Among these four chess players, in addition to Shen Zhenchen, Bian Xiangyi, Lian Xiao and Wang Xinghao ranked 2nd to 4th respectively in the sea selection popularity list, all of which were seeded players and directly advanced to the fifth round (quarterfinals). In the fifth round of the knockout round, Miracle97 (Bian Xiangyi) defeated ykpcx (Fan Tingyu), Sword Pass Silent (Lian Laugh) defeated the Time Worm (Yang Dingxin), Yudao Feng (Wang Xinghao) and slaughtered the dragon lurking (Ke Jie).
On the first day of the new year, the TWT semi-finals began, and Wang Xinghao, who turned 18 a month away, smiled at Lian Jiudan, both of whom were regulars on Tencent Wild Fox Go and were familiar with AI techniques. In the prologue, the two men pointed threes and threes to each other, and Wang Xinghao simply took another corner and took the field of the three corners together, forcing the black chess to manage the external situation.
When the white chess piece wanted to invade and compress the black array on the upper side of the plate first, Lian Xiao couldn't bear to move the sword, forcibly crossed the white chess piece, and found the fighter. In the short encounter, Wang Xinghao showed accurate calculation of the road, and kan kan could capture the number of black chess pieces in one breath, and defused the disaster of the number of white chess pieces. However, the black chess piece also has the victory of Mulberry Yu, taking advantage of the situation to thicken itself, and also encircling the upper side of the game, but the winning rate has dropped to single digits.
After that, although the number of hands was long, but the winning rate was unexpectedly not too big ups and downs, the white chess piece firmly controlled the game, the method was concise and sophisticated, and by the end of the 243 hand, although the white chess piece only won by 1/4 of the sub-game, the winning rate led the most of the game.
Shen Zhenchen and Bian Xiangyi have played a big fight in the past year, successively in the Celebrity War and the GS Plus Cup final, although the final winners are All Shin Zhenchen, but Bian Xiangyi also dragged the game to the final game, proving his strength and progress. Bian Xiangyi, who was white in this game, simply and effectively worked in the black formation of the lower set, breaking the balance between the two sides on the ground and leading the win rate.
But after only a few hands, Shen Zhenchen's "wolf-luring tactics" in the lower left corner worked, a large piece of white chess became an attack target, in the process of chasing and escaping, the white chess piece with a wrench, immediately gave the black chess piece a chance to forcibly interrupt, Bian Xiangyi suddenly suffered a blow, had to turn to the lower left corner to do robbery, although barely rescued the dragon, but several remnants of the periphery were robbed and killed, the black chess piece suddenly became a copper wall iron wall, and there was no fear in the subsequent battle.
When the black chess piece attacks another white piece in the middle abdomen, the victory or defeat of this game is actually determined. Bai Dalong fled all the way, and the black chess piece became thicker and thicker, which was completely unequal handover. Once the black chess piece is easily surrounded by a huge space on the upper board, the white chess piece has no room to turn over. By the end of the 183-hand game, Shin Jin-chan won the mid-set.
From January 2 to 4, Wang Xinghao and Shen Zhenchen competed for the championship of this year's TWT Tencent Go Championship through three pieces of chess, with the prize money of 600,000 yuan and 150,000 yuan respectively.
