Round 8

Today I played against Olexandr Triapishko, the number one Ukrainian. He was very hard to prepare for as he goes under two names, Alexandr Trjpishko and the name above. In the game, he took a lot of time for the opening, but still got a worse position. In the middlegame, I attacked his king. He tried to do the same, but in doing so he lost a piece. Then I had mate in 2 and he resigned. He was under time pressure the whole game. I continue on with 6/8 with three more rounds to go.
