In the 6th round of the FIDE men’s “Grand Prix” taking place in Astrakhan Vladimir Hakobyan competed with Van Yue with white. Both are strong chess players and have high techniques. In the first part of the game they used one of the Russian versions. It should be noticed that as Hakobyan so as Van Yue are experienced in such kind of game.
At last the representative of China managed to return what he had lost in the previous round. In the last round he had lost in the game with Yakovenko.
The earned 1 point allows the Chinese grandmaster to continue the struggle for the last permit. However Vladimir Hakobyan is in the last place of the tournament list with 2 points.
