Chapter 188: The difference between one level

When entering the venue, Su Rui encountered a problem. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because he only remembered now that he didn't bring anything, not even an invitation, and the doorman couldn't let him in at all.

After all, Su Rui flew directly from Chicago, and of course didn't prepare anything.

Fortunately, at this time, he saw Chen Xing, and Chen Xing had already prepared everything for him and was waiting for him at the gate.

After seeing Chen Xing, Su Rui said thank you and followed him in.

At this time, the tournament had already begun, and the players had begun to enter, and although he was a little late, he finally caught up and did not delay the game.

After all the players were in place, the Korean host began to introduce the format of the Samsung Cup.

It's just that Su Rui didn't understand a word, he couldn't understand Korean, although the Korean host repeated it in English, but Korean English is even more difficult to understand than Korean, let alone expect to be able to understand.

However, he had already done his homework before he came, and even if he couldn't understand the host's words, he knew the format.

In the round of 32 of the Samsung Cup, a double-elimination system is adopted, while a single-elimination system is used in the round of 16 and the round of 8, and a three-way decisive battle is used in the semi-finals and finals in the later semi-finals and finals. The game adopts the rules of Japan and South Korea, with Black sticking 6 and a half meshes, and the time time rules are that each side has a time limit of 2 hours, and the second is counted 1 minute and 5 times.

In fact, the format of the Samsung Cup is not much different from other Go competitions, they are all similar, they all follow international rules, and they are also familiar to professional chess players.

Soon, after the opponent was decided by draw, the match officially began.

In the top 32 match, Su Rui relied on his twelve-level Go skills, which can be described as invincible, and he did not meet an opponent at all, because the most powerful opponent he encountered was only at level 11, and there was no way to fight him at all.

As long as the Go level reaches level 11, in previous tournaments, it is no problem to reach the semi-finals and even the finals, and even if you are lucky, it is possible to win the championship.

It's just that these chess players are unlucky and meet Su Rui, who has a level 12 Go skill, they are destined to lose.

In the round of 32, as long as he loses twice in a row, he will be eliminated, but Su Rui did not lose once and directly entered the round of 16 with a complete victory.

The next day, he still won consecutive matches in the round of 16, and after entering the top 8, it was the same, he did not meet any opponents who could match him, allowing him to win easily and qualify for the semifinals.

After two days of competition, Su Rui also knew why the Samsung Cup would increase the championship prize this time.

The main reason is that the Korean chess players are relatively strong this time, and the organizers think that the Korean chess players can win the championship, so they will increase the championship bonus, but do not improve the prize money of other rankings.

Therefore, the organizers of the Samsung Cup believe that the fertilizer and water will not flow into the fields of outsiders, so they will increase the championship bonus.

It's just that the Samsung Cup has been counted, but Su Rui has not been counted, I don't know that he is a person with a cheat, a person with 12-level Go skills, and it is not too much of a problem to win the championship.

On the third day, the semi-finals began, and in the semi-finals there were three Korean players, one of whom was Jeongkook, and that was Su Rui.

For Su Rui, a Korean chess player, South Korea is no stranger, after all, it has not been long since he won the championship cup of the LG Cup, and now he has appeared in the Samsung Cup and advanced to the semifinals.

Therefore, what Korean chess players want to do most now is to defeat Su Rui and regain their honor, including the Korean audience, who want to win once.

As for the Zhenguo side, he naturally hopes that Su Rui can win again and get the Samsung Cup championship in his hands, so that South Korea's wishful thinking will fail, and too many people hope that he can win.

In the semi-finals, Su Rui lived up to expectations, defeated his opponent 2-0 and successfully advanced to the finals.

As long as he beats another player in the final, he can get 800 million won in the championship prize, and in the field of Go, he has one more honor.

It can be said that Su Rui is already a well-known chess player in the Go world.

Because, in just one year, he grew up rapidly, starting from the National College Student Go Championship, successively won the Chunlan Cup, LG Cup championship, and now advanced to the finals of the Samsung Cup, hoping to win the championship, such brilliant results are enough to attract attention.

Of course, among Zhenguo's Go players, there are many players who have won honors, more than Su Rui, but they all took many years, at least a few years, and they started to get in touch with Go at a very young age and grew up step by step.

Su Rui, on the other hand, has achieved all these honors within a year, and a year ago, he had not touched Go.

Because of this, he became the object of public attention, and his fame quickly surpassed that of the long-established professional chess player, and gradually became a leading figure in the Zhenguo Go world.

If Su Rui wins another championship in this Samsung Cup, then his fame will rise another notch, and he can definitely become one of the most prestigious chess players.

In the afternoon, the final of the Samsung Cup begins, and Su Rui will face off against a South Korean chess player.

There was a lot of interest in this competition, and Go fans from South Korea and Jinkook took this final very seriously, and they all wanted to know who would be the winner.

In this final, the opponent Su Rui encountered was the top chess player in Korean Go, and he was also one of the top chess players in the Quanzhen world, and he has been famous for a long time and is a very strong chess player.

Therefore, the Koreans have great expectations for this chess player, thinking that he can beat Su Rui and become the champion of the Samsung Cup, and this chess player is also full of confidence.

It's just that Su Rui doesn't think so, he can win the LG Cup, the Samsung Cup, he can also get it, no matter who the opponent is, he can do it.

After the start of the game, the two sides began to face each other.

After playing for a while, Su Rui found that it was not unreasonable for this Korean chess player to be favored by so many people, and the level of the other party was indeed very high.

Although the Korean player's Go skill level is still in the range of level 11, the real level is extremely close to level 12, and it is a level that is about to rise to level 12.

With the level of this chess player, if he wants to win the Samsung Cup championship in the past, he still has a relatively good chance, which is why so many people are optimistic about him.

However, it is a pity that the opponent of this Korean chess player is Su Rui, a player whose Go skills have reached level 12.

Even if the level of this Korean chess player is about to break through to level 12, it still belongs to level 11 after all, and the level is still a little different from level 12.

This time, there is naturally a gap between Korean chess players and Su Rui in Go.
