It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that today's game officially ended.

However, due to the double elimination, no one is out of the tournament after the first round today, but the 32 people who won the game will enter the upper bracket, and the 32 people who lost will enter the lower bracket, and the game will continue tomorrow.

Tomorrow, the loser of the lower bracket will be directly eliminated, and the loser of the upper bracket will enter the lower bracket and continue to form 32 players for the loser match.

At this time, Ying Jie took the stage to draw the game draw for tomorrow's winner's group.

Because there is no avoidance of the same country in this competition, everyone draws lots in a basket.

"Three."

Ying Jie looked at the numbers on the white chess pieces he drew out and said.

Now there are more and more tricks on the draw, the winner of the Datong Cup draws lots with white pieces with black numbers, and the losers group uses black pieces with white numbers.

And the organizer also provides a small hanging chain, you can use this as a bracelet, you can also use this as a necklace to decorate and wear, which can also be regarded as a souvenir of participating in the competition.

After drawing lots, Ying Jie went directly to the following position and sat down.

"I don't know who will be unlucky to draw you tomorrow."

Looking at Ying Jie, who came back from the draw, Xiao Xiao smiled and said with a smile next to him.

Because there is no avoidance in the same country, Ying Jie, who is often the priority of Japanese and Korean chess players, is now also met by domestic chess players.

There is no doubt that as the big demon king of the audience, naturally whoever touches it will be unlucky.

"What's the hurry, it's not you anyway."

Hearing this, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but cover his heart and pierced his heart.

I really can't touch it.

Because it's already two groups.

finally entered the World Series, but Xiao Xiao and Fan Ruoyu encountered a strong opponent at the beginning, and directly fought with their families, and then both lost.

Xiao Xiao ran into Lu Li Jiuduan, although Lu Li Jiuduan said every day that he was old and couldn't move, and he really had to consider retiring, how could he strengthen the promotion and development of Go for himself?

There was a lot of talk, but the rating remained firm in third place.

What kind of hierarchy to eat is pure nonsense.

The higher the rating score, the lower the score for winning a round, but once you lose a round, you lose a game.

Just like Ying Jie's current score, if he loses one game, he may have to win five or six games to win it back, and if he loses a bigger one, he has to win more than a dozen consecutive games to earn it back.

The higher the rating, the more difficult it is to maintain it, and sometimes it becomes a burden.

Therefore, in the face of Lu Lijiuduan, who was in the late prime of life, Xiao Xiao, who had not yet become a complete body, directly punched him fiercely, and then sent it.

Fan Ruoyu's idea was even more memorized, and he directly ran into the abolished prince of the second person in active service, the Taishang Wangshi Mingzhi.

Although Fan Ruoyu's strength is not much worse than Shi Mingzhi's, and there is hope of winning, she still has a problem in the middle game and unfortunately loses.

In this way, the two most promising new generations directly entered the lower bracket in the first round.

In the absence of the avoidance of the same country, the strong opponent of his own family is so hurt, and whoever loses is a loss.

"It's okay, this time there is only one person who doesn't have to enter the lower bracket, whether it's the first round or the last round.

As long as you can keep winning, you can make it to the finals, right? ”

Compared with Xiao Xiao, who felt that there were dark clouds floating on his head after the defeat in the first round, Fan Ruoyu seemed very calm and calm.

It's just a loss of one game, and as long as there is a chance in the future, there is hope of winning.

"Park Jung-hwan, No. 4."

Hearing the number of numbers playing against him, Ying Jie subconsciously raised his head and took a look, and the one standing on the stage was Park Zhenghuan, who had just sent a world champion to Ying Jie some time ago.

"Park Jung-hwan, he's still the second person in South Korea, right?

The first round is Ko Yong-ha, the second round is Park Jung-hwan, and the third round should not be Choi Taek, who is ranked third in South Korea's rating. ”

Looking at the numbers drawn, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but smile beside him and said.

In the first two rounds, he directly met the first and second ranked Korean chess players, which can be said to be very lucky.

Fortunately, it was Ying Jie, otherwise if you change someone, your mentality will have to collapse in advance.

"Phew! How could my luck be like this? I'm still in vain! ”

Although it doesn't really matter who the opponent is, if you can meet the weak, why fight the strong?

Although they are all wins, the energy of winning Gao Yongxia and winning Xiao Xiao are not above the same magnitude.

If you can lie down and win, why do you have to work hard to fight one by one.

Just like the LP Cup, if you are a seeded player, you can become a world champion by winning four games directly, and then there is a prize money.

Money is more and less eventful, no matter who likes it.

For example, the Datong Cup is undoubtedly the most complicated and the most competitive world series at present, but he can't bear his high prize money, and Ying Jie also admits it.

There is a legendary experience in my life, I will kill all the way to win the championship, and I can satisfy the sense of ceremony.

Later, everyone wants to lie down and win.

It's better to send all the trophies and prize money to my house.

"Still, Park Jung-hwan."

Seeing Park Zhenghuan standing on the stage, Ying Jie couldn't help but think of the other party's performance in the Ying Cup final.

As I said before, it is inevitable that the game of Go will be a feature of the game.

Even today, when the rules are perfect, turning the chess pieces over to make the opponent awkward, and wearing strange clothes to distract the opponent are all external moves to a certain extent.

There are even people who sigh during the game, roll their eyes on the other side, and then report that the other side rolls their eyes and disrespects them.

It's really hard to define.

Of course, the pinnacle of psychological warfare with off-the-market moves is that a certain old-timer pretends to lose in the second reading stage of the game, trying to deceive the opponent into winning two games in a row.

But because of the time pressure of counting seconds, the old-timers are afraid that they will overtime and fall first, otherwise it will really become a famous game of off-the-market tricks if it is a little later.

Off-the-board moves are inevitable, and sometimes it is even difficult to say right or wrong, such as the battle to turn on the air conditioner during the game in the last century, when the game is played, one must turn on the air conditioner, and the other should not be turned on.

One person says it's not good to open it, and the other says it's not good to open it.

In the end, the organizer could only open for half an hour and close for half an hour, and the result was ridiculous.

But Park Jung-hwan's filling and left and right opening bows are already considered intra-plate moves to a certain extent, and it is difficult not to be annoying.

So tomorrow's game, I have to work harder.

Ying Jie was thinking about it, when he saw Xiao Xiao coming back from the draw in the losers' group, the expression on his face became even more painful.

"Gao Yongxia."

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but shake his head, he just complained about Ying Jie's signing luck, but he didn't know that he was the real one.

In the World Series, he faced the first person in China and South Korea in two consecutive games.

The first person in the two countries to serve one of them at the same time, what kind of blessing?
