    Bd. 29 GM Alsina Leal, Daniel 3.0 ESP 2531 - GM Bluvshtein, Mark 3.0 CAN 2590

    Move 86- Alsina Leal is still up a passed P, but since my last report at move 35, his passed cP has not moved - still on c3 ! He is making no progress, partly because there are opposite coloured B's.
    Stockfish - has Alsina Leal's advantage decreasing from a P to about 1/4 P.

    My prediction is that Daniel will soon offer a draw to Mark.

    Rd. 8 - Bluvshtein - Result

    Bd. 29 GM Alsina Leal, Daniel 3.0 ESP 2531 .5 - .5 - GM Bluvshtein, Mark 3.0 CAN 2590

    Move 88- Alsina Leal was still up a passed P when a draw was agreed. From my report at move 35, his passed cP had not moved - still on c3 ! He was making no progress, partly because there were opposite coloured B's. My prediction at move 86 was that Daniel would soon offer a draw to Mark, which he did 2 moves later.

    Stockfish - had Alsina Leal's advantage decreased from a 1/4 P to 0.

    Mark has 3.5/8 pts..
