        HOD Nicole Zhao ( Sherry's mom ) emailed me and said that all 4 of them are safe and sound in Turkey now.

        Tournament begins tomorrow.

        All the best to both our Champions of Canada. 11 rounds in total - 1 game a day

        Cheers

                    There is an article at ChessBase on the World Juniors Round 2:

                    https://en.chessbase.com/post/world-...s-2018-round-2

                    In it, there is an interview with the Iranian Grandmaster Parham Maghsoodloo in which he said that he works at chess at least ten hours each day. His live rating is 2667. He just turned 18.

                    Of the other players, the article says:

                    This is Donchenko's final chance at the World Junior Championships. The German has been in the 2600+ zone for quite some time, but surprisingly he has played the World Juniors only once before. Hailing from the small town of Geisig near Frankfurt, Donchenko is currently dedicating all his time to chess. He aims to become a professional chess player and hopes that the World Juniors is a tournament where he can show his best chess.

                    Chat Room comment on this game:
                    • Amazing game
                    • qxc4 just tells you how hard it is to play double rounds.
                    • e7 apparently was a blunder but Maghsoodloo deserved to win and he did
                    • I just saw 73.e7; what a blunder! at such a level it is brutal to have double rounds
                    • Was there a reason for 75..Qxc4? Trying for a stalemate with double queen sacrifice?
                    • he just hallucinated and thought he can sac his queen next and his king has nowhere to go
                    • 73... Qxe7 was just enough. And I think easy to see. But the tiredness and time trouble are very important factors.
                    • Both players didn't see Kh8 and Qh7 because otherwise it seemed like white is picking up h2 with checks
                    • If you turn off the engine and look at the game it was very difficult and tiring

                        GM Maghsoodloo has won his first 5 games (perfect score) and has gained almost 30 FIDE points to reach #64 in the world. He says he works 10! hours a day on chess. I hope he continues his hot streak and reaches 2700. Its so hard to crack that level but the lad is determined.
