Goa Intl Chess Tournament: Anurag, Nitish on 2 points after Round 2

Panaji, Jun 19 (UNI) Grandmaster Anurag Mhamal and Fide Master Nitish Belurkar continued their winning momentum as they prevailed in the second round of 2nd Goa International Open Grandmaster Chess Tournament 2019 following their wins in their respective encounters held at Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Indoor Stadium, Taleigao, near here, on Wednesday.
Anurag, who played against Fide Master Wagh Suyog, went for a Queen’s Indian opening and managed to get advantage on flank. He also sacrificed one pawn in the middle game for compensation. Eventually in the 20th move Anurag was able to penetrate into the second rank which left the white king isolated and the Goa’s 1st GM seized the opportunity to achieve the victory.
Playing against Querishi MA, FM Nitish Belurkar slowly advanced from an equal position and manoeuvred the end game to achieve a fine technical victory. Both Nitish and Anurag are on two points each.
