 First big result of the day as Maxime Vashier-Lagrave takes down Alex Yanco in round nine of the Gibraltar Masters. Maxime joins us in our studio. Maxime Arroy Lopez, A3 variation and a win in 29 moves. What happened? This was all part of my preparation that I had never managed to use against Levan for instance, and it's a practical try. If he had found, I mean D5 was the first step in the right direction, but if he had found Nc2 then the game is equal. Although he had already spent more than one hour, so probably I would have tried to find something less forcing, but yeah in practice for one game it was a very poisonous try. How long back had you prepared this line? Something like two years ago, I can't remember exactly one. That's really interesting. It happens often too, especially the elite guys, when they've been working and they prepare something but it happens after a couple of years on the board. To be fair, it might also have been from my own retardation when I missed probably some move order in some games or I had to wait a few years to play it, but finally I could and with this I see the effect. A very crucial game going into the final round. Things couldn't have gone better for you today. Definitely, it's a very good result. I'm not sure we'll catch up a tie for first place because Artemiev seemed to be a bit better at the moment, but anyway it's a very good result and it gives me hope to play for win in the last one. Absolutely and you're gonna keep an eye on the other games, anyone in particular? Not really, I'll just let them play. I'll just let them sweat and maybe I'll have a sweat off my own if I go to the gym if I have the courage, but anyway I'll just let them play and see the bearings as they happen tonight. Tomorrow we're gonna have an early game. Are you still gonna have a night out? Oh probably not. Good to hear that and we had you on the panel last night, did you enjoy yourself? That was fun, yeah. Lots of interesting discussions and insights from you. Approach for tomorrow, you're probably gonna play with the black pieces? I know that. I'll play it as it is, depends of course on my opponent, how he reacts. For instance, if David wins and he will play with Alpha Point ahead of me, so that would change the psychology of the game. It depends of course if my opponent wants to play solid or for win tomorrow, so all these parameters will be taken into account and I will see what I can do. We wish you all the best for tomorrow, thank you for joining us. Thank you, Daniel. Thanks.
