 Lev, a win with the black pieces at a very crucial stage of the tournament. Give us your thoughts on the game today. It was an opening that one time we took a look with our national team. And it seems kind of interesting. Black is playing slow, he's underdeveloped, but the fact that White's knight is so misplaced on D2 gives Black a decent chance of equalizing. And then I felt I got a slightly better position and my opponent had very little time, so I managed to transfer my pieces to the squares that I wanted and I think the lack of time was a big factor. Now your opponent paid an interesting idea when he put his rook to D5 which looks like it can be taken by the bishop and you didn't take it for a long time. Can you explain that to our viewers why you didn't capture the rook for so many moves? It was an unexpected idea, a very good idea. Because if I captured then it does make sense to capture because his pawns are not really going forth. But the reason that I didn't capture is more psychological because my opponent has very little time and once you capture he knows what to do. So I wanted to keep him guessing. But White gets those strong pawns if you capture. And then the rooks are losing their strength because none of my rooks have an open file. So that's why I didn't capture. Now you were playing against a young player from India. What is it like to play against all these strong youngsters who come and play in this tournament with the aim to play against the world's elite players like you? How do you feel about that? Well, it's very exciting. I get to play against kids who are in a different league. At that age I was barely learning how to castle. And I see those guys playing fantastic chess. And it gives me a good feeling because I'm optimistic about the future of our game if we have so many promising juniors in today's chess. Now do you feel that we're going into round seven? After playing all these games do you think that you missed playing in open tournaments? How's your feeling been so far playing in an open event after so long? Do you feel like you missed it and it's something that you want to come back to at some point? It's a very different feel because when I used to play open tournaments guys who were rated below 2,600 were very pleasant to play against. Nowadays it's not the case. I think the general level of chess is rising. It's very tough. I'm losing lots of rating and I understand the reason for it... I should be losing much more. The reason why I'm losing so little is because I get lucky. I still get some respect. Tell us a little more about this statement that you still get some more respect. What do you mean by that? I was losing yesterday. Khusman played a great idea and then I felt okay. It's going to be a draw. Let's go for it and then I realized I'm losing but I saw that there were some chances to repeat the moves. That's what I mean. The respect is there. Yesterday you were also playing the Battle of the Sexes. Was it your first time participating in this event? Yes. With our great leader, Nigel Short, we prevailed. He's an expert on the ladies so he told us all the secrets. He knows all their weaknesses and all their strengths. That's what I think. How was your experience? Did you have a good time? Yeah, it was a lot of fun. I realized that it's harder for the girls because they're wearing high heels so we should do something about it. Maybe men should wear kills or something. Compensate. I'm going to pass that suggestion to our tournament director for next year. Now we've got four crucial rounds ahead of us. Any change or any idea of how you're going to go ahead? Any change in strategy from what's been going on previously? How do you think things are going to change? Well, I finally played not a terrible game so that's quite a change and I look forward to having the same experience of playing normal chess. Probably it was a good practice that you got at the Battle of the Sexes last night. Yeah, I got substituted and this was a wake-up call. You got fired from your team in round three? Yes. We wish you all the best for the remaining games and look forward to having you back in our studio. Thank you very much.
