24/01/2022 – Entre el 24 de enero y el 3 de febrero se disputará el torneo "Batalla de los Sexos" (Battle of Sexes), en Gibraltar. Durante diez rondas y en total 100 partidas, este torneo por sistema Schenveningen va a juego con la discusión sociológica-científica en el debate si los hombres juegan más fuertes que las mujeres y en su caso, ¿por qué? En la primera ronda, Olga Girya ganó frente a Joseph Gallagher. Marsel Efroimski venció a Eric Rosen y Balazs Csonka se apuntó una victoria con negras frente a Jovanka Houska. Irenke Sukandar venció al "capitán", Sabino Brunello. Pia Cramling venció a Bellahcene. | Foto: John Saunders (Gibraltar Internactional Chess Festival 2022)

Marsel Efroimski sumó otro punto a favor del equipo femenino, en su partida contra el jugador estadounidense, Eric Rosen. El húngaro Balazs Csonka conquistó una victoria en nombre del equipo masculino en su partida contra Jovanka Houska etwas heran. La ex campeona del mundo, Antoaneta Stefanova y Bobby Cheng firmaron tablas en una India de Rey. Gunnay Mammadzada e Husain Aziz igualmente compartieron el punto, al igual que el gran maestro inglés (obtuvo el título hace poco), Ravi Haria, y la ex campeona del mundo, Mariya Muzychuk.

The Benko Gambit is back at the very highest level - and it's easy to see why. Black sacrifices a pawn to seize the initiative on the queenside, obtaining long-lasting pressure, active pieces and open files that make life difficult for White.
The Hyper-Accelerated dragon is fast, from the very first moves, your bishop heads to g7, seizes the long diagonal, and turns into the most feared piece on the board.
