In the third game of the 29th LG Cup World Go Championship Trilogy Finals that ended on January 23, Beijing time, Chinese chess player Ke Jie, because the two "grapes" were not put on the lid of the chess box, were punished normally.
Ke Jie's opponent Bian Xiangyi eventually won the championship, and Bian Xiangyi also became the first chess player to become a world champion by relying on referee decisions. In this LG Cup final, after Bian Xiangyi lost the first game, he was sentenced to win in the second game because he reported Ke Jie's 2 violations, and in the decisive game, Ke Jie chose to retire because he did not accept the punishment, and he made a profit and "won" 1 game, 0-1 to win the championship.
Although the domestic chess player won the LG Cup, many Korean netizens don't seem to buy this championship too much. Many Korean netizens left messages on the chess fan forum and complained: "What a shameful champion!" Because he blindly followed the rules of the hexagram, he robbed the champion."
There are also Korean chess fans who believe that it should be understood that China does not have seat management rules: "This kind of judgment is too harsh." Warnings are enough. "After this LG Cup, I feel like I have to change the rules again", "Is there such a game of Go? "Go can't be won in this way, and it can't be won!" "The essence of Go is blurred, and I think it's necessary to relax the rules!" ”
Some Korean netizens also expressed sympathy for Ke Jie, who was repeatedly punished and withdrawn from the game: "If you eat 30 children, and in the end the tower can't be put into the lid of the box, will you lose if you fall to the ground?" "It's really necessary to keep the eaten seeds, so they all use electronic records nowadays?" ”
