Arabic term or phrase: يبرع
How would you translate the word يبرع in the sentence below from a short story (they are in a cafe playing chess with spectators around watching the game)?

كأنهم بوقوفهم في صفي ودعم موقفي يعوّضون خساراتهم القديمة للقب, يتطوع أحدهم برص القطع على الرقعة ويبرع آخر في إجلاس من كان يبتغي الرحيل سالبا نصره مني سلبا وراغبا في الفرار بحساباتي وحساباتهم
