I doubt it. I think the FOR UPDATE in the sub-select is blocked because the other session has an uncommitted update on the row it wants to lock. This command won't reach the pg_try_advisory_lock call until that row lock comes free.
Yes, I figured it out, but pg_try_advisory_lock returned TRUE even without "FOR UPDATE" clause in the subquery. Shouldn't it return false because it can't lock the row until the uncommitted update finishes?
