  • Leinier Ya Está En La Tercera Ronda, Bruzón a Tie Break
    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown Leinier es el dueño del Elo más alto de Latinoamérica (dos mil 719 puntos).Autor: Juventud Rebelde Publicado: 21/09/2017 | 05:13 pm Leinier ya está en la tercera ronda, Bruzón a tie break En total, diez duelos se decidirán este viernes en las partidas rápidas y algunos favoritos tienen la vida complicada Publicado: Jueves 01 septiembre 2011 | 07:41:48 pm. Publicado por: Juventud Rebelde El Gran Maestro (GM) cubano Leinier Domínguez (2710) dividió el punto este viernes en solo diez jugadas con el GM moldavo Viktor Bologan (2656) y clasificó para la tercera ronda de la Copa del Mundo de ajedrez, que se desarrolla en la ciudad rusa de Khanty Mansiysk. El güinero compró una ganga, pues le bastaba con tablas, y su rival apenas presentó batalla. En la siguiente fase, Leinier se medirá con el ganador del duelo entre el estadounidense Alexander Ivanov (2523) y el ruso Igor Lysyi (2632), quienes empataron las dos partidas clásicas y definirán su suerte este viernes en tie break. Mientras, Lázaro Bruzón (2682) desaprovechó las piezas blancas y fue derrotado por el GM español Francisco Vallejo (2716), en 60 movimientos de una defensa Siciliana. Veremos si puede recuperarse psicológicamente para las partidas rápidas, donde cualquier cosa puede pasar. Varios favoritos ya clasificaron para la tercera fase, entre ellos el ucraniano Vassily Ivanchuk (2765), los azerbaijanos Vugar Gashimov (2756) y Teimour Radjabov (2752), y el estadounidense Gata Kamsky (2756). También avanzaron otros conocidos como los rusos Alexander Morozevich (2737), Nikita Vitiugov (2726) y Dmitry Jakovenko (2716), el vietnamita Le Quang Liem (2717), el georgiano Baadur Jobava (2712), el italiano Fabiano Caruana (2712), el checo David Navara (2705), y la húngara Judit Polgar (2701).

  • LCC Kramnik Press Release
    Head Ofce 44 Baker Street, London W1U 7RT Tel: 020 7935 3445 Email: [email protected] www.chessinschools.co.uk CSC on Breakfast TV! www.bbc.co.uk/news/ education-13343943 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tuesday, 3rd September WORLD CUP WINNER VLADIMIR KRAMNIK TO PLAY IN 5TH LONDON CHESS CLASSIC Chess in Schools and Communities is delighted to announce today that GM Vladimir Kramnik, the recent Fide World Cup winner in Tromsø, Norway, has accepted his invitation to play in the 5th London Chess Classic to be staged at the Olympia Conference Centre in Kensington, running from Saturday 7th December to Sunday 15th December. London has become a happy hunting ground for Kramnik. Not only has the former World Champion been a regular at the London Chess Classic, winning the 2011 edition, and runner-up twice (behind Magnus Carlsen, the World No.1, on both occasions), in 2009 and 2012, but in 2000, London was also the venue for his historic world title win over Garry Kasparov. Earlier this week in Tromsø, Kramnik showed he’s still a major force in the game with his easy victory in the four-game Fide World Cup final over the current Russian champion, Dmitry Andreikin; that will see both qualify for next year’s Candidates’ tournament. And Kramnik’s overall performance in the World Cup, also saw the former World Champion once again reclaiming the World No. 3 spot in the September Fide rating list published this week. Kramnik now joins World Champion Vishy Anand and the US No.1, Hikaru Nakamura as the the third player to have confirmed they will play in the 5th London Chess Classic.

Ya en cuartos de final derrotó al estadounidense Jeffery Xiong y en semifinales al francés Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, quien logró la tercera posición al vencer 4-2 al chino Yu Yangyi en los dos primeros compromisos de desempate, tras entablar en los cuatro clásicos. Un total de 128 ajedrecistas procedentes de 47 países participaron en la justa rusa, que otorgó a los dos finalistas (Radjabov y Ding) sus cupos al Torneo de Candidatos, del 11 de marzo al 5 de abril de 2020 en Ekaterimburgo, Rusia, esa lid determinará al retador del vigente titular universal, el noruego Magnus Carlsen.

I would like to mention that the whole family contributed to this book. We are also extremely thankful to our friends, who, thanks to their previous experience, have introduced us to the process of creating chess books, with their invaluable advice and ideas. Considering the abundance of material regarding this topic that was gathered, we decided to make this book only the first, lower level of the “Positional sacrifice” edition. My father and I worked hard to make sure that the new book will be as interesting as the first one, but also more adapted to the wider audience.
