GM Kjetil Lie put the Norwegians ahead with the kind of robust aggression typical of his best form on board four, and the teams traded wins on boards two and three. All eyes were fixed on the Caruana-Carlsen clash, where Magnus presumably pulled off an opening surprise by adopting the offbeat variation that he himself had faced as White against Nikola Djukic of Montenegro in round three.

  • Årboken 2009/10
    Årboken 2009/10 NTG Sjakklinjen 1 Forord Denne boken er et minne fra året 2009-10, og et innblikk for andre i hvordan dagene og de spennende turene forløper seg. Sjakk er spredt i Norge. De unge, gode spillerne finnes over hele landet, men NTG er et samlingspunkt. Her møter vi andre motiverte ungdommer med ambisjoner om å bli bedre. Vi blir en gruppe som kan gi hverandre en dytt i ryggen eller et klapp på skulderen. På NTG er vi så heldige at vi får full studiekompetanse, samtidig som vi har sjakk på skolen hver dag. Vi blir kjent med andre idretter og målrettede mennesker. Det er en skole med elever som ønsker å oppnå noe, gjerne på profesjonell basis. Hvor inspirerende er ikke det? Med Simen som trener på sjakklinjen spretter jeg opp av sengen når vekkerklokken ber meg stå opp. Han er et entusiastisk JA-menneske med fokus på stadig å utforske det fremmede. Akkurat en slik person man trenger som toppidrettsutøver når dagene blir lange og presset stort. Arbeidet med denne boken har vært lærerikt. Hva er bildekvalitet? Hva skaper interesse hos leseren? Og hvordan i alle dager fungerer dette rent teknisk? Dette, og mye mer, har jeg fått gleden av å lære mer om. Jeg takker Simen, medelever og lærere for et minnerikt skoleår.

  • BULLETIN 8 Søndag 7
    BULLETIN 8 Søndag 7. juli. Pris kr 20 Den beste vant Norgesmestertittelen og Kongepokalen gikk til stormester Jon Ludvig Hammer (23) som hadde god kontroll på partituviklingen i siste runde mot Rune Djurhuus og sikret seg seieren med en remis. Dermed kunne publikum glede seg over å få hylle en Norgesmester og ikke bare stikkampspillere som i utrolige åtte av de ni foregående årene. Årets nybakte norgesmester Jon Ludvig Hammer med kongepokal på toppen av pallen. De øvrige premierte elitespillerne er fra venstre Frode Elsness, Atle Grønn, Leif E. Johannessen, Rune Djurhuus, Berge Østenstad, Frode Urkedal og Aryan Tari. Det var heller ikke mye tvil om at Jon Ludvig var en fortjent og riktig mester av Lillehammer 2013. Han spilte nok jevnt best, ble den eneste ubeseirede spilleren i klassen og endte med ett helt poengs margin til Frode Elsness, som han i et svakt øyeblikk avga en kanskje noe unødvendig remis til. For norsk sjakks del var det også best at den yngste og mest seriøst satsende stormesteren vår ved siden av Magnus Carlsen lyktes med å legge feltet bak seg og bli norgesmester for første gang. Gledelig var det også at yngstemann, Aryan Tari, bekreftet den jevnt over sterke framgangen sin med en lovende IM­tittel etter sitt tredje napp i tittelen på drøyt tre måneder.

  • Landsturneringen I Sandefjord 2012 Bulletin Nr 8
    Landsturneringen i Sandefjord 2012 Aryan Tari er på vei mot Juniortittelen Bulletin nr 8 Eliten, runde 8: Det tetner til Det er igjen delt ledelse etter at IM Espen Lie spilte remis mot IM Frode Elsness, mens IM Frode O.O. Urkedal beseiret GM Berge Østenstad. Både Lie og Urkedal står nå med 6 poeng. Mens Østenstad er ute av tetstriden, tok GM Jon Ludvig Hammer steget opp i tetstriden med seier over IM Erik Fossan. Hammer er et halvt poeng bak lederne og kommer nok til å spille hardt på gevinst i siste runde. I teorien kan også noen av spillerne på 5 poeng blande seg inn, og her finner vi GM Simen Agdestein, IM Frode Elsness, IM Øystein Hole og Benjamin Arvola. 3 spillere har mulighet til tittelnorm, men alle må vinne i siste runde: Urkedal må slå Arvola i siste runde for å oppnå GM_norm, mens Arvola må slå Urkedal for å få IM-norm! Lie må vinne mot IM Øystein Hole for å ta GM- norm. Det er bare å glede seg til siste runde! Partiet mellom Benjamin Arvola og Rune Djurhuus var en skarp Winaver- fransk der dronningene forlot brettet nokså tidlig og et nokså likt sluttspill oppstod. Men i 25. trekk forsøkte Djurhuus et e5-brudd som var lite gjennomtenkt og snart stinket stillingen hans såpass mye at det var enkelt for Arvola å pakke stormesteren sammen og avvikle til et enkelt vunnet tårnsluttspill med to bønder mer. Den nye FM Kristian Stuvik-Holm feiret sin nye tittel med en 12 trekks remis med hvit i en bogo-indisk som ikke tilførte sjakkteorien nevneverdig nytt.

  • The World Fischer Random Chess Championship Is Now Officially Recognized by FIDE
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Oslo, April 20, 2019. The World Fischer Random Chess Championship is now officially recognized by FIDE This historic event will feature an online qualifying phase on Chess.com, beginning April 28, and is open to all players. The finals will be held in Norway this fall, with a prize fund of $375,000 USD. The International Chess Federation (FIDE) has granted the rights to host the inaugural FIDE World Fischer Random Chess Championship cycle to Dund AS, in partnership with Chess.com. And, for the first time in history, a chess world championship cycle will combine an online, open qualifier and worldwide participation with physical finals. “With FIDE’s support for Fischer Random Chess, we are happy to invite you to join the quest to become the first-ever FIDE World Fischer Random Chess Champion” said Arne Horvei, founding partner in Dund AS. “Anyone can participate online, and we are excited to see if there are any diamonds in the rough out there that could excel in this format of chess,” he said. "It is an unprecedented move that the International Chess Federation recognizes a new variety of chess, so this was a decision that required to be carefully thought out,” said FIDE president Arkady Dvorkovich, who recently visited Oslo to discuss this agreement. “But we believe that Fischer Random is a positive innovation: It injects new energies an enthusiasm into our game, but at the same time it doesn't mean a rupture with our classical chess and its tradition. It is probably for this reason that Fischer Random chess has won the favor of the chess community, including the top players and the world champion himself.
