Well, it's not always like that, Black has several improvements: 1. Anyhow, that's the inspiration. Pillsbury even found a way to impose this sort of attack on the Queen's Gambit, with the Bc1 developed actively at g5, and this idea is worth looking at one day too. Because of these improved Black lines, you don't see the Stonewall Opening much, and, since Black has also learned how to play the Queen's Win with the Stonewall Dutch Declined, you don't see the related Pillsbury formation often either. One place where the Stonewall formation will not go away is Black playing it in the Dutch Defence. Why hasn't this line died too? White, starting first, is usually trying to get an advantage and won't play just to equalise with moves Win with the Stonewall Dutch Bf4, Bxd6, Ne5 and f4. Instead, White will often adopt an attacking formation on the Queen's side to start with and so there is a Win with the Stonewall Dutch for each side to attack on opposite sides. White often plays g3 and Bg2, creating a slow game with a slightly weakened King's side. Black Win with the Stonewall Dutch hope to get the This may help explain why you see the Stonewall is a better idea played a move behind in the Dutch Defence than played Win with the Stonewall Dutch away as White. Perhaps the real reason is that World Champion Mikhail Botvinnik kept playing and winning with it for decades. Take a look at this:. Bg2 Be7 5. Nc3 O-O 6. Nf3 d5 7. O-O c6 8. Qc2 Qe8 9. Bf4 Qh5 Rad1 Nbd7 Ne5 Ng5. Nxe4 dxe4 Rxd7 Bc5 Ke2 Qh3 Kd2 Rf8 Qxf5 Rxf5 Ke1 Rf6 Nxd2 Qxd2 Nf6 when White cannot really hope to get the N to e5 ]. Nxc3 Bxc3 f4! Rfe1 Bd6 Nf1 Rf7 Nxg3 Qh4 Nf1 Nf6 Re2 Bd7 Be1 Qg5 Bg3 Bxg3 Nxg3 h5! It's rare that you get the chance to play the Stonewall and related formations in the King-pawn openings, but as you improve you will meet more players who use this 1. They are well worth knowing about, if only to enjoy these terrific games! Robert Bellin wrote a good book on the Classical Dutch which is now sadly out-of-print; otherwise you might want to consult a book like BCO2 for the latest piece placements and move orders. The Stonewall has in fact undergone something of a resurgence recently, with Win with the Stonewall Dutch GMs like Short and Yusupov adding it to their repertoire. The modern treatment for both sides has improved: Whites now know about Petrosian's idea of installing Knights on f3 and d3 where they support both White's attack and defence; similarly, players of Black have experimented with different placings of the Bishops, trying out the Bc8 on b7 Win with the Stonewall Dutch Now, if White still insists on the exchange, the time-consuming a2-a4 and Nb1xa3-c2 are necessary. With this time available, Black can think about If White hasn't met the Dutch defence before, it's likely they will just play their usual old moves: the London system, the classical system or a Gambit. The London system d2-d4, Ng1-f3, Bc1-f4 is just asking for Black to play Nc3 Nf6 4. Bg5 Be7 5. Bd3 b6 7. Nge2 Bb7 8. Bxe7 Qxe7 Ng3 Nxg3 Nf3 f5 3. Nc3 6. Bd3 Bb7 8. Qe2 Ne4 Bxe7 Nxc3 Qxf3 Nc6 White went on to win this famous ending, but according to Robert Bellin, sometime British Champion and longtime Dutch defender, Black has the advantage because of his better Pawn structure. Skip to main content. I had another think about this and the Cambridge springs and came up with the more comprehensive Playing Black against 1. That is for better players and older juniors, I think; this one is just to get you started. The Stonewall as White Reuben Fine gives this magnificent line as an example of what you are trying Win with the Stonewall Dutch do in the Stonewall system: 1. Nf3 Win with the Stonewall Dutch 7. O-O O-O 8. Nd2 Re8 Nc6 4. Nb4 5. Nc3 Bg7 8. Bg4 6. Nf3 e6 7. Nbd2 Bd6 8. Bxh3 Qxh3 Ne4 Bf3 Qe8 Nxd7 Bxd7 Kg2 Bb4 White seems to have defended more than got on with his own plans. He now makes a mistake: Rh1 Qh5 Kf1 e5 Qg3 threats Bd2 Be7 6. Nc3 c6 8. O-O O-O 9. Bf4 Qe8 Qc2 Qh5 Rae1 Nbd7 Another plan is to attack c6 with the b-pawn. Bc7 Ne8 Be5 Nxe5 Nf3 Kh8 Kh1 Ng7 Qc1 Bd7 Rg1 Nf5 Qxf4 Rg4 Qd2 Nh4 Sverre's Chess Corner: Win With the Stonewall Dutch Chess Books. And that is quite unique in the world of the Dutch Opening, I also have in my book collection the work from Aagaard,but he prefers strategies above latest developments! Nf3 Nf6 3. Bg2 d5 Win with the Stonewall Dutch. The Critical 7. Qc2, 7. Nf3: Non-Fianchetto Lines Lesson Nc3 and 2 Bg5 Lesson Nf3 and 1. I enjoyed in this book the unorthodox idea as: 1. Bg2 c6 5. Nf3 d5 6. Bb2 9. Nf3 f5 3. Bf4 Bd6 6. This is the idea of the creative Ukrainian GM. Bxd6 cxd6 gives black good control over e5 while other moves will probably transpose to standard lines. It is however a bit surprising that 6. Exciting is chapter 11 with Win with the Stonewall Dutch Staunton Gambit but it seems that black has all the fun: 1. Nc3 Nf6 4. Bg5 Nc6 5. Qd4 Nf7 7. Bxf6 exf6 8. Nxe4 f5 9. Ng3 g6 Nf3 Bg7 Qd2 b5 Bd3 c5 Ne2 Qa5! And white has a difficult position. The forward to this book comes from the great Simen Agdestein who wrote interestingly: Is the Stonewall still an opening where you can find new ideas and develop your personal style? Win with the Stonewall Dutch would definitely say yes! During the Chess Olympiad in Dresden, I propagated the opening with the rest of the Norwegian Win with the Stonewall Dutch and was happy Win with the Stonewall Dutch see Magnus Carlsen score a enterprising win with it against Rowson,while Leif Johannessen used it to secure a useful draw. A few months later Jon Ludvig Hammer too was playing the Stonewall with great effect. Conclusion: A very important reference work of the Dutch Stonewall! The master of defence and counter attack was the great Lasker and it is pleasant that Zenon Franco starts with this chess genius. Tarrasch once wrote that Lasker was simple lucky in chess but as we can learn from Zenon Franco it is more a matter of technique! Funny enough Bobby Fischer found Lasker a coffeehouse player but that is a other story! The list of modelgames is impressive under regrouping I found some great games from the legandary Tigran Petrosian the master of manoeuvring,Olafsson,Fridrik - Petrosian,Tigran V [C16] Bled Bled 11 Nc3 Bb4 4. Qg4 f5 6. Qg3 b6 7. Bd3 Nc6 9. Nge2 Bd2 Nh6 Bb5 Rdg8 Qd3 Nf7 This gives black a certain freedom of action, he has placed his pieces apparently with the idea of expanding on the kingside. Nevertheless after 14…g5 Ne4,followed by His weakness on h7 is more important than the one on g2,which can be economically defended with Nf4,incidentally hitting the other weakness on e6. There would follow Nf4 and when …. What other ideas does black have at his disposal? Nf3 c5 5. Nxd4 Ne4 7. Qf3 d6 Bg2 e5 Qe3 Nb3 Qc7 Nxc5 dxc5 Rxf4 a5 Qe7 Qe5 Qxe5 Nxe5 Be3 Nd7 Win with the Stonewall Dutch Re4 Ra6 Rb1 Rg6 Re7 b6 Bf4 h5 Be4 Re6 Rxe6 fxe6 Bd6 Rf6 Rd1 Kf7 Bf4 Kg8 Bc7 Rf7 Bg6 a4 Bxh5 Nf6 Bxb6 Ba6 Bxc5 e5 Bb4 e4 For example against the Exchange variation 1.

After: Win with the Stonewall Dutch f5 Qf1 Qh5 Rxa6 f4 MIME Attachment View The Stonewall is not a specific series of moves so much as a setup, defined by the black pawns on f5, e6, d5, and c6, against White's "closed" -- i. The white pieces could be in quite different places -- the white knight on h3, for instance, or the king's bishop not fianchettoed -- and it would still be a Stonewall. The Stonewall Dutch is not a particularly popular opening, but it is still a respected one. By his "stonewall," Black achieves something that he rarely manages Win with the Stonewall Dutch the opening: to obtain at least equal space and control of some squares in White's half of the board, particularly e4. Against this, there are -- as there must be -- some downsides. In particular, Black has weakened the dark squares by putting Win with the Stonewall Dutch of his central pawns on the light squares.

  • Hans Olav Lahlums Generelle Forhndsomtale Av Eliteklassen 2005
    Hans Olav Lahlums generelle forhåndsomtale av eliteklassen 2005 Eliteklassen 2005 tangerer fjorårets deltakerrekord på 22 spillere - og det avspeiler gledeligvis en åpenbar nivåhevning sammenlignet med situasjonen for få år tilbake. Ettersom regjerende mester GM Berge Østenstad grunnet forhåpentligvis forbigående motivasjon- og formabstinens står over årets NM, beholder eliteklassen fra Molde i 2004 statusen som historiens sterkeste. Men det er med knepen margin til årets utgave, som med seks GM-er og fem IM-er er klart sterkere enn alle utgaver fra før 2004 - og dertil historisk som den første med kvinnelig deltakelse! Hva angår kongepokalen er eksperttipsene sjeldent entydige før start i eliteklassen 2005: Kampen om førsteplassen vil ifølge de aller fleste deltakerne stå mellom den fortsatt toppratede sjakkongen GM Simen Agdestein, sjakkronprinsen GM Magnus Carlsen og vårens formmester GM Leif Erlend Johannessen. At årets Norgesmester finnes blant de tre synes overveiende sannsynlig, men at det blir akkurat de tre som står igjen på pallen til premieutdelingen er langt mindre åpenbart: Tross laber aktivitet er bunnsolide GM Einar Gausel en formidabel utfordrer i så måte, og den kronisk uberegnelige nye GM Kjetil A Lie så vel som den kronisk uberegnelige gamle GM Rune Djurhuus har også åpenbart potensiale for en medalje. I klassen for GM-nappkandidater er den formsterke IM-duoen Helge A Nordahl og Frode Elsness de mest spennende kandidatene å følge, men resultatene fra vinterens seriesjakk indikerer at eks-Norgesmester Roy Fyllingen også bør holdes under overvåkning. IM Bjarke Barth Sahl (tidligere Kristensen) har nok GM-napp, men mangler desto mer ELO på å bli GM, så feltets eldste spiller kan i år konsentrere seg om å spille for en premieplass.

    Magnus Carlsen From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search This article is about the Norwegian chess player. For people with a similar name, see Magnus Carlsson (disambiguation). Magnus Carlsen Magnus Carlsen, 2008 Full name Sven Magnus Øen Carlsen Country Norway 30 November 1990 (age 19) Born Tønsberg, Norway Title Grandmaster 2826 FIDE rating (No. 1 in the September 2010 FIDE World Rankings) Peak rating 2826 (July 2010) Sven Magnus Øen Carlsen (born 30 November 1990) is a Norwegian chess Grandmaster and chess prodigy currently ranked number one in the world on the official FIDE rating list. He has achieved the second highest ever rating exceeded only by Garry Kasparov.[1][2] On 26 April 2004 Carlsen became a Grandmaster at the age of 13 years, 148 days, making him the third-youngest Grandmaster in history. On 1 January 2010 the new FIDE rating list was published, and at the age of 19 years, 32 days he became the youngest chess player in history to be ranked world number one, breaking the record previously held by Vladimir Kramnik.[3] Carlsen is also the 2009 World blitz chess champion. His performance at the September–October 2009 Nanjing Pearl Spring tournament has been described as one of the greatest in history[4] and lifted him to an Elo rating of 2801, making him the fifth player to achieve a rating over 2800 – and aged 18 years 10 months at the time, by far the youngest to do so. Based on his rating, Carlsen has qualified for the Candidates Tournament which will determine the challenger to face World Champion Viswanathan Anand in the World Chess Championship 2012.

    Landsturneringen i Sandefjord 2012 To spillere i turneringen har 6 poeng og bare seire: Odin Nikolai Heier fra OSS i Miniputt, og Per Magnus Larsen fra Porsgrunn i Klasse 5 Bulletin nr 6 Eliten, runde 6: IM Urkedal i føringen 6. runde ble tung for svartspillerne, da hele 6 partier endte med hvit triumf, og kun GM Rune Djurhuus samlet et helpoeng med de svarte brikkene. På bord 1 møttes de to lederne. Med sin seier har nå IM Frode O.O. Urkedal inntatt toppen alene, et halvt poeng foran IM Espen Lie, som på sin side tok en litt overraskende seier over GM Jon Ludvig Hammer. På 4 poeng følger GM Simen Agdestein, som antagelig satte en stopper for GM Berge Østenstads tittelsjanser for denne gang, samt IM Frode Elsness. IM Frode O.O. Urkedal (til venstre) vant mot IM Frode Elsness, og leder nå alene. 2 Partiet mellom Urkedal og Elsness startet som Engelsk åpning og liknet etter hvert mistenkelig på Grünfeld-Indisk. Hvit konverterte en minimal fordel til seier gjennom kirurgisk presisjon og systematisk utnyttelse av unøyaktigheter fra sorts side. Espen Lie prøvde seg med en slags benoni i forhånd mot Hammer, og partiet var jevnt inntil sistnevnte forsøkte seg med et dronningoffer som etter nærmere inspeksjon fra Lie viste seg å være temmelig råttent. Hvit førte så gevinsten relativt enkelt i havn. IM Espen Lie (til venstre) slo GM Jon Ludvig Hammer NM-grossistene Adgestein og Østenstad gjennomførte et parti i balanse inntil sort lanserte et offerangrep på kongefløyen som ville vært briljant dersom det hadde lykkes, men Agdestein demonstrerte kaldt at offerkavalkaden ikke holdt vann.

  • Jon Ludvig Hammer Heisann! Nok Et År På NTG Er Over, Og Nok En Gang Er Det Vanskeligste Det Å Skrive Årbokpresentasjonen
    Forord Da var endelig årboka ferdig igjen! Og i år har jeg, (Johannes), vært redaktør. Jeg skal innrømme at ting ikke så lyst ut da jeg hadde 100 blanke ark for ikke mange dager siden og lå et par uker bak skjema, men jeg kom i mål til slutt, og resultatet må vel kunne kalles godkjent. I prosessen har det blitt noen sene kvelder og jeg har valgt å sove på noe uortodokse tider, men har kun jobbet med årboka når jeg har vært våken. Effektivitetsfaktoren har vært ganske variabel, men jeg droppet faktisk å se to av kampene i EM i fotball til fordel for årboka! Og Gud som jeg angrer når jeg hører om hva slags underholding jeg gikk glipp av i både Russland-Sverige og Tyskland-Portugal. Men må man jobbe, så må man vel jobbe. Og er det noe jeg har lært på NTG, så er det at det er veldig viktig å få fullført ting. Å komme i mål er det viktigste, så kommer kvaliteten på andreplass. Men selv om jeg har vært med på å lage noen av de tidligere årbøkene må jeg innrømme at jeg undervurderte kraftig hvor mye mengder arbeid som måtte til for å få den helt ferdig. Manglende rapporter fra diverse turer, manglende partier her og der og mangel på bilder fra diverse turer. Så da må man bare skrape sammen det man har og prøve å få tak i noe ekstra. En stor takk må jeg rette til Asbjørn Ottesen Steinskog, som har hjulpet veldig mye med å redigere bilder, tekster osv: Tusen takk! Også takk til Jon Kristian Haarr og Håkon Strand som har kommentert et par partier der det var noen mangler.

Magnus Calsen world champ since 2013 to current Sven Magnus Øen Carlsen (Norwegian: [svɛn ˈmɑ̀ŋnʉs øːn ˈkɑːlsn̩ ]; born 30 November 1990) Carlsen was born in Tønsberg, Norway, on 30 November 1990, to Sigrun Øen, a chemical engineer, and Henrik Albert Carlsen, an IT consultant. The family spent one year in Espoo, Finland, and then in Brussels, Belgium, before returning to Norway in 1998, where they lived in Lommedalen, Bærum. They later moved to Haslum. Carlsen showed an aptitude for intellectual challenges at a young age: at two years, he could solve 50-piece jigsaw puzzles; at four, he enjoyed assembling Lego sets with instructions intended for children aged 10–14. His father, a keen amateur chess player, taught him to play chess at the age of 5, although he initially showed little interest in the game. He has three sisters, and in 2010 he stated that one of the things that first motivated him to take up chess seriously was the desire to beat his elder sister at the game Carlsen was coached at the Norwegian College of Elite Sport by the country's top player, Grandmaster (GM) Simen Agdestein, who in turn cites Norwegian football manager Egil "Drillo" Olsen as a key inspiration for his coaching strategy. In 2000, Agdestein introduced Carlsen to Torbjørn Ringdal Hansen, a former Norwegian junior champion and later International Master (IM) and Grandmaster (GM), as Ringdal served a one-year siviltjeneste (an alternative civilian service programme) at the college.
