  • Schachweltmeister (Wikipedia)
    Schachweltmeister weltmeister“ wurden in Abgrenzung zur separa- ten Schachweltmeisterschaft der Frauen historisch auch als „Schachweltmeisterschaft der Männer“ be- zeichnet. Seit einer entsprechenden Klärung in den späten 1980ern steht der Titel aber generell Män- nern und Frauen offen. Beschränkt für Altersstu- fen gibt es die Juniorenweltmeisterschaft (U20), die Jugendweltmeisterschaften in den Altersklassen U8–U18 und die Seniorenweltmeisterschaft – alle ebenfalls offen für beide Geschlechter, aber auch mit eigenen Bewerben für Spielerinnen. Dazu gibt es Weltmeisterschaften im Blitzschach, Schnellschach und Fernschach. Weltmeisterschaften werden als Zweikampf über mehre- re Partien zwischen dem Weltmeister und einem Heraus- forderer ausgetragen. In den Jahren 1948 und 2007 er- mittelte man den Weltmeister dagegen durch ein Run- denturnier mit mehreren Teilnehmern. Der Herausfor- derer muss sich üblicherweise durch den Gewinn des Kandidatenturniers für den WM-Zweikampf qualifizie- ren. Eine zwischenzeitliche Trennung des Weltmeistertitels vom Weltverband FIDE seit 1993 wurde 2006 durch die Schachweltmeisterschaft 2006 behoben. Während dieser Zeit führte die FIDE Weltmeisterschaften durch, deren Sieger jedoch nicht als allgemein anerkannte Weltmeis- ter galten. 1 Die weltbesten Spieler vor Ein- führung der offiziellen Weltmeis- Oben: Logo des Weltschachbundes FIDE terschaftskämpfe Mitte: Weltmeister Michail Botwinnik 0000und Wilhelm Steinitz Unten: Schachweltmeisterschaft 2008 Der Titel Schachweltmeister ist die höchste Aus- zeichnung im Schachspiel, die – in der Regel – nach vorausgehenden Qualifikationsturnieren und schließlich durch einen Zweikampf um die Schachweltmeisterschaft vergeben wird.

    Virginia Chess Newsletter 2000- #4 1 GEORGE WASHINGTON OPEN by Mike Atkins N A COLD WINTER'S NIGHT on Dec 14, 1799, OGeorge Washington passed away on the grounds of his estate in Mt Vernon. He had gone for a tour of his property on a rainy day, fell ill, and was slowly killed by his physicians. Today the Best Western Mt Vernon hotel, site of VCF tournaments since 1996, stands only a few miles away. One wonders how George would have reacted to his name being used for a chess tournament, the George Washington Open. Eighty-seven players competed, a new record for Mt Vernon events. Designed as a one year replacement for the Fredericksburg Open, the GWO was a resounding success in its initial and perhaps not last appearance. Sitting atop the field by a good 170 points were IM Larry Kaufman (2456) and FM Emory Tate (2443). Kudos to the validity of 1 the rating system, as the final round saw these two playing on board 1, the only 4 ⁄2s.

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.
