  • 6Th London Chess Classic (6-14 December 2014)
    6TH LONDON CHESS CLASSIC (6-14 DECEMBER 2014) CLASSIC ROUND 4: 14 DECEMBER 2014 YOU’VE JUST BEEN SPACEBARRED With one round to go (starting at 2pm on Sunday), the Classic is nicely poised with five of the six players still able to finish first. Round four featured just the one decisive result, with Hikaru Nakamura beating Mickey Adams, which makes the scores as follows: Kramnik and Giri 6, Nakamura 5, Anand and Adams 4, Caruana 3. One of the great things about an international chess tournament is the exchange of ideas between people from different countries and cultures. From the beginning, the London Chess Classic has placed a great deal of importance on invitees putting in as positive a performance in the commentary room as they do at the board. Top chessplayers are highly intelligent people and have quickly realised that their livelihood depends as much on their ability to communicate as to play good moves. Consequently we now have a young generation of players with the confidence to innovate off the board linguistically as well as on it. Not just those who have English as their first language, either. It’s gratifying for us native Brits to have our language adopted worldwide as the first language of chess, but perhaps a bit scary too. As with our other notable export, football, where we have had to learn to endure other countries playing it a lot better than we do, we now have to live with people from non-English speaking countries being more articulate and creative in English than we are.

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.

  • The Day of Miracles. Kramnik Took the Lead. Prestige Goal by Ivanchuk. This
    The day of miracles. Kramnik took the lead. Prestige goal by Ivanchuk. This are not the whole list of headlines after round 12 in Candidates Tournament in London. Long Friday was really long Friday. For the first time in the tournament absolutely all games finished after first time control and 40 moves. Today I will continue with ecologically clean annotations (Totally without computer analyzes) “online” comments by IM &FT Vladimir Poley. Text of the games you can find on organisers home page. Pairs of the day: Magnus Carlsen –Vasily Ivanchuk Levon Aroian – Vladimir Kramnik Teimour Radjabov – Alexander Grischuk Boris Gelfand-Peter Svidler Magnus avoid Rossolimo today and said straight no to Cheljabinsk (Sveshnikov) variation by 3.Nc3. Vasily after 5 minutes thought decided to transfer his Sicilian defense into Taimanov variation, old and solid version. Alternative was 3...e5, but this can lead after transformation into “The Spanish torture” where Magnus feels like fish in the water. Kramnik chosen improved Tarrash defense against Aronian. The difference from normal Tarrash- is no isolated pawn on d5. Radjabov-Grischuk- easy going with draw reputation Queens Gambit variation, probably quickpeace agreement. Both players lost chances and not enough motivated. Gelfand plays anti-Grunfeld variation. To go into the main lines against biggest Grunfeld expert Svidler was not an option. Boris will look for fishy on sides. Grischuk invites to some pawns capture for advantage in development in return and started to shake the boat. I don’t believe that Teimour will accept the gifts. Just normal Nf3 will be good neutral response. Aronian decided to get isolany himself.

  • 6Th London Chess Classic (6-14 December 2014)
    6TH LONDON CHESS CLASSIC (6-14 DECEMBER 2014) SUPER RAPIDPLAY OPEN (ROUNDS 9-10) - 7 DECEMBER 2014 Hikaru Nakamura of the USA won the London Super Rapidplay Open with an outstanding score of 9½/10, having conceded just the one draw in the sixth round to Matthew Sadler. Second on his own, a full point behind Nakamura on 8½, was Anish Giri of the Netherlands. Ten players shared third place on 8 points: Fabiano Caruana (Italy), Vishy Anand (India), Vladimir Kramnik (Russia), Nigel Short, Nick Pert and Simon Williams (all England), Alex Lenderman and Daniel Naroditsky (both USA), Eric Hansen (Canada), and Alon Greenfeld (Israel). It was a remarkable event, and needed a remarkable winner. It got one: on the Sunday Hikaru was close to unplayable, with a powerful 4/4 finish including the scalps of four of his elite London Chess Classic rivals (note in all diaries: the Classic starts Wednesday). Mickey Adams, Anish Giri, Fabiano Caruana and Vishy Anand all lowered their colours before Hikaru. Only Vladimir Kramnik escaped him, if only because he didn’t play him – although he did last year. Cast your mind back a year and you will recall that Vlad was Hikaru’s swindle victim in the semi-final of the 2013 London Classic Super 16. Hikaru went on to defeat Boris Gelfand in the final, so this is his second successive victory in this format of the game. Hikaru’s runaway rapidplay has added spice to this year’s Classic: you can be sure that all five of his rivals will be out for revenge.

  • 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.
