Con Ivanchuk, Dominguez, Alekseev, Nepomniatchi, Short e Bruzon!
Si svolge dal 10 al 20 Giugno, in La Habana (Cuba),? il "Memorial Capablanca", giunto alla 45esima edizione. Il torneo Elite, che ha una media elo FIDE di 2700, vede ai nastri di partenza i vincitori delle ultime sei edizioni, l'ucraino? Vassily Ivanchuk ed il cubano Leinier Dom?nguez. Completano il lotto dei partecipanti i russi Evgeny Alekseev e Ian Nepomniachtchi, l'inglese Nigel Short e il cubano Lazaro Bruzon. Il torneo, che nell'86 e nel 87 ha visto la vittoria dell'allora argentino Carlos Garcia Palermo, promette dunque scintille, vista la notoria combattività dei partecipanti. Oltre al torneo Elite, è prevista la disputa di un altro torneo chiuso, con tra gli altri i russi Vladimir Potkin e Ildar Khairullin, e di un Open riservato ai giocatori over 2000.
Nel 1965 Bobby Fischer fu invitato a partecipare alla quarta edizione del Memorial Capablanca ma l' United State Department of State, a causa delle tensioni con Cuba, non concesse il visto per raggiungere l'Havana. Fischer, che veniva da tre anni di assenza dalle competizioni internazionali (dopo il torneo dei Candidati di Curacao), decise di partecipare comunque al torneo giocando le sue mosse che venivano trasmesse attraverso una telescrivente! Il torneo fu poi vinto dal sovietico Vasily Smyslov con 15,5 su 21, mentre l'americano giunse secondo a pari merito con Geller e Ivkov. Quasi trenta anni dopo, nel 1992, lo stesso dipartimento vietò a Fischer di giocare il match di rivincita con Spasskj in Jugoslavia, ma la reazione di Bobby fu molto meno diplomatica ...
Fischer gioca il Memorial Capablanca dal? Marshall Chess Club di New York!

update 17 settembre
Anversa, Belgio – L’InventiChess (dallo sponsor Inventi, società che opera in campo finanziario) giunge alla terza edizione con un “chiuso” di sicuro interesse. Questi i partecipanti:
GM Etienne Bacrot France 2709
GM Gabriel Sargissian Armenia 2678
GM Emil Sutovsky Israel 2676
GM Krishnan Sasikiran India 2661
GM Bartosz Socko Poland 2637
GM David Howell England 2624
GM Jan Timman The Netherlands 2588
IM Anna Muzychuk Slovenia 2542
GM Antoaneta Stefanova Bulgaria 2535
IM Bart Michiels Belgium 2451
Cat. XV. Media Elo 2610
Quindi tra i partecipanti il TopPlayer è Bacrot che ha da poco concluso un buon torneo in Canada, anche se è arrivato secondo dietro Naiditsch; Sargissian dopo l’ottimo risultato nella Politiken Cup ha ancora una volta nel mirino “quota 2700”; Sutovsky viene da un rovinoso Campionato a squadre serbo; Sasikiran invece la soglia dei 2700 l’ha già superata in passato, ma nel 2009 non ha ancora colto risultati brillanti.
 "Gabriellino" Sargissian, facile pronosticargli un ruolo da protagonista
La presenza di due ottime giocatrici, Anna Muzychuk ancora in crescita e la Stefanova già piuttosto stabilizzata ad alto livello, costituisce un ulteriore motivo d’interesse.
Il 23enne belga Bart Michiels è in cerca del titolo di GM, lui che già a 17 anni era un Over2400, ma gioca relativamente poco, probabilmente non ha ancora compiuto una scelta in senso professionistico.
Si gioca dal 18 al 26 settembre, con una cadenza 40 mosse in 90’ + 30’ per finire, sempre con 30” d’abbuono.
L’edizione del 2008 venne vinta da Bu Xiangzhi, quella del 2007 da Miroshnichenko.

8 Ding, Liren 2530
 Ding Liren, la più interessante "Rising Star" cinese del momento:ma sarà estremamente difficile per il Campione in carica cinese ripetersi:il Chess King è addirittura più forte del Campionato Cinese assoluto!
Chess Queen:
1 Hou, Yifan g 2585 1994
2 Zhao, Xue g 2542 1985
3 Ruan Lufei wg 2486 1987

Sunny Beach, Bulgaria - Sulle rive del Mar Nero si disputa l'8^ edizione del Memorial Kesarovski - Georgiev (appassionati giocatori,divulgatori e mecenati degli scacchi in Bulgaria). Il lotto dei partecipanti è capitanato da Valentin Iotov (2578) ma l'interesse degli scacchisti italiani va soprattutto alla partecipazione di Carlo Marzano, recente autore di una prestazione maiuscola all'Open di Vienna, con norma di IM sfiorata. Si gioca dal 7 al 13 settembre, nove turni con due doppi turni, il 9 e l'11.

Ningbo, Cina - La seconda edizione del Campionato del Mondo a squadre Femminile si svolge in casa della nazione detentrice del titolo. Infatti la prima edizione, che si era disputata ad Ekaterinburg in Russia, aveva visto il successo della Cina, davanti alla stessa Russia, all'Ucraina, alla Georgia e alla Polonia (dieci le nazioni partecipanti). Anche quest'anno alla manifestazione partecipano dieci nazioni, anzi nove, visto che la Cina annovera due rappresentative.
Ecco le componenti delle squadre di questa edizione:

La Cina A è la netta favorita: anche recentemente, nel match Russia-Cina, le Cinesi hanno ribadito la loro eccellenza.
Da notare tra le Top Players la mancanza, abbastanza scontata, di Koneru Humpy nell'India e di Alexandra Kosteniuk nella Russia; un po' meno scontate le assenze della Pogonina (sempre nella Russia), della Xu Yuhua (nella Cina), di Kateryna Lahno (nell'Ucraina) e di Monika Socko (nella Polonia).

Kragujevac, Serbia - Dodici giocatori con Elo pari o superiore a 2600 costituiscono il biglietto da visita di questa edizione del Campionato Serbo a squadre. Questi i Top Players (con squadra d'appartenenza e posizione di scacchiera):
1 GM Rublevsky Sergei 2703 RUS SSK SK Premier 1
2 GM Miroshnichenko Evgenij 2690 UKR Beograd Beopublikum 1
3 GM Bologan Viktor 2688 MDA Politika PEP 1

11 GM Markus Robert 2608 SRB Novosadski sah klub DDOR 3
12 GM Vuckovic Bojan 2600 SRB Beograd Beopublikum 2
 Sergei Rublevsky
La squadra favorita dovrebbe essere il VSK Sveti Nikolaj Srpski (media Elo sulle prime sei scacchiere 2581), con Ivan Sokolov in prima scacchiera e le "spalle coperte" da Ivan Ivanisevic; ma certo la Novosadski sah klub DDOR ("solo" 2580" come media Elo) non starà a guardare, con gente come Sutovsky; può inserirsi in questa lotta per il primato la SSK SK Premier di Rublevsky. Della partita anche il simpatico Nenad Aleksic, schierato in sesta scacchiera nel Radnicki, squadra guidata da Efimenko.
 Update: vince VSK Sveti Nikolaj Srpski
Si gioca dal primo all'11 settembre, prevista la diretta online sul sito ufficiale

Kolkata, India – In una delle città più orientali dell’India, meglio conosciuta come Calcutta, si disputa il 4° Kolkata Open con una partecipazione di livello elevato, guidata da Shakhriyar Mamedyarov. Ecco i giocatori Over2600:
1 GM Mamedyarov Shakhriyar AZE 2721
2 GM Short Nigel D ENG 2706
3 GM Ni Hua CHN 2692
4 GM Tkachiev Vladislav FRA 2669

12 GM Mchedlishvili Mikheil GEO 2613
13 GM Sandipan Chanda IND 2611
14 GM Le Quang Liem VIE 2602
 Shakhriyar Mamedyarov
Ritorno dunque alle competizioni a cadenza classica per Mamedyarov, dopo la polemica con Kurnosov e il suo conseguente abbandono dell’Aeroflot. Short partecipa spesso agli open indiani, vedremo se saprà confermare il suo momento di forma. Presente anche il recente Campione di Francia Tkachiev. Giocatori di vaglia e motivati, ma si sa gli open indiani nascondono sempre insidie, con giovani emergenti pronti a cogliere lo “scalpo” importante.
Il torneo si disputa dal primo settembre al 10 settembre, previsti dieci turni.
Montepremi di complessivi 20.000 dollari, di cui 6.000 riservati al primo classificato.
Update: vince Le Quang Liem!

| Desden Olympiad: The Leaders Falter In Round 9 |
ChessBase.com Report
Two major shocks pulled the two teams that had been leading all the way away from the top: Armenia lost to Israel in the open section, and the overpowering Chinese lost to Serbia in the women's section. Suddenly on this snow-covered weekend in Dresden we have Israel in the sole lead in the former and Ukraine, Poland and Serbia leading the latter section. Full illustrated report.
Round nine Open Section
The shocker was Armenia's loss to Israel, with Levon Aronian traumatically losing a rook ending to perennial Boris Gelfand. The final score was 2½:1½. Meanwhile Ukraine beat Russia, with the top three boards drawing and Alexander Morozevich losing to Zahar Efimenko. The result: Israel has taken the lead in the 38th Olympiad, with 16/19 match points, followed by Armenia and Ukraine, with 15/18 each. Behind them are China, England and Serbia, all with 14/18. Russia is in the next group of nine teams with 13/18 each.

| Israel clear first after beating Armenia |
 Anything can happen in the decisive last two rounds of the Olympiad in Dresden after Israel surprisingly but convincingly beat Armenia. The Chinese women dropped to shared 4th after losing to Ukraine, who now share first with Poland and Serbia. Round 9 report with games, results, standings and a very interesting press conference on video.
The Chess Olympiad takes place 12-25 november in Dresden, Germany. ChessVibes provides on-the-spot coverage from the venue, until the end of the tournament.
Before we go to the 9th round, first we’d like to draw your attention to yesterday’s very interesting, 45-minute press conference in which former world champions Anatoli Karpov and Alexander Khalifman were interviewed. Topics like Fischer, Olympiads, the Russian team and opening books were extensively discussed. Enjoy!
Round 9 press conference with Anatoli Karpov, Alexander Khalifman and Robert von Weiszäcker:
During the 9th round, one could see Levon Aronian using paper handkerchiefs throughout the day - he has a cold, and it might have prevented him from playing at his top level. And you really need this when you want to stand a chance against a Boris Gelfand in top shape - the Israeli GM is showing the form he was in during the world championship in Mexico last year and convincingly beat the Armenian board one, with Black.
A big blow for the Armenians, who couldn’t make up for it at the lower three boards, against an Israeli team playing without the experience of Sutovsky and Smirin, but with the energy of the young GMs Roiz and Rodshtein. The former drew with Akopian and the latter beat Petrosian, and so the match was decided; it didn’t matter that Gabriel Sargissian added another point to his massive score (now 8/9!) against Avrukh.
Another important result was Ukraina’s victory over Russia. In a wild game that shouldn’t be missed (go to the selection of games right now!) Ivanchuk and Kramnik drew, the same result as in Karjakin-Svidler and Grischuk-Eljanov (where Black drew the famous rook plus f- and h-pawn versus rook). And so Ukraine’s board four Zahar Efimenko became the match winner, beating Alexander Morozevich (who by the way has dropped from second to fifth place in the live ratings).
And so it looks like Russia is again not going to win gold at an Olympiad, despite having the highest rated players in the team. According to Karpov, the reason is that after he and Kasparov left, Russia is missing a clear leader in the team. An interesting theory that might have some truth in it…
Armenia and Ukraine are now sharing second place, one point behind Israel. The following group, on 14/9, consists of China (who beat France 1-3), England (they defeated Vietnam 1-3) and, surprisingly, Serbia. They upset Azerbaijan by drawing on the first three boards, and Bojan Vuckovic managed to beat Rauf Mammadov.
And in the women’s section, Serbia is doing even better! Yesterday they surprised everyone by winning against China. Alisa Maric’s 3…Nc6 French couldn’t to it against a patient Hou Yifan, but an even more patient Natasa Bojkovic, who went for an unambitious approach of the Ruy Lopez Exchange, simply outplayed Zhao Xue. She actually missed a quicker win (40.Qg5 is curtains).
Andjelija Stojanovic drew with Shen Yang and then Chinese hopes rested on Tan Zhongyi, who had started in Dresden with five out of five but lost her sixth game. But no, she lost again. She was better after the opening but Cheluskinja’s active play forced her to sacrifice her queen, which should have been enough for at least draw. However, after the blunder 38…Rff2 (Black is still better after 38…d4!) it was suddenly over.
For the second day in a row, the German ladies played 2-2, and again didn’t draw a single game! This time the fight was with Luxembourg, for whom this result was just great. Their first two boards Elvira Berend (2328) and Anna Waganer (2246) both won, against Elisabeth Pähtz (2471) and Ketino Kachiani-Gersinska (2371) respectively!
Both Poland and Ukraine profited from the surprising result on the top boards and share first place with Serbia now, one point ahead of China, Armenia and Georgia.
Today’s top pairings in the open section: Ukraine-Israel, Serbia-Armenia and England-China. In the women’s there’s Serbia-Ukraine, Armenia-Poland and China-Georgia. We’ll be witnessing a very exciting last two rounds of the Olympiad!

| Armenia beats France; USA women defeat Russia |
 Armenia swept France 3½-1½ and Germany lost their first match against Israel. The Chinese ladies were held to 2-2 again, this time by Ukraine, and USA beat Russia 3-1! Round 8 report with games, results, standings and the press conference on video.
The Chess Olympiad takes place 12-25 november in Dresden, Germany. ChessVibes provides on-the-spot coverage from the venue, until the end of the tournament.
Although everything is usually decided in the last two rounds of the Olympiad, Armenia are the clear favorites for gold after their crushing victory over France. Bacrot and Aronian quickly bashed out loads of theory but in their highly topical Marshall ending there was nothing new under the sun; White has an extra pawn but against Black’s bishop pair it’s impossible to convert it.
And then… Armenia just won their other three games. Akopian totally crushed Vachier-Lagrave’s irregular Najdorf with the nice 18.Bh5! and the even nicer pointe 19.Bxg6! and Sargissian easily equalized against Fressinet, who then found himself in a lost ending just a few inaccurate moves later. Tkachiev dared not to accept Petrosian’s Evans Gambit pawn (fantastic Tigran, you’re our hero!) and instead of romantically, the Frenchman went down positionally.
Germany lost their undefeated status against Israel, who have good-old Boris Gelfand on board one doing very well; currently he’s fourth on the list of best performers in Dresden. Against Germany he decided the match with the only victory, over Naiditsch.
In both sections USA and Russia played each other and in the open it was Russia who took the two match points with a 1½-2½ win. Kamsky beat Svidler, but this was more than compensated by Grischuk and Jakovenko who beat Nakamura and Akobian. After winning against The Netherlands, Vietnam continued to surprise by holding China (who left out Wang Yue) 2-2.
Much has been written about the pairing system in Dresden, but the fact that after just one upset (versus Bosnia & Herzegovina) New Zealand plays Ukraine in round 8 of an Olympiad can’t be right (with all due respect for the kiwis!). Naturally the match ended in 4-0.
Bulgaria’s 2-2 versus Belarus only increased Topalov’s chances to win gold at board one and England recovered with a small victory against Georgia thanks to a brillant Black game by Short. Carlsen’s win versus Navara shouldn’t be missed either.
Drama for the Aussies who lost a match they should have won. Zong-Yuan Zhao, David Smerdon and Stephen Solomon drew reasonably balanced games but Darryl Johansen had been considered a certain win the larger part of the match. In a totally won position he completely lost track and suddenly found himself getting mated.
Top pairings for today: Armenia-Israel, Poland-Germany, Russia-Ukraine, Serbia-Azerbaijan and France-China.
Round 8 press conference with, among others, Henrik Carlsen and blitz world champion Leinier Dominguez:
The big news in the women’s section was of course the USA blowing away Russia 3-1, shattering world champion Kosteniuk and her team’s last hopes to win the gold medal. Krush’s opening and early middlegame didn’t look very healthy, but the way Kosteniuk tried too refute it was just too bombastic. Zatonskih provided that it’s quite possible to play for a win with the Petroff and that was it - with two meaningless draws on boards 3 and 4 Russia went off and took their cold shower.
China on the other hand is comfortably cruising to gold, adding another two match points to their already impressive score by defeating Ukraine. This match was decided on board two, where Zhao Xue smashed Natalia Zhukova - husband Grischuk might have to explain some details of that Tarrasch once more.
Germany-Estonia was a fightful tie, in which all games were won by White, and Poland did a very good job with their 3-1 against Hungary. Armenia was clearly superior to Azerbaijan (4-0) and Argentina upset Czech Republic 2½-1½. Sweden beat neigbour Norway 4-0; their board one Pia Cramling is now on six out of six!
China takes up Serbia today and on board two, yes it’s true, Luxembourg plays, against Germany.

| Armenia beats Russia; Chinese women held by USA |
 In the 7th round of the Olympiad the Armenian team did very well in their efforts to win another gold medal by beating the Russian favorites 2½-1½. Still undefeated, Germany is now sharing second with Israel and France. The Chinese women dropped their first match point against the USA. Round 7 report with games, results, standings and the press conference on video.
The Chess Olympiad takes place 12-25 november in Dresden, Germany. ChessVibes provides on-the-spot coverage from the venue, until the end of the tournament.
The 7th round included the crucial match between Armenia and Russia, which was decided on board three where Sargissian beat Grischuk. In what might have been a great bit of preparation, or just an excellent over-the-board reaction to Black’s novelty 11…Nc7, White sacrificed a piece for long-term attacking chances and after he got e5-e6 in, he could comfortably play for a win. The final king march was very nice as well.
Aronian-Kramnik was a very interesting Anti-Moscow Gambit where Kramnik improved upon Aronian-Caruana, played in the first round of this Olympiad, with 13…Qf6. In a sharp ending Aronian decided to go for perpetual. Akopian used Jeroen Piket’s pet line in the Closed Ruy Lopez to draw against Svidler and Jakovenko couldn’t win a double rook ending with an extra a-pawn - something that’s usually won with just one pair of rooks.
Despite Naiditsch’s first loss, against Nisipeanu, Germany stayed undefeated and actually beat Romania 2½-1½. Gustafsson improved upon his game of last month against Sargissian and then easily refuted Istratescu’s piece sac and Baramidze played a great game where his opponent Vajda was just blow away after the opening, and especially after eating the poisened pawn on f5.
Round 7 press conference with, among others, Fabiano Caruana and Jan Gustafsson:
China and Ukraine shared match points with four draws and France and Israel fought themselves up the special stage by beating India and Spain respectively. USA beat Hungary (who decided to leave out Polgar) and will face Russia today. France takes up Armenia on the top boards and Israel will play the Germans. (Oh, and by the way round 7 included quite an upset on board 15 where New Zealand beat Bosnia & Herzegovina 2½-1½!)
The Chinese ladies lost their first match point in this Olympiad against the US ladies; Hou Yifan did win on one against Krush but top scorer Tan Zhongyi lost to Katerina Rohonyan. Both Germany-Italy and Russia-Poland were hard-fought 2-2’s but Ukraine crushed The Netherlands to take over clear second place with 12 out of 7, behind China’s 13/7.
