1) Introduction

My thanks to Roland Wimmer, Olexandr Prohorov, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Miklos Orso, Mahdipour Reza, Dave Clayton,, Mitko Iliev, Adam Raoof, Jan Mazuch, Pablo Iglesias, Paulo Rocha, Pedro Alberdi, Tammy Hyde, Vladimir Talla and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen won the 11th game of the World Chess Championship in Sochi against Viswanathan Anand to retain his title now for another two years. Anand said that he did some things better and other things worse than last year but his main problem was that Carlsen is so punishing in certain kinds of position that Anand had to be very disciplined throughout the match and when he finally felt he might have an opportunity to get on level terms in game 11 he overplayed his hand. If this is to be Anand's last appearance in a World Championship match he did all that he could and performed very creditably. Anand is still a very strong player and I expect him to continue for at least a few more years at the top of chess as befits an all time great player. He won't have to play Carlsen all the time.

As for Carlsen I feel this has been a rather strange year, the quick defence after 11 months did him no favours and he didn't seem to have much time to settle into the title before having to defend it. I feel he can only improve from here after a year of stagnation, the uncomfortable times he had in the openings will surely be addressed. I look forward to his return in January in Wijk aan Zee. Anand returns even sooner in the London Chess Classic at the start of December. This week the Qatar Open and Russian Superfinal both start. These keep the top class chess coming.

TWIC turned 20 on September 17th. You can read my article 20 years of TWIC. which includes a full listing of all issues including all the texts. I have all the PGNs but that's a very large file but a ChessBase cbv archive format can be bought for £30 which will help me head out from this landmark. The cost of TWIC is basically my wage so any support would be very welcome as it's very tough surviving on pure advertising, although that has been essential too and I thank them too.

If you also wish to donate to help me keep TWIC going and move it forward then you can do so via PayPal at:

Send a £30 donation via Paypal and contact me via email (Email Mark Crowther - mdcrowth@btinternet.com) I'll send you an address for a ChessBase cbv file of my personal copy of every issue of the games in one database.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Bundesliga 2014-15

The very strong German Schachbundesliga takes place Sat 18th Oct 2014 to Sun 12th Apr 2015. The next rounds are Friday 7th November for the first of the split round 7 (a retrograde step in my view, rather than finishing with three rounds they split one round in this very untidy way I can only think that there are financial considerations) and November 8th and 9th for rounds 3-4.
