1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Dennis Monokroussos, Ewan Green, Michiel Abeln, Sava Christiansen, Jan Mazuch, Harald Grafenhofer, Jonathan Cannon and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen has won the Tata Steel tournament in Wijk aan Zee six times, he overtook Viswanathan Anand last year. They are both tied at the top of the field after 8 of 13 rounds. Can Anand catch up again? The Gibraltar Masters start tomorrow. MVL, Aronian, Wesley So, Yu Yangyi, Nakamura and Navara are the top seeds in a field that goes deep. Much to look forward to.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

The German Bundesliga takes place 10th November 2018 to 7th April 2019. This is the strongest national chess league. The league suffered a large blow this year with the very last minute withdrawal of DJK Aufwaerts Aachen. This means there will only be 6 matches instead of 7 per round.
