1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Mikhail Golubev, David Navara and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen did win the 7th Norway Chess tournament securing first place with a round to spare. Carlsen's final day was a little shakey against Fabiano Caruana, he was lucky to escape in the standard game but was finally defeated in an Armageddon game. Aleksandra Goryachkina will challenge Ju Wenjun for her Women's World Chess Championship after convincingly winning the Candidates tournament, only in the very final round with everything settled was she finally defeated. Vladislav Artemiev edged out Dmtry Jakovenko to win the 20th Karpov tournament in Poikovsky, Plenty to look at as we head into the summer festival season.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

25) Armageddon: Chess for Television 2019

A World Chess event that took place 10th to 16th June 2019. Sergey Karjakin beat Ian Nepomniachtchi in the final but I can't say I understood why there were 5 games. There was also a double elimination format earlier in the tournament. I like my events to be simple with little or no explanation required. Most likely you'd have to watch the TV programs to understand the format.
