THE WEEK IN CHESS 879 12th September 2011 by Mark Crowther

1) Introduction

My thanks to Alexander Prokhorov, Roland Wimmer, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Jack Peters, Frank Berry, Miklos Orso, Georgios Souleidis and everyone else who helped with the issue.

The World Cup reaches the semi-finals, a Russia vs Ukraine battle. One couldn't even start to name a favourite amongst the very experienced grandmasters left. We're well into September and things haven't eased off so a load more games from summer chess festivals. Not much fun for me I'm afraid. I'm really looking forward to (apart from going to bed right now) a return to a normal number of games per week and especially not coverting PGN files in Cyrillic to something useful for a while.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

2) FIDE World Cup 2011

After all the struggles we end up with a semi-final pairing very close to the World Championship of 2001-2 held in the same format. Peter Svidler again plays Ruslan Ponomariov. Vassily Ivanchuk is there again, this time facing Alexander Grischuk instead of current World Champion Viswanathan Anand. This battle of Ukraine vs Russia is impossible to call, especially after two draws today.

10) Kings vs Queens

The Kings vs Queens event in Saint Louis has again live video broadcasting. Sadly for them the late withdrawals of Judit Polgar (World Cup progression) an Anatoly Karpov (launch of a political career) reduced the importance. I'm not a fan of chess960 (and neither is Judit Polgar as revealed in a press conference) so I give the rapid games only (plus many programs can't play through the games of this chess variant). Personally my major objection is that the starting positions are just ugly. If you want to change chess I say find a variant with more pieces but with a aesthetic starting position.

13) VII Ugra Governor's Cup

The VII Ugra Governor's Cup took place alongside the World Cup 31st August - 11th September. Standings and PGN files were in Cyrillic. I converted the games but buggered if I'm doing the table, I doubt even Russian players prefer PGN in Cyrillic. Hopefully the conversion worked out OK but it is a long winded and error friendly process. Pavel Ponkratov took clear first with 7.5/9.

Chinese League 2011

The Chinese League started 12th April. This week saw rounds 10-12: 10th-12th July. This year has been a bit of a mess after last year's clear coverage. They change the dates from those shown in chess results so it just turned up this week, the live coverage has broken down for the second successive batch of matches (round 12) and the archive Chinese League Games hasn't been updated (maybe there is an archive elsewhere). Allegedly the next rounds are 13-15 in Qingdao on 26th-28th October, but who knows, at this stage they seem to be making things up as they go along.
