THE WEEK IN CHESS 893 19th December 2011 by Mark Crowther

1) Introduction

My thanks to Alexander Prokhorov, Roland Wimmer, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Sinisa Joksic, Miklos Orso, Thomas Henrich, Herman Van de Wynkele and everyone else who helped with the issue.

A variety of events of unusual format this week spread worldwide. Jobava Baadur won the traditional European Rapid in Warsaw. There were also similarly formated Blitz, Rapid, Blindfold and Classical events for teams in China and Doha. Also there is the Women's Team Championships in Turkey. Also there are games from various national club championships. A big variety of chess to look at. Next Monday is Boxing Day. I don't know how much chess there will be to report or whether I might postpone publication for a day. I'll play it by ear.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark
