1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Gianni Gigante, Mitko Iliev, Bill Townsend, Hugh Brodie, and everyone else who helped with this issue.

The USA only need to beat Canada to take the gold medal in the Olympiad for the first time since the Haifa Olympiad of 1976 and before that they dominated the 1930s with victories in 1931, 1933, 1935 and 1937. Any slip up would allow Ukraine, who are tied with them, to take the medal. Only both these teams losing would open the way for a Russian win. All to look forward to tomorrow.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

9) 138th Annual New York State Championship 2016

The 138th Annual New York State Championship took place 2nd to 5th September 2016. Aleksandr Ostrovskiy edged out David Brodsky on tie-break. My thanks to Bill Townsend for the games and the news below.

The 138th New York State Championship was held from September 2 to 5 in Colonie, a suburb of the state capitol in Albany. Overall 205 players competed in the event's five sections.

Just like last year, the winner with 5 out of 6 points was IM Aleksandr Ostovskiy. This marks Ostrovskiy's third title win. Over its long history, only five players have won the state championship more than three times: Joel Benjamin (9 times 1985-2002), Michael Rohde (5 times, 1989-2002), Eugene Delmar (4 times, 1887-1897), Anthony Santasiere (4 times, 1928-1956) and Erich Marchand (4 times, 1960-1970).

Even more remarkable was the fact that Ostovskiy lost his second round game to FM Ben Dean-Kawamura, then bounced back to win all his remaining games. On the other hand, FM Anthony Renna was the only player with 4-0 at the end of the fourth round, but lost his last two games to finish tied for fourth.

FM David Brodsky also finished with 5-1, but came in second on tiebreaks. IM Jay Bonin was all alone in third place after his round six victory over GM Michael Rohde. Fourth through eighth with 4½-1½ were FM Anthgony Renna, Lev Paciorkowski, WIM Megan Lee, FM Olivier Chiku-Ratte and Zhi Qu.

First played in 1878, the New York State Chess Championship is the oldest continuously run annual tournament in the United States and perhaps the world. The long list of champions reads like a Who's Who of American Chess from Albert Hodges and Frank Marshall in the early days to GMs Gata Kamsky and Hikaru Nakamura more recently. Also included on the list are two world champions: Jose Capablanca (1910) and Hans Berliner (1953), 5th World Correspondence Champion.

Steven Immitt along with Bill and Brenda Goichberg were tournament directors, with help from John McManus, for the New York State Chess Association.

23) 27th NATO Chess 2016

The 27th NATO Chess tournament took place 21st to 27th August 2016. I had to wait until the games and results appeared on the FIDE ratings site as the PDF files were difficult to use. Poland won the team event ahead of Germand and Denmark. Individually Finn Pedersen of Denmark scored 6.5/7 half a point clear of Mark Helbig of Germany.
