The Lazy Najdorf from Ginger GM

1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Dimitris Skyrianoglou, Hugh Brodie, Paulo Rocha, Pier Luigi Basso, Daniel Bertaccini, Ariel Fabian, Alex Holowczak, Richard Palliser and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Another very busy week. Maybe not quite as many games but at least as many problems and that's what took the time. Shahriyar Mamedyarov beat the World Champion Magnus Carlsen to win the Biel tournament and again confirm the impression that he's now one of the very, very best in the world. For Carlsen it must have been a disappointing tournament, although for him that meant clear second after a fortunate final round win against Georgiadis, we should have such problems. Yu Yangyi won the Hainan GM tournament which was very closely fought. Michael Adams won yet another British title, this time after a tie-break win against Luke McShane. Again plenty of other chess to look at.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

8) Wroclaw Open 2018

The Wroclaw Open took place 30th July to 5th August 2018 and was won by Emil Mirzoev with 7/9. On the final weekend was the Anderssen Memorial a 13 round rapid (also won by Mirzoev) followed by a knockout. I rescued some games from the swiss (but didn't sort them out into board order) but couldn't find anyone who saved the KO won by GM Alexey Kislinsky who beat IM Maciej Klekowski 2-1 in the final.
