The Lazy Najdorf from Ginger GM

1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Samuel Bielka, Graham Jurgensen, Mitko Iliev Petr Boleslav and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Fabiano Caruana looks likely to head off to the World Championship match with yet another tournament victory above Magnus Carlsen this year. Carlsen is playing right now to try and catch him but a draw looks favourite against Nakamura. Whatever happens the players will be very closely rated at the time of the match and I expect that to be reflected in the match which looks too close to call.

Saint Louis will host a chess960 "Showdown" in a couple of weeks time (11th to 14th September). People will know I'm not the greatest fan of the format but it's being given a good chance to prove its worth with high profile events. Garry Kasparov will be one of those playing taking on Veselin Topalov. For me a player who hadn't faced Kasparov before might have been more interesting but we'll see. The other matches will be Nakamura-Svidler, So-Giri, Shankland-MVL and Aronian-Dominguez.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark
