1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Rainer Polzin, Philip Feeley, Endre Vegh, Biro Sandor, Roland Wimmer and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen retained his World Chess Championship title for another two years after an anticlimactic tie-break match against Fabiano Caruana which he won 3-0. Caruana came close to saving a bad position in the first game but retained his biggest criticism for his game 2 performance. Game 3 Caruana lost trying to create some winning chances. I don't expect this to be Caruana's only World Championship match. A lot of spectators were unhappy with Rapid chess deciding the world title. I can certainly see the case for lengthening the matches again. With new leaders in FIDE there may be new thinking. But single tie-break classical games in a world championship is to my mind nuts. I don't mind this tie-break system, I do think the matches are too short and with Norway expected to host next time (maybe with some St Louis interest) it would be worth asking if these bidder might actually welcome a longer match. Carlsen has been pretty scathing about his own play saying it has stagnated in recent year. I think it hasn't been for the want in trying and hopefully we'll see Carlsen's game move forward once again, he should not be at his peak just yet.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Bundesliga 2018-19

The German Bundesliga takes place 10th November 2018 to 7th April 2019. This is the strongest national chess league. The league suffered a large blow this year with the very last minute withdrawal of DJK Aufwaerts Aachen. This means there will only be 6 matches instead of 7 per round.
