1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Jonathan Cannon, Patricia Llaneza Vega, Rainer Polzin, Nicolas Brunner, Roland Wimmer, Lennart Ootes, Paul Macklin, John Hartmann and everyone else who helped with this issue.

43 year old Kaido Kulaots won the Aeroflot open, not a fluke as he had a tough draw and he beat rising stars Parham Maghsoodloo and Alireza Firouzja along with Daniil Dubov, Wei Yi and in the last round Denis Khismatullin. I think this result made a lot of people happy, it's great to see someone achieve a surprise career high. The Bundesliga weekend was a difficult one for defending champions Baden Baden, they put out a star studded side including Caruana and Anand but had just one narrow win and two draws, hardly what they were looking for. They still lead but it's very close with SG Solingen on the same number of match points with four rounds to go. The World Team Championship starts tomorrow in Astana, also worth mentioning is the Prague International Masters the following day, also with a very nice field. Just time to mention the St Louis Spring Classic with Vassily Ivanchuk and the Batavia tournament with an experimental format (although the standard scoring applies for official purposes).

Hope you enjoy this issue.

6) 11th dMP Batavia Chess 2019

The 11th dMP Batavia Chess takes place 1st to 10th March 2019. Players: David Arutinian, Max Warmerdam, Arthur Pijpers, Simon K Williams, Stefan Kuipers, Koen Leenhouts, Rick Lahaye, John T.H.Van der Wiel, Lopez Jasel, Felix Meissner. Each day starts with blitz games. The idea was to produce draw odds for one player in the main classical game but this fell afoul of FIDE regulations so it will only be for unofficial standings.

The 51st Belgrade WGM was announced as taking place 3rd to 11th March but I see no sign it has started. It would be a pity to lose an event after such a long time. News on the Chess Federation of Belgrade website suggests to me they are in some turmoil.
