Arkell's Endings from Ginger GM

TWIC Magazine

1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Paulo Rocha, John Hartmann, and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen won the Aimchess US Rapid, the last qualifying tournament before the finals at the end of this month. His opponent in the final Vladislav Artemiev hadn't had many opportunities in the series but from just three events he managed to qualify for the finals. The European Individuals saw a surprise winner in 33rd seed Anton Demchenko who just edged out 32nd seed and 16 year old Vincent Keymer. Tomorrow the Norway Chess tournament starts with Magnus Carlsen and his challenger Ian Nepomniachtchi meeting for the final time before their world championship match later in the year.

My TWIC odometer ticked over to 1400 this week and on the 17th September it will be TWIC's 27th birthday. I find it quite amazing I'm still going and that people still find the service useful after all this time. I am supporting myself with advertising (my advertisers have my extreme gratitude) and donations, with the £30 donation that gets you a copy of the TWIC database being especially popular. I don't often come right out and ask for money but these milestones do seem the right occasion. So if you do find TWIC useful and part of your weekly routine please consider donating some money to help me continue on. My Paypal address is my email address mdcrowth@btinternet.com.

Hope you enjoy this issue.
