Arkell's Endings from Ginger GM

TWIC Magazine

1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Simon McNamara, Patricia Llaneza Vega, Goran Tomic, Efstratios Grivas and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Matthias Bluebaum edged out Gabriel Sargissian on tie-break to win the European Individual Championship after both finished on 8.5/11. Ding Liren managed a last gasp win against Wei Yi in their 6 game match, he will play one more event in a few days and have 30 games in a year which will probably qualify him for the Candidates. I was shocked to see that since Covid-19 he had only played two 4 game events plus the Candidates itself - this is a career almost completely stalled due to Covid-19. Elsewhere the Reykjavik Open finally managed to return to action as well.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

The China HangZhou GM Match took place 5th to 10th April. Ding Liren won the final game to win the match. He will play a final tournament in a few days and will pass 30 games in the last year which will almost certainly net him the Candidates place that belonged to Sergey Karjakin before he got suspended.

16) Chelyabinskiy Variant 2022

The Chelyabinskiy Variant took place 31st March to 10th April 2022. It didn't look to me like the games were themed (maybe the blitz was now I look). Makarian Rudik won the open with 7.5/9. Games from the final two rounds of the A tournament and all of the B event are not available. Last week there were some B-tournament games but they have been removed.
