1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Simon McNamara, Mvh Rickard, Ingemar Falk, Robert Baskin, Peter Halvarsson, Johan Berntsen, Arthur Brameld, Eduard Frey, Ehud Lahav and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Hikaru Nakamura beat Magnus Carlsen in the final of the Chess.com Speed Chess final. This is Nakamura's fifth win in a row and his first win against Magnus Carlsen. Nakamura took a 4-0 lead in the five minute portion and this set up the win. The format is based on timed 5, 3 and 1 minute segments. Some people were upset at Nakamura's time wasting at the end of the match but as far as I can tell this has long been a tactic and if he hadn't done it it would have been seen as a mistake. Carlsen and Nakamura both play the World Rapid and Blitz after Christmas. Can Nakamura translate his great speed chess form this year into over the board world titles for the first time? The 9th Sunway Sitges resumed today, a very strong open in a year that has had very few. There's also the Vugar Gashimov Memorial that continues too. Plenty of other interesting chess this week.

Everyone have a very Merry Christmas.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

38) chess.com Speed Chess 2022

The chess.com Speed Chess took place Thu 10th Nov to Sun 18th Dec 2022. Starting with two qualifying events in mid November the knockout phase of 16 players started 23rd November. Players such as Fabiano Caruana, Wesley So, Ian Nepomniachtchi, Levon Aronian, Nihal, Sarin and Anish Giri played, Nihal Sarin reached the semifinals. In the end the favourites and only previous winners of the event, Magnus Carlsen (2016-17 where he defeated Nakamura both times, in addition in 2020 Carlsen lost to MVL in the semifinals) and Hikaru Nakamura (2018-21), contested the final. Nakamura won his fifth title by beating Carlsen 14.5-13.5 in the final. The win was set up by a +4 =5 -0 start in the 5 minute section after which Carlsen was always playing catchup, although Carlsen closed the gap and after three wins in a row in the bullet it looked like he might do it, Nakamura held on in the end.
