Otherwise the issue is a process of catching up with a number of smaller events and with Anjo Anjewierden's material from Groningen. I had intended to write something on the PCA/FIDE, but I'll put that on hold. I have lots of interviews from various sources, but we need to know what was said in Moscow. I recommend reading New in Chess (particularly issue 8 of 1994) for a good series of interviews from both sides. (in fact I recommend New in Chess anyway, its the best chess magazine I know of.) Issue 8 was sent to press prior to the Olympiad. I have built up a number of TWICs on my www site and I have the Olympiad postings. I obviously want to make these available via ftp. However it might be that they need rearranging into better order (particularly true of the Olympiad, in fact some work still needs to be done on the results because they weren't totally accurate because of the problems at the end of the Olympiad.) I haven't quite decided as to whether it will be games in one file and text in another yet. Lack of time is a problem too. Michael Niermann is trying to organise a European Events listing. Any comments/contributions should go to him. Mark Crowther 2) 57th HOOGOVENS TOURNAMENT. Wijk ann Zee. ---------------------------------------- This year's event follows the format of recent years with a 32 player knockout alongside an Open Tournament. When a player is eliminated from the knockout he is assigned a score for the open and continues to play in that event. The mini-matches are of the following format. Two standard timerate games (40 moves in 2 hours followed by 20 in 1 followed by a half hour blitz finish.) In the event of a tied match then a mini-match of two 30 minute per side games is played, followed by as many 15 minute games as is needed to provide a winner. Comments based on those of the players as translated by Frank Maximus. THE FIRST NAMED PLAYER PLAYS WHITE IN GAME 1. ROUND 1 over two games. 13, 14 Jan 1995.

I promise, by the time you solve it (if you do) you will learn something new about pawn endings. Who is the mystery GM? BTW, using computers is allowed, although about 20 plies (depending on the pawn database) is needed for the solution. +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | | | | | | | | | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | | k | | | | | | | Mystery Grandmaster +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | o | | | | | | | | W: Kg5, p.a4,d4 (3) +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | o | | | o | | | K | | B: Kb7, p.a5,a6,d5 (4) +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | + | | | + | | | | | White to move and win +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | | | | | | | | | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | | | | | | | | | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | | | | | | | | | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6) Forthcoming SuperGM Events --------------------------- FIDE Semi-Finals Sanghi Nagar Feb. 5th - Feb. 24th Linares GM Tournament (now cancelled) Feb. 28th - Mar. 18th PCA Semi-finals Kamksy/Anand Las Palmas.

Dinh arrived late to the Championships due to visa delays. He received three half-point byes for the first three rounds, and was accelerated by an extra point for rounds four and five, and half a point for rounds six and seven. Dinh drew with Ngan Koshnitsky in round 5, but from then on won every game, defeating rivals Alex Wohl and Stewart Byrne in rounds 9 and 10. Wohl's early loss in round 3 to Dick Lilly cost him dearly, and he finished half a point behind Dihn after drawing with Sam Low in Round 10. The highly rated Novag Diamond computer finished on 7, after losing to David Cordover and Sam Low in almost identical games (a bit of study paid off for Sam!) Winner of the prize for first woman was Ngan Koshnitsky on 7 points. Top Scores: Dinh Duc Trong (FM, VIE) 9; Alex Wohl (IM, Qld) 8.5; Stewart Byrne (WA), David Ellis (WA), Eu-Jin Teh (WA) 8; Jeremy Hirschhorn (NSW), John Hanks (Vic), Robert Maris (WA), Michael Salter (NSW), Henry Suryadinata (WA), Joel Harp (NSW), Sam Low (Vic) 7.5.
