1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Gregory Joseph, Ehud Lahav, Alik Gershon, Patricia Llaneza Vega, Lennart Ootes, Henri Koskinen, Chris Bird, Kenneth Regan, Bill Forster, Hugh Brodie and everyone else who helped with this issue.

The American Cup is coming to a close. Levon Aronian waits in the final to meet either Wesley So or Ray Robson, Irina Krush has a similar wait in the women's final. One of the major opens is also well under way, the Reykjavik Open has a very decent field. There are also many games from various Leagues which are mostly heading to their final rounds.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark
