Tsorbatzoglou, Mehrdad Pahlevanzadeh, Olimpiu G. Urcan, Ilgar Bajarani, Mikhail
Golubev and everyone else who helped with the issue.
The World Championships enter their final week and unless something
quite astonishing happens Viswanathan Anand will realise his ambition of being
undisputed World Champion. This eleven years after losing to Gary Kasparov in a
match where it looked at the start like he might have the measure of the great
champion. He did of course win the FIDE title but to win this would be
certainly the pinnacle with a match against Kramnik next year to come.
Hopefully I haven't missed too much out this week but the schedule of games in
Mexico City is seriously starting to catch up with me!
Hope you enjoy this issue.
Mark
The World Chess Championship Tournament takes place in Mexico City
13th-30th September 2007.
Viswanathan Anand is on the verge of taking the World Championships in
Mexico City. He had two wins and three draws in the week. World Champion
Vladimir Kramnik got bogged down with four draws and then when he went for it
against Alexander Morozevich he lost. A point behind Anand is surprise package
Boris Gelfand but the pressure may have got to him too and he blundered an
ending away against Alexander Grischuk late last night. As I write Kramnik has
white against Anand in what is a must win game for him and after 28 moves Anand
looks fine but I'm a real hostage to fortune writing about this at this
moment.

Gibtelecom Chess Festival 2008
The 6th edition of Gibraltar's Gibtelecom Chess Festival will be held
from 22nd-31st January 2008 at the Caleta Hotel, one of Gibraltar's best
hotels. In previous years players of the quality of Alexei Shirov, Michael
Adams and Nigel Short have played in the Masters section. Usually the Masters
field includes at least 30 grandmasters. In 2008 the first prize in the Masters
has gone up to £12,000 and the tournament is so strong at the top that it
even offers a £2,000 prize for the best score by a player rated under
2600 (we think that might be unique worldwide) as well as the same amount for
other rating categories down to sub-2200. There is also big money to be won in
the Under 2250 (£1,500 first prize) and Under 1850 (£1,000 first
prize) events. Even the relatively light-hearted evening events (which cost
nothing to enter) have a combined prize fund of £1,200.
